Tammin Sursok pulls back the curtain on what it’s really like to grow up in the spotlight. From breaking out as a teenager on Home and Away to building a career in the US on shows like Pretty Little Liars, Tammin has experienced the highs and pressures of fame from a young age.

Now hosting her podcast The Shit Show, she’s sharing a very different side of her life, one that’s far more raw, honest and grounded in reality.

In this episode of Behind the Mic, Tammin opens up about the challenges of being a child star, what it was really like moving from Australia to the US in pursuit of success, and the pressure that comes with growing up in an industry built on image.

She also shares the struggles she faced behind the scenes, how her perspective has shifted since becoming a mum, and why she felt compelled to start a podcast that reflects how tough life can be, even when everything looks perfect from the outside.

Honest, vulnerable and deeply personal, this conversation explores identity, reinvention, and what happens when the spotlight fades and real life takes over.

Whether you’re interested in entertainment, podcasting, or the realities of life behind fame, this episode offers a powerful look at the person behind the public persona.

Behind the Mic with Mike E (Mike Etheridge) is the podcast where Australia’s biggest podcast and audio creators reveal who they really are.

These aren’t promo interviews. They’re honest, relaxed and often surprisingly personal conversations about career pivots, pressure, ego, burnout, ambition, personal life, relationships and what it really takes to build an audience in audio today.

It’s about the person behind the brand. The doubts, the risks, the reinventions and the moments that changed everything. After more than 14 years in breakfast radio (Mike E & Emma) and still deep in the audio game, Mike E understands the egos, expectations and everything in between. That insider perspective makes for conversations that are raw, revealing and unfiltered.

Whether you’re chasing your own goals, curious about the people behind the voices you hear every day, or just love honest conversation, Behind the Mic dives into the human side of success, ambition and resilience.

Real conversations. No scripts. Just the truth behind the mic.
