A Walkley award-winning journalist, documentary maker, and the creative mind behind the acclaimed series and podcast ‘Stuff the British Stole’, Fennell’s career is a masterclass in versatility and perseverance. Marc Fennell has a ‘natural nervous energy’. At least, that’s how he describes what otherwise comes across as an unlimited source of dedication and work ethic. ”I have a natural anxiousness about what comes next,” Fennell shares on a recent episode of the Variety Australia podcast, recorded at JMC Academy’s Sydney campus. It’s why, in large part, he’s created such a multi-hyphenate career . “If you put all of your hopes and dreams on a singular project, it's a very dangerous thing to do to your mental health. My solution to that has been to do lots of different things.”
