Jack Bloomfield is one of the most interesting young entrepreneurs Australia has produced.
At 16, he was mowing lawns for seed money and making $3,000 a day selling products online. By 17, he'd raised $1 million. By 19, he'd moved to New York alone, knocking on doors to meet e-commerce executives. By 24, he'd built and sold a multi-million-dollar tech business before moving to Hong Kong to take on Australia's building materials industry with his new company Bloom Build.
We talk about raising capital, facing rejection, building businesses from nothing, and why he believes leaving Australia might be the most patriotic thing a young entrepreneur can do..

Paul Gallen has had 19 professional fights, captained the NSW Blues in State of Origin and played 32 Tests for Australia. Now, at 45, he’s stepping back into the ring against a man 15 years younger, 30 kilos heavier and 8 inches taller. This is a raw conversation about where that toughness actually comes from: growing up in Western Sydney, being kicked out of home at 13, and building a life on a refusal to quit. No PR spin, no highlight reel. Just Paul Gallen, talking straight.

Before the luxury cars, multimillion-dollar properties and headline-making giveaways, Adrian Portelli was broke and determined to succeed.
Growing up in Melbourne's western suburbs, Adrian refused to take a conventional job, spent years building businesses and sacrificed almost everything in pursuit of success. Now one of Australia's most recognisable entrepreneurs, Adrian sits down with Mark Bouris to tell the story behind his rise. He breaks down the LMCT Plus business model, explains how he turned giveaways into a powerful marketing strategy, and opens up about his disputes with regulators, his move to Dubai and his next major business ventures.

Four months ago, Leah Stewart went for a swim at Coogee Beach and woke up from an 11-day coma missing an arm. She was attacked by a great white shark in the middle of the day, close to shore, doing everything right.
This is the full, unfiltered account — what it felt like to be dragged underwater, how she fought back, the near-death experience that almost took her, and the one thing that pulled her back. If you've ever wondered what it actually takes to survive the unsurvivable, this is it.

In this episode of Straight Talk, I sit down with economist Chris Joye for round five, a frank conversation about government spending, immigration, productivity and Australia’s economic future.
Chris argues that Australia’s challenges run deeper than events in the Middle East. He examineswhat he describes as $660 billion in additional government debt since 2022, the pressure population growth is placing on housing and infrastructure, and an expanding public service alongside declining private sector productivity.
He also questions the Reserve Bank’s “narrow path” strategy, whether political influence has shaped its approach to inflation, and the cost to Australian households. I then ask Chris what needs to change: how to rein in spending, lift productivity and get Australia’s economy back on track.

Australian house prices are down 7% from their national peak — and according to SQM Research’s Louis Christopher, there’s an 80% probability they’ll fall another 5–10% over the next six months. In this Straight Talk roundtable, Mark Bouris sits down with Louis and auctioneer Tom Panos to unpack what’s happening in Australia’s property market, why buyers are losing confidence and where prices could go next. From sharp falls on the Gold Coast to first home buyers walking away, rising government spending and the risk of recession, they examine what’s gone wrong and what needs to change.

Adam Gilchrist built one of the greatest cricket careers Australia has ever seen — and almost nobody knows how close he came to losing it. In this episode of Straight Talk, Mark Bouris sits down with Gilly to unpack the mindset behind elite performance: what it's like to get booed onto the field at 22, how a single email from a mate mid-Test-match changed the way he thinks forever, and why the 2005 Ashes nearly broke him. Plus, the real story behind his tequila business, El*Arquero and what every Australian entrepreneur can learn from it.

Australian rugby has a massive opportunity ahead of it. A home World Cup in 2027, a new Wallabies coach and a chance to rebuild one of the great sporting teams in the country.
Les Kiss is the new head coach of the Wallabies, a former Queensland State of Origin player and one of the few coaches to have worked at the highest level across both rugby league and rugby union.
In this episode of Straight Talk, I sit down with Les to unpack his journey from growing up in Bundaberg to coaching the Springboks, Ireland, the Queensland Reds and now the Wallabies.
We get into the real problems facing Australian rugby, why so much of our best talent is being lost overseas, what South Africa has done differently to build extraordinary depth, the lessons Les learned working inside the Springboks system and what Australia needs to do to become a genuine force again.
Les also opens up about his coaching philosophy, why he refuses to obsess over outcomes, the importance of his “What’s Important Now” mindset and what it will take to build a Wallabies side capable of doing something special on home soil in 2027.

Alex Volkanovski walked into Mark's studio years ago with no idea what his brand was. Now he's a former UFC featherweight world champion, part-owner of a fight gear company, building a media presence through Cooking with Volk, and defending his belt at 38 — by choice, not necessity. This is a conversation about identity, purpose, and what happens when elite athletes build something that lasts beyond the sport. Volk is as calculated in business as he is in the octagon, and this conversation proves it. For more content like this:

Johnathan Thurston didn't make the Broncos academy as a kid — and that rejection lit a fire that carried him to four Dally M Medals, three Golden Boots, and the most iconic grand final moment in NRL history. But this conversation goes well beyond football. JT breaks down the chess match inside rugby league in a way you've never heard before — body language reads, defensive line manipulation, kicking routines under grand final pressure. And then he talks about the work he's doing now, pulling kids away from the justice system and back into school, one program at a time. This is what a champion actually looks like when the jersey comes off.

