Guest Interviews

Director Suzi Jowsey Featherstone stops in to talk to Mikey about In My Mind, the new television show she's involved with that documents female mental health in New Zealand. Suzi's episode focusses on social media addiction and the dangers inherent in the validation cycles it provides.

Mikey sits backstage at Logan Campbell Centre with three members of Queens of the Stone Age a few mere hours before the very first show of their new tour. Promoting their seventh studio album, Villains, the band discuss guest spots, logistics and 'weirdo rippers'. Feat. notable appearances from Troy Van Leeuwen's compliments and Sarah's knowledge of Las Vegas royalty.

Holed up in a hotel room, high above the bustling junket crows below, Mikey chats to director Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Scott Pilgrim, Hot Fuzz, Spaced) about his brand new film, Baby Driver. A labour of musically inspired love, Wright talks to Mikey about finally finishing the passion project he's had kicking around his head (and iPod) for over twenty years.

The director of Semi-Permanent, Simon Velvin, drops in to the studio to talk to Mikey about rotting corpses, expensive surfboards, secret Putin screenings, and what we can expect from the NZ design event currently enjoying its fifteenth year.
