Welcome to Brown Riot podcast. This podcast is all about what it means and what it takes to be successful in advertising other creative industries when you’re from a different ethnic or socio-economic background to the majority. In each episode, Coffee Cocoa Gunpowder co-founder Ant Melder speaks to a creative industry leader from a diverse cultural background. It’s a celebration of diversity that offers inspiration, insight and much-needed role models. Not all guests are strictly ‘brown’ but they are all awesome.

All episodes are recorded in Smith & Western’s dedicated podcasting studio in Redfern, Sydney. As was the Brown Riot theme music, which was composed and recorded by Smith & Western and features throughout the podcasts.
