By pure coincidence this conversation was recorded exactly 20 years to the day after Sharyn Casey and I first met.


Back then, she was 20 years old, wildly ambitious and by her own admission trying far too hard to make everyone like her.


Fast forward two decades and Sharyn has walked away from the radio job that shaped her entire adult identity - and she’s figuring out who she is without it. This conversation is funny, h...

At the time of publishing this, the All Blacks are back in South Africa for a tour that is being called “Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry”

And it’s hard to argue with that. The rivalry between these nations went up a notch at the 1995 world cup when the Springboks beat the All Blacks by 3 points in extra time.


In this FastCast, Laurie reflects on that 15–12 defeat at Ellis Park and the controversy surro...

He’s written a book, finished 3rd on Celebrity Treasure Island, interviewed some of the biggest names on the planet, and taken his dad to Turkey for a brand-new smile.


But behind all that success are stories he hasn’t told on Tik Tok about ambition, his complex relationship wi...
