Inherited

Hi!!

Welcome to our new three-part series, Love Stories.

Every Thursday for the next three weeks, I’ll sit down with a guest who tells me about their love story.

Today, I’m joined by Scott O’Halloran and his husband, Marcus Sellen.

Scott is a Melbourne-based content creator and co-host of The Luke and Sassy Scott Show, the hit podcast he shares with his brother, Luke. Scott and Marcus share so openly today. From the first time they connected and what it meant to truly find each other, to the journey of embracing their identities and building a life grounded in honesty, shared values, and deep commitment.

In this heartfelt conversation, Scott and Marcus reflect on the conversations that strengthened their relationship, the milestones that shaped them, and their incredible journey to parenthood. They generously share their experience with egg donation and surrogacy, and how welcoming twin boys into their lives has transformed their world and deepened their love.

This is Scott and Marcus’ love story.

Hello!

Today, I’m joined by Guy Sebastian. Guy is one of Australia’s most successful and grounded pop artists. After winning the first season of Australian Idol at just 21, Guy went on to sell more than 7 million records and earn seven ARIA Awards.

In this conversation, he reflects on discovering his love of music through school and church, the spontaneous decision to audition for Idol, and how life changed overnight in 2003. He also shares insights into his 20-year relationship with his high-school sweetheart and wife, Jules, his perspective on grief, and the values he hopes to pass on to his two sons, Hudson and Archie.

Hi!!

Welcome to our new three-part series, Love Stories.

Every Thursday for the next three weeks, I’ll sit down with a guest who tells me about their love story.

Today, I’m joined by Tully Smyth and her partner, Ned Rohrt.

Tully is a familiar and much-loved voice in Australia’s digital media space. She first captured the nation’s attention in 2010 when she entered the Big Brother house, and since then has built a deeply personal career as a writer and online creator. Over the years, Tully has shared her life with honesty and heart, opening up about love and heartbreak, the devastating loss of her beautiful mum, and her journey through egg freezing, creating a community that has grown alongside her.

Ned first came across Tully on the dating apps, but it wasn’t until a second swipe, two years later, that their story really began. From that moment on, everything clicked.

Now, Tully and Ned are stepping into their biggest chapter yet, as they prepare to welcome their first baby in July 2026.

Hello!

Today I speak to Fergus Neal. Fergus is a comedian, writer & the co-host of his podcast On it Off It with Louis Phillip, and he’s just about to tour his latest show Boy, across Australia. 

In this conversation, Fergus talks about his creative rituals, and how he’s managed anxiety and panic attacks since his early twenties. He reflects on his journey into comedy, how he feels about commenting on topical political issues online, about the concept behind Boy, and why he’s chosen to highlight modern masculinity, and the manosphere through comedy.

If you'd like to support Fergus, head to the website here to book your tickets to his upcoming show, Boy, or head to the On it Off it feed wherever you are listening right now!

Hi!!

Welcome to our new three-part series, Love Stories.

Every Thursday for the next three weeks, I’ll sit down with a guest who tells me about their love story.

Today, I sit down with Phoebe Simmonds, co-founder of The Memo, to share her personal love story with husband Shaun Caton.

In her mid-30s, single and career-focused, Phoebe was dating with intention when she met Shaun. Shaun was navigating life after the devastating loss of his former partner, Sam, and Phoebe stepped into their world with patience and care, embracing co-parenting Shaun’s young son, Tyler. With a strong desire to have children of her own, Phoebe and Shaun went on to grow their blended family, welcoming their son Remy.

Phoebe’s journey to motherhood might not have been what she expected, but it’s been one of the most rewarding experiences yet, and she’s been so grateful to have Shaun, who is no stranger to parenting, right by her side.
