Wow… my mind is BLOWN! 4 years later and we hit 200 episodes of the Hot & Delicious: Rocks The Planet! podcast!

This week I have special guest RateBeer Craft Beer App Owner Joe Tucker on the show as they introduce their app into the Australian market launch parties in Melbourne and Sydney.

ZX Ventures, AB InBev’s global growth and innovation division, invested in RateBeer two years ago, $2M dollars in technology and the hiring of an Australian team to help drive the evolution of the global product and it is is a world site for craft beer enthusiasts and is dedicated to serving the entire craft beer community through beer education, promotion and outreach.

Essentially, Australians will be able to buy “rare and highly-rated” beers through retail partners via the website, with additional enhancements including the introduction of push notifications and a clearer rate and review system.

Australia is RateBeer’s fourth biggest market globally, which Mitchell believes makes it the perfect testing ground for the new developments. The company already has over 10,000 Australian beers logged from hundreds of breweries.

Let’s get into the show!

Have you ever desired a life of more financial freedom, pursuing a life work balance that you believe you can have and being the best person you could be for yourself and the people around you?

WICKED Entrepreneurship & Leadership Choose Day radio show recorded yesterday at The Bucketlist Bondi on Bondi Radio with my home-boys Stacy Henderson (POVAR) and Seth Lawrence (Secret Men’s Business) LIVE on Bondi Radio, whilst watching the blue green waves roll in at Bondi Beach. And I loved it so much that we decided to release it as a podcast! 

The conversation flows and as always we go on a number of tangents:

• Early in the show Stacy and I talk openly about how we’re both looking to re-position ourselves professionally, striving for more financial freedom in life, creating a career for yourself based on what you love, what you’re good at and what you want out of life.
• Seth Lawrence speaks in depth about Men’s Mental Health and his current path of "helping a lot of men (and women) in our communities understand and feel their emotions, move through and release them rather than suppression" which in his belief leads to depression, suicide, drug and alcohol abuse, domestic violence etc. His training has helped him to let go of a lot of negative thoughts, beliefs and patterns that no longer serve him and it has allowed Seth to establish a deeper connection with himself and others. 
• I face a few demons of my own on the Choose Day show and share with the boys the steps I took from having no confidence as a kid to being someone that I’m proud of and I love.
• We share a few top tips for anyone craving to pursue a new career that they’re passionate about.
• Yoga, meditation and we of course wax lyrical about life in Bondi Beach.

Super chats and I hope that this radio show podcast puts a smile on your face and makes your heart soar as much as it does mine!

Boom! One of THE best podcasts that I’ve ever recorded and kick-ass chats with bass player of The Delta Riggs, Michael ‘Monte’ Tramonte.

We launch The Delta Riggs brand new single ‘Fake That’ and spend most of the show wading through the making Calabrese salami, Irish whiskey, Middletons & Matthew Broderick, the best pizza in Sydney, top tips for interview techniques when chatting to musos, travelling to Italy, Jim Jefferies and Brad Pitt as the weather man and so much more.

Downright hilarious and tangent-central, just dripping with banter, THIS is the podcast that you do not want to miss!

• Recognize when it’s not working.
• The goal: Passive income - keep your eyes on the prize

Rave reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, evading crocs, playing footy & music in the Northern Territory, the Tiwi Islands and getting into the thick of Australian indigenous culture. All this & more is just some of what’s in store this week on Hot & Delicious: Rocks The Planet!

Australian singer/songwriter Todd Cook joins me live from Adelaide on tour to talk about the launch of ‘The Silent Boat’ EP.

Celebrating the 150th anniversary of the first Australian Cricket team’s tour to England in 1868, ‘The Silent Boat’ tells the relatively untold part of Australian history.

The team, predominately made up of indigenous players from Western Victoria, displayed outstanding sportsmanship and skill, and their story is a beacon of hope in a dark page of Australian folklore.

Todd Cook’s vocals are Gomez x David Gray amplified, he wrote his wedding vows as a song, describes a “pinch me” moment whilst on tour in Belfast and we even get the ‘Silent Boat single a spin.

Marriage Equality. The answer is YES!

I don’t jump up on the soap box very often and so when I do you can rest assured that it’s subject matter that I am SUPER passionate about!

Being an ex Emirates flight attendant with LOADS of mates who are LGBTIQA, I am super passionate about the #MarriageEquality vote in Australia and want to be able to utilize my Hot & Delicious: Rocks The Planet weekly iTunes entrepreneurship podcast and social media presence to raise awareness for the vote and the need for Australians to take part in the upcoming Marriage Equality vote (*Editors note - I recorded this show in August 2017 before the vote. Same-Sex Marriage is now a legal right in Australia).

More than 760 million people countries around the world live in 23 countries where same-sex marriage is already a legal right. How are we not on board already?? It’s a basic human right! Fact. We were the 2nd country in the world to given women the legal right to vote (yep, New Zealand beat us again 😃). How are we so far behind now?? 

I immediately shot a text to my home-boy Craig Mack, who is a Social Media Strategist (TEDx Sydney, The Pinnacle Foundation, UTS), model with Wink Models, blogger, brand ambassador (Beyond Blue, R U OK?) and openly gay Sydney man, to join me and create an exclusive show about #MarriageEquality and the upcoming plebiscite vote to legalise gay marriage in Australia.

We discuss his childhood growing up in Coffs Harbour as the son of a drug dealer and drug addict, a hilarious and heartfelt True or False quiz about the facts of Marriage Equality, hot pink pants on a Sunday, his exploration of his own sexuality and sexual orientation, some of the wicked content we’ve seen about Marriage Equality including Tim Minchin's 'I Still Call Australia Home’ Marriage Equality plebiscite parody, to Audible's 'Listen to Love, six-part audio series that the platform partnered with The Equality Campaign to create, exploring marriage equality in Australia, LGBTQIA teen suicide prevention and MUCH much more. 

Honestly, this is one of the most, beautiful, honest and wonderful shows that I have ever had the pleasure of recording. 

I hope that you enjoy it as much as I do!
