Summary
Today I’m joined by my high schoolmate Luke.
Luke and I attended FinFest and the Sydney FIRE meet-up over the weekend. I thought it would be fun to recap the event/meetup because we both had a blast.
Some of the topics we cover in today’s episode are:
- The FinFest event (02:51)
- The presentations on the day (08:05)
- Food truck lines (09:18)
- Bumping into others from the FIRE community (15:51)
- The FIRE meet-up (30:08)
- Noisy venues (31:06)
- Other content creators coming to the meet-up (33:20)

No links this week 😅
That was pretty ordinary pod mate – you’ve done better… Please don’t be compelled to make a pod… Cheers 🥂
Thanks for the feedback Sam. I’ll endeavour to improve on the content
Sounds like the festival/conference was a success, it’d be great to have something like that down in Melbourne as well.
Thanks for the mention as one of the old timers of the Aussie blogging scene as well!
I’m looking forward to a Melbourne meetup, there’s a good chance I’d be able to make the journey up for that! Have you thought about doing an outdoor one in the afternoon so that it’s easier to talk rather than getting drowned out by music, and it gives the option for people to kick on for dinner and drinks if they desire?
No worries mate.
I like the idea of an afternoon meet-up. Maybe something at the Queen Victoria gardens or something.
You’d think it would be really easy to get a bunch of people together to have a chat but it’s surprisingly difficult 😅.
I’m actually going to piggyback off another event for the December catch-up. I’ll probably have comms out tomorrow I’d say. I’d love to meet you in person dude.
I think sometimes you just have to say: This is what’s happening, this is when it’s happening, I hope everyone can make it but I understand that not everyone will. And of course it gets harder to make it happen as you get older and have other stuff going on!
Haha bring along the laptop and microphone and we can do another podcast!
Love it mate.
Have you seen the Melbourne FIRE meetup?
I’d love to see you there dude!
