George R.R Martin reviews GOT porn "Game of Bones"
in Film, Interviews, The Feed, SBS
Happy Game of Thrones day. Still one of my all time favourite moments in an interview. Back in 2013 I sat down with the creator of the megahit Game of Thrones and discovered that when George R. R. Martin started writing the books back in 1991 he had no idea what a cult phenomenon it would become both on the page and in the HBO TV series.
He also talks about Piracy and why he actually NEEDS fans to help write the books.
Can Mushrooms Solve World Hunger? Meet utter legend Chido Govera
in Interviews, Food, SBS, The Feed
This is Chido Govera. By the age of 11 she had already lost her mother to AIDs, become primary care-giver to her toddler brother, turned down an offer to marry a 36yo man and survived horrific abuse. Then she learned how to turn agricultural waste into mushrooms and suddenly this orphan girl became the most important person in the village. The power dynamics and the economics were thrown into complete disarray. If you like awesome women, doing awesome things, awesomely you should watch this.

Lockout Laws: Feed Forum
in Interviews, SBS, The Feed
Are the lockout laws working?
Are we saving lives but sacrificing jobs?
Can Sydney be a vibrant international tourist destination if our streets aren't safe?
Are we all being made to pay for a few people's mistakes?
Last month thousands took to the streets to protest against the lockout laws, while a Facebook post on the subject by State Premier Mike Baird drew over 15,000 heated responses.
Now, with Queensland about to adopt similar legislation, the controversy is bound to spread even further.

The Price of K-Pop Stardom: JJCC's Prince Mak
in Interviews, music, SBS, The Feed
Never in a million years would I have truly understood the work ethic that goes into being a pop star until I sat down with Henry "Prince" Mak. Mak had a fairly normal childhood growing up in western Sydney. And then, he ran away to China to try his hand at the music world. Now better known as Prince Mak - one fifth of K-pop group JJCC - the 25-year-old has a profoundly life from the one he left behind in Australia.
