The Daily Talk Show - Australian Podcast

An Australian daily talk show hosted by two friends that chronicled their lives and creative pursuits, concluding its run in May 2021 after 1022 episodes.

The brief

A time capsule of two Melbourne creators' lives, broadcast daily for over three years. The show is a candid, unscripted conversation between co-hosts, often involving their production staff, that covers everything from major news events like the COVID-19 pandemic to the minutiae of their personal lives, technical difficulties, and creative anxieties. Its end was as transparent as its production, with the final episodes serving as a public reflection on the project's legacy.

Its most distinctive feature was the relentless daily production schedule, resulting in a library of over 1000 episodes that act as a real-time diary. Unlike highly structured shows, its free-flowing, conversational format and the inclusion of the production team created a uniquely intimate and transparent listening experience.

What you'll be asked on this show

How the host interviews

This show does not follow a guest interview format. The hosts engage in a two-way conversational dynamic, sharing personal anecdotes, discussing current events, and reading listener emails. The format is explicitly built around the chemistry and banter between the co-hosts and their immediate team.

This is a co-host chat show, not an interview-based podcast. The style is a rapid, riff-based conversation between hosts Tommy Jackett and Josh Janssen, who frequently bring their off-mic producers into the discussion. The show concluded its run with episode 1022 on May 27, 2021.
