Send us a textJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musicianTaylor Sheridan brings us directly into his world, where farm life, fatherhood, and music converge to create something uniquely authentic. Growing up on his father's mobile animal farm in Victoria's Macedon Ranges taught Taylor responsibility and connection from an early age – lessons that now infuse his songwriting with genuine emotion and purpose.What makes Taylor's musical journey fascinating is how organically he found his way to country music. Unlike artists born into the genre, Taylor first fell in love with the soul stylings of Stevie Wonder before gradually discovering that his natural storytelling abilities aligned perfectly with country traditions. "I just write music that I like," he explains, revealing how his approach transcends genre limitations while honoring the storytelling heart of country music.The conversation turns deeply personal as Taylor shares the inspiration behind his new single "Stories," written at a pivotal moment in his life. With fatherhood transforming his perspective and a national tour with Jimmy Barnes on the horizon, Taylor finds himself looking forward rather than backward for the first time. "Now having a daughter, it's the first time in my life where I've been looking forward to what's to come," he reveals, describing how this shift influences his creative process. His five years touring with Taxiride provided an education in connecting with audiences through music that serves others rather than ego – experience that continues to shape his authentic performance style.Whether discussing his ambassadorship for youth mental health through the Life Changer Foundation or reflecting on the Michael Jackson performance that changed his life trajectory at age eleven, Taylor embodies an artist committed to genuine expression and meaningful connection. Join us for this intimate conversation with one of Australia's most thoughtful country voices as he prepares to share stages with Jimmy Barnes while navigating the beautiful chaos of new parenthood. Listen now to discover the stories behind the storyteller.What has Taylor Sheridan been up to lately?  Let's find out!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP Well, I don't know about you, but here at Life in the Peloton, we are still absolutely buzzing from yesterday's World Road Race Championships! I think we witnessed one of the greatest performances ever. I'm delighted to say that we've got a hot-off-the-press Communiqué pod for you. Joining me are Jayco Alula rider Luke Durbridge and EF Education EasyPost Sports Director Tom Southam. Together, we dissect the race faster than a group of Spanish commissaries heading to dinner… We couldn't wait to dive in and analyze the race, and what a race it was. As always, the Communiqué brings you our unique triple-pronged take on the event. I offer my armchair pundit's view of the action, which this time came from the commentary box in Australia, giving me a great vantage point. We've also got Durbo's ‘Pelo Chat' segment, where Luke explores interesting technical details and hot topics within the peloton, such as the impact of riders racing without radios and what that meant for the race. And of course, there's Tom's ‘Talking Tactics,' where we hear the DS perspective on the race's tactical intricacies, especially given the complexity of the national team format and how the peloton dealt with one of the greatest of all time. Just like a real communiqué wouldn't be complete without a page of fines, our Life in the Peloton Communiqué wouldn't be complete without a Communi-quiz. We have a special edition of that too. Don't wait for this one—grab your brew, sit back, and give it a listen. Cheers! Mitch ----more---- This episode is supported by our friends at The Escape Collective.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP This week on Life in the Peloton, we've got Lael Wilcox back on the pod. As many of you know, Lael has just become the Guinness World Record holder for cycling around the world. She rode an incredible 29,000 kilometers starting from Chicago, circumnavigating the globe in 108 days, 12 hours, and 12 minutes. I was so excited to get Lael back on the pod this week. I loved following her journey around the world through her podcasts and videos. Lael is full of energy, and what really drew me into this adventure was how she managed to make something so difficult and challenging sound like so much fun to manage to involve so many people. In our chat we spoke about what it was like to complete this adventure, to cross the globe, to ride in all these amazing places, and to do so with so many people joining in and following along. Her record attempt was followed by thousands of people, many of whom took the time to join her on the ride, offering gifts, places to stay, and help along the way, as well as the occasional diversion to improve her route! I was particularly keen to hear what it had been like riding across Australia, but I love to hear how people see my country and be able to see it through fresh perspectives. Lael actually reached out for a route, and I was really happy to be able to help out - at the last minute! And then to hear what this adventure had been like.   Lael is so inspiring to talk to, her story and approach to riding her bike is fantastic, and we loved having her back on the pod. Take a listen to this episode—it's an amazing trip around the world, not to mention a new world record, and something that's inspiring for so many cyclists. Sit back, relax and enjoy.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP Regulars to the pod might be familiar with the story of Christian Meier the cyclist, the teammate, or the Girona resident and coffee shop owner. But, inspired by organising my first running event - the ‘Pub to Pub' in Lancefield, this instalment Life in the Peloton is all aboutChristian Meier: the ultra-runner. After retiring in 2016 and setting up his Girona coffee shops, Christian hasn't sat still, and instead has found a new athletic passion that has led him to some quite incredible heights! For most ex-pros finishing their career means they wind down and gradually do less sport (or none at all). Christian has broken that mould and found a new love for Ultra-running that in his mind eclipses even his feats as a professional cyclist riding the Tour de France, Giro of Vuelta. I've been loving getting involved with running since I stopped racing, even starting up the Lanny Run Club here in Lancefield. Interestingly in the past few years, we've seen more and more professional cyclists turn to running as part of their training and fitness regimen, even during the race season, something that was unthinkable for a pro rider just a few years ago. Christian was a fascinating guy to talk to on the subject (I ran out of time to get all the tips out of him that I wanted!) but I did get to ask him about what it was like making the transition, what he loves about ultra-running and the similarities and surprising differences between the two endurance sports. We also went over his incredible win in the TDS, an ultra-running race of 145km that takes in over 9000m of climbing in the Alps. I'll leave you guys to have a listen to hear what the man himself has to say about that! Cheers! Mitch ----more---- The Dirty Docker is almost here!

