Australian media personality Em Rusciano has opened up about her experience with embattled comedian Russell Brand when she worked in radio. The podcaster, 44, made the remarks on Thursday's episode of her Emsolation podcast.  Responding to the anonymous allegations made in media reports over the weekend accusing the English comedian of rape, Em claimed that she'd thought nothing of Brand's sexual playfulness at the time, as it was before the #MeToo era.

If you attended Ontario Association of Broadcasters Connection '22, you may have taken in the first panel of this year's conference, The Wizards of Aus, looking at the moment of resurgence radio is having in Australia.Part of that growth is attributed to Boomtown - a collaboration between Southern Cross Austereo, Prime Media Group, WIN Network, Australian Community Media, Imparja, ARN, News Corp Australia and oOh!media - which markets regional radio and television to national advertisers.While 9.1M residents live in regional Australia, and the average income is $93K a year, just 10% of national media budgets were spent there when the campaign started.On this episode of Broadcast Dialogue - The Podcast, we welcome Boomtown Chairperson and Chief Sales Officer for Southern Cross Austereo Brian Gallagher, to talk about how educating media buyers has paid off and why he's bullish on the outlook for commercial radio.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Kaley Baker has invested a lot of time listening to the Air Heads Podcast and suddenly this week finds herself on it!

The Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) has mapped around three million distant galaxies with remarkable speed and detail. The telescope completed its first survey of the sky from the Outback in Western Australia in just 300 hours. According to Larry Marshall, head of Australian science agency Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), the survey was a breakthrough in unveiling the mysteries of the universe. The survey's result is analogous to a Google Map of the universe, where millions of faraway galaxies are shown as star-like marks. The map includes about a million new galaxies that had never been seen before. Other telescopes would have taken about a decade to map out the same number of galaxies. In addition, compared to other surveys of the sky that require tens of thousands of images to process and combine, the ASKAP only needed about 900 images to create a new atlas of the sky. Because of its superior capabilities, astronomer David McConnell described the ASKAP as a game-changer in astronomy. The telescope is equipped with CSIRO-designed receivers that enable it to have a vast field of view and capture images of the sky in higher resolution compared to other telescopes. Its custom-built software is also capable of quickly processing the large amounts of data it generates. McConnell said the telescope is more sensitive, capturing a larger number of objects than ever before. Scientists at CSIRO expect to conduct more surveys of the sky and discover millions more galaxies in the future.  They are also hopeful that the telescope will allow them to observe changes in the sky and gain a better understanding of the life cycle of stars and the evolution of black holes and galaxies.

If this podcast and my teenage diary have taught me anything, it's that looking back on who you were 30 years ago, is VERY enlightening, it's also shocking as all get out. Each week of entries leaves me a wee bit shook by my own decisions, choices, thoughts, theories and all the other inane this and that I've chosen to record within my diary. In this week's episode I've invited my bestie Jenny back (she's a 'uge Madonna fan, hence why I just call her Majenna) to help me work though some fucked up entries. Inside there’s more attempts at diarised humour, I also get nervous broadcasting into two new towns for 2 hours, I wake up to an actual zoo in the bathroom while I’m house sitting at Jan's. I wish I could remember how I removed both the small creatures I stumbled upon, the memory is foggy slash utterly gone, but I can't see myself killing them either. I have to just trust that I got someone in to help me remove them because I was not interested in undertaking that in any way, shape or form, hence why I'm sure I didn't off them like some low key serial killer in the making. I also hilariously dispense love and relationship advice, even though I haven’t had any experience of either, thankfully Majenna thinks it ain't all bad, phew. PLUS I pretend I’m tough by slagging off the cops, I know right, it's just one "brave" story after another, anyway get ready we is about to hit peak teenager AGAIN.

