Junkee Media is home to influential youth media brands Junkee and Punkee. The outlet creates highly shareable content about the things that matter (and sometimes the things that don't) and continually strives to add to the conversation, not just the noise.

Junkee has built a community that is engaged in endless conversation with creators about their take on what's happening and about what concerns and diverse voices we should amplify next. It gives you access to the artists you should care about, context to the social justice issues that are taking up your brainspace, and a full download of the TV shows, films, and corners of the internet you want to be in.

Punkee is your antidote to this v chaotic, v stressful world, passionate about helping people live their best lives and enjoy downtime as much as possible. Punkee brings new ideas and ways of thinking about the world, exploring the things that bring you joy and give your life more meaning: sex (obviously), self care (rooms, crafting, fits, nails etc!), and the sugar on top (ruminations on the stuff you can't stop thinking about-we all need a little treat!).
