Drew and Sam are actors. They haven’t won any Academy Awards yet, and neither of them is in line to be the new James Bond (sorry Sam), but between them they do have over half a century’s worth of experience in the industry. Many months ago a combination of boredom, significantly reduced work opportunities (thanks pandemic!) and overactive and under-stimulated imaginations inspired them to create a podcast, and somehow they’re still at it. Join the Drewling Samantics chaps every Sunday (or do ...

Childbirth is supposed to be empowering, but for many birthing people it is not. For Indigenous women, immigrant women and women of colour, birthing within the western healthcare system can be anything but affirming. It can feel unsafe. In this raw and challenging talks series, health researcher, clinician and nursing educator Dr Ruth De Souza (RMIT University) hosts conversations about birth, racism and cultural safety with change makers working within the maternal health-care sector to bre ...

Off the Rails Have no fear, today’s episode title isn’t suggesting that Drew and Sam are straying from the straight and narrow, nor have they lost all reason (well no more than usual anyway!) Thankfully, Drewling Samantics will continue to be the very best it can be. In actual fact, “Off the Rails” refers, rather appropriately, to this week’s fabul…

It's A No From Me The boys are back in the flat this week, and Drewling Samantics regulars will know that Drew and Sam being together in the same room means there’s potential for perhaps even more chat, banter (and beers) than usual!

These cases are “righteous,” explains host Michael Cowen, “because when a tractor trailer is backing across the roadway, it is very difficult for oncoming traffic to see the trailer in time to stop.” He and trial partner Laura Pazin Porter recently resolved just such a case, in which their clients’ father died after striking an 18-wheeler that was …

So... How did it go? It’s straight in in today’s episode, with a subject that is very much a regular topic of consideration for our podcasting pair - Drew and Sam are discussing auditions! A necessary evil some might say, but actors and performers spend a great deal of time trying to get, prepare for, and (with any luck!) nail them! Castings, test-…

In 2023, an American Bar Association report revealed that 81% of lawyers who use social media use LinkedIn. “That sounds like a huge number, but I guarantee you they don't maximize their use of the platform,” Delisi Friday says to host Michael Cowen.

Tween Sensation It could be said that every actor or performer takes some form of risk when working in the industry or has “skin in the game” to use modern parlance.
