About the episode

Today Sarah sits down with Jack and Falcs from The Inspired Unemployed to chat about Tall Poppy Syndrome. They discuss why being an 'Aussie battler' is so engrained in our culture, rooting for the underdog and why people feel bitter when they see others are over-achieving. Also, being in the public eye, starting businesses and imposter syndrome. If you didn't know, Sarah got her start in podcasting at 21 years old after she was tapped on the shoulder by Spotify who were looking for help on a new show they were developing with comedy duo and influencers - The Inspired Unemployed. It was years of building that show with Jack and Falcs that gave her enough experience and confidence to then start Big Small Talk. Also, don't worry Inspired fans, she's working on getting their show back in studio soon too!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
