The REAL STUFF is a podcast by Hunter Johnson, Founder of two organisations redefining masculinity; Man Cave, and Stuff That Matters. As the world changes and power jostles for position behind purpose, masculinity, as we know it, has reached an inflection point. The typecast REAL man is not working for the planet, not working for communities and families, and it’s not working for men. Hunter is no stranger to initiating vulnerable conversations, he’s spent significant time in the ring when it comes to emotions, having worked with over 85,000 young men across Australia through Man Cave Programs. With suicide being the leading cause of death for men under 45, and one woman murdered by her intimate partner every week in Australia, can talking about what’s really going on for men break the cycle? Hunter believes it can. The REAL STUFF brings wisdom to the wisecracks, and checkmate to the chat... although there’s no shortage of banter in these fortnightly episodes.

Client Liaison | Monte Morgan | The Creative Zone #5
Real STUFF puts creativity, mental health and transcendental experiences on the agenda this week with Monte Morgan, better recognised as one half of cult pop duo Client Liaison. We’re not going to lie, having participated in screaming throngs as this guy strutted the festival stage over the past ten years, we may be feeling just a teensy bit awestruck. But rest assured, Monte is as down-to-earth, thoughtful, and authentic as they come. Get ready to unpack a swag of good stuff including how to get in the flow of creative inspiration, why Prince-fandom is not the end game, and how a wellbeing journal could save you from yourself.
In this episode, get real insights on STUFF like:
“We always said that we straddled the underground world and the pop world, but we've put a real emphasis on having greater meaning in our lyrics, making people think twice.”
“Growing up I was a Prince fan, I was a dancer, I used to dress pretty crazy. I’d go to the country and people would heckle me. I always found Australian masculine culture quite closed… but we’ve ended up writing songs that flip that narrative, and celebrate Australia’s diversity in a way.”
“We used to go and play on these tiny stages in the early days, and we’d bring our own smoke machines… The last gig we did we had flames on stage! We’ve always thought people listen first through their eyes.”
“There's something powerful about breaking people's expectations through performance. When you go and see someone perform at first you feel discomfort for them, and you go, 'Oh, no, please don't, that’s so embarrassing.' But when you see them have confidence up there, it brings a confidence out in you. Yeah. I love that connection.”
