We Built This Thing

Not your average 9 to 5 job.

Life after school can feel more like a hire wire act than a clear path forward. 

From picking the right career, to saving for your first place, to figuring out who you are and what you stand for. A decade (or two) passes in the blink of an eye. And then what? You were meant to travel, see stuff. Be someone. And what about the environment? Is anyone doing anything about that? Won’t AI make us all obsolete in the next couple of years anyway? So many questions and just one life.

Enter We Built This Thing – a podcast series designed to share tips and bring a little joy to lead a more fulfilled life with host Dr Justine Rogers, an Associate Law Professor and stand-up performer.

Presented by UNSW's Centre for Ideas, We Built This Thing shares stories from founders, engineers and passionate creatives who aren’t following a traditional career path yet are achieving their dreams and living a life aligned with their values on their own terms.
