At collective_100, we are lucky to work alongside people doing interesting, meaningful work across a range of industries. From casual convos in the kitchen to daily check-ins, our team gets to know what makes each business (and person) tick. So we asked around - here is what a few of our members are into right now.
Top Lunch Picks in Cremorne - All Under $15
Cremorne might be known for its creative and tech scenes, but it is also home to some standout cheap eats. We asked a few of our members where they go when they want something fast, filling, and full of flavour.
- Shane Greenan, CFO of Tech Labs Venture Capital, recommends the Reuben sandwich at Socially Awkward. “It hits the mark for both flavour and value,” he says - a win on busy workdays.
- Eve Abdallah, Partnerships Executive at Tonic Media, is a fan of the crispy pork roll with chilli from Master Roll Vietnamese. Simple, spicy, and always satisfying.
- Anthony Byrne, CEO of Emprevo, usually brings his own lunch - but after some convincing, he gave a quiet nod to the falafel at Lamana & Sons, a low-key Cremorne staple.
Whether you are in the mood for something hearty or just need a reliable option between meetings, these three are worth checking out.
Podcasts Worth Plugging In For
Between meetings and emails, a good podcast can offer the perfect reset - or the right business insight. Here is what some of our members are listening to right now:
- Shane is into Topline, a podcast packed with sharp, tactical advice for B2B tech founders, operators, and investors. “It’s become part of my morning commute,” he says.
- Eve walks to work listening to Inherited by Shameless Media. The series explores what we inherit beyond money - like rituals, beliefs, and identity.
- Anthony’s pick? The Adam Buxton Podcast. The British comedian interviews creatives, thinkers, and cultural figures - with equal parts depth and humour.
If you are looking to expand your perspective while staying productive, these are a solid place to start.
What They’re Watching (After Work, Of Course)
Switching off is important - and our members know how to unwind. Their recent TV picks say a lot about the personalities behind the businesses.
- Shane is hooked on For All Mankind, the alternate-history space drama where the Soviets beat the US to the Moon. “It’s tense, clever, and totally gripping.”
- Eve recently binged White Lotus, the darkly comic resort-set drama that mixes satire, mystery, and jaw-dropping plot turns.
- Anthony is rewatching 24. “There is still nothing like Jack Bauer saving the world one hour at a time.”
It turns out even CEOs, strategists, and media pros need a bit of escapism. (And sometimes, a bit of Jack Bauer.)
