Welcome to the very first episode of the very first season of Between Two Unicorns, the Official Podcast of the Melbourne High School Old Boys Association.

This is the trailer for the first ever season of this podcast, where each week we’ll bring you a conversation Between Two Unicorns. 

Each episode is an interview with a legendary Melbourne High School Old Boy. We’ll unpack some of their fondest memories from Melbourne High, some lessons that have stuck with them from high school, then follow them along their career journey and pick out some advice that they would give to other Old Boys.

Right now, the current Covid-19 pandemic is having big impacts around the world. We're thinking of anyone who has been significantly impacted by this, either on a career level, a business level or a personal level. 

My name is Adam Ashton. A graduate of the Class of 2010, I floated the idea of an MHSOBA podcast at the end of 2019. I began powering ahead with interviews, until the coronavirus put the world on hold. I had five great conversations with five great Old Boys, and since there are no events happening at the moment, wanted to share these with you now.

This represents 'Season 1' of the MHSOBA podcast. Over the next 5 weeks, I'll be bringing you conversations from:

 - John Tasioulas (Class of 1982)

 - Ashton Pereira (2010)

 - Charles Macek (1964)

 - Benjamin Wilson (2010)

 - Wayne Chow (1994)

 

I hope you enjoy Season 1 of 'Between Two Unicorns' and that you learn a thing or two from some legendary Old Boys.

All the best to you and yours. The first two episodes are ready to listen to right now, with more coming each week.
