In this episode of the podcast, I welcome Jack Phillips to the studio, a journalist, turned content maker that now calls Sydney home. Having grown up in East London via Essex in the late 90's and early 2000's, football and lad culture seemed to be the only way to relate. Shaved heads and Puma tracksuits were the uniform and footballers like David Beckham were the inspiration. Like many of us, it took heading out to University for Jack to see what else was out there and work out who he wanted to be. After some experimental haircuts and the discovery of TOPSHOP, it was his first job at Monocle magazine where he saw what a life of style could truly look like, but it would take a bit of effort to get there.
Head over to meninthistown.com to view selects from our portrait session and in the meantime I hope you enjoy the conversation that took place.
Produced by MITT Work, recorded at Pocket Studio in Sydney.
