I might have a story for you - with Matt Levinson

Lynn Dang - tech leader - ep 5

Lynn Dang is a tech leader, with long stints at computing giants Microsoft and IBM, and a mentor to many through her roles with Australia for UNHCR, SheEO and others. She’s passionate, focused, with a powerful influence. Exactly the sort of person you’d hope would be shaping the talent pipeline for a major tech company. And at least part of that strength and empathy stems from her family’s escape from Vietnam when Lynn was four years old.

Cam Webb - music maker and scientist - ep 4

Cam Webb’s band Seaworthy make music that’s quintessentially Australian - like the Go Betweens’ Cattle & Cane, Ed Kuepper’s Electrical Storm or Warumpi Band’s My Island Home - and he's one of the country's science stars, studying mosquitoes, which puts him at the intersection of some of the biggest issues we face. He's someone I’ve always wanted to get to know better.

Kaylene Milner - founder / music maker - ep 3

Kaylene Milner was an eisteddfod kid who now plays drums in post punk band Loose Fit. She achieved the ultimate entree to Sydney’s fashion world, but now makes knitted band jumpers as Wah Wah. Straddling DIY culture and high end fashion, she’s a deep thinker on the business of creativity.

Nik Robinson – founder

Nik's won stacks of advertising awards, hosted a show on Triple M that was in the papers every week, he’s changed the sunglasses business and he’s teaching the next gen of designers at UTS. He's driven by purpose, skilled and deliberate about the work of storytelling. Plus he has a lot of nerve.

Lee Tran Lam – food writer - ep 2

Lee Tran’s not just an excellent eating companion or even an oracle to the best places to eat (both true), in a real way she’s changed the culture around food in Sydney – she's almost certainly the only person I’ll ever meet who’s had a sandwich named after her.
