Ep 147: Tana Douglas

What goes on tour stays on tour - unless you're the the first woman roadie in the world At just fifteen, Tana Douglas ran away to the circus that was rock 'n' roll in the 1970s, taking a job with a young and upcoming band called AC/DC. While still a teenager she headed to the UK and later the US to work for a who's who of bands and artists. Life on the road was exhilarating, hard work, occasionally surreal but never dull, particularly when you're the only woman in the road crew and the #metoo movement is still 40 years away.

Whether wrangling Iggy Pop across Europe, climbing trusses while seven months pregnant, drinking shots of JD with Bon Scott backstage at Wembley, or donning a tailor-made suit to do lights for Elton at Windsor Castle, Tana did it all.

Loud is rock 'n' roll like you've never seen it before, by a woman who not only survived the all-male world on the road but climbed to the top and lived to tell the tale. Tana joins our editors to talk about it all and more.

Ep 232- Oliver Mol

Ep 232- Oliver Mol

The slow pace of the pandemic saw a lot of people reassessing their situation. Sea change / tree change / career change? Something needed to change. Today’s guest, Australian author Oliver Mol already went through these paces several years ago when he suffered a splitting ten month migraine. As an emerging Australian writer, it was all over. The chronic pain meant he couldn’t look at a blank page. That’s when he got a real job working on the trains in Sydney. His new book Train Lord tells a dark, hilarious and hopeful story of the bold choices and supernatural coincidences as he clawed his way back to the pen and paper.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep 230- Cameron James & Alexei Toliopoulos - Finding Yeezus

Two of The Betoota Advocate's favourite recurring guests, Cameron James and Alexei Toliopoulos, return to the podcast this week to discuss their most recent investigation. These two men are both very smart and quite humorous - particularly when they find a niche mystery and dedicate months to solving it. Right now, they are looking into a lo-fi Kanye West-themed video game from the early 2010s - which they believe may actually have been used by a cult to recruit members. Very funny stuff, but also interesting FINDING YEEZUS: EPISODE 1 on YouTube Listen to Finding Yeezus podcast recaps with Cam and Alexei hereSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
