What it's like to be Hamish Blake for a job
22:52|Hamish Blake is genuinely one of the most remarkable people I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. His achievements in both his career and personal life are truly impressive, but what really stands out is the kind of person he is. You might recognize him from his iconic national radio show and podcast, Hamish and Andy, or from his appearances on TV, sometimes working with Lego. He’s a true all-rounder, and I’m thrilled to be able to share this conversation with you.

01:11:01|Dannii Minogue is a singer, actress, business woman and all-around showbiz machine. It’s no secret that Osher is enormously influenced by Dannii’s work ethic, business sense and outlook on life. In this rare podcast appearance, Dannii opens up to Osher about the “how” of her career - and in doing so provides an incredible field guide to a life lived with purpose.

01:02:15|When was the last time you got a raise? What about the last time you advocated for a raise? If you’re a man like Osher it’s one thing - however It’s a very different story for women in the workforce, and the gap between what men and women get paid for the same job in our country is 12%. That is not insignificant. Thankfully, Meggie Palmer is here to help. A former foreign correspondent, she now heads the tech startup PepTalkHer.com - a platform deigned to help women in the workforce advocate for themselves around better conditions, a better career path and ultimately better pay. Meggie is an absolute powerhouse. Osher caught up with her across the Pacific from where she lives in Brooklyn and this conversation will have you rearing to go when it comes to my next negotiation.

01:01:14|Michael Klim is one of the most physically recognisable athletes in our country. His unmistakable statuesque figure can be spotted from across a footy field, long ways.When you saw him, you’d recognise him instantly - and then think…Hang on, is he walking with a cane? Michael Klim is everything Osher’s podcast is about. He’s a man who, when faced with immense adversity - eventually found his way to acceptance and action. Sure, there were bumps in the road - but it’s important to hear that no success is linear. Michael is a truly joyful man, despite the immense physical challenges he currently faces. Michael’s new book KLIM is out right now, and it is more than a sporting memoir. It’s a courageous look into what it costs to be the best, and what it takes to meet the kind of challenges you and I would never dream of facing - in or out of the pool.

56:47|For over 25 years, Welsh journalist Jon Ronson has been spending time with the absolute fringes of our communities. He gets so deep in with these people, to truly humanize them. Which is useful, especially that time he was outed as a Jew in the middle of a jihadi training camp. One of Jon’s most famous books is called “The Psychopath Test” - and he’s touring a live event to Australia before the end of the year. It’s the chance to spend an evening with someone who’s spent his evenings with the most extreme, terrifying, ideological humans on the planet. Sign up to the Better Than Yesterday newsletter here.
