Editor-at-large of The Australian, Paul Kelly looks back at the most profound crisis in Australia's democracy, including the off-the-record information he was given five days before it took place.In 1975 Paul was a young press gallery journalist, working in the cramped old Parliament House, where all it took was a flight of stairs and a few steps to find himself in the Prime Minister's office.Paul was on close terms with both Gough Whitlam and Malcolm Fraser when Australia faced the biggest crisis in its political history.Five days before the dismissal, Paul was told — off the record — that the Governor General, Sir John Kerr, was going to sack the Whitlam Government, but Paul was sworn to secrecy and had to stand back and watch the fallout like everyone else.This year marks the 50th anniversary of the political upheaval, and Paul looks back at his insider's experience in the press gallery from that tumultuous time.Further informationThis episode was produced by Alice Moldovan.

In 2002 Speedstar released their debut, Bruises You Can Touch, and unless you were in Australia, you probably never heard it. The Australian band's first album is a quietly affecting collection of melancholic indie pop that trades in mood and atmosphere over flash. Restrained production gives the band's delicate melodies and wistful vocals room to breathe, creating an intimate and emotionally resonant experience. The album blends acoustic warmth and subtle distorted textures that recalls early Coldplay, Keane, Starsailor, and other 2000s post-Britpop bands, and stands as an overlooked gem of early-2000s indie.   Songs In This Episode Intro - Song For You 9:24 - Crazy Happy 16:39 - This Everyday Life (Into Your Arms) 22:59 - Piano Song (Sometimes) 26:09 - Wishing Your Life Away 29:12 - It's Ok To Be Sad When It Rains Outro - Revolution   Support the podcast, join the DMO UNION at Patreon.

Former England fast bowler David Larter was part of the England squad to head to the 1962/63 Ashes, the last time the team travelled down to Australia by boat. He speaks to the BBC's Chief Cricket Reporter Stephan Shemilt about his memories of the journey, as well as being made to run round the boat to keep fit, stopping off in Colombo to play a warm-up match, and how he went from being talked about by the Australian press to featuring in a single Ashes Test.

3 great Australians

F1TV lead commentator Alex Jacques and Brazilian commentator Felipe Giaffone join Tom Clarkson in the Interlagos paddock to analyse an eventful race in Brazil. Converting two pole positions into Grand Prix and Sprint wins, Lando Norris produced a perfect weekend to move 24 points clear of teammate Oscar Piastri at the top of the standings. With just three rounds left of the 2025 season, does Lando have one hand on the title now? What did Alex and Felipe make of Oscar's 10-second penalty? And how will the Australian be feeling after losing more ground in the championship? After his sensational win from P17 in Sao Paulo last year, Max Verstappen fought back in emphatic style again – this time from the pitlane to P3. How did he and Red Bull execute that incredible comeback after such a difficult qualifying session? Despite that remarkable recovery, Max lost more ground on Lando, but did close the gap to Oscar, so where do his hopes of becoming a five-time World Champion this season lie now? Plus, the guys also reflect on impressive performances from Kimi Antonelli, Ollie Bearman and Liam Lawson, a challenging first home race for Gabriel Bortoleto, and a very disappointing double DNF for Ferrari.

