G’day, welcome to How Ya Goin’?

You’ll know my mate in this episode as the most talented and best-looking Cosmic Psycho: the star of the show, John “Mad Macka” McKeering.

Macka is one of the most interesting blokes I know. Not only can he shred like no one else, but as he tells it, he’s had four careers.

The first of them, was as a swimming coach. He was bloody handy as a swimmer himself, but found his calling helping others hone their craft.

His second career was being a lawyer and his third was as a public servant. He’s also got a degree in political science and a master of arts in musicology.

But of course, his most constant career, is as a musician. Before he started with the Psychos, he was one-third of the Brisbane band, The Onyas. They played balls-to-the-wall punk rock that didn’t give a shit what anyone thought.

Which is why he slipped right in after Robbie Rocket left us.

Get it inta ya.

How Ya Goin'? is produced by Sam Loy, a documentary maker, podcast and radio producer, and wannabe rock star. He started making audio content as a hobby, producing the documentary show Human/Ordinary. The right people heard the show and he started getting offers for work.

Since then, he's worked with the likes of Louis Theroux (The Louis Theroux Podcast), Marc Fennel (Not Alone - Beyond Blue), and Alexis Fernandez (Rule Benders - Samsung), and is very chuffed about making a 10 part book adaptation about an infamous 1944 plot to kill Hitler (Treason).

He has enjoyed every moment of working on How Ya' Goin'?, except for driving home from Ross' farm late at night, dodging 37 kangaroos with a death wish.

G’day, welcome to How Ya Goin’?

You’ll know my mate in this episode as the guitarist and lead singer for Magic Dirt. Finding their feet at the legendary Barwon Club in Geelong, Magic Dirt were pioneers of gritty Aussie punk-rock.

They’ve played with Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Spiderbait, Powderfinger, and Pavement even sang about them in a song. The soundtrack to Australia is filled with Magic Dirt tracks like Dirty Jeans, Ice, and Plastic Loveless Letter.

And as a solo artist, Adalita has found critical acclaim through the three albums she has made so far. She has become such an icon, such a bloody legend, that she doesn’t even need a last name for you to know who I’m talking about.

Adalita came up to the farm back in August for a visit. It was still a bit chilly, so we parked ourselves in the shed right next to the fire, and has this little chat.

Get it inta ya.

G’day, welcome to How Ya Goin’?

You’ll know my mate in this episode as the drummer for Mudhoney. He’s one of the original members, and has been twirling his sticks with them since they started way back in 1988.

Dan and I go way back. I first met him in Melbourne when I went along to see Mudhoney at the Prince of Wales. And there started a friendship that’s lasted nearly forty years.

Dan was there in Seattle when grunge took the world by storm. Without Mudhoney, a lot of people reckon grunge wouldn’t have been what it was.

Mudhoney have made 11 albums over the years and have played with the Psychos heaps. Dan and I are such good mates, that when I asked him to come play with us on our upcoming tour, he went straight to find his passport.

We had our little chat via the wonders of modern technology back in August.

Get it inta ya.
