The Maccas jingle?
If you heard it in Australia, Blair played it.
Same guy.
Not only that Blair is one of the hosts of Top Gear Australia, and alongside JLP and Beau Ryan they are taking this legendary show that was never really about cars and turning it on its head.

Think for a moment, what would happen if you had a dream career, pilot, engineer, drummer - and your family absolutely did not back you in what you were trying to achieve.
You’re a teenager.
They have your best interests at heart, they love you and just want success for you, but you might have other ideas.
Would you try anyway?
That’s pretty much what happened with Ada Nicodemou. For 31 years she’s been on Australian screens, and now she’s on our bookshelves with the release of a new series of books titled “Mia Megastar”, aimed kids 8 and up.
Today she speaks with Osher about her path to success, what keeps her successful, and why books are so important for growing minds.

A few highlights from when Osher spoke with Sylvia Jefferies, an incredibly accomplished journalist and presenter, originally from Brisbane Australia.
Sylvia has a matter-of-fact, get-after-it vibe about her which makes the career success she’s had make perfect sense.
Sylvia is very open about how she juggles family life and home life, also how she has found particularly interesting ways to deliberately work emotional regulation into her day so she’s able to go back home to her kids after a day exposing herself to the unedited grim realities of the world.

Here’s Osher’s three favourite facts about Dr Matt Agnew:
He’s not that kind of doctor. He’s lovely. He has a PhD in Astrophysics.Matt has been busy, heading back to uni to study AI - and on the back of that he’s written a new book “IS MY PHONE READING MY MIND?”
What he has to say today about AI, about the powerfully transformative effect it is already having on education, and democracy - in both positive and negative ways - might just chill you to the bone and give you goosebumps at the same time.
This was recorded a week out from the 2024 US election, so please understand why I’m Osher isn’t commenting on something which is now glaringly obvious to us as a community.
He’s in the past.
It’s simple time travel.
And there’s no better person to speak to about that than Dr Matt Agnew.
Enjoy the show.

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.

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.

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.