Thanks to Viki, Erin, Weller, and Stella for their suggestions this week! Further reading: Tasmanian tiger pups found to be extraordinary similar to wolf pups The thylacine could open its jaws really wide: A sugar glider, gliding [photo from this page]: A happy quokka and a happy person: A swimming platypus: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. This week we're going to learn about some marsupial mammals suggested by Erin, Weller, and Stella, and a bonus non-marsupial from Australia suggested by Viki. Marsupials are mammals that give birth to babies that aren't fully formed yet, and the babies then finish developing in the mother's pouch. Not all female marsupials actually have a pouch, although most do. Marsupials are extremely common in Australia, but they're also found in most other places around the world. Let's start with Weller's suggestion, the Tasmanian tiger. We've talked about it before, but not recently. We talked about it in our very first episode, in fact! Despite its name, it isn't related to the tiger at all. Tigers are placental mammals, and the Tasmanian tiger is a marsupial. It's also called the thylacine to make things less confusing. The thylacine was declared extinct after the last known individual died in captivity in 1936, but sightings have continued ever since. It's not likely that a population is still around these days, but the thylacine is such a great animal that people hold out hope that it has survived and will one day be rediscovered. It got the name Tasmanian tiger because when European colonizers arrived in Tasmania, they saw a striped animal the size of a big dog, about two feet high at the shoulder, or 61 cm, and over six feet long if you included the long tail, or 1.8 meters. It was yellowish-brown with black stripes on the back half of its body and down its tail, with a doglike head and rounded ears. The thylacine was a nocturnal marsupial native to mainland Australia and the Australian island of Tasmania, but around 4,000 years ago, climate change caused more and longer droughts in eastern Australia and the thylacine population there went extinct. By 3,000 years ago, all the mainland thylacines had gone extinct, leaving just the Tasmanian population. The Tasmanian thylacines underwent a population crash around the same time that the mainland Australia populations went extinct—but the Tasmanian population had recovered and was actually increasing when Europeans showed up and started shooting them. The thylacine mostly ate small animals like ducks, water rats, and bandicoots. Its skull was very similar in shape to the wolf, which it wasn't related to at all, but its muzzle was longer and its jaws were comparatively much weaker. Its jaws could open incredibly wide, which usually indicates an animal that attacks prey much larger than it is, but studies of the thylacine's jaws and teeth show that they weren't strong enough for the stresses of attacking large animals. Next, Stella wanted to learn about the sugar glider, and I was surprised that we haven't talked about it before. It's a nocturnal marsupial native to the forests of New Guinea and parts of Australia, with various subspecies kept as exotic pets in some parts of the world. It's called a glider because of the animal's ability to glide. It has a flap of skin between its front and back legs, called a patagium, and when it stretches its legs out, the patagia tighten and act as a parachute. This is similar to other gliding animals, like the flying squirrel. The sugar glider resembles a rodent, but it isn't. It's actually a type of possum. It lives in trees and has a partially prehensile tail that helps it climb around more easily, and of course it can glide from tree to tree. It's an omnivore that eats insects, spiders, and other small animals, along with plant material, mainly sap. It will gnaw little holes in a tree to get at the sap or gum that ...

In 1941, amid the blistering sands of North Africa, a band of Australian soldiers earned one of the most enduring nicknames in military history — The Rats of Tobruk. Besieged by German and Italian forces, these men held the Libyan port town of Tobruk for eight gruelling months, defying the odds, the desert, and the propaganda of the Axis powers.What began as an insult from Nazi radio became a badge of honour. The Australians dug in — literally — carving homes and defenses from the desert rock while withstanding relentless shelling and attacks. Their courage, defiance, and larrikin spirit turned Tobruk into a symbol of Australian resilience under fire.In this episode, we dig into the siege that defined a generation, the humour that kept the Rats going, and the legacy that cemented their place as one of the fiercest fighting forces of the Second World War.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weird-crap-in-australia--2968350/support.

My guest this week is Lottie Dalziel - founder of Banish, and a leader redefining what sustainability looks like in everyday life. Lottie's journey began with one big question: how can we make it easier for Australians to live and shop more sustainably? What started as a simple idea has grown into a national movement, from shoeboxes filled with bottle tops to a micro-recycling hub transforming waste into beautiful, useful products.

Australian Senator Jordon Steele-John joins Dylan Alcott and Angus O’Loughlin to share what life is really like inside Parliament as a wheelchair user and one of the few disabled politicians in Australia. From rushing to Senate votes without extra time allowances to reshaping accessibility in politics, Jordon gives a candid and inspiring look at how inclusion, policy, and representation intersect in Australia’s most powerful building. The conversation spans his journey from a 23-year-old Greens candidate from WA to a national advocate for accessibility, neurodiversity, and disability rights. Jordon opens up about moments of misunderstanding on the campaign trail, how his ADHD and cerebral palsy shape his leadership, and why true inclusion starts with “getting our own house in order.” This episode is full of insight, humour, and practical advice for anyone—disabled or not—who wants to create change in their community.

Throughout our music interview, Sam reflects on the challenges and rewards of touring as an independent Australian artist, the evolution of indie folk music, collaboration within the five-piece band, and balancing creativity with the demands of the music industry. He also shares insights into recording acoustic sessions, the importance of authenticity in songwriting, and what’s next for The Paper Kites. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Australian indie music or discovering The Paper Kites for the first time, this candid conversation offers a rare glimpse into the mind of one of indie folk’s most thoughtful songwriters.Support the show: https://musicsavedme.net/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today marks what would have been the 30th birthday of Eurydice Dixon, the Melbourne comedian, daughter, and friend who was stalked, raped, and murdered in a city park seven years ago. Her murder, like those of Jill Meagher and Samantha Murphy, highlights the quiet fear shared amongst women across Australia. We remember Eurydice, share a message from her father on this difficult day, and call for a reckoning in policy and prevention to stop violence against women.