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP Hey everyone, we're back this week with another Talking Luft Top Six Most Influential! This week I'm joined by one of the most recognisable and talented cycling commentators, Rob Hatch to talk all about our most influential World Championships. The World Road Race Championships is not only one of the most prestigious races of the year, but it's also unique in pro racing being the only race of the year where professionals race for their national teams, for that coveted rainbow jersey!  I was lucky enough to race a couple of worlds for Australia and I can tell you it is a pretty special experience to be able to represent your country in your sport. I loved racing for Australia and I pick out some of my experiences for this pod, including helping Micheal Matthews to the silver medal in 2015, and that rain in Yorkshire!  My guest Rob Hatch has been covering pro racing for well over a decade and has been following cycling for even longer. His voice has accompanied some of the most epic racing moments in recent years - and many of those non-epic hours that fill our TV screens too!  Rob has an incredible, and in-depth knowledge of cycling and he's as passionate as any anyone I know on the subject. We talked about some fantastic Worlds from Chambery to Harrogate via Richmond. The Worlds really does cover so many different places and characters that it was always going to be hard work to get things down to just (over a) handful of editions!  If, like myself and Rob, you can't wait for the worlds to roll round (now that the Vuelta is old news!) then have a listen to this one, and get in the mood for the big WC.  Cheers!  Mitch ----more---- The Dirty Docker is almost here!

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP This week's episode of Life in the Peloton is a treat for all the tech fans out there as we're talking to Josh Poertner. Currently, Josh is the owner of iconic cycling brand Silca, where he has been doing some really cool stuff in the past few years, but he's also one of the minds behind some of the most interesting changes in tech in pro cycling in the last decade. Coming from a motorsport background, Josh was introduced to cycling through at Zipp where (amongst other things) through his work with Fabian Cancellara at CSC, he changed the way that, my favourite race, Paris Roubaix is raced, showing the world that the cobbles could be conquered on carbon wheels. These days it might not even sound that revolutionary to think about tackling a race like Roubaix on deep section carbon wheels, but as someone who raced it back in the late 00's on 36 spoke box section rims this was a real revolution. Small changes like this make huge contributions to the speed of races and the way that the peloton moves these days. To be honest the wheels at Roubaix, although a huge talking point for me obviously, are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Josh's work in pro cycling. His is one of the minds that has led to the revolution in aerodynamics, lowering rolling resistance, ceramic bearingsand a host of other seemingly small but game changing ideas that has sped up the sport in the past decade. I was pumped to sit down and talk with Josh about all of this, and of course recount the pretty funny tale of when we first met in 2019 and he had to go and pick up the race bike I'd left on a baggage carousel the day before Roubaix!   Sit back and have a listen and get to know one of the people who has really changed the sport for the better!

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP This week Talking Luft's Top Six Most Influential is from one of my personal favourite races with one of my best mates from the peloton: it's the Vuelta España with Sam Bewley.  Sam had a great career on the road, riding all three Grand Tours in his thirteen-year pro career and is now a successful DS at Israel Premier Tech. We were teammates at Green Edge and rode a couple of our Vuelta's together back in the day, which made making this pod even better!  Each Grand Tour has its own characteristics, and the Vuelta would have to be the wildest of the three. We both raced there in the 2010s when the race was settling into its current format with the super tough finishes and more open racing than we were used to at the time.  As always, our selection of the most influential parts of the race includes some of the action from the stages, but also the stories, the climbs, crosswinds, routes, and riders that have made this race so special. There are even a few first-hand accounts of some of those key stages and some nice bits of detail that you would certainly never have seen on TV!  I loved having Sam back on the pod and being able to chat about some of those stages and moments, as well as one superb post-race beer session (post our race - if not the race…) which I have to say is my absolute favourite moment from any of my Grand Tour experiences; a special memory and a great story to tell.  This one is a blast, and on the eve of the race itself, I hope it leaves you thirsty for a bit more Vuelta action!

I was lucky enough to be invited to stay at Oakwood Premier in Southbank, Melbourne for two nights. We stayed on the 37th floor in a glorious one bedroom apartment with a view out across the river and the city to the Richmond, Kew and even a glimpse of the Dandenongs. Everything looks different from so high up and I loved taking in the lights of the city by night and then watching the sun rise up between the buildings in the morning. The apartment was super comfortable and had we wanted to stay there and never leave, it had a fully equipped kitchen with a Nespresso machine, glasses for every occasion and even a set of measuring cups! But of course, we didn't need to cook because we were also invited to dine at Strato on the 40th floor. Culinary director Gagan Sharma and his team looked after us beautifully, taking us through the menu with Huon salmon tartare and Thomastown mini burrata to start followed by honey glazed Macedon Ranges duck breast and Spatchcock with Makhani gravy and an onion bhaji – the gravy and bhaji a nod to Gagan's roots. We finished with all three of the desserts which were stunning in their colour, texture and flavour: Yuzu Honey Ginger Semifreddo; Yuzu ganache encased in a delicate white chocolate hive, Dark Chocolate Cube with a velvety caramel centre, and green apple and sorbet. I could already tell from the menu that Gagan loves what he does and enjoys creating menus that allow local produce to shine. It was such a pleasure to talk to him the next day about why he became a chef and the pleasure he gets from cooking and feeding people.

Both Haley - who is a former winner of the Lifetime GP overall, and Rosa - the eventual winner that day, were in that group fighting for the win in the most prestigious gravel event on the calendar. While Haley made the switch to gravel racing after representing Canada in mountain biking at the 2021 Olympics, Rosa is relatively new to competitive cycling - having taken up racing just a couple of years ago. We kicked off our chat going into some great detail about that final in Unbound, but I also wanted to understand the importance of the race as an event and what it means to win it. We also got to discuss how the women felt that the race had benefitted from differing start times for male and female athletes in 2024. Like ourselves here at Life in the Peloton, both Haley and Rosa are supported by MAAP, and even though Haley and Rosa are rivals, I wanted to take this opportunity to have a chat about but how the world of privateering works for these athletes, and what being a privateer really means.

