Passion Fruit on Air

Paola Toose, brave, passionate and owner of a great sense of humour midwife will be sharing her story in Pasion Fruit on Air. We'll know some details of Paola's adolescence which drove her to back to her country on her own, and how she took that experience as an opportunity. Besides, we will be talking about her decision to become a midwife and she will also give recommendations to mums about the coronavirus which has us, to say something, emotionally tired. In this show, we played music from Latin rock bands of the '80s and '90s. Circo Beat - Fito Paez Tren al Sur - Los Prisioneros Profugos - Soda Stereo Pasajera en trance - Charly Garcia

Passion Fruit on Air se complace en invitarlos a una entretenida conversación con al astróloga y futuróloga chilena, Ivi Sepúlveda. Nuestra querida “brujita” nos ha advertido y preparado para mucho de lo que hoy estamos viviendo. Esta vez le preguntamos sobre su nuevo libro y que nos están diciendo las constelaciones, planetas y lunas. Ivi está empeñada en que aprendamos de astrología para estar preparados, pero también para hacer las cosas mejor. Así que hablamos en profundidad sobre los 7 ciclos astrológicos ocurrirán en los próximos años y cuál es la tendencia o influencia que estos tienen sobre nosotros. Los ciclos Júpiter y Saturno que comenzó a fines de 2019 y dura 20 años. Hoy se encuentra esa conjunción en Capricornio y a fines de año entra en Acuario. Júpiter y Urano que se dará el 2024 y durará 14 años. Traerá avances, especialmente en tecnología. Y estará en Tauro. Júpiter – Neptuno, que sucede cada 13 años, comienza el 2022 y estará en la casa de Piscis. Esta conjunción nos traerá nuevos valores espirituales. Saturno – Urano. Esta conjunción nos acompañará por 45 años y comienza el 2032 en Cáncer. Esta “asociación planetaria” nos sugiere cambios en las formas de gobierno y de manejar nuestras vidas. Saturno - Neptuno estarán influyéndonos juntos por 36, 37 años, desde el 2026 y lo hará desde la casa de Aries. Esta conjunción nos habla de cambios en las estructuras con un Saturno que se aferra a lo establecido. Saturno - Plutón entró el 2020 en Capricornio y anuncia una metamorfosis lenta y poderosa regeneración, otras perspectivas, cambios sustanciales en la forma de pensar. Urano – Neptuno que se da cada 170 años y nos traerá bastante trabajo.

Presented by the Alliance Française in association with the Embassy of France in Australia and Unifrance Films, the 2020 season will screen at Palace Cinemas (Cinema Paradiso) and Luna Palace Cinemas (Windsor Cinema and Luna on SX). This year we are celebrating the 31st edition of the Alliance Française French Film Festival which from 11 March until 8 April will be screening a selection of contemporary French cinema. Showcased via 9 distinct categories with expressively piquant headings such as ‘Eternal Odyssey,’ ‘Intense & Unsettling,’ ‘The Voice of the Countryside,’ ‘Magnetic Love,’ and ‘City of Lights,’ the 2020 line-up has a strong emphasis on social engagement and altruistic endeavours. These qualities are depicted in films such as the multi-award-winning Les Misérables, Ladj Ly’s searing snapshot of corruption and simmering tensions in modern-day Paris; School Life, a comedy/drama set within a Saint Denis high school; Invisibles, which follows the unorthodox antics taken by an illegal women’s shelter to avoid closure; Oh Mercy!, a darkly compelling exposé of the human condition as observed by a police chief in Northern France; the poignant rural drama, In the Name of the Land, starring Guillaume Canet as a farmer battling to maintain his dignity in the face of incessant setbacks, and many more extraordinary films. In times of social, environmental and political uncertainty, cinema also looks to heroic figures for inspiration, a trend which is echoed via themes ranging from space travel (Proxima and How to Become an Astronaut); fairytale princes (The Lost Prince and Donkey Skin), political leaders (Alice and the Mayor and Savages); submarine soldiers (The Wolf’s Call) and spirits (Zombi Child). High on the list of 2020 highlights is the international premiere of director Martin Provost’s How to Be a Good Wife. Set at a time when women were still expected to be largely subservient, this delicious comedy stars the luminous Juliette Binoche as the pristine head of a housekeeping school who, when faced with adversity, takes her first steps towards emancipation. There’s also the hotly anticipated La Belle Époque, which tells the story of Victor (Daniel Auteuil) a disillusioned man who is given the opportunity to relive the great love-affair of his youth, and the whimsically romantic Notre-Dame - shot before last year’s horrific fire - about an architect who wins a competition to redesign the Notre-Dame esplanade; a movie which, given events of the past year, is now considered visionary. Breathing life into this cinematic cornucopia will be a host of France’s most electrifying actors, including Fanny Ardant, Vincent Cassel, Romain Duris, Emmanuelle Bercot, Bérénice Bejo, Jean Dujardin, Fabrice Luchini, Noémie Lvovsky, Eva Green, Jacques Perrin, Gaspard Ulliel, Roshdy Zem, Léa Seydoux, Yolande Moreau, Xavier Dolan, Virginie Efira, Sandrine Kiberlain, François Cluzet, Gilles Lellouche, Laurent Lafitte, Christophe Lambert, Mathieu Kassovitz, Virginie Ledoyen and Lidvine Sagnier, who will feature in films directed by, amongst others, Christophe Honoré, Zabou Breitman, Xavier Dolan, Martin Provost, Olivier Nakache, Éric Toledano, Guillaume Canet, Erwan Le Duc, Rémi Bezançon, André Téchiné, Cédric Kahn, Dominik Moll, Arnaud Desplechin, Cédric Klapisch, Michel Hazanavicius, and Yvan Attal. And in celebration of its 50th anniversary, the Festival will present a restored version of the aforementioned, Donkey Skin, a luscious fairy-tale musical from legendary New-Wave director Jacques Demy, featuring a soundtrack by Michel Legrand and starring the eternal Catherine Deneuve who headlines four films in this year’s programme. The Alliance Française French Film Festival screens at Palace Cinemas Raine Square (Perth CBD) and Cinema Paradiso (Northbridge) and Luna Palace Cinemas Windsor (Nedlands) and Luna on SX (Fremantle) from 11 March – 8 April.