Could open banking finally create real competition for money services—beyond the banks? We’re talking to Ben Lynch, who left Xero to found Akahu, the open finance intermediary pushing to change the balance of power between banks, their customers, and their competitors. This episode explores how open banking aims to democratize your financial data, letting fintech businesses innovate and become a “bank without being a bank”. Hear about Ben’s battle to bring the new Consumer Data Right into law, giving individuals more meaningful ownership of their personal information—the foundation of open banking. We discuss how this legislation forces banks to use APIs (application programming interfaces) to share data, and creates more space for disruptors like Sharesies to offer consumers choice. Plus, hear the story of how Ben used a tweet to get his foot in the door at Xero.

Games journalist and PC Gamer editor Jody Macgregor joins Liz and Ben to take control of an oddly Pythonesque Rincewind and discuss the 1995 graphic adventure game Discworld from Teeny Weeny Games and Perfect 10 Productions. A nefarious secret society has summoned a dragon in Ankh-Morpork! It's a suspiciously familiar plot, and of course the only one who can save the city is...Rincewind? This wizard might not know any spells, but he's decidedly snarky and cunning - and accompanied by an inventory window on legs. Together, they'll use petty theft, time travel and logic that would put Rube Goldberg to shame to rid the city of this scaly threat forever...twice! Terry Pratchett was famously an early adopter of computers, and a devoted video game player, so its no surprise that there were other Discworld videogames before...er...Discworld. But this 1995 point-and-click graphic adventure game is by far the most well known and beloved of the lot - despite also being infamous for its difficulty, in a genre known for obscure puzzles with illogical solutions! The player controls a version of Rincewind voiced by Eric Idle, who must travel back and forth all over Ankh-Morpork (and to the edge of the Disc) to collect a variety of random objects to save the city. The plot is loosely based on Guards! Guards!, with some flavour from Moving Pictures and a cast drawn from the early wizards novels. It was followed by two more games from the same team: Discworld II: Missing, Presumed...?!, and Discworld Noir, each with quite different visual styles, and the latter with a brand new protagonist. Sadly, all three are “abandonware” - not only unavailable, but languishing in copyright limbo, with no-one sure enough who currently has the rights to get them published again. Have you had a chance to play Discworld? What do you think of this version of Rincewind, Ankh-Morpork and the Disc? Would you like to hear us do episodes about the two other adventure games?

Palace Intrigue delivers the most explosive royal power revelation yet as Congress formally requests interview with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over his "long-standing friendship" with Jeffrey Epstein, citing financial records showing "massage for Andrew" payments that "raise serious questions" about his sex trafficking connections.But Amanda Platell's bombshell column exposes Princess Kate as the true architect of Andrew's destruction, revealing she's been "relentless in her demands for Andrew to be gone" and operates with an "iron fist," determined that her family be "nowhere near the putrid stench of the Yorks and their revolting behaviour." Sources confirm Andrew made "rude" remarks about Kate in the past, leaving William "infuriated." The devastating irony: Andrew once forced commoner Kate to curtsy to him, but now the stripped royal must BOW to the future Queen—and even to his own daughters Beatrice and Eugenie.Meanwhile, the princesses share emotional Mayfair embrace as King Charles orders them to "stand on their own two feet" financially, ending royal "housing association." Plus, Sarah Ferguson considers Australian exile, while Pitch@Palace winds up with mysterious fund withdrawals.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

In this eerie episode of Just Another Tin Foil Hat, host, Zelia Edgar brings us to New South Wales, Australia, to explore the chilling UFO case known as the Bents Basin Bizarrerie. Six young friends ventured to the basin one evening to investigate the area's mysterious reputation for paranormal activity. After a picnic by the lake, their car suddenly refused to start — and that's when one of them spotted something extraordinary: a strange, otherworldly object resting on a nearby hill. What followed became one of Australia's most intriguing UFO encounters, blending elements of high strangeness, missing time, and unexplained phenomena. Join us as we unpack the witness testimony, the cultural impact, and why Bents Basin remains a hotspot for the unexplained.
