Welcome back to the Media Jungle!
This week we have:
Tim Burrowes (@timburrowes), author of Unmade: Australian Media's Most Disruptive Decade, and founder of Mumbrella, a leading publication for media and marketing for the land down under. You can find him now at his Substack, Unmade.media.
On today’s episode, we cover:
How tech giants experiment new features in Australia
How he grew to eventually build and sell a B2B media company in Mumbrella
More insights from his latest book, which breaks down the 2010s in Australian media and how the landscape differs from the U.S.
Podcasts grow from referrals, so if you like Media Jungle, please consider sharing with someone interested in learning about how the media industry works.
