Described as a renegade opera star and cabaret artist, Ali McGregor began her career as a principal soprano with Opera Australia before running away to the circus to become an award winning cabaret performer. Nominated for an ARIA in 2014, she went on to win both a Green Room and Helpmann Award in 2015. She's one of the most in-demand performers on the international festival circuit and is a former artist director of the Adelaide Cabaret Festival, performing at venues from Glastonbury and Carnegie Hall to the Sydney Opera House.She's currently collaborating with the Signum Saxophone Quartet and Musica Viva for Hollywood Songbook, a concert tour exploring the turbulent first half of the 20th Century through the music of emigres such as Kurt Weill and Hanns Eisler, with performances until 17 May.In this interview, Ali traces her journey from performing at Opera Australia to creating innovative, genre-blending shows. She discusses the artistic freedom and creative risks involved in moving from traditional opera to the cabaret scene, and shares insights into her creative process plus her role as an artistic director. The conversation also touches on her efforts to make classical music more accessible and engaging to broader audiences through inventive programming and theatrical flair.

Ali McGregor and Reuben Kaye are two of Australia's most talented, versatile and unique performing artists. Between them they've traversed the world and the worlds of opera, jazz, television, cabaret, comedy, musical theatre, drag…. and pottery. But their stories and journeys are far from simple or linear and they've endured various hardships and adversities in ways that have asked them to embody resilience, courage and leadershipIn this episode we discuss:-Rueben's harrowing ‘death of a thousand cuts' experience of being beaten and marginalised because of his sexuality.-The value of not having one clear goal, when it closes us to potential peripheral opportunities.-How Ali was able to use this theory to feel less attached to the Opera world, and shift into Cabaret when the Opera door closed on her.-Cancelled shows and death threats after Rueben's controversial appearance on Channel 10's ‘The Project'.-The importance of having clear purpose in life.-Reuben being bullied by his director and fired on his first Musical Theatre job, Evita.-Good reviews, bad reviews, apathetic ones, and the challenge of separating the human doing from human being in the art form of Cabaret.-How to be outrageous, play with an audience and still ensure people love you.-The value of cracks in life and why live is everything for them in performance.-The importance of continuing to walk on our journey when things don't go our way.-What freedom means to them, and the freedoms they choose to fight for.-Love, connection and pride for the LGBTQIA+ community.-The intersection between patriarchy, misogyny and transphobia.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to WATCH the full episode @gobehindthemaskFollow us on Instagram and TikTok @gobehindthemaskVisit our website for more information and register to begin YOUR journey behind the mask.www.gobehindthemask.com.au Hosted on Acast.

How Other Dads Dad with Hamish Blake

Adam Hills talks to Hame about everything from the art of negotiating with kids who won't stay in bed, to his subconscious fears of becoming a father.  He shares stories from his own childhood that only now, as a dad, are beginning to make sense, and he & Hame discuss the amazing power of telling your kids you are sorry and that you stuffed up.  Adam Hills has been a mainstay of Australian and UK entertainment for, well… ages.  He hosts The Last Leg on Channel 4 in the UK and has recently rebooted his beloved ABC music quiz show Spicks and Specks, which over the years Hamish has appeared on numerous times (and on each occasion performed horribly).  Hillsy has been an amazing advocate for kids charities and disability awareness and was honoured with an MBE in 2022 (does that make him Sir Hillsy?)  He is married to singer and actress Ali McGregor and together they have 2 daughters.

Every day, Days Eggs produces thousands of eggs to feed families in South Australia and beyond, thanks to their very clever and hen-friendly farms and systems around the state. In this interview, we discuss hen living conditions, egg types, cooking with eggs, and even things to be wary of when re-using egg cartons. The SA Drink Of The Week is Run With The Hunted - see below. And in the Musical Pilgrimage, we have an original song by Libby O'Donovan, presented to us by Zac Tyler, one of the people behind this weekend's Seasonal Sessions at Woodville Town Hall.