Since the age of 12, speed became his passion. This dream took him to the top and positioned him where only those who dare and work hard are in the history of  Australia and the world. In 1994, he reached 802.6 km/hr. Australia has his name in their files and he prepares to write his next chapter: to reach 1,200 km/hr on the Aussie Invader - World Land Speed Record Challenger. Join us in this conversation and get to know something more about this man who wants to put Australia once again at the top of the world competition.

Join us in a new episode of conversations with Dr. Carol Hullin, Ph.D. in Digital Health, masters in law and a global leader in Digital Transformation.  In this opportunity, we'll be talking about Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans. Probably you use Alexa, Netflix Siri, and Amazon.com for entertainment or to buy your favourite stuff. All of them use AI, which means learning from your interaction with their systems to give you a better service. How far are we from being in front of a "machine" which can interact like a human being, with answers and even feelings like the ones we have? With Dr. Hullin we will also analyse the #ethical and #legal aspects of AI.  

This is our second conversation with Dr. Carol Hullin, Ph.D. in Digital Health, an international consultant on digital transformation and senior lecturer at Swinburne University of Technology (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia). Today apparently the data is everything. We constantly produce and share data. How safe is that data? What is your security strategy for your personal data? How much of your personal information is freely available on social media? Are your computer's cameras protected? Does your phone have a shield protecting your data? We invite you to our cycle of conversation with Dr. Carol Hullin PhD in Digital Health, master’s in law and global advisor in digital transformation. In this opportunity, we will be talking about considerations to keep your data safe and accessible.

We proudly present you a series of conversations with Dr. Carol Hullin, Ph.D. in Digita lHealth, an international consultant on digital transformation and senior lecturer at Swinburne University of Technology (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia). A few weeks ago we interviewed her and knew her story of effort, resilience, and achievements. In this show, we talk about the role of women in digital transformation, opportunities, and threats. Talking with Carol is not a linear conversation. Her experiences in life, knowledge, and professional development bring a new vision to currents topics.