Ellen launched her business at age 24 after becoming increasingly frustrated towards how women were marketed to in the alcohol industry.  BABY Pink Gin is a premium pink gin distilled in the Macedon Ranges that stays pink when mixed. BABY aims to give feminine drinkers something local and premium to drink, without assuming that we just want cheap, sugary drinks. BABY is sugar-free, gluten-free and vegan-friendly.  Alongside being a business owner, Ellen also co-owns her family marketing agency ‘Flaunt,' which she operates with her mum. And if all of this wasn't enough, Ellen has become so passionate about supporting other female-founded businesses that she decided to start her own bi-annual market in Melbourne called the Female Founders Festival.  – Ellen recommends watching The Twelve - an Australian drama about a jury, and balancing that out with some reality TV in the manner of the newest season of Real Housewives of New York City.  Ellen is also listening to a podcast called Everything Iconic with Danny Pellegrino for your go-to Housewives recaps.   – Find Ellen on Instagram at @ellenweigall and at Flaunt Marketing - the agency Ellen operates with her mum.  Find BABY Pink Gin's delicious drinks here: https://babypinkgin.com/  TikTok: @babypinkgin Instagram: @babypinkgin   Ps.

When it comes to running short-term accommodation, outdoor spaces are almost always lower on the priority list than a property's interior, but award-winning, Victorian-based landscape designer and seasoned host Kathleen Murphy is determined to change that. After a brief stint in the corporate world, Kathleen trained in horticulture in the Dublin Botanical Gardens in Ireland, completing further studies with the Royal Horticultural Society and Melbourne's Burnley University following. Having relocated back to Australia in the subsequent years, she established Kathleen Murphy Landscape Design in 2006 and has been designing gardens with her small team ever since, maintaining a strong focus on linking the architecture of the house and buildings to the surrounding landscape. Despite her foray into hosting starting with her holiday property Inlet House in the seaside Victorian town of Inverloch, she recently took this off the short-term rental market in order to move into it with her family full-time, transforming her former primary residence in the Macedon Ranges into a stunning, self-contained getaway. I've long-admired some of the incredible gardens Kathleen has cultivated over her professional career and it was truly a delight to be able to chat with her for the podcast recently.

Today's episode is with Tarra from Macedon Ranges in rural Victoria. Tarra has two children. She birthed in both a CBD hospital and a small regional hospital. Tarra was a nurse and also studying to be a midwife. She shares that originally, she wanted to be in a bigger metro hospital in case something did go wrong. This hospital did offer an MGP program and Tarra determinedly found a way into the program in order to experience continuity of care. She had visions of a waterbirth but her labour and birth experience moved quite differently. Tarra shares her difficult first labour. She spoke as a strong advocate for herself but at times wasn't heard. This first labour was hard. Tarra experienced and needed to work through birth trauma prior to her second birth. For her second birth she actively pursued different care and was very clear with her obstetrician and midwife about her needs in labour, after her first experience. This second birth still had twists and turns but also allowed Tarra to feel the support, listening and consideration that were lacking in her first birth. Tarra felt this difference. This smaller, rural maternity unit had the time for her. Their care was more personal and she found the experience very healing. Tarra had also engaged with hypnobirthing and used the Freya app. to support her during labour and would thoroughly recommend this accessible resource for other rural women.

Access to quality education is a huge issue globally, and parents everywhere want the best for their children. In Australia, where large areas of the country have been in a hard lockdown due to COVID-19, schools have been closed to students for a lengthy period of time, and parents have been forced to home school their children. Some children have thrived, and some have suffered – unable to effectively engage in home schooling and falling behind. This, against the backdrop of scandal after scandal involving elite private schools and racist, sexist and homophobic behaviour from students has reignited the ongoing debate about the merit of federal government funding for private schools. Season 4 kicks off with John Marsden, storyteller, renowned author and Principal of Candlebark, a P-7 school nestled in the foothills of the Macedon Ranges on 1100 acres of bushland.
