‘The blog ecology is always changing’ – Interview with Rachael Kendrick [podcast]

There’s nothing like the hospitality of a food blogger on an autumn eve. Cradling a little glass bottle of chinotto in my gloved hands, I spoke to Rachael Kendrick of Thus Bakes Zarathustra, Motor Coconut, The Vine (click on that last one for sure – I ate of that cake, people) about blogging and social media. We leapfrogged from how blogging and her PhD research on obesity interact to the ethical concerns of Twitter, how to manage attention with all the stimulation that social media offers us, Masterchef (of course) and the wild and woolly issue of how to monetise a blog.

    “I think Masterchef is the most glorious piece of trashy, histrionic television that Australia has produced. Let’s forget about the food, I just wanna see the bitches cry”

    Brilliant. Everyone everywhere should listen to this interview. Rachael Kendrick is an articulate, hilarious, virtuosic writer, researcher blogger and gentlewoman. And Estelle Tang asks fantastic questions.

    Just adding my recommendation of this podcast to Dion’s. Estelle has a great interviewing manner, and Rachael came across as a very switched-on interviewee. Enjoyed and agreed with many of the perspectives given on blogging. Great stuff!
