Welcome to Jake's Happy Nostalgia Show, the podcast where nostalgia comes alive!

In this episode, we're joined by the talented Australian actress, director, and producer Joanne Samuel! Best known for her iconic role as Jessie Rockatansky in the original Mad Max, Joanne takes us on a journey through her remarkable career in film and television. We talk about her experience working alongside Mel Gibson, her starring role in the cult horror film Alison's Birthday, and her appearances in films such as Early Frost, Nightmaster, Christmas Down Under, and What About Sal. Joanne also reflects on her work in beloved television soap operas and shares stories from her role as Mrs. Rosemary Bingle in The Wiggles Movie, a favorite for children around the world. Plus, we dive into her appearance in the documentary Mad Max Fans: Beyond The Wasteland and discuss her behind-the-scenes work as a director and producer.
