For ep 203, it’s another in-person conversation with Matt but this time they talk about Matt’s time hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, his new business and more!
This week is technically the second part of their conversation - Mike & Matt’s discussion on Australia continues with food; how Australia has adopted food culture from both the UK & the USA and some snacks. The conversation then delves into Matt’s 3 month long hike in America with his friend Cody; Matt talks food, packing, sores, washing, hitchhiking and more. Towards the end, Matt talks about his new business Bust Builders, where he makes & sells concrete busts of controversial figures!
Last week (ep 202), Matt explains how and why he moved away from Australia, including the difficulties with immigration and living with his partner & her mum during the COVID lockdown. They then discuss the variance in dialects between Australia & the UK and the other differences in culture including hobbies, money, property and the education system, including history. The duo also discuss Australia’s relationship with the British Monarchy, spiders & snakes, and more!

Jenna explains what radio & chemo therapy feels like, the symptoms she felt while going through the treatment, how frequently she had to have it, the results of the treatment and her life following, including how video games, such as the Legend Of Zelda, helped her through the post-cancer isolation during the COVID lockdowns – this is a conversation for everyone, as everyone knows, or will know, someone who gets cancer.

As live-action Star Wars shows have paused for the moment, our trio of rebels have continued with their review of Star Wars: Rebels with season 2! This is Maff’s first time watching too, so hearing his reactions is very interesting!
In more detail, this episode is a sequel to the first season of Rebels and the trio’s first RR episode, so make sure you go back and listen to that if you haven’t already, but in this episode, they discuss how season 2 feels different from season 1, it’s comparisons to Andor and the best & worst parts of the show (including sound design). Maff then notes how he’s been consuming far more Star Wars content than he expected, Dave talks about The Clone Wars and then they discuss Hondo Ohnaka and the purrgils. The trio then delve into Ahsoka’s character and of course, the finale; Twilight Of The Apprentice!
You can listen to this on any podcast app, or watch the video version at https://youtube.com/genuinechitchat!
