This week on The Get Down we swing back into the Hip-Hop side of things annd chat with Adelaide legend Kultar Ahluwalia fka Koolta. Kultar has been doing his thing brilliantly for over two decades now and in my opinion has flown under the radar for a lot of that time. Kultar is a humble and down to earth human with a heart of gold. I challenge anyone to find someone who has a bad word to say about the bloke. I really enjoyed this conversation and regret not connecting on a closer level with...

This week on The Get Down I was lucky enough to share a few hours with notorious prison escapee turned author, John Killick. I have never had a grandfather, but speaking with John felt like how it would be if I had one. A wealth of information with a gift of story telling blended with a willingness to share, combined with a level head devoid of ego. I could have spoken to John for 8 hours and still been on the edge of my seat asking for more. I am extremely grateful for this opportunity and...

This week on The Get Down we follow on with the path of redemption and selfless acts of reimbursing the community at large. Beats chops it up with the super inspirational and dare I say charismatic, Jeffrey Morgan. Jeffrey spent his early years growing up in the tough and infamous suburb of Redfern, Sydney and through a desire to merely survive, soon found himself engaging in some serious criminal behaviour resulting in some pretty heavy prison sentences. To say he has turned his life around...

This week on The Get Down we switch it up a little bit and are joined by convicted bank robber Russell Manser. Russell has lived a pretty different life to what some of us may call "Normal" from robbing banks, escaping custody and overcoming a dangerous heroin addiction, Russell is nothing less than a survivor! This story of redemption is one of inspiration, however it does contain some very heavy content. Listener discretion is advised. I am confident to rate this episode 18+ If you feel you...

This week on The Get Down we have some hilarity to help all those in Lock Down across the country. Director, Actor and Creator of the Australian Comedy Classics "FAT PIZZA" and "HOUSOS" Paul Fenech AKA Franky Falzoni joins Beats in the Ivory Tower for a chat and talks about his career in the film industry, his disdain for authority, Covid and even discloses his thongin' wish list.

Grab the vacuum and put a load of washing on. Press play, thank me later... Regards,  Red Whine.

This week on The Get Down we are joined by a special member of the Australian music scene. In particular, the Australian Hip-Hop scene, Plutonic Lab AKA Pluto. Pluto has been actively making music for 25 years and as the title of the episode suggests, he has his finger in MANY pies across all genres of music. Beats chats with Pluto about his early days as a kid, his time with record labels Nuffsaid & Obese Records, right up to his touring with the Hilltop Hoods. This was an interesting...

This week on The Get Down Beats sits down and chops it up with an old friend and pioneer of the Australian Graffiti scene, PHO.  From his early beginnings painting Adelaide's myriad of blank canvases all the way through to his documentation of his youth in the recently released book 'WILDFIRE' Pho speaks openly and honestly from a perspective very few have. It was really cool catching up with Pho after all these years. I'm really glad we made this happen. "WILDFIRE" Australian Graffiti live...

This week on The Get Down we celebrate NAIDOC week with a special guest Brian Warner. Brian is a Kabi Kabi traditional owner and Native Title applicant on the Sunshine Coast QLD. Brian has worked many roles and is an inspiration to people of all walks of life. I really enjoyed this interview and our yarn could have gone on for longer and I don't doubt we will have many more conversations. Getting this episode aired was a close call due to some serious technical difficulties which resulted in...

This week on The get Down, Beats chops it up with the one and only Brent “Simmo” Simpson from "The Clink Podcast.”  Brent has been through hell and back and now dedicates his time to help others in the same boat and endeavours to discourage youth going down the same path. Brent speaks  openly and truthfully and I am truly inspired by his courage. Sit back, have a listen and do yourself a favour and check out his show “The Clink” If you don't know, well now you know... *LINK...

This week on the get down we speak to another gun with the gun, Schirm. Beats chats with Schirm as he walks us through his entry into the tattoo industry, his love of Hip-Hop and his love affair with the Granite Island Fairy Penguin. Schirm is humble, funny and most of all, super talented at his craft. I am honored to have some of his original work tattooed on me. This was a free flowing convo that saw me level out half a carton of beer. Luckily i had the next day off. Do yourself a favour...

This week on The Get Down we are joined by a guest who was just last week a stranger in the world to me. I met Georgie at a skate park whilst out with my son and observed she had a prosthetic leg from the knee down.  We struck up a conversation and I was immediately blown away by her story and I asked her to stop talking and invited her onto the show. To my delight she said YES! I found Georgie to be incredibly brave, honest and funny, all rolled up with an infectious laugh to boot. I commend...

This week on The Get Down Beats chats with Adelaide veteran producer and rapper Pound To The Credit. Pound has been around the traps for a long time and is back after a ten year hiatus. Pound is the producer of the introduction beat at the start of every episode and is a gun on the boards. He walks us through his journey in Hip-Hop, life and how to chat up a dolphin without attracting sharks.  Disclaimer: No fish or Sea-life were harmed in the making of this episode.

This week on The Get Down we step away from Hip-Hop once again and Beats chats with Marshall from Third Eye Tattoo Studio down in Melbourne. Not only is Marshall incredibly talented at tattooing but I found he has an uncanny ability to have a great conversation convincing you that you have known him and been his friend for a long time. This may be due to all the hours he has spent talking to strangers in his tattoo chair, or it could be you follow his Only Fans account, and that's why you...

This week on The Get Down Beats chats with the Godfather of U.K Hip Hop, Rodney P.  Rodney has pioneered a definitive sound and carved a pathway for many upcoming artists in the U.K for over three decades, all the while being true and honest to himself and his music. His career has allowed him to navigate through a variety  of story telling mediums. From rap to radio, right through to television and documentary making, Rodney has conquered all. I was a little nervous interviewing Rodney as he...

This week on The Get Down we are joined by the Adelaide O.G graffiti writer turned world renowned artist that is Jimmy C aka James Cochran. Jimmy made his bones back in the early 90's honing his skills illegally in the cold dark streets & train yards of Adelaide, South Australia. Many would have dismissed Jimmy as nothing but a vandal and hooligan, but he is living proof that if you put your mind to it and trust the process, you can go on to make a living doing what you truly love. As a...

This week on The Get Down we chat with rapper, producer, graphic designer and avid dog lover, Realizm. I have know Realz for a long time, and although were were never the closest of friends, we have had many intellectual chats over the years and I have always had respect for him. Always well composed and armed with a good sense of humour and able to be razzed up without getting upset. More recently Realizm has utilized his talents to follow his dreams and now lives in his self sustainable...

This week on The Get Down we are joined by a good mate and triple threat talent, Mnops. Skilled in the arts of rapping, graffiti and tattooing, Mnops has a very humble outlook on his abilities. On top of his talents, Mnops is a great father and has a very good sense of humour and takes life as it comes whilst giving next to zero f***s about anything that is not close to his heart. I have had many a good yarn with Mnops in his tattoo chair and could talk to him forever and not get bored. I am...

This week on The Get Down we step away from Hip Hop again and chat with A.F.L Player Cam Ellis-Yolmen. Cam is a former Adelaide Crows player but now dons the Brisbane Lions Guernsey. We chat to Cam about his footy career, injuries, the stolen generation and even find out his Rap name should he ever dabble in hip hop music. It was great to hear from Cam and learn about his journey within footy as well as what he intends to do once he moves on from the game. I found Cam to be very interesting...
