It’s not until you’ve spent time in a country where English is an afterthought, where every sign, label, announcement and conversation is a mystery that you get an idea of how much we take literacy for granted.Without a way to understand the language of the country we’re in it’s almost impossible to get the things we need, things like food, healthcare, employment. You can feel quite powerless, you’re even vulnerable to be taken advantage of.There is one language that’s spoken the world over - and sorry, it’s not love.It’s money.Thankfully - we live in a world at the same time as Victoria Devine.Host of the podcast “She’s on the Money”, her new book “The Business Bible” a guide to business ownership for people craving flexibility and independence.**LIVE SHOWS**STORY CLUB XMAS SPECTACULAR - Comedy Store Sydney Dec 8, 7pmFt Tanya Hennessey, Harry Garside, Rosie Waterland, Dj Hookie (Tom Nash), Emma Wortley and Zoë Norton-Lodge.LAST TICKETS HERE Hosted on Acast.

Andy Griffiths is one of Australia’s most successful children’s book authors, who drew on his experience as a school teacher to redefine what it was that made kids want to read. Anyone who reads books to their kids knows that some are just excellent, and some are pretty ordinary. This conversation peels back the curtain on what makes kids actually want to read – not what we think they should read, but what gets them genuinely excited to turn the page. And in writing about poos, bums, and wees - all in the service of getting more kids to read - Andy has sold Millions and millions of books. As far as Andy is concerned - sometimes the best stories have absolutely no moral lesson whatsoever. There’s also a  brilliant take on how limiting yourself creatively – like writing a story in just 50 words – can actually make your work better. He brings insights into creative writing, childhood development, and the publishing industry which is really fascinating. It’s a conversation about imagination, creativity, and why sometimes the best thing we can do for our kids is let them eat a little dirt.

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.

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. Subscribe to the substack here Hosted on Acast.

If you’re in a long-term relationship, chances are at some point you’ve at least explored ways that you can navigate things when you disagree.Because ultimately it’s not the good bits that keep us together, it’s the way we handle the difficult bits.The slightly handy part of an long-term intimate relationship is that when words fail you, there’s the stuff that you hear about in Marvin Gaye songs.But what if when you get that feeling you can’t access the sexual healing because you’re in a band and rule #1 of being in a band is don’t sleep with anyone in the band.Osher’s guest today is Phil Jamieson is the lead singer of Grinspoon, one of Australia’s greatest rock bands.

What would you do if you had nothing to prove? If you were free to make any project you liked, in whatever shape you liked, to reflect your experience in that moment? Better yet - what if you got to do all of this with a close mate you’ve known for over 20 years? That pretty much describes the conversation Osher has around the new music from Bernard Fanning and Paul Dempsey. Two seminal Australian singer songwriters, they both have enormous careers and a legacy of music which has been the soundtrack to Australian life for nearly 30 years.

Following Maggie Dent’s appearance on the show this week - Osher takes a moment to reflect on what it even means to be a man in 2024. The way we have reframed the role and place of women in our community gives us a far more wonderful world to be in than 30, 50 or 100 years ago. For all of us. Feminism has given women the choice to be feminine, masculine, a CEO, a stay at home mum, girly, sexual, powerful, none of the above or all of the above, each of those choices to be seen as a choice to be respected - and yet I wonder - while we have been rightly reframing the role and place of women in our community, and seeing the benefits that we all share from that, have we been paying attention to addding similar amounts of choice to the roles and place of men and boys in our community, or a similar amount of respect to those choices? Additionally, there’s a surprising amount of talk about Australian rivers in this episode (it all ties in to the idea, we promise).

In Osher’s ongoing series “101 Rules of Showbusiness”, today he explores rules 20-24 which include the vital rule 23: NEVER EAT THE LAST MUFFIN. You never know who just walked past the lunch table and spied that choc chip delight, and how much the day can go sideways if it’s not there when they’re done filming/exploding/fixing something. Always ask everyone if they want it. This rule also explains why sometimes you won’t see a full muffin alone on the tray, but 1/2 or 1/4 of a muffin sitting there - because nobody wanted to break the rule… For more (and for every episode ever) go to oshergunsberg.com Hosted on Acast.

In this episode Osher explores rules 14-19 of his 101 RULES OF SHOW BUSINESS, including this cracker he learned from Dan Machpherson: Rule Number 16: If you arrive at your call time, you’re 20min late. The time on your call sheet isn’t the time you’re pulling into the carpark. It’s not the time you’re making a cuppa in the kitchen. It’s the time you’re ready to go. Get there 20 mins early to do all that other stuff, because working in entertainment is a dance between hundreds of people trying to coordinate perfectly - and you need to be where you’re told to be exactly when you’re told to be there so that everyone else can do their job too.
