Hi! My name is Josh, this me blog.


The dance of pleasing the social media algorithims of the world’s biggest companies, whilst being beat to death by strangers with their comments displeased me so now I’m here.

I wish I were the kind of person who could just live without broadcasting. But there’s an animal inside me — right down in the marrow — that keeps asking ‘can you see me?’ and silence has never once soothed it.


  • Britt and I and The Pop-Up Wedding​ are Maui bound today. Hele Mai 'Oe I Ko Maua Male 'Ana!

  • New York, I love you, but it's time to say goodbye for now. We're off to America's Tasmania, Hawaii!

  • Guy jumps on train and screams "What I have in this bag here today" and my heart skips a beat. Never been so thankful to meet a beggar.

  • I'm about to walk into a @ThatKevinSmith Q&A but just realised I don't have an actual question requiring an answer.

  • I'm in ex-pat city: Williamsburg, NY.

  • What if there were no hypothetical situations?

  • I'm in America at the moment, so I'm not sure what's right or wrong in Australia today, but can we boo Bronwyn Bishop? Asking for a friend.

  • The view to Australia, from America: a whole country trying to justify booing someone. That's really messed up. I don't want to come home.

  • I've left my love in New York City, but am now in Maryland for the @iapwo officiant's conference!

  • You know the problem when you start listing favourite podcasts? You miss people. I love everyone's podcasts :)

  • With the obvious exceptions of my Aussie favs, @MolksTVTalk @iLoveGGLetters @oshergunsberg

  • Jet-lag's a bitch.

  • Ummmm ... Apple's Keynote supports animated gifs. In other news, my slides for next week just became awesome.

  • I spend half an hour every week not knowing what @gruber is talking about, after two hours inside Yankee Stadium today I still have no idea.

  • Going to a Yankees game today!!!!/

  • We're the losers that FaceTime our cats from a Starbucks

  • 6am in New York and I'm at Starbucks again. Oh jet lag how you curse me.

  • Saw an ad for Ello in Manhattan. Ello. That network we never used again.

  • I'm failing at assimilating to New York time. Just slept 10am to 6pm, which is midnight to 8am Queensland time.

  • After 41 minutes of it I'm almost convince that crazy guy on a faux conference call inside Starbucks might be on a real conference call.

  • Some poor sod isn't getting their @FedEx package today. I just saw a guy lift a box from a FedEx trolley on Wall St!

  • LA.

  • Anyone got a #Beme invite code?

  • Did you know that if you lick someone's elbow while they're not looking, they won't feel it.

  • If it's within the rules why is Browny Bishop reimbursing it? It's like saying "I didn't kill the guy, but to remove doubt I'll go to jail"

  • So so good to catch up with the superstar, @jfkjohan, today! Let's make it less than 6 years next time bro 😉

  • When my dad was my age he had a 6yo son named Josh. This explains his disdain when I tell him what Britt and I are up to.

  • "I wonder if Busta Rhyme has updated his operating system" #Beats1

  • "High on legal marijuana" is a lyric in the new song from @halseymusic 'New Americana' heard on @beats1. Watch out Snoop Lion.

  • Does exclusive mean we just have something now? I exclusively have a photo of Taylor Swift.

  • Exciting that so many news outlets have an exclusive on this new Harper Lee book.

  • "First name is free! Last name is dumb!" - Pharrell "Dad Joke" Williams

  • I've been waiting for the Blackberry book, "Losing the Signal" to become available on Kindle in Australia for months, yay book industry.

  • . @statravelAU you're wasting money on a sponsored tweet that is 24 hours out of date

  • In an email I'm reading right now exists the scariest three words a creative will ever read: "The Website Committee".

  • Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme is hosting a show on #Beats1 right now with Fred Armiston. Such a good listen!

  • "Sometimes I get emotional over fonts" - Kanye West. I know those feels, Yeezus.

  • It looks like Aust is the only remaining market where MOG operates, it's been merged into Beats, merged into Apple Music everywhere else.

  • Telstra still cagey on MOG, which they supply through BigPond, which is owned by Beats, and such, @AppleMusic ... @Telstra's music page=0.

  • Seeing Samuel L. Jackson on Bet365 ads make me wonder whether he has cancer and is trying to prepare a kitty for his family before he dies.

  • Weddings in Queensland this weekend will not have something blue out of respect for the NSW team's loss tonight. Our condolences #origin

  • #Beats1 @AppleMusic must have read about Triple M dissing them on @_radiotoday so now they're advertising during #Origin ... SCA vs Apple.

  • Origin, the original "go back to where you came from"

  • Cafe owner just said he's looking for a "takes no prisoners" kind of person.

  • Desperately want to go and help the poor thing, floundering around in this interview, I think he's almost crying!

  • Sitting at a cafe listening to this poor kid being interviewed for an apprentice chef gig is killing me.

  • Does @Beats1's paying adult audience really require censored songs? Even the DJs swear. Let's go un-censored, @zanelowe #beats1

  • ALWAYS ON #BEATS1

  • I have strong positive feelings about #beats1

  • Grooooooove is in the heaarrrttt #Beats1
