What we meant to say...
G’day sports fans,
If you’ve missed us or wondered if we’d fallen off the face of the planet, we apologize we’ve been busy making films, but surprise our podcast is back.
Gus and I have A quick word for you before we kick off season three of Outspoken.
The first episode of the new season, with Taylor Phinney, represents a homecoming of sorts. I want to say that Taylor’s story is in a way inextricably linked to mine, and that of thereabouts. His story feels personal, like meeting an estranged family member for the first time after twenty five years of living. As friends we’ve both been trying to figure out our place - reconcile our love for the sport that has shaped us, with our lived experience within it. It's taken years but finally it seems as though our paths are converging.
The new season of Outspoken with returning host Abby Levene, kicks off a family of new shows we are producing. One of which is with the better half side of the Morton family tree, Lachlan, and the other is with Taylor Phinney. After years of figuring out our place in this world, we realize it’s time that we just carve out our own. So we are, and we want to invite you in.
Along with the new shows In the coming days we are launching a new discord, and webpage which we encourage you all to check out and join. We’re also carving out a growing space for content, merch, and opportunities to bring the community together.
Thereabouts exists because of you, and we have settled on a sustainable model that allows us to create more, more frequently and at the highest quality. So we have come up with a way for our members to directly support the content and each other as we grow this thing, together. We are starting small, but it’s just the beginning. We would love it if you join us for the ride and help us to shape the future of Thereabouts
We believe that Sport can provide a world of new perspective, and I don’t mean that in a grandiose hand clappy, enlightened one kind of way. I mean that sport does change all of us, regardless of our mode of engagement, in subtle, personal ways. Ways that help us understand the world. Those are the experiences we want to share with you, because we feel that is important.
So with that, welcome to Outspoken season 3
