Jonathan Dyer emailed: "Hey Marc, Thank you thank you. Lovely programme as always (I'm currently listening … as far as Dál Riata so far… whilst sending the final DDP and artwork off for the album. So it's really finished.… and trying not to melt in the unseasonably weather that we're really not cut out for. Much love" John Mahony messaged on Patreon: "Mark, thanks and bravo for the stand on AI. It seems it's getting harder and harder to avoid, let alone the impact on the environment and people's jobs in other fields. Let's keep finding ways to support real people making real music! Slainte!" John Sharkey White, II messaged in response to the Plastic Free July PSA: "Hi Mark, I was listening to one of your latest podcasts and, as a physician, thought I could add to your discussion of plastics. I wanted to share some important health information about plastic containers. New research shows that tiny pieces of plastic — called microplastics — may be getting into our bodies more than most people realize. What Are Microplastics? Microplastics are very small plastic pieces, usually smaller than a pencil eraser. They break off from larger plastics over time. Scientists have found these particles in human blood, lungs, liver, and even in unborn babies. This means most people are already being exposed. How Do They Get Into Our Bodies? Plastic food and drink containers are one of the main sources. When plastic containers get scratched, worn out, or heated up, they can release tiny particles into your food or drink. Bottled water and packaged foods are also common sources. Plastics also contain added chemicals — like phthalates and bisphenols — that can leak into what you eat and drink. Why Does It Matter? Scientists are still learning how harmful microplastics really are, but early studies suggest they may cause inflammation, cell damage, and problems with the immune system. Some research also points to possible links with heart disease and reproductive health. Most experts agree that more studies are needed before we fully understand the risks. What Can You Do? The good news is there are simple steps you can take to lower your exposure: Switch to glass, stainless steel, or ceramic containers when you can Never microwave food in plastic — heat causes plastic to release more particles and chemicals Use a reusable stainless - steel water bottle instead of single - use plastic bottles Cut back on bottled water Try to buy food with less plastic packaging Throw away old or scratched plastic containers Dust and vacuum your home regularly — microplastics can float in the air too You probably can't avoid microplastics completely, but these small changes can make a real difference while scientists continue to study the long - term effects."

I realize that there's other ways to listen to the podcast but I'm also trying to listen to every old one I can and I still have a couple of hundred to go through and I'd hate to start over. Not sure how any of that works, but in the very least I thought you should know." And finally, just after our July 4th celebrations… Patrick VanHorn emailed: "Keep speaking up for America. Hi Mark, I've been a listener for years, albeit always for free. But today, after listening to episode 749 - Celtic Protest Songs - I knew I had to finally become a paid subscriber. Thank you for introducing me to new Celtic performers. And thank you for speaking up for America. Slainte!"
Send us a textEven more so than usual, this week's episode of the @weheardwonders podcast is one made in Scotland, with all five acts up for review hailing from north of the border. It's an eclectic bunch too, taking in Barry Can't Swim's bangin' and increasingly ubiquitous dance-pop, Lavinia Blackwall's out-of-time folk-rock, the youthful exuberance of The Cords, the worldly, old-worldy storytelling of Ian Humberstone, and Colin Steele Quartet stepping out into the night with their interpretations of The Blue Nile.

I stopped by to see John Colin Steele in scenic Wolseley where we discussed Having a sense of humour, the most beautiful language, the language of skateboarding and other specialized languages, teaching grammar, the relevance of ‘social justice' for framing writing, what students need for the 21st century and how English teachers can prepare them, millennials, Colin's experience learning English in the Sixth grade in Switzerland, a great lesson to stimulate writing, and treating each writer as an individual.
Bestselling American author Justin Cronin - in his only Canberra appearance between the Melbourne and Brisbane Writers Festival - discusses his life and books with Colin Steele, particularly his recently completed post-apocalyptic Passage trilogy. The Weekend Australian has commented that the trilogy,The Passage (2010), The Twelve(2012) and The City of Mirrors (2016), is "part dystopian essay, FBI procedural, vampire saga and military novel. There are echoes of John Steinbeck, Cormac McCarthy, Bram Stoker, Tom Clancy and Stephen King". King himself has commented that the trilogy "is remarkable for the unremitting drive of its narrative, for the breathtaking sweep of its imagined future, and for the clear lucidity of its language". Film rights have been sold to Ridley Scott. Harvard educated Cronin is also the author of Mary and O'Neil (which won the PEN/Hemingway Award and the Stephen Crane Prize), and The Summer Guest. He has been a Fellow of the US National Endowment for the Arts and is a Distinguished Faculty Fellow at Rice University. Colin Steele is an ANU Emeritus Fellow and is Convenor of the Meet the Author series.
Born in the United States to immigrant Chinese parents, Amy Tan is an internationally celebrated writer. Her novels The Joy Luck Club, The Kitchen God’s Wife, The Hundred Secret Senses, The Bonesetters Daughter, and Saving Fish from Drowning, are all New York Times bestsellers. She is also the author of a memoir, The Opposite of Fate, and two children's books. Her work has been translated into 35 languages. Join Amy Tan and Colin Steele, Emeritus Fellow, ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences as they discuss the collapse of China’s imperial dynasty to the inner workings of courtesan houses in her new novel Valley of Amazement. With her characteristic wisdom, grace, and humour, Amy Tan conjures a story of the inheritance of love, its mysteries and senses, and its illusions and truths.
