Dan Ilic of A Rational Fear is a very old friend of mine, and a relentless participator in things, creator of work and the genesis of jobs for other people. We chatted in our separate houses in Sydney Lockdown about climate change, helplessness and activism.

Cal Wilson talks to me over a fancy hotel tea about creativity, lockdown gardening and self expression.

Craig Quartermaine is a friend of the podcast and a friend of mine. We had a lovely chat about work, success, racism and opportunities deserved and undeserved.

Adam Richard came on the podcast to talk about weight, work, how to dress, giving up comedy and being a nerd.

Visa is a thinker who thinks about thinking - I've known him for a while on twitter, and I've always enjoyed watching the process of him organising thoughts in webs and threads. This episode we talked about enthusiastic nerdery, online selfhood and making connections.

Colt Cabana is a lovely human, a deep thinker in disguise. We talked about how covid affected the world of wrestling, the upside of being objectified and how to use your body.

Justin Hamilton is a good friend and an excellent interlocutor. We discussed culture, age, artistry and existential angst. A lovely time.

The brilliant Dara O Briain came on Tea With Alice as part of his international lockdown podcast tour to talk about online work, throwing jokes up in the air, work process, joke memory, and how he keeps coming back to the theme of pole dancers.
