Side Quest with Lou and Joe
What really happens when two young professionals step off the main path and throw themselves into the chaos, comedy, and curveballs of work and life? That’s Sidequest with Lou and Joe - unfiltered, unpredictable, and unapologetically real.
Every week, Joe Shannon and Louisianna Giumelli share stories from the trenches of business, entrepreneurship, and everyday professional life. From office renos gone rogue to late-night “what if” career chats, from traffic jams turned productivity hacks to honest conversations about workplace culture...absolutely nothing’s off limits.
Think of it as your weekly detour: sometimes funny, sometimes raw, always relatable. It’s proof that the best parts of the journey often come from the sidequests.
So buckle up, hit follow, and join Joe and Lou for the ride. See you on the next quest.

EP 4: Sleep, Parnetships & Misogyny
In this episode, we unpack what it’s really like to build something new when you don’t know what you don’t know. From unexpected hurdles to lessons learned the hard way, it’s a candid look at the blind spots that come with starting from scratch.
The conversation also takes a serious turn as we tackle misogyny in the workplace. It’s a tough but necessary chat for young professionals, blending honesty with the humour and candour you expect from Sidequest.
⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of misogyny in the workplace. If you or someone you know needs support, call 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) or Lifeline on 13 11 14.
