DC and Lisa celebrate the one-year anniversary of Into the Austenverse and reflect on global listenership and standout guests before welcoming award-winning writer/showrunner/executive producer Liz Doran to discuss Netflix’s My Brilliant Career. Doran shares how she came to the story via the film, pitched Netflix first, and developed a “dirty-hemmed, unbuttoned” Australian period drama with detailed realism, expanded First Nations storylines through First Nations writers and consultants, and a reimagined Harry with Chinese heritage, plus specific symbolic choices like native flowers and black cockatoo feathers. Actors Philippa Northeast (Sybylla) and Kate Mulvany (Augusta) join to discuss casting, building character through collaboration, working with Christopher Chung, filming key scenes like the New Year’s Eve party, and why the series’ themes of agency and ambition resonate worldwide, while hoping it inspires more Australian literary adaptations.

 ***Warning - there is a spicy discussion about Sybylla’s sex life in the interview with Pip and Kate.***
