In this special episode of the podcast, I’m joined by guest co-host "Joseph Marshall" (Founder of Silbert Records), to chat with one of the most important figures in Australian children’s programming... "Dr. Patricia Edgar"

During her long career, she helped create the Australian Children's Television Foundation (ACTF), which has produced some of the country’s most beloved programs — Round the Twist, Lift-Off, Li'l Elvis, The Genie from Down Under, Touch the Sun, and many more.

We talk about the Foundation’s beginnings, her views on the ACTF’s work today over 40 years later, the rivalries that tried to erase her work and legacy, and we reflect on what her greatest achievements have been in both the Australian and global TV landscape.

In a growing world of AI and nepotism, it’s safe to say that our guest this week defies the odds.

"Guy Gross" is the son of animators and producers Yoram & Sandra Gross, and has had a long career working alongside his late father on his productions for decades — including Blinky Bill, the Dot series, Flipper & Lopaka, Old Tom, and more.

We chat about his time growing up in the family business, his other iconic work such as composing the scores for the Australian cult classic "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert" and the award-winning series "Farscape", and how he continues to create music through his own recording studio.

You can't get more Australian than this!!

This week, we welcome the voice of one of the country’s greatest icons — "Blinky Bill" — along with many other lovable characters... "Robyn Moore"

Robyn talks about how she started voice acting, getting involved in productions by Yoram Gross, the inspiration behind the voice of Blinky Bill, her time working with Keith Scott (including the political satire radio show "How Green Was My Cactus"), and how she’s used her years of experience as a voice actor to help young people in a sometimes troubled society.
