So exciting for me personally to be a guest on Radio National’s Download This Show - Legit it was one of the first podcasts I ever downloaded onto my iPod back in the day when I was studying radio, so thanks @raejohnston.bsky.social for having me!

Watching Solo for the first time (late, I know) and I need to know what animal/species Han’s fur coat is made from.

Unsurprisingly (thanks AI), Google is useless.

Fellow BlueSky nerds, you’re my only hope…

Ahhhhh so I just met a woman who listens to Download This Show and Weird Tech while she runs.

She told me hearing my voice, even now out of context, triggered a need to exercise that surprised her.

I am Pavlov, and my podcasts are the bell.

Serious question for people who watch videos on public transport/flights without headphones:

Why are you like this?

Enjoying tuning in to @raejohnston.bsky.social's first ABC Sydney shift and realising that between myself, @doctornic.bsky.social and Rae the Australian games journalism to ABC radio host pipeline is very real

Harvesting some carrots, listening to black cockatoos squawking overhead, watching bowerbirds eat my beanstalk leaves, belly full of french toast.

This is NORMAL for me these days. Unreal 🤎

After the peace not posting on Twitter for a few years brought to my life, @jiggsy2point0.bsky.social convinced me it is actually worth being here and won’t destroy my mental health so here I am how y’all doing
