Yumi Stynes | Ideas at the House

From her breakthrough role as a VJ on Channel V in the early 2000s to her wildly popular podcasts and best-selling books, Yumi Stynes has been a pop culture fixture on Australian screens and airwaves for the past two decades. Here, she chats with Edwina Throsby about her rich and varied career: moving from country Victoria and into the media spotlight, the heady days of the early millennium music industry, and that time she called out Kerri-Anne Kennerley on national television. Buoyed by her hard work, fierce wit and sense of justice, Stynes emerges as an inspiration, whether it’s as a parent, podcaster, or someone who isn’t afraid to speak the truth to Australia’s racism.
