Eilish Gilligan on the person behind the podcast
Hello! Today, we are bringing you a very special interview with Shameless Media’s very own Eilish Gilligan. Pop culture has always been a huge part of Eilish’s life, but before she started working on the Shameless Podcast, she was pursuing a career as a solo artist in music. In this conversation, Eilish speaks about her non-linear career trajectory and the moment she was dropped by her music manager, out of the blue, after years of hard work. She also opens up the ebbs and flows of her mental health, and how she found the strength to walk away from a toxic relationship when everyone else around her was settling down.

In this conversation, Trent discusses some of the beautiful, vivid memories that comprise the story of his childhood, as told in Boy Swallows Universe.

Jase Hawkins on the heartbreak of losing both parents
Hello! Today, we are joined by Jase Hawkins. Jase likely needs no introduction; he’s the co-host of Nova 100’s Melbourne breakfast show, alongside the brilliant Lauren Phillips. Jase and Lauren started out together on KISS; in fact, they first were introduced in a hotel room, where their initial chemistry test took place, but in 2024, they lost their breakfast slot to Kyle and Jackie O, who began broadcasting out of Melbourne. However, there is much more to Jase than his warm and hilarious radio persona. In this conversation, Jase opens up about his early radio career and why he owes it all to Kyle Sandilands, how he’s processed the grief of losing both of his parents in the space of three years, and why he will give everyone the time of day, no matter who they are. To support Jase, you can follow him on Instagram @jase_hawkins. Thank you so much to ANASTASIA the Broadway Musical for supporting this episode of Inherited. Catch the Australian premiere of ANASTASIA at Melbourne’s Regent Theatre from December 20th. ANASTASIA will then head to Perth’s Crown Theatre in March, followed by Sydney’s Lyric Theatre from April.
