AI ... good or bad?! We aren't quite sure yet, but it's been a hot topic in our studio lately.
Tracey Spicer is much more informed. We were so thrilled to have her record her new book MAN-MADE with us.
Out now and well worth the listen!

Walkley Award-winning journalist Tracey Spicer exposes the next frontier of feminism. Man-Made aims to open listeners’ eyes to a transformative technological shift in society and give them the tools to make positive change.

`Mum, I want a robot slave.’
Broadcaster Tracey Spicer had an epiphany when her young son uttered these six words. Suddenly, her life’s work fighting inequality seemed futile. What’s the point in agitating to change the present, if bigotry is being embedded into our futures?

And so began a quest to uncover who was responsible and hold them to account. Who is the ultimate villain? Big Tech, whose titans refuse to spend money to fix the problem? The world’s politicians, who lack the will to legislate? Or should we all be walking into a hall of mirrors and taking a good, hard look at ourselves…?

This is a deeply researched, illuminating and gripping ride into an uncertain future, culminating in a resounding call to action that will shake the tech sector to its foundations.

Vale Barry Humphries. One of the greats 💔

Fairy lights on… what a year, huh? 🎄

Essential listening.
Such a privilege to get to work with Jess Hill on the audio version of her Quarterly Essay for Audible. THE RECKONING - How is changing Australia.
Timely, important and powerfully written.


‘In 2021, Australia saw rage and revelation as powered an insurgency against sexism and sexual violence. From once isolated survivors to political staffers, women everywhere were refusing to keep men’s secrets.

In this electrifying essay, Jess Hill traces the conditions that gave birth to and tells the stories of women who – often at great personal cost – found themselves at the centre of this movement. Hill exposes the networks of backlash against them – in government, media, schools and in our national psyche. This is a powerful essay about shame, secrecy and, most of all, a revolutionary movement for accountability.’ - OUT NOW via Audible.

No narcotics were consumed during the production of this audiobook. They said.
'Pure Narco' by Jesse Fink and Luis Navia is one mans true story of 25 years inside the cartels. This one has it all... co***ne trafficking for the biggest cartels in Columbia and Mexico, a beheading, kidnapping and nearly being fed to crocodiles.
Audiobook narrated by the master of characters Keith Scott - we highly recommend this one (no pun intended) 🎤🎧📚