What you're about to hear are some of the most embarrassing diary entries I've uncovered so far. It could be argued that there's been a constant stream of things I could easily classify as embarrassing already, and that this is just the thirty eighth week of embarrassing events and occurrences loosely strung together with eccessive time calls and shit house attempts at humour. THAT is also a hungie percent true, but I can also promise you that these entires are truly in a class of their own when it comes to things we should be ashamed of. So it figures I'd bring in two of my besties who are willing to help support me through it, but also willing to tear me a new one and hang me out to dry...as only your loved ones can. Jessica Gale and Taris Tyler befriended one another in the mid 90's in Perth. I was working nights at 96FM with Claire as Bad Boy and the Vixen, Jessica was hosting the 96FM Breakfast Show with Dave Gore and Russell Gilbert. Jess and I clicked right away and became friends through work, Taris and Jess befriended one another over the phone during the conversations they had whenever Taris rang into the radio station for a chat while the songs were playing. The story of how Taris transformed himself from a listener, into a much loved friend and bestie of both Jessica and myself is included in this episode. You'll also get to witness me comparing the 1989 version of me to Princess Diana, because of course, why haven't I mentioned this before, it seems so obvious now, or does it? Hopefully the comparison will make sense once you've heard it in context, or maybe it won't, I'm sure there's some kind of food for thought in there at the very least. I’ve also officially lost my diary filling mind, as twenty something me tries to "JAZZ UP" my diary entries, which means we get treated to (or rather, have to endure) a stream of thought entry, that's sadly as inane as you’d expect, an entry written from the perspective of a Russian spy, who’s getting interrogated by other Russians (can I apologise to all Russians for my terrible attempt at perfecting a Russian accent, seems accents aren't my forte, good to know hehe). There's also a version of an L.A. surfer dude AND (no I'm not kidding) a variety of animals, plus even weirder, I seem to be obsessed with showing off how many slang words I know for the word vomit, and this is just the first four diary entries for this week. There’s so much other whack shit that happens in the other three entries too, I’m having embarrassment induced anxiety about it every time I think of what is in these entries, so here's hoping you enjoy my unbridled stupidity, good luck lovelies.

So we're back with another week's worth of my relentlessly yawn-arrific diary entries to wade through and this time around I've invited my bestie and former ONE and ONLY ACTUAL girlfriend Trish to join me (Trish the Dish, who I dumped soon after she tried to snog me, I'm pretty sure the fact she knew I was actually gay, well before I was willing to accept and own it, was another reason I called an end to us dating hehe). Thankfully, me finally coming out, plus our mutual love of 'The Princess Bride' book and movie, meant that our relationship and friendship only strengthened, hence why our title alludes to me being the closeted Princess that was lying about myself to Trish. Coming up in this episode my diary entries cover everything from me wasting maximum 80’s coin making back to back long distance phone calls, to pretending I actually like basketball, in fact I actually go so far as to wish I had an Adelaide 36'ers top to seal the deal and flaunt all over Karratha, ummm vomit. Speaking of vommy, I also get asked to panel Richie’s breakfast show, while he broadcasts live from the BP Service Station, but I end up getting sent home with vomiting and diarrhoea. I know, it seems to be a regular occurrence, but I promise that I give almost zero info about my butt movements this time around, also could teenage me just wash his friggen hands and stop eating floor food on the regular? Seriously.

This week on the Air Heads Podcast I catch up with Triple M Griffith breakfast announcer Mandy Page. I'm lucky enough catch with Mandy on a daily basis and watch her grow her audience by developing some of the best content I've seen from a regional show. Mandy started her life in IT and got board very quickly because she was a creative and creatives need to be in a creative environment. There are some great lessons in this week's Episode of the Podcast. Dive in - You'll love it!

