    In this episode, we sit down with Steve Peth — former owner of Tramp Nightclub — to tell the full story behind one of Melbourne’s most iconic venues.
    From building Tramp on King Street to navigating the highs and lows of running a nightclub, Steve breaks down what it really took to create a venue that defined an era. We get into the crazy incidents, the wildest nights behind the bar, and the moments that gave Tramp its reputation as one of the city’s most talked-about clubs.
    We also dive into the artists who came through, the culture of King Street at its peak, and what was happening behind the scenes that the public never saw.
    This isn’t just a nightclub story — it’s a look at an entire era of Melbourne nightlife, told by someone who was right in the middle of it.

    We sit down with Jewelz to break down her journey through the underground — from being a female DJ in the 90s when the scene wasn’t built for women, to dominating Sydney’s hard trance clubs at a time when the sound was exploding.

    She opens up on what it was really like earning respect behind the decks, why hard trance had such a grip on the scene, and the realities of navigating a male-dominated industry.

    From there, she takes a left turn — moving to Melbourne, stepping away from the spotlight to run a record shop, and eventually rebuilding her career from the ground up.

    This is a story about resilience, reinvention, and becoming a true Melbourne legend through eras most people will never understand.
