Erik Jensen is an award-winning journalist, biographer, screenwriter and poet. He is the founding editor of The Saturday Paper and editor-in-chief of Schwartz Media. He's written a bunch of incredible books and it's very likely he spells "friend" correctly in all of them. On today's episode, Erik talks about struggling to make friends as a child, Nan School, being almost exclusively friends with older ladies, making friends with people from magazines, cold-calling people out of the phone book, losing a dear friend, writing letters, and an unforgettable story about "cooking your emotions".

Ben Lee began his career as a young teenager in the early 90’s, in the Australian lo-fi punk band Noise Addict, who were discovered by Sonic Youth and the Beastie Boys. That began an extraordinary career that has been both eclectic and eccentric. Ben has put out over 20 solo albums that have made romantics swoon for multiple generations and catapulted him to national treasure status. But enough of all that, we're here to talk about fwendship! In this episode, Ben talks about being occasionally guilty of fair-weather friendship, of friendship within cults, setting friendships loose, World Expo 88, showbiz superfriends, the necessity for admiration in friendship, friendship in family, and his perpetual search for romance in all things.CONTACTText - 0431 345 145Email - [email protected] - PO Box 24144, Melbourne, Vic, 3001RATE AND REVIEWOf course you've already subscribed or followed the show, now we'd love you to leave a rating and a review.

With an effortless ability to turn low-key yarns into high-stake rollercoasters, Geraldine Hickey is one of Australia’s most beloved stand-up comedians. She's also our great mate. She's won loads of awards and you've definitely seen her on the telly.

Gillian Cosgriff is a multi-award-winning actor, singer, writer, musician, composer and comedian. She is also an absolutely world-class friend. In this episode Rhys, Kyran, Georgia & Gill discuss sibling friendships, read receipts (hell), long-distance friends, homemade plays, school reunion revelations, fringe friends, pandemic bonding and chair theory. We also wax lyrical about two national treasures, Cal Wilson and Virginia Gay.CONTACTText - 0431 345 145Email - [email protected] - PO Box 24144, Melbourne, Vic, 3001RATE AND REVIEWOf course you've already subscribed or followed the show, now we'd love you to leave a rating and a review.

Zachary Ruane is best known as one-third of the global comedy phenomenon, Aunty Donna. In his own right, he's a comedian, a writer, an actor, and a world class artiste of the noblest of all pursuits, podcasting. In this episode, Zac talks with hilarious candour (and mild panic) about reaching one's mid-30s and wondering what friendship is supposed to look like. Let's just say the question "are you a good friend?" really takes off. He also pontificates about forming Aunty Donna before they were friends, about the fine line between friendship and podcasting, about the purity of friendship between man and dog, and so much more.Plus, while Rhys is tragically absent, Georgia & Kyran catch up in the intro, covering political campaigning, female wrestling, democracy sausages, a songwriting sabbatical, the weather, and a potential new segment "what has [insert name of host] missed?"CONTACTText - 0431 345 145Email - [email protected] - PO Box 24144, Melbourne, Vic, 3001RATE AND REVIEWOf course you've already subscribed or followed the show, now we'd love you to leave a rating and a review.
