The secret to a long relationship (as long as it’s with other members of Grinspoon) w Phil Jamieson 27.08.2024 59:26
If you’re in a long-term relationship, chances are at some point you’ve at least explored ways that you can navigate things when you disagree.

What do you get if you crush joy, dance, comedy and fashion in a hydraulic press? Visual Artist SMAC 20.08.2024 1:05:51
Osher talks a lot about how important it is to be playful in your work, and how important it is to fully commit.

Doing The Dishes with Napalm Death (aka a way to use music to focus like never before) 08.08.2024 17:30
The other day when Bernard Fanning and Paul Dempsey were here, we touched on something dear to my heart - using music as a way to enhance your day. I’ve used music as a tool for as long as I can remember. To shift mood states, to help me remember things, and to concentrate. It’s the last one that had me thinking a bit - and it’s something I wanted to share with you in the hope it might be useful...
