We round out 2024 with a special Christmas Edition episode of INXS: Access all Areas where we wrap up a massive year with a detailed news section, reminisce through the best eps of the year and share some exciting updates and developments for 2025!
We commenced the year with a deep dive into Michael Hutchence’s posthumous solo album, leading to a long held ambition of chatting to Mark Pellington (Beautiful Girl Video Director, Alex Proyas (Kiss the Dirt), Jon Lamoreaux from The Hustle Podcast amidst many fascinating deep dive episodes including Rockstar INXS, The Switch Album and The Original Sin Project. Most importantly, we culminated the year with the magnum opus review and discussion of the 2014 Never Tear Us Apart Mini Series where we spoke with Nick Masters (aka Tim Farriss) and examined its legacy piece.
Bee and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our valued patrons, global listeners, support staff, every tribute/cover band and guests who appeared on INXS: Access all Areas in 2024. Keeping the band’s legacy alive, maintaining momentum in getting them nominated into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and passing on their important musical baton to the next generation of listeners is everything!
So enjoy “The Gift” of episode 206 and have a special Xmas with a massive 2025 to surpass all others!! Love and peace Haydn & Bee

Epi 205: Nick Masters Interview Actor from the"Never Tear Us Apart" Miniseries.
We are ecstatic to bring you Nick Masters, aka Tim Farriss from the INXS Mini Series in 2014 for a deep dive into the making and goings on of this seminal production.
Shot primarily in Melbourne and throughout select regional spots in Australia, Nick shares great insights into the casting, the rehearsal process and the staggering recreation of Wembley, Suicide Blonde clip and numerous scenes that brought the audience right back to a time and place.
Forever, erudite and explanatory, Nick opens up on the bond and shared experiences each cast member built with one another that ultimately reflected in the final product they hit our screens. Additionally, Nick reveals some long held rumours and anecdotes as fact putting to rest long held rumours particularly the “wig” scenario.
As a relative rookie screen actor, Nick’s role in portraying Tim Farriss was a pivotal and crucial element to the credibility and quality of INXS: Never Tear Us Apart being the critical and commercial success it was.
So sit back, immerse yourself in a truly fascinating 90 minute deep dive!
Love and peace Haydn & Bee

Epi 203: “We Remember Michael Hutchence" 22/11/2024.
It’s that solemn date 0f 22/11 again where we pay homage and respect to the dearly departed Michael Hutchence who left us 27 years ago today.
Forever in our hearts and the forefront of our minds, we’d like to do something a little different this year. Instead of hearing from Bee, myself, the INXS fan cohort, band mates and friends, we thought a montage of rare, known and classic Michael interviews would be welcome.
Once again, we can be reminded of his fantastic talking voice, articulate thoughts and unique take on INXS place in the musical sphere.
So close your eyes, open your heart and ears and enjoy the dulcet spoken words of a long lost, but still loved icon that is Michael Kelland Hutchence.
Love and peace

Epi 202: The INXS Miniseries Review Part 2
INXS: Access all Areas bring to you the most difficult of episodes since our Michael Hutchence funeral episode as we tackle Part Two of the Never Tear Us Apart Mini-Series circa 2014. That part of the INXS journey where Director Daina Reid tackles the wilderness years and unraveling of the band dynamic. Exhilarated but humbled by conquering the UK and European market culminating with the legendary Wembley gig in July 1991, INXS faced an undeserved and unwarranted backlash from their homeland. Episode two captures this and the ensuring dramas associated with trying to remain artistically and commercially relevant in a fast changing musical world with grunge, the Manchester scene and hip hop suddenly dominating the airwaves.
This episode manages to capture a band still producing creative and daring material amidst the pressures of fame, family, relationships and Manager pressures and expectations. But with commercial appeal waning and the band members scattered throughout the globe, we get a “warts and all” account from the inside as to the difficulty many bands face when attempting to keep the machine rolling along.
This episode respectfully deals with the obvious “elephant in the room” be it November 22nd, 1997 whilst criss-crossing time periods allowing the audience to appreciate the many decisions, compromises, struggles, sacrifices and commitment, INXS had to make during their career. As the show veers from re-creation into real spliced footage of the band traversing the world whist conquering countries, audiences, hearts and minds. Unabashedly and emotionally charged in more ways than one, we permit you to open up your soul and be proud of this Australian sextet who left an indelible footprint on the world.
Love and peace Haydn & Bee
