Author and screenwriter Christian White, joined me to talk about his latest novel, ‘The Long Night’.
Topics discussed included:
- The suitably spooky origins and scenario that lead to ‘The Long Night’.
- Stone Tape Theory and how we are tethered by trauma and stories to certain physical places/spaces.
- Seeing the world and a scenario through the eyes of a creative. Em with her horror buff lens, Jodie with her painting.
- Horror - the freedom it affords Christian/creatives and how it allows us to tell relatable and realistic stories.
- Types of fear explored within the novel - from those typically found within a horror novel (the unknown lurking in the dark, a masked attacker) to those found within normal/everyday lives (male aggression, abused becoming abusers, related intergenerational trauma).
- And heaps more!
Thanks so much to Christian for talking with me about ‘The Long Night’ and everything else!

Seth Robinson introduces 'Unfolded' - a unique storytelling podcast with The University of Melbourne
Writer, producer, and academic, Seth Robinson, joined me to discuss ‘Unfolded’ - the University of Melbourne’s new podcast that he co-hosts with writer and novelist, Tony Birch.
Topics we talked about include:
- How ‘Unfolded’ started with one unique idea - bringing a writer’s stories to life with actors - and interviewing the writers about their work and their reaction to this vision of their work.
- Collaborative work - how ‘Unfolded’ is a creative community working together to produce something unique - and the positive experiences of that.
- The differences in imaginations and interpretations - how writers can be surprised by their own work through its interpretations by other creatives.
- How we as individuals can connect so easily, so completely, with audio storytelling.
- And heaps more!
Thanks very much to Seth for chatting with me about Unfolded on the show. You can listen to all current episodes on Apple podcasts and Spotify. Here’s the Spotify link:
