He's played soldiers, doctors, neurosurgeons and Spartans but the role Ditch Davey is most proud of is dad. Ditch opens up about arriving at drama school and being told for the first time in his life that he couldn't read and the extraordinary journey of learning how at 20 years old, word by word, Disney tape by Disney tape. He also shares why turning 50 has been the greatest gift and the joys of every stage of fatherhood.

Award-winning actor Susie Porter has built an extraordinary career, but behind the success were years of uncertainty, self-doubt, and learning how to keep going when things didn’t go to plan. Joining Sam and Sarah, she reflects on the mindset shifts, spiritual practices, and life lessons that helped her navigate the unpredictable world of acting. From manifestation and gratitude to love, advocacy, and the healing power of service, this is a thoughtful conversation about trusting the journey and staying open to what comes next.

When nobody would give Nick Giannopoulos a role, he created his own. In this episode, he joins Sam and Sarah to talk about growing up above his parents’ milk bar, the unexpected rise of Wogs Out of Work, betting everything on The Wog Boy, and the moment he realised just how much of his success came from his father. It’s a conversation about backing yourself, finding your audience, and why waiting for permission rarely works.