Estábamos terminando el año 2019 cuando las alarmas internacionales sonaron con fuerza. La Organización Mundial de la Salud, OMS, comunicaba al mundo de varios casos de neumonía registrados en la ciudad china de Wuhan, en la provincia de Hubei. En un comienzo no se sabía cuál era la causa. Luego se identificó, sería una nueva cepa del coronavirus a la que se denominó 2019 - nCoV. Su contagio e "internacionalización" es muy rápido. A la hora de esta publicación, 20 países desafortunadamente tienen personas contagiadas con el virus, como lo son Japón, Camboya, Nepal, Vietnam, Canadá, Australia, Estados Unidos, Francia y otros. Luego de nuestra primera entrevista con Ivi Sepúlveda, astróloga y "futurista" chilena, acordamos de realizar otras periódicamente para tocar ciertos temas de interés. Es por ello, que estamos haciendo este especial de 2019 - nCoV. Hablamos por casi dos horas en que obviamente tocamos este y otros temas. Tanto los especialistas como Ivi recomiendan cuidar de la higiene personal, lo que nos permite evitar el contagio. Por ejemplo, usar sanitizante de manos, guantes, mascarillas (la que debe ser usada no mas de 3 horas. Luego desecharla), no tocarse la cara y lentes para proteger las mucosas de los ojos. Otras más son tratar de no ir a lugares públicos, así evitar ambientes contaminados. Poner atención a la dieta, en otras palabras, comer sano. No estresar el cuerpo sobre comiendo o comiendo cosas poco nutritivas. Si quieres conocer a Ivi Sepúlveda, puedes conectarte con ella a través de su grupo de Facebook, Ivi Sepulveda, mi Verdad mi Libertad o bien tomarte un café mientras ves sus videos en su canal YouTube, Ivi Sepulveda. Te prevenimos, pueden ser adictivos. passionfruitonair.com https://youtu.be/x2N_JTiO2qw

There are organisations with heart, compassionate, which give back to others their dignity. In this show, you will meet one of them and people who will inspire you: Foodbank WA. Passion Fruit on Air went to visit their warehouse near Perth airport. There, we talked with Andrew Wilkinson, Partnership & Development Manager and Steve Martin, Operations Managers of Foodbank WA. According to studies developed by Foodbank Hunger Report, 5 million people in Australia have experienced food insecurity in the past 12 months. Foodbank provides food relief to more than 815,0.00 people per month. In Western Australia, the organisation gives meals to 43, 937 people. Learn how they do it, and how you can be part of this wonderful chain of favours. Get involve! If you are a producer, have a restaurant or a catering business maybe you can help them with the food that you are not using anymore.

Two friends from Bindoon (Western Australia),  a town 80 kilometres at the north of Perth, launched a couple of years ago the Northern Valleys Locavore Store. They are Tamieka Preston, founder and former editor of the Northern Valleys News, and Trish Murrell, owner of the Northern Valleys Tax, also President of the Chittering Chambers of Commerce.  Their Locavore store was their answer to what they could do supporting producers and other businesses of the region. Developing this e-commerce platform they provide a marketplace between growers and food producers with consumers who want to buy local and on season products. Thus, costumers can buy online and then collect from the shop. At this moment there are tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, diverse leaves, authentic pastured eggs, honey, avocados, olive oil, cheeses, marmalades, also wildflowers.

Con más de treinta mil miembros en su grupo de Facebook y más de cincuenta y tres mil en YouTube, esta chilena “aprendiz” de astróloga, futuróloga y tarotista descifra con asombrosa precisión lo que los astros nos quieren decir. Por ella hemos sabido, con anterioridad, de temblores, conflictos internacionales, crisis sociales, accidentes e incendios como el de la Catedral de Notre Dame en Paris. Sus seguidores son de todas partes del mundo, festejan sus aciertos, y disfrutan de su personalidad cercana y directa. Muchos se “toman un cafecito” mientras miran sus videos. Su actividad en la red es constante. Desde Villarrica en el sur de Chile, sube por lo menos 5 videos a la semana. Cuando no lo hace, muchos preguntan por ella.

This interview is a friendly conversation about food also an invitation to be more aware of our choices when buying products. Vincenzo Velletri, an Italian chef, owner of Il Paiolo Catering and leader of the Slow Food movement for Western Australia, gives us details about this international organisation. We also analyse the economic and environmental benefits that carry to buy from local producers. On the other hand, Rosalba Velletri, as a Naturopath, explains the health advantages of eating seasonal products. We also talk about the food consumed ancestrally by the aboriginal people of Australia and the need to connect with mother earth through this ancient knowledge kept by the native tribes. A legacy that today is kept by the elders and wise of their communities.

