About the Show
The role models we need, the connection we need, that's how Hot Nerds describes itself. Since January 2025, the show has released 11 episodes, running weekly and totalling about 13 hours. Conversations stretch out: most land around 1 hr 14 min, with the range sitting between 1 hr 5 min and 1 hr 22 min. It's a long-form listen for anyone who wants artists and thinkers given room to talk.
Recent guests span music, writing and activism, DOBBY on country, connection and lost languages; Madeleine Gray on fiction and publishing; Dylin Hardcastle on novels, screenplays and art; plus BANQUET and YAGKI on the Australian music industry. A season-one recap brought Joel Rainbow and K.J. Hennessy together. If you like unhurried talk about creativity, representation and survival in the arts, it's worth a look on Spotify.
