Que Minh Luu's songs that bond

As this episode of the Take 5 happened, everyone is talking about Byron Baes. The first show commissioned for Netflix Australia is a glorious hate watch, full of influencer culture, questions about belonging, and some singular characters.

The woman who commissioned it, is Que Minh Luu, she’s the Head of Content at Netflix Australia and her job is to find stories that are uniquely ours. Que has loved stories her whole life, and told them in shows like The Heights, Frayed, Diary of An Uber Driver, and Harrow.

But Que’s story is just as compelling. A child of Vietnamese refugees who grew up in Sydney’s southwest and went on to nab one of the biggest jobs in TV.

Finding community and connection is central to everything she does, and the core of her Take 5 songs. From Smashing Pumpkins to Missy Elliot, to Dave Dobbin, this is a revealing and beautiful conversation.

Tonight, Tonight - Smashing Pumpkins

Gossip Folks - Missy Elliot

Tusk - Fleetwood Mac

From Little Things Big Things Grow - Paul Kelly

Slice of Heaven - Dave Dobbin
