Welcome to Not So PG with deadly duo Matty Mills and Brooke Blurton. They're here to talk about their fast-paced lives, love, relationships, and the juicy gossip you WON’T get from certain tabloid websites. Matty and Brooke grew up without any of their own Parental Guidance; Not So PG is the podcast for anyone who had to pull themselves up and take control of their life. So buckle up and get ready for hot takes, dishing the dirt, and taking the piss like only these two First Nation queer icons can.
After seeing some negative comments online about Felicia Foxx's cultural Mardi Gras outfit over the weekend, Matty is firing back at the haters in support of the Queer, First Nations community.
Plus the director and star of the latest stage adaptation of Picnic At Hanging Rock (Ian Michael & Lorinda May Merrypor) stop by to tell us all about how they're helping re-tell the story for a modern and multi-cultural world.

The conversation is kicking off once again about Invasion Day, Jan 26, Australia Day (whatever you might call it) and it's feeling like groundhog day.
Some mob are exhausted talking about it, some mob are still pushing for the date to be changed.
We wanted to reflect our feelings on the debate today, and share why it's still important to be talking about it and why our community is STILL pushing for change.
So that we as one can all celebrate together with honour and respect for the past.
