It's West Coast meets East Coast film fandom on this bonus Movie Squad pod, as Tristan Fidler and Simon Miraudo are joined by Alexei Toliopoulos and Zachary Ruane to discuss their brand new comedy show Refused Classification. Zach is well known for being one leg of the Aunty Donna tripod, and Alexei is the host of The Last Video Store podcast, but from here on out, they may be best recognised as the alternate timeline version of beloved Aussie critics David Stratton and Margaret Pomeranz, whom they play in Refused Classification. Their show (a fusion of stand-up, documentary, protest and audacious verbatim theatre) sees Alexei and Zach relaying (and replaying) Margaret's iconic stoush against the authorities as she attempted to screen the banned film Ken Park in 2003. Tristan and Simon caught up with Alexei and Zach during their sold-out run of shows at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, and ahead of them bringing Refused Classification to Boorloo for the Perth Comedy Festival, playing The Rechabite on Friday 9 May. (There are also limited tix available for their Melbourne run, thanks to some newly added shows!) Movie Squad's on-air segment is on a brief hiatus but keep tuning in to RTRFM and join the Blockbuster Babes for their triumphant return on Friday 2 May at 7:30am with Breakfast host Pam Boland. You can always play catch-up with past episodes of the podcast here.

Mădălina Pavăl Orchestra lansează „Fuga Iuga”, un album-experiență care “vorbește” și cântă despre vântul schimbării, devenind o invitație la introspecție și reconectare cu rădăcinile culturale. Cu influențe din Bucovina, Moldova, sudul Dunării și Balcani, acest material discografic este o punte între tradiție și modernitate, care oferă ascultătorului o experiență autentică și profundă.  Mădălina Pavăl Orchestra este un grup de 11 muzicieni care s-a format organic în jurul Mădălinei, o artistă cu o energie profund ancorată în realitate, dar în același timp conectată la un filon mitic și ancestral. Cu o sensibilitate aparte, dar și cu o determinare puternică, Mădălina și-a asumat încă din copilărie misiunea de a descoperi, culege și reinterpreta cântecele vechi din folclorul românesc. Expresia „Fuga te fură și Iuga te adună” surprinde perfect esența albumului – Iuga este acel vânt imaginar care ne încetinește pasul, oferindu-ne spațiu să respirăm și să ne întoarcem către sine.Cele nouă piese de albumului spun povești autentice despre oameni, iubire, emoții și conexiuni profunde. Fuga Iuga este un univers sonor care surprinde diversitatea României, îmbinând elemente de folclor cu sonorități contemporane. Mădălina Pavăl Orchestra creează astfel un peisaj muzical unic, menit să rezoneze cu fiecare ascultător."Oamenii își scriu propriile povești în cântecele pe care le ascultă și eu sunt convinsă că de aici pot începe multe alte trăiri care să fie povestite cu foc. Iubirea, în toate formele ei, are multe, multe cărări,” spune Mădălina Pavăl.Cele două piese lansate până acum, "Fuga Iuga" și "Inima verde" sunt dovada sound-ului distinct și puternic al orchestrei care refuză să fie limitată de conceptul de gen muzical. Ca o concluzie firească a albumului, piesa "Liniște" aduce un contrast surprinzător: ritm alert și pulsant, în antiteză cu titlul său. Aceasta reflectă frământările interioare, gândurile care nu ne lasă să ne oprim, dar și nevoia de echilibru. Mesajul piesei este un antidot la overthinking, o invitație la regăsireaarmoniei interioare."Ne place să credem că am reinventat sonoritățile românești când am îmbinat texturi din lumea clasică cu dinamica de dans și forța tribală a band-ului de alternativ. Unii i-ar zice world music, pentru noi e un ansamblu care poate doini românește și te poate învârti nebunește,” completează Alexei Țurcan.Lansarea albumului "Fuga Iuga" va fi marcată printr-o serie de concerte speciale, cu prima oprire în București pe 21 martie la Club Guesthouse, urmată de Cluj, 22 martie, la FORM Space și un turneu național. În plus, vor avea loc și listening parties cu sesiuni meet & greet cu artiștii, în orașe precum București, Cluj și Timișoara.Albumul este disponibil online începând cu 14 martie. Ascultă-l pe platformele online și lasă-te purtat de vântul schimbării!

On 18 March 1965, cosmonaut Alexei Leonov became the first person to spacewalk.He spent around 10 minutes floating above the Earth, tethered to the spaceship by a 5m “umbilical cord”.Recalling that moment, he said: “I felt almost insignificant, like a tiny ant compared to the immensity of the universe. At the same time, I felt enormously powerful.”But the mission didn't go smoothly. The lack of atmospheric pressure in space had caused the Soviet's spacesuit to inflate and become stiff – meaning he couldn't fit back through the spaceship airlock.“It had become a dangerous situation. Very dangerous. Life threatening”, he said.Vicky Farncombe has been reading and listening to archive interviews with Alexei, who died in 2019, to bring you his dramatic story.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past. We take you to the events that have shaped our world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes every day, we take you back in time and all over the world, to examine wars, coups, scientific discoveries, cultural moments and much more. Recent episodes explore everything from football in Brazil, the history of the ‘Indian Titanic' and the invention of air fryers, to Public Enemy's Fight The Power, subway art and the political crisis in Georgia. We look at the lives of some of the most famous leaders, artists, scientists and personalities in history, including: visionary architect Antoni Gaudi and the design of the Sagrada Familia; Michael Jordan and his bespoke Nike trainers; Princess Diana at the Taj Mahal; and Görel Hanser, manager of legendary Swedish pop band Abba on the influence they've had on the music industry. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the time an Iraqi journalist hurled his shoes at the President of the United States in protest of America's occupation of Iraq; the creation of the Hollywood commercial that changed advertising forever; and the ascent of the first Aboriginal MP.(Photo: Cosmonaut Alexei Leonov.

