This week we’re fully fanning out with former AFL player Mitch Brown and getting to know the music that made him!

Earlier this year, Mitch made history as the first male AFL player to publicly come out as bisexual in the league’s 129-year history. Since then, many of us have felt like we’ve gotten to know him on a deeper, more human level but now it’s time to go even further, through the music that shaped him.
From school discos to solo loungeroom sessions with his Discman, and the lasting influence of David Bowie, Mitch takes us through the songs, artists and moments that helped him make sense of the world and himself <3

A cheeky, chaotic and candid episode for ya this week with Caleb Harper from Spacey Jane! Fresh from performing at Rolling Sets Festival, Caleb joins us at Moose’s for a full debrief on what has been an absolutely massive 2025 for Spacey Jane.

We dive into everything from the band stepping into co-management and Caleb’s songwriting sessions with Sarah Aarons that shaped their third LP, to how he’s personally navigated the ups and downs of life on tour and in LA. Caleb also takes us through his own evolution as a music fan, the impact of Kings of Leon on his personal life and seeking inspiration from Matty Healy on stage.

Plenty of top-tier live music moments too, including the consumption of whole avocados on the side of the highway at Splendour and a tequila-fuelled egg feast in London. Yep. Enjoy!