Oh, and here's our index of all episode in one concise page Running Sheet: Writing wedding vows 00:00:00 Intro Introduction to the show. 00:04:44 SA Drink Of The Week This week's SA Drink Of The Week is Run With The Hunted, a limited release wine from McLaren Vale, bottled by Matt Cahill as part of his musical album of the same name from his music collaboration project, Evoletah. 00:08:52 Anne and Dion If you had eggs for breakfast today, there's a darn good chance they were produced by DAYS Eggs, South Australia's largest egg producer. The story behind this farm's production of this humble source of protein is fascinating. So I thought I'd ask the owners, Dion and Anne Andary, to join me to scratch around and peck at all the various topics related to chickens and eggs. Welcome. As I was planning for this interview, I asked myself, what topic should come first; the chickens or the eggs?  I was tempted to start wtih chickens because so much of the egg story these days is focussed on their welfare but then I remembered that eggs have had a chequered history, especially in the west, so I'd love to hatch our story there. Dion and Anne, you started Days Eggs in 1987. What was the nutritional and public health status of eggs at that time? In fact, Jason Gosseck, writing in Medium, recalled growing up amid the cholestrol scare of the 80s and how the price of eggs plummeted and how his dad doubled down and they had eggs every meal. How did it play out in your world? Anne, I believe you did most of the sales work in the early days. Who was buying and what was involved? Have you noticed any changes in egg consumption over the years? Fitness junkies with raw eggs, the brunch culture, the "egg whites good, egg yolks bad" movement, etc? How are most of your eggs sold today - supermarkets, commercial trade, etc? For a long time, I never cooked eggs at home, even though I loved having poached eggs when out? I just didn't like the eggy smell when doing dishes. Bizarre! Now I have an egg poacher. How do you cook eggs? Any tips? We're recording here at Lower Light/Two Wells, which is the headquarters of Days Eggs. Can you take us through the story of how you outgrew your first base and then bought up other farms as they became available? I'd like to turn to hen welfare now because even this morning in our BnB at Claire, they provided eggs and I recoiled when I saw Cage Eggs. So let's walk through Cage Eggs, Barn Laid Eggs, and Free Range Eggs, because each have their pros and cons. People argue Free Range leads to happy chickens. How do you know when a chicken is happy? 00:56:48 Musical Pilgrimage In the musical pilgrimage, we have Don't Feel Down by Libby Donovan. Before we get there, though, I want to bring in Amelia Ryan's "other half" Zac Tyler, who is another arts professional, known by many for his work with the artistic directors of the Adelaide Caberet Festival (Kate Ceberano, Barry Humphries, Ali McGregor and Eddie Perfect). He now runs his own company, Release Creative, who have gone on to create Barossa Contemporary, a multi-disciplinary arts festival in the Barossa Valley, and he's also worked with Amelia to create Seasonal Sessions, a weekend of intriguing song, story, and cabaret at the Woodville Town Hall, May 6, 7, 8 2022. The weekend kicks off with local original music on Friday May 6 at 8.00pm and on Saturday May 7 at 6.00pm will feature a celebration of Australia's pioneering women of pop and rock starring Amelia Ryan and Adelaide Cabaret Festival 2022 Icon Award winner Libby O'Donovan in UNSUNG. At 8.00pm Charmaine Jones and the GOSPO Collective deliver the classic Aretha Franklin standards in Soul Serenade - The Aretha Legacy. On Sunday 8 May at 3.00pm, the acclaimed writer Clementine Ford and her bestie, Libby O'Donovan, deliver a secular sermon that mines matters of the heart in Love Sermon. But, back to the interview with Zac, let's get the goss out the way. Of the Cabaret Festival directors you worked with, who is most memorable and why? What is this arts festival in the Barossa? What does cabaret bring to the table that other art forms don't?

You know those moments of regret that still haunt you from your PRE-growth journey? All those drunk hookups, toxic friendships, and cries for love & attention... yeah, those moments. Those are all thanks to EMOTIONAL ILLITERACY, aka the lack of control over our emotions and our inability to healthfully cope. On the other side of the regrets, missteps, and "WTF" moments is EMOTIONAL HEALTH. And today's guest Ali McGregor is joining us to share how she found her way back to peace, self-love, and resilience after a long stint of illiteracy, unworthiness, and unmet expectations. ALI'S TWENTIES THOUGHTS: One of my proudest moments was finally turning inwards and truly loving my body, no longer being so nasty and negative towards it. Being able to catch myself now and having that awareness has been like letting go of 100 pounds of dead weight like I'm coming back to me. Along the way, I found out a lot of what I DON'T like. It's like finding a needle in the haystack... You just have to start somewhere and figure it out along the way. But if you sit around and wait for the moment, it's just never right. You can be CREATIVE. You don't have to be stuck in these cookie-cutter positions that everyone has already done. You might not know what you want to do today because that job might not be created. So go design & create it yourself! Pursue anything RELENTLESSLY and just go for it. And know that it's not a failure if something doesn't go right. It was just a learning lesson along the way.

In episode 11, Geraldine talks to fellow musical pan-artist (although he's made a lot more films than I have) and Hairy Soul Man Kai Smythe about festivals vs "fistivals", candle-making parents, non-childproof comedy spots, how bloody adorable his room-mate's dog is, status anxiety in the arts, growing up the odd one out in your town and why it's OK to take a little while to find your creative voice. Kai Smythe along with his some-time musical comedy partner Tim Mager recently won Best Cabaret in Melbourne Fringe (2015) and were nominated for a staggering six Green Room Awards in Victoria, Australia (2015). He is a writer, film-maker, actor, musician and songwriter and plays enough instruments for me to want to rehearse a lot more. We first met at Triple RRR Community Radio when were both shortlisted for the 2011 Brian McCarthy Moosehead Award, and have crossed paths ever since. He's a hairy man, and a snappy dresser.  Includes some swearing and stories of kids getting insults wrong or learning horrible insults from their parents. Name-drops a few clown/cabaret/comedy folks, including Ali McGregor, Ruth Wilkin, Harley Breen and Dr Brown.
