HI FI WAY: The Making of You Am I is a three-part podcast series by Richard Kingsmill. It offers a revealing insight into a pioneering band and an Australian music classic. Hi Fi Way was a bolt of lightning, created from adrenalin and gut instinct. Hailed as one of Australia's greatest albums, it also contained glimpses of a hidden story - a story of a frontman who was often "not comfortable in the skin he was in". The process behind You Am I's brilliance on this album happened so quickly it went largely unseen. The anxiety that accompanied that brilliance has gone largely unexplained.
