Shameless success: From a bedroom-floor podcast to 100 million downloads
Melbourne-based journalists Zara McDonald and Michelle Andrews started Shameless Media in 2018 (on a bedroom floor) to fill a gap in celebrity news and reality TV podcasts. Initially a side-hustle, the duo turned their podcast into a fully-fledged media company with 15 staff. Their podcasts boast 100 million downloads, they have 1.3 million social followers across their channels and 110,000 newsletter subscribers.