For decades, David Stratton and Margaret Pomeranz were Australian film reviewing royalty, having built up a loyal following with their weekly show on SBS, The Movie Show. The 90s and early 00s was the peak of David & Margaret's influence over Australian audiences. What they recommended, people would head out and go and see.Both David and Margaret are staunch supporters of cinema, becoming advocates for all kinds of cinema and decrying the impacts of censorship. While both have played roles in the way that film censorship in Australia has impacted what we see, it's Margaret's role with the notorious Larry Clarke film, Ken Park, which saw her make headlines after she put on an ‘illegal' screening of the film after it received a ‘Refused Classification' status, aka, the film being banned from Australia.That pivotal moment in Australian film criticism history is what sits at the heart of Zachary Ruane and Alexei Toliopoulos' comedy show Refused Classification, which is currently making its way around Australian comedy festivals, having recently played at the Adelaide Fringe, with shows to be held in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth on the horizon.The show sees Zachary don a salt and pepper wig as David, while Alexei somehow manages to imbue himself with the spirit of Margaret Pomeranz with her trademark golden locks. Together, they retell this point in Aussie cinema history through the form of comedy show, documentary and verbatim theatre.In the following interview, Zachary and Alexei talk about how the show came about, their experiences watching Ken Park, how Simon Miraudo's brilliant Book of the Banned (buy it here) helped inform the show, and Alexei goes deep on his personal connection with the At the Movies board game.I should add too, if you're interested in reading the transcripts of David and Margaret's work on both The Movie Show and At the Movies, then check out this Letterboxd account which has logged all of them over the years. And keep in mind that the shows are all available on SBS On Demand too, if you want that real nostalgia trip.To keep up to date on where the show is playing, make sure to follow both Zachary and Alexei on Instagram.We are a completely independent and ad free website that lives on the support of listeners and readers just like you.

Bitcoin's security and reliability as a store of value are undeniable. However, its liquidity remained untapped for too long due to a lack of trustless bridges and native smart contract capabilities. As BTC is only native to Bitcoin's L1, any attempt to include it in DeFi relies on the trust assumptions of third party custodians that wrap it. Build On Bitcoin (BOB) aims to expand Bitcoin's functionality by integrating it with Ethereum's smart contract capabilities. BOB operates as an OP Stack L2 with a hybrid design incorporating ZKPs, Bitcoin staking, and Ethereum for data availability. By functioning as a rollup, BOB processes transactions off-chain and batches them for settlement on Bitcoin and Ethereum, significantly improving transaction speed and reducing costs compared to Bitcoin's base layer.Topics covered in this episode:Alexei's backgroundSetbacks for Bitcoin DeFiBitcoin bridgesBitVMBOB operators and trust assumptionsBOB architecture & Bitcoin stakingBitcoin LSTsThe future of Bitcoin DeFiEpisode links:Alexei Zamyatin on XBuild on Bitcoin on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Präsident Putin belohnt «Heldenmütter», die der Nation viele Kinder gebären. Die tiefe Geburtenrate erfüllt den Kreml mit Sorge, besonders seit dem Krieg gegen die Ukraine. Überhaupt propagiert die russische Führung «traditionelle Werte» - die sexuellen Minderheiten bezahlen den Preis. Alexei in Sankt Petersburg ist Punkmusiker. Früher besang er Männer, doch seit die LGBT-Bewegung vom Kreml als «extremistisch» eingestuft wurde, hat er seine Songs umgetextet. Nun singt er von Freundinnen und es geht angeblich um heterosexuelle Liebe. «Natürlich ist es ein totaler Scheiss. Meine Lieder fühlen sich jetzt an wie gelogen». Die schwule Band tarnt sich und ihre Auftritte. Aus Angst vor Repression. Was bleibt, sind unterschwellige Andeutungen. «Wer sie versteht, versteht sie». Der Kreml inszeniert sich als Verteidiger von «traditionellen Werten» in einer «Schicksalsschlacht» gegen den angeblich moralisch korrupten Westen. Seit Beginn der sogenannten «Spezialoperation», dem Krieg gegen die Ukraine, sucht er verstärkt auch nach Mitteln, um die Geburtenrate zu steigern. Frauen, die der Nation zehn Kinder schenken, bekommen eine Prämie. Der Zugang zu Abtreibungen dagegen wird erschwert. Der Kreml weiss dabei die orthodoxe Kirche auf seiner Seite. Doch lässt sich auch die Bevölkerung für Putins «traditionelle Werte» mobilisieren?
