You've Gotta Start Somewhere is the podcast that's all about pulling the curtain back on the wizard of showbiz to reveal exactly what it takes to build a successful media career.

Each week I'll be chatting with well-known personalities and celebrities about the lengths they went to, to get a foot in the door, what it's taken to stay there, the best and worst aspects of the business and what advice they have for people wanting to get into the industry.

In this introductory episode I take you through some of the highlights from upcoming interviews with Wippa (Fitzy & Wippa, NOVA 969), Sylvia Jeffreys (The Today Show, Channel 9), Merrick Watts (Merrickville, Triple M), Peter Berner (The B Team, Sky News) and Sam Mac (Sunrise, Channel 7).
