Wild One: Keyo Roses Flying Circus - A Man
Directed by Hugo Morgan, 'A Man' combines distorted frames, fluid camera manoeuvres, and choppy cuts for a video that is truly trippy. Shot in the Northcote Theatre, Hugo, Keyo and the team wanted to create an uninterrupted performance that invites the viewer into the theatre as the only patron.
"All the movement is continuous," explains Hugo, "but we also played with continuity and lighting to shape the environment and guide the audience through the different sections of the track.'
'This song is a conception of many hours spent smoking cigarettes in my room, unravelling the rope of masculinity to find balance and identity' says circus conductor Keyo Rhodes. 'I suppose it questions the idea of a man, the conflict between grace and strength, and if you dance around a bit things usually make more sense.'

Matches against A-League clubs will prepare Wrexham for promotion bid to English Premier League
Wrexham captain James McClean isn't ready for the Red Dragons' 'unimaginable' success to stop despite the resurgent Welsh club preparing for its toughest challenge yet – securing promotion to the English Premier League. That laser focus on taking the massive next step will be evident on a pre-season tour of Australia and New Zealand, with McClean declaring the players are 'not here for a holiday' ahead of matches against Melbourne Victory, Sydney FC and Wellington Phoenix. Owned since early 2021 by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, Wrexham – the world's third-oldest football club – has enjoyed a meteoric rise from the ranks of English non-league football. Three successive promotions has them set to compete in the second-tier English Championship from next month, and should they maintain their uninterrupted run of moving up divisions, the Red Dragons will be competing in the 2026-27 Premier League. 'When you're riding the crest of a wave like you are, you just go along with it,' Irish winger McClean said on Tuesday in Melbourne, where Wrexham starts its tour with a game against the Victory on Friday night at Marvel Stadium. 'Where the club has gone in the last few years, it's been unimaginable. I'm guessing even for the owners and everyone involved, it's probably exceeded their wildest expectations. 'I'm loving every second of it, and I'm sure the rest of the lads are as well. Long may the success continue.' Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson, who has been in charge of the team since July 2021, admitted the club's recent rise had been remarkable. 'Sometimes you have to pinch yourself about how quick the progression has been,' Parkinson said. 'We're really looking forward to the challenge (of playing in the English Championship). Everyone's got to raise their game in all areas of the club, but this is what football's all about. 'We're going into a real 'big boys' league this year. The Championship's one of the most competitive leagues not just in European football but in world football.' Victory coach Arthur Diles said Friday's match would 'showcase' his club on the world stage. 'It' gives us an opportunity to grow our brand and the football market of Australia internationally,' Diles said. 'Wrexham's a hot ticket at the moment in world football. What they've achieved in the last three years with three consecutive promotions … they're a club doing great things on and off the pitch. 'There are definitely things we can learn from them, and there are also definitely things they can learn from us. 'It's a great night for us.' Wrexham's tour also includes a game against Sydney FC next Tuesday night at Allianz Stadium and a trip to Wellington to meet the Phoenix on Saturday week at Sky Stadium.

Former 2Day FM radio host sues Southern Cross Austereo over infamous royal prank
An Australian radio personality at the centre of the 2012 royal prank that ended in tragedy has launched legal action against Southern Cross Austereo (SCA). Michael Christian was presenting on 2Day FM at the time with co-host Mel Greig when they made the phone call to a London hospital to inquire about Princess Catherine – then the Duchess of Cambridge – who was admitted for severe morning sickness ahead of the birth of her and Prince William's first child, Prince George. Christian alleges he was ordered by the 2Day FM production team to make the hoax call to King Edward VII hospital while impersonating the then-Prince Charles and Queen Elizabeth to try to get detailed information about the duchess. Their call was transferred by a nurse named Jacintha Saldanha to the duchess' nurse, who then shared the royal's private medical information on air. Saldanha sadly took her life days after the prank call, and both Christian and Greig copped widespread backlash over the prank. Now, more than a decade after the infamous incident, Christian is suing 2Day FM broadcaster SCA in the federal court, claiming the network let the hosts be the 'fall guys', which negatively impacted their careers. 'SCA did not immediately take public accountability for the incident, but rather allowed Mr Christian and Ms Greig to be left exposed to relentless public vitriol, harassment and abuse, including death threats,' his lawyers wrote in the court documents. 'The radio presenters were left by SCA as the convenient fall guys and scapegoats for SCA management decisions and noncompliance.' Christian – who was just two days into the job at the time – claimed the company had promised to provide support to the 'shock jocks' if the prank ever went too far. He says the broadcaster told him in 2013 that they would help restore his reputation and rebuild his career, and he felt let down when SCA did not keep their word. 'As the matter is currently before the courts, and out of respect for the legal process and the privacy of those involved, it would be inappropriate for us to comment at this time,' an SCA spokesperson told on Tuesday morning. After the backlash, Christian and Greig appeared on a series on TV interviews on which they said they were 'gutted, shattered and heartbroken'. 'I'm very sorry and saddened for the family, and I can't imagine what they've been going through,' Greig said on Today Tonight at the time. 'For the part we played, we're incredibly sorry,' Christian added. In the new court docs, Christian alleges he suffered physical and psychological injury, hurt, humiliation and distress and is seeking penalties, compensation for economic loss and damages. In 2013, Greig filed a similar claim against SCA with Fair Work Australia, accusing them of failing to maintain a safe workplace. The case was 'amicably resolved' and Greig later resigned from the network. As for Christian, he stayed on with the network until he was made redundant in February this year.
