Marlee Silva with Ziggy & Piper the dogs

When Kate asked author Marlee Silva to come on this episode, she said it was “the best idea for a podcast” she’d ever heard. Marlee is a Gamilaroi and Dunghutti woman who launched a social media initiative called Tiddas 4 Tiddas to celebrate Indigenous Australian women and girls. She hosts a podcast about First Nations role models called Always Our Stories and one about sport called Chicks and Balls. She has more podcasts still to be revealed! Her first and bestselling book, My Tidda, My Sister was published by Hardie Grant. She also, importantly, lives with two magnificent dogs called Piper and Ziggy. She tells Kate the hilarious story of how her sister brought their second dog into the family home, what mental health support they provide, and the most embarrassing thing they’ve ever done. 

You can find Kate on Instagram, Twitter and TikTok. Her book, Good Dog, is published by Harper Collins in Australia, the US and the UK. 

Who’s A Good Dog? is a Stripped Media podcast, produced by Arlie Adlington.
