In this weeks deadly episode, I sit down with proud Yuin, Thunghutti man and acclaimed artist Nooky for what was an amazing conversation, held on the iHeart Podcast stage at SXSW Sydney.

We yarn about his journey, from growing up in Nowra to making waves in the Australian music scene. Nooky shares personal stories of struggle, resilience, and triumph, discussing his upbringing, the influence of family and community, and how music became his path to empowerment.

Together, we explore the connection between music and storytelling in creating hope and unity for a more inclusive Australia. Nooky reflects on his work with We Are Warriors, his music collaborations with artists like Jessica Mauboy and the Presets, and his groundbreaking achievements in the industry, including four ARIA nominations!!

This episode is a celebration of strength, perseverance, and the enduring power of culture, showcasing Nooky’s inspiring journey and his mission to uplift the next generation. One of my favourite yarns so far! Do not miss this one! Part 2 drops next week.

Hosted by Mundanara Bayles who was born and raised in Redfern (Sydney) Australia and currently lives in Queensland. The Black Magic Woman Podcast is an uplifting conversational style program featuring mainly First Nations people from Australia and around the world sharing their stories about their journey to highlight the diversity amongst First Nations peoples and the resilience of her people. She hopes these stories inspire her listeners and also create a better understanding of what First Nations Peoples culture and history.



Mundanara is guided by Aboriginal Terms of Reference and focusses more on who people are rather than on what they do. Mundanara makes people feel relaxed and comfortable as if they were sitting around the kitchen table just having a yarn. It’s the way First Nations people have been building relationships and getting to know each other for tens of thousands of years. She draws from a long family history in the media industry and has grown up in culturally strong, politically active family who have been at the forefront of the Aboriginal Rights movement since the 1960’s.



Mundanara sees this platform as an opportunity to share her cultural knowledge and insights to her audience in a non confrontational way that brings people along with her to create change for a better Australia. To connect more with Mundanara check out the work she does with her elders at www.theblackcard.com.au.
