"Every recess, every lunchtime, I had detention. I had to write on the board "I will not interrupt the class, I will not interrupt the class, I will not interrupt the class..." - Rae Johnston
Our guest on this episode of TFM is a science communicator with a twist. A Wiradjuri and Greek woman with a little Welsh in the mix too, Rae Johnston is as warm and enveloping as her homemade (and grown) spiced apple cake.
On the menu is; roast lamb that knocked eight years of being vego on the head, mum’s triple choc mud muffins, Greek feasts on dad’s side of the family, lessons on bringing a new partner into a single-parent family, where her love of horror movies and gaming came from, and why there's nothing more depressing than a sad, flavourless meal.
Rae's social cause is UNICEF because kids are the most vulnerable people in humanity and we have a responsibility to protect them. She's a UNICEF ambassador (just like Angelina Jolie!) and is host of their podcast NextGEN.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