For this weeks worth of diary entries, I'm joined by my bestie and former co-host Amanda, who was flung together with me on air in the early 90's after management decided to sack my best mate, give me his job AND his co-host Amanda to hang out with too. Naaaw radio, you're so considerate of nobodies feelings. Anyway, we swiftly became mates and the rest is history, fortunately Amanda remembers way more stuff from that history than I do, PLUS she's a huge fan of the podcast, so of course she's back. Together we'll have to navigate the sudden arrival of what is, at this stage, my bleakest diary entry ever, it's sad, but also abusive, and it makes me feel sorry for 20 year old me kinda, but not really, suck it up you teeny princess hehe. Anyway aside from that, we also have work through entires about me having a zit filled facial crisis, I stupidly agree to installing a home phone in the radio station share house, much to my mothers disgust, she was right of course. I also attend the 'Karratha Citizens of the Year' Awards and get bored to snores, and one of the two share house kittens gets adopted, but will it be mine? It won’t be, there's also a great memory care of Amanda when she reveals how she lied her way into a career in radio. It's a top tip, but probably not something you should entertain, unless you're really savvy, or you're more than willing to be fired a few days into being hired, so swings and roundabouts really hehe.

If there's one thing this diary has been delivering in abundance, its proof of my teenage obsession with filling every page of it with endless time keeping of the most mundane and boring of things. It's like I'm a scientist employed specifically to study the most arrogant and self absorbed lab rat EVER delivered to the laboratory. Surprisingly, this weeks worth of diary entries actually delivers way more detail than regular listeners of this podcast would expect. There's frustration and anger to express, sassy attitudes to record, cold shoulders to deliver and my life might even be in danger, or maybe my roomie is just really forgetful. My bestie Natalie (who sold me abundant Jag Men clothing and Fossil watches at a store in Karratha called Om Bazaar back in 1989) returns to help me work through diary entries detailing everything from Cyndy banging on my door early in the morning to invite me to the fair, I get to interview more fishermen, lose the keys to Jan's house while she's away in Perth, and I'm meant to be feeding her cats, and go to something called a Fenacle Fanny, I know, what the actual what? I also broadcast live from the Roebourne Races, book a flight home for the holidays and gets roped into a 12 hour work day, which leaves the 20 year old version of me being totes not happy with my boss Neville, and apparently I’m not afraid to show it, which will actually lead to me having to endure a chat about my attitude problem. There's also the realisation that whilst I may have been presenting as a straight guy in my day to day life back in 1989, the way I was filling out my diary entries were certainly VERY camp, plus Natalie accuses me of being on drugs, so there's a lot to work through once again.

My bestie and former roomie from Karratha, Lisa (aka Boofie, which is short for bouffant, because in 1990 Lisa had a news reading demo video where the cameraman actually cut the top of her head off, and when she showed it to me I asked her "what was out of shot, a bouffant?". Then Boofie became Lisa's nickname because apparently EVERYONE I met had to be given a stupid nickname by teenage me...grrr but also hehe) anyway Boofie returns for this episode which is filled with everything from screaming parrots and airline traffic, to more behind the scenes gossip about Lisa's time interviewing Barnesy with my guest from Episode 28, Jonesy. If you've heard that episode, you'll remember Jonesy saying he'd encouraged Lisa not to wear a short skirt to that Jimmy Barnes interview, which Lisa confirms and then reveals more hilarity I'd never heard before. Also coming up in this episode, Bradley comes to say goodbye, but where is he going, and who even is he, and why don’t I remember any of those things? Teenage me also gets sold out by an office snitch and then I get a lecture on my taste in music, I also wash my clothes for the first time since my Mum left, which is kinda gross. There's excitement when I request a 2 week holiday from my boss Neville for November, and naturally I decide to go on a diet AGAIN. I also see a bunch more movies and actually enjoy doing a few live crosses to interview recreational fishers in a fishing competition, who even am I? Anyway there's a lot to process once again, plus you'll also get a bonus story from my early teenage years revealing how devoted to lip syncing I was, well before RuPaul delivered us Drag Race, thankfully there is no footage, just the memories of those that managed to witness the extravaganza and me obviously hehe.
