Hi Guys, welcome back to TV Reload. Thank you for clicking or downloading on today’s episode with Bethany Jones who is the Mushroom Studios Chief Operating Officer. Along with Producer of Ego: The Michael Gudinski Story.
This feature documentary drops on the 9th of April on Channel Seven and Seven Plus and follows the wild ride of Michael Gudinski over five decades. As he forges his own 'Maverick' path consumed by his ambition and enduring passion for Australian music.

Michael Gudinski was a music man and natural born hustler. He repeatedly risked everything for his one obsession: Australian music. 
At age 19 he launched Mushroom Records and went on to sign and nurture iconic artists including Skyhooks, Split Enz, Jimmy Barnes, Paul Kelly, Hunters & Collectors, Kylie Minogue and Yothu Yindi. 
Not content with just a label, his hunger extended to being on the road promoting legendary international acts such as Foo Fighters, Ed Sheeran, Bruce Springsteen, and Sting. There’s barely a living Australian whose life hasn’t been touched by the music he was behind.
Helmed by acclaimed feature film, documentary and music video director Paul Goldman and produced by Bethany Jones, the film features personal accounts from Gudinski himself, exclusive interviews with the some of the world's most influential artists, rare archival footage and an electrifying soundtrack.


There is some fabulous stories shared today from Beths relationship with Michael Gudinski and the evolution of the documentary came together.
Beth talks about how the artists in Michael’s story were able to come together and share their stories.
We will unpack what Mushroom Studios looks like these days and how his legacy continues.
