about

Four episode segment produced as the work experience kid for Triple J. It combines poetry, vox pops and original music to decorate the face of everyday space.

In 2003 I was keen to follow up my songwriting segment as The Bedroom Philosopher on the Morning Show. There was a new team onboard and they didn’t have a lot of budget.

I’d just moved to Sydney for a girl and was finding it all a tad overawing. To break the ice with my new city I felt like running around with a DAT recorder and using the authority of being ‘Justin from Triple J’ to create some casual, whimsical vignettes.

The Heart of the Bollocks features my original music and poetry – honed from regular appearances at Tug Dumbly’s alternative poetry night Bardfly’s at the Friend In Hand pub in Glebe. One of the punters there heard my segment and said he liked how it just washes over you.

Here is it, twenty years later – still sounding fresh i guess.