Two journalists from The Australian spent years digging into the real story behind tech giant Atlassian, and turned it into a book.
It traces how two UNSW graduates built a global software company from a Glebe share house into a NASDAQ listed giant worth more than $100 billion at its peak. Along the way, Mike Cannon-Brookes and Scott Farquhar became best men at each other's weddings and eventually bought mansions next door to each other in Point Piper.
But the book also uncovers how internal tensions, diverging lifestyles and a neighbourhood renovation dispute ultimately drove a wedge between them, turning one of Australia's greatest business partnerships into one of its most quietly broken.

But what drives a man who's already achieved everything rugby league has to offer? In this episode of Straight Talk, Teddy discusses the self-doubt that never goes away, the mindset work he's done since 2015, and the brutal discipline of consistency that separates the talented from the great.

The conversation moves from classroom economics to gas royalties, corporate lobbying, the staffer-to-lobbyist pipeline, and what a genuine fix might actually look like.

Mark Webber is 1 of only 5 Australians to win a Formula 1 Grand Prix and a 9-time race winner who competed at the highest level of motorsport for over a decade alongside Michael Schumacher, Sebastian Vettel, and Lewis Hamilton.
In this episode, Mark traces his journey from being a ball boy for the Canberra Raiders in Queanbeyan to holding up that 1st-place trophy on the infamous Monaco podium... twice. Webber took me through the decisions, mentors, and mindset shifts that defined his incredible career, covering how he went from a 2-race contract to a successful Formula 1 career, what he believes all the greats have in common, his near-fatal crash at 280km/h, and working with Oscar Piastri.
This conversation is as much about what it takes to build an elite life as it is about Mark's incredible journey. You don't want to miss this one.

It’s all very serious today, so it was refreshing to have a funny conversation.
Nikki Osborne didn’t just get the Prime Minister on her podcast. She DMed him, turned up at the Lodge in Canberra wearing a pith helmet, and got him talking about things you’d never hear in a press conference.
In this episode of Straight Talk, I sit down with the comedian behind Bush Barbie to find out how she pulled it off and why her alter ego has tapped into something a lot of Australians are quietly desperate for. It’s a conversation about comedy, character, political correctness, and what it really takes to build a career from nothing over more than twenty years.

David Pocock is a former Wallabies captain turned independent Senator for the ACT. Born on a farm in Zimbabwe, he arrived in Australia at 14 after his family lost their land in the seizures of the late 1990s, found his feet through sport, and went on to represent the Wallabies before swapping the ruck for the red benches of the Senate.
I sat down with David for an honest conversation about where he came from, how sport shaped him, and why he decided to take on the major parties as an independent.
We speak about:
- Growing up on a farm in Zimbabwe and the violence that forced his family out
- Arriving in Australia at 14 and finding belonging through sport
- The rugby road from Western Force at 17 to captaining the Wallabies
- Why he ran as an independent and what shocked him most about Parliament
- The widow's tax and how his team found the flaw the major parties missed
- His push to rein in gambling advertising and what it is doing to young Australians
- A 25% gas export tax and the question of who our natural resources really belong to
- The squeeze on small business and how government procurement could back Aussie firms
- Why he thinks Parliament needs a lot more long-term thinking

Steve Baxter is a former Shark Tank investor, ex-Army guided weapons technician, and founder of Beaten Zone Venture Partners, a fund backing Australian defence startups and pushing them into the US market where the real money is.
In this conversation, Steve takes us from growing up in outback Queensland and joining the army at 15, through building and selling one of Australia's biggest dial-up internet providers, to why he believes private capital — not government grants — is the key to Australia's sovereign defence capability.
We get into cardboard drones that took out Russian aircraft in Kursk, robot dogs armed for the battlefield, a hypersonic aircraft built in Brisbane, and why 83% of Australia's super funds won't touch defence investment because of ESG. Steve also gives his blunt take on the Iran war, why he thinks deterrence beats conflict every time, and what he'd say to anyone about investing in the business of war.

As Head of Research at Cotality (formerly CoreLogic), Lawless sits at the centre of every major shift in Australian housing. In this conversation, he and Mark Bouris go deep on what the federal budget has done to investor confidence, why the numbers are deteriorating faster than the data can capture, and what the property market realistically looks like from here. Lawless also walks through the economics of holding an investment property in 2026, city by city, with unusual candour about where the opportunities may eventually re-emerge.

Chris Joye is one of Australia's sharpest economic minds. He's a fund manager, AFR columnist, and architect of the indices used to measure Australian house prices.
In this conversation, Joye delivers a blunt assessment of where Australia is headed economically. He argues the federal budget was a defining moment that exposed the government's agenda: taxing the private sector to fund an expanding public service. He connects that policy shift to rising inflation, falling house prices, and a growing brain drain that few politicians are willing to confront honestly.
Topics covered:
• Why the federal budget was a turning point for Australian economic confidence
• Sydney and Melbourne house prices falling at double-digit annual rates
• The RBA's inflation battle and why interest rates may need to go higher
• Australia's national and state debt crisis and what it means for future taxes
• The case for cutting the NDIS, selling the NBN, and raising the GST
• Why high-net-worth Australians and entrepreneurs are quietly leaving
• Trump's economic model and what Australia could learn from US prosperitySubscribe to the Mentored newsletter here: https://the-mentored-platform-pty-ltd.myklpages.com/l/WWJGc5
