201: Maz Compton

Osher Günsberg
About this episode

Maz Compton is a well-known broadcaster from Sydney who for years was all over the TV when she worked on MTV, and later all over the radio, culminating in her stint on the high-profile breakfast shift on 2Day FM in Sydney.  

That life is mostly behind her now, however she did write a book about her experiences which we talk about here - but we also talk about what it was to have worked so hard to get the dream job and then have the dream job go away. 

You can find her book at mazcompton.net or on Amazon. 

Maz is a great chat, an inspiring woman, and I’m so grateful she came by the apartment to chat on a lovely Sydney afternoon. 

Ladies and gentlemen, Maz Compton.