With a unique life experience, Dr. Carol Hullin inspires us with her stories. Conditions such as to be born in Chile in a poor family with indigenous ancestors, as well as being a woman, would be enough to keep her in the cycle of poverty for more than 200 years. Thanks to her tenacity unwavering faith in God, her resilience and intelligence plus the opportunities that Australia gave her, she left that past behind and today she leads digital innovation programs for the health sector in several countries of the world. She has worked for the World Bank, for the government of Chile and has been the Dean of the Faculty of Health Sciences at the Universidad Catolica de Temuco, Chile. Nothing stops Carol.

2020 is the year of sustainability. In a few more weeks we will be talking about how to be more efficient and reduce our impact on the environment. We are witnessing how climate change has extensive regions with years of drought that puts people's food at risk as well as the balance of today's fragile and stressed ecosystem. In this context, producing our own food makes a lot of sense. Looking for visionaries, we found Danny Hetherington who we asked to visit his house in the Perth Hills to learn what he is doing. We were amazed at the efficiency of land use. Everything is a symbiosis, everything is for something. In addition, almost arriving at his house, there are orchards that he shares with his neighbors. Danny is a generous man. He introduced us to Jo, who is a gardener and who also uses her backyard as a farm. There, she produces exotic mushrooms that are sold under  Jo's Gourmet Mushrooms brand in some of Perth's local markets, such as Palmyra Farmers Market. Danny also produces mushrooms and we know he is willing to commercialise his growing production in the next months. During the interview we were tempted with homemade bread, butter made by Dany's father and although it doesn't sound very professional, we tried an exquisite craft beer. In addition to having his farm in his backyard, Danny has photography as a hobby. We were impressed with his ability with the lens and his artistic proposal.

For the last few years David O’Connell has been the film critic for X-Magazine (although has seen publication in numerous other publications – The Music, Film Ink, The Brag). A self-describe “geek”, David has a love of film and TV (especially in the of sci-fi, fantasy and cult variety), which he has been fortunate enough to be able to explore in his interviews and reviews. He also has a passion for his hobby of gaming, which he jokingly laments, can often take up a lot of his time as well as storage space at home.

Knowing Miguel Berlanga, Spanish actor, from Valladolid has been a gift to my soul. I laughed during the 40 minutes of the interview and understood that being happy is an attitude, that great challenges have their difficulties, but when you achieve your goal, every sacrifice was worth it... I learned that from a clown. Miguel has participated in dozens of plays, in television series and has also made films in Spain. Today is enjoying one of his biggest dreams: to be part of Cirque du Soleil. Kooza will be in Perth until the 11th of June at the Belmont Park Racecourse. Do not miss the opportunity to laugh and go back to being children. For more information: https://www.cirquedusoleil.com/australia/perth/shows

I visited the American artist Bonnie Atlan at her Studio and we had a great conversation. If you have been at Guilford for sure you have visited her shop gallery called “Stories on the Wall” on James Street.  She and her taste are big part of the attraction there. She has paintings from her last exhibitions, furniture, silk scarfs all with her designs, actually they have been taken from her palettes; they are absolutely unique and fine.  If you go there during weekend for sure you will have the opportunity to meet her and understand why this woman is a fount of inspiration. She is an unstoppable artist and next Friday 26th of May she will be launching her new work so we have another excuse to visit her again. For more information: www.storiesonthewall.com  

In the studio of Passion Fruit on Air we were joined by Ron Terrazas, mortgage broker in Rams. During the show we explored the possibilities that exist today in the market to buy a house. For that reason, we analyzed the WA's subsidies for those who buy their first home and how to finance that big step. We also talk about the possibility of investing in real estate and how to access financing for it. Between 2 good talkers, the program was short, so very soon we will have Ron to help us having our dream home.

The Spanish Film Festival is already a tradition in Australia. 20 years ago it was its first version and today we celebrate its permanence with 39 films of different genres.

Este año es la primera vez en la historia cívica de Chile que los chilenos que vivimos en el extranjero podremos votar, si votar en las primarias presidenciales, presidenciales y plebiscitos. Para hablar de ello estaremos con el Cónsul Honorario de Chile en Perth, Sr. Carlos Moncada entrevistando directamente desde  Santiago de Chile, al director de la Dirección de la Comunidad de Chilenos en el Extranjero, Sr. Abraham Quezada. Abraham liderara la reunión con la comunidad chilena que se realizará el sábado 1 de abril de 10:30 a 12:30 horas en el Woolnough Lecture Theatre (en el Departamento de Geología) de la University de Western Australia. En este encuentro también estarán presentes el Cónsul General de Chile en Melbourne, Sr. Gabriel Jara y también nuestro cónsul en Perth.
