Originally we were meant to record backstage at The Melbourne Townhall. But Hamish Blake and Dave Lawson were recording an episode of Dave's Shed. So we grabbed two crates and did a podcast in the mayor's car park. This podcast features four separate characters entering the audio field.&nbsp;

#69: CAR PARK COMEDIAN w NAZEEM HUSSAIN

ARIA-award winning band 'Art of Fighting' talk to me about taking a twelve-year hiatus from music. I ask how they promoted their music before social media, we discuss their 'toilet tour' of Europe, and they also give a really cool history of Australian music!! We also delve into a conversation on how musicians measure and attain happiness and why people attempt to fill the void with external validation. Stay to the end I promise it's worth it : )&nbsp; Love, Ferg.&nbsp;
