Melbourne's Night Alive


LightPartners Chat with Jesse


School teacher Andrew is just another one of our passionate listeners! Andrew speaks to Melbourne’s Night Alive host Jesse about the part LightFM plays in his personal life and just why he gives to LightFM through his partnership. 

Former lightFM engagement team worker, Sabina shares her first hand insights into the impact LightFM has on its listeners. 

Tamagotchi!


Blast from the past!! Who remembers these 90s gems?? They haven't been very popular as of late - however, Tamagotchis are now expanding into the iPhone and Android app markets!!

Jesse takes a trip down memory lane...and possibly rediscovers why everyone got so addicted to them in the first place!!

Bubble Wrap Saves the Day!


Bubble wrap improves our lives in many, many ways...or maybe just one: stress-relief.

But as we learn from an off-kilter news story from America, bubble wrap really is a life-saver...

Hawk Nelson interview


Jon Steingard, the new lead singer of Hawk Nelson, joined Jesse to talk about their new album Made, set to be released later this year.

Jon not only talks about how their band has stepped up their game for this album but also how their song Words has been extremely popular amongst listeners, winning over long-time followers of the band. He also discusses his transition from guitarist to frontman, how their fans helped to raise money for their new album, and what it was like to work alongside MercyMe.

Grumpy Cat Goes Viral!


One severely displeased feline has been making waves on the internet, the likes of which have not been seen since the 'cheezburger' incident...and that is 'Grumpy Cat'.

One of Jesse's favourite memes, Grumpy Cat's cantankerous mug has spawned t-shirts, keychains and even television appearances.

At this point, a film adaptation seems inevitable.

Meeting Mark Schultz


It's not enough to be a singer-songwriter for Mark Schultz - he wants to be a storyteller, someone who helps his audience connect to the message of his music.

Mark joined Jesse to tell her about how he writes music, and how fatherhood has changed his perspective on his songs and what they really mean to him. Being an orphan and not having had a blood relative growing up, his son has given him some new experiences he didn't expect as well as the usual parenting instincts.

Longest English word ever!


Jesse has stumbled across a video on YouTube of a man reading out the longest word ever in the English language. No it’s not ‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’ but …“the sound of it is something quite atrocious and if you try to say it loud enough you’ll always sound precocious” Listen in below to hear how many letters are actually in it!

Young at Heart!


Mums - they tell us that we kids are the ones who make them age faster...but don't worry, everyone. That's all just a myth!! Jess has found five things that slow the aging process and, what do you know, having kids is one of them! How's that, Mum?! So what else is on that list? Anyone else curious to know? Tune in to find out!

Odd Ornaments


Jesse discovered that many of us have favourites…Christmas decoration favourites that is! And yep, it seems as though we like to hide our less favoured Christmas ornaments at the back of the Christmas tree, or in places where no one can see them!

Pizza Perfume


An international pizza restaurant chain has introduced a new type of pizza! In fact, this type has NEVER been made before. It's not a pizza with extra cheese or extra spice, but instead it's a type of pizza that you can wear...yep you read right, a wearable pizza! Listen as Jesse reveals how this pizza scent may just make the people around you a little hungry!
