Episode 2:
Headlining Heresy with Jeremy Kirk
This week on Death by Burning, we meet the heretic who’s not just disrupting the media landscape, he’s rebuilding it from the ground up. Piers Grove is an unapologetic impact investor and founder of ventures like The Betoota Advocate and The Daisy Aus, where satire, storytelling, and social change collide.
In this fiery conversation, Piers argues that today’s corporate media has lost the plot – and the public. He’s betting on a new model: one that speaks plainly, punches up, and focuses on “things that bloody matter.”
It’s part media rebellion, part social experiment, and 100% heresy. Let the burning continue.
Welcome back to Death by Burning, the podcast where heretics aren’t silenced, they’re headlined. In this episode, we sit down with Jeremy Kirk, a former investigative journalist who made the leap to Intel 471, trading the newsroom for the nerve center of cyber intelligence.
Together, we dig into the slow unraveling of traditional journalism—from collapsing ad models to the uneasy dance between the media and corporate power. Why did Jeremy cross over to the so-called “dark side”? And what does that say about the future of objectivity, expertise, and trust in an age of digital noise?
This is the story of a journalist who didn’t just report on change, he became part of it. Let the burning continue.

Communicating Heresy with
Jon Yeo
Welcome to Death by Burning, the world’s first flammable podcast. Inspired by revolutionary thinkers, wild-eyed inventors, and the gadflies who dared to challenge the status quo, we seek out modern-day heretics and hand them a mic.
In this debut episode, we talk to Jon Yeo, veteran curator of TEDxMelbourne and a master of the stage. As a renowned speaking coach, Jon helps heretics shape chaos into clarity, teaching them to voice what others won’t.
So suspend your disbelief. Tune out the noise. And lean into the friction between a world on fire and the ones holding the match. Let the burning begin.
