Gazette hosts Ross and Julian celebrate reaching the milestone of ten episodes with a chat about nothing in particular, but traversing topics like why do people carry dogs, is it a good idea to sit inside while your house is being painted by Michael, are Queenslanders annoying, and is it a good idea to go a long way under the water in a submarine built in someone’s backyard.

The Giblets catch up with Superjesus frontwoman Sarah McLeod to discuss why the band has never talked about the reasons they split the first time, how angry religious folk protested outside their gigs in the US, and how the death of one of their most passionate fans affected the band.
We also learn how Superjesus spent a lot of money and time on what Sarah thought was a ripper film clip, but the record company shelved it. It involved digging big holes in the ground and lowering the band members into the holes using mechanical devices. It was replaced by a film clip featuring a disinterested crowd watching a Superjesus gig. I guess that's why the record execs are paid the big bucks.
Also discussed - how the breakup of Sarah's relationship derailed Superjesus's plans to conquer America, whether you need to have read Jane Eyre to perform in a play about Jane Eyre, and how Sarah taught herself piano during Covid lockdowns.
There is general hilarity at the expense of Ross, and his claim that the Superjesus song, Gravity, is on his running playlist. It's suggested it mustn't get played often.
It’s a cracking podcast. Check out the Superjesus website here. And the band are about to go on tour. Check dates here

The Giblets catch up with Australian guitar legend Nathan Cavaleri for a very frank and open discussion about his career, his battles with mental health, and how it taught him a lot about his friends.
Before he even became a teenager, Nathan was a household name because of his prodigious talent with a guitar. But his journey there had been tough - aged just six he was diagnosed with leukaemia. But every cloud has a silver lining - the Starlight Foundation was able to grant Nathan's wish to jam with Dire Straits legend, Mark Knopfler, and the rest is history.
But of course it wasn't. Nathan turned his back on his talent and his career to become a brickie's labourer, and then spiralled into all sorts of mental health battles.
Nathan talks openly and frankly about his battles, and his road to today, on this episode of the Gazette. And he talks passionately about his latest album, Miracles, and his upcoming tour kicking off next month.
