This week, we get outside and get our hands dirty as we take a closer look at the world around us, whether that involves rethinking the uses of the land or trying to protect it. This week's stories don't just call on us to pay attention to the environment around us. It's also a cautionary tale of what can happen when we don't. The Weedy One Are weeds just misunderstood? Society has been conditioned to think about what's good and bad in our gardens. But the what of those surprise guests in our flowerbeds is useful. In our first story, Diego encourages us to strip away our preconceptions and look at weeds differently. Produced by Catarina Fraga Matos. The conservation and community of Merri Creek In our second story, we head to Melbourne’s northern suburbs. Maxine Forde follows the Friends of the Merry Creek, who worked hard to rehabilitate spaces around the waterway. Produced by Maxine Ford Supervising Producer Persephone Waxman Special thanks to Dan Semo and Louisa Lim. Martha Our final story was a recording of a live performance at a Read to Me event in March this year. It is an elegy to the last passenger pigeon, Martha, who died in the United States in 1914. You can find out more about Read to Me here.

In this week’s episode, we continue with stories from the students at the University of Melbourne and explore the idea of having a sustainability mindset – not just when it comes to the environment around us, but also when it comes to activities that bring communities together or online platforms that try to divide us. What if nothing matters? With all the crises happening, many young people feel helpless and become nihilistic, thinking life as meaningless. Sometimes, I have a similar feeling. Am I nihilistic, or as many people said, pessimistic?Through chatting with the author of The Romanticism of Contemporary Theory: Institution, Aesthetics, Nihilism, Associate Professor Justin Clemens, and my Gen Z friends, we discuss what nihilism could be for young people, and our way pursuing the “meaning of life”. Produced by Tin Yan Wong Supervising Producer Thomas Phillips Sharing the city with possums As cities continue to expand, more native wildlife have to adapt to urban life. The possum is one of the most familiar urban wildlife species in Australia. In this story, reporter Peiyao Xu has “a conversation with a possum” to explore residents' views on possums, and an interview with Dr Kylie Soanes to understand the living situations of urban possums and explore the future of people and urban wildlife as “neighbours”. Produced by Peiyao Xu Supervisign Producer Persephone Waxman Gender Online Debate Young men and women are getting increasingly socially and politically engaged online – but seemingly in opposing ways. Ava Morrison investigates, by speaking to a digital communications expert and a feminist TikToker, about incels, feminism, and online hostility. Produced by Ava Morrison Supervising Producer Thomas Phillips Beyond the Needle The tattoo industry in Melbourne is facing a complex challenge. While the city remains a hub for ink culture, artists are grappling with a growing demand for sustainability in a sector dominated by single-use plastics and strict health regulations. As artists innovate and clients become more conscious of their environmental impact, the industry is at a crossroads. Can tattooing evolve without compromising safety? Preeshita Shah reports. Produced by Preeshita Shah Supervising Producer Thomas Phillips Forest Food Gardens According to the Foodbank Australia Report, 3.5 million households are experiencing food insecurity. While climate change and social disconnection deepen the crisis, Melbourne Skyfarm transforms a rooftop car park into an urban farm to grow food and build community. So far, it has produced 3.4 tonnes of food worth $118,000, directly to food relief charity OzHarvest.Our reporter Cheuk Lam Li spoke to project leader Zarah Copeland and urban farmer Dario Rivero on how Melbourne Skyfarm is bringing changes in these challenging times and why it matters.

The Great Tantra of Vajrasattva is a Root Tantra of the Space Section first translated into Tibetan in the 8th Century by Vairochana Rakshita, a famous translator during the early period of Buddhism in Tibet. This tantra is one of a handful of the earliest translations of Ati Yoga teachings into the Tibetan language, where they were preserved long after the originals disappeared in India, possibly during the Islamic invasions. Vairochana did not attribute these Ati Yoga source texts to himself, but rather to Garab Dorje, who was revered as a full emanation of Vajrasattva in human form. Vairochana's translations stand on their own as jewels of Wisdom, the core teaching being always the same: the luminous, natural, non-dual mind of Great Perfection itself. Reading: excerpts from the full tantra. Compiled by Yeshe Donden (Roger Calverley) integrating various contemporary English translations.

 The Cold War Truth Commission was a day of online lectures and discussion in 2021, in essence it was a trial about the origins of the Cold War, and the millions of human lives it took, mainly from US invasions and proxy wars. Sponsoring organizations included Witness for Peace Southwest, School of the Americas Watch, Code Pink, KPFK Radio, Project Censored and others. Compiled from that webinar, Rachel's new book features 54 vital testimonials from well-known people including, whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, national director of RootsAction.org Norman Solomon and cofounder of Code Pink Media Benjamin, as well as every day people who shared how they were personally affected by the U.S. Cold War.For nearly a decade Rachel has been raising awareness about the US Cold War. In 2017, she started the Cold War Truth Commission, after the presidential election. She noted, the reason she started this work was because, during the aftermath of the 2016 election, Rachel juxtaposed Senator Bernie Sanders to Donald Trump and what she called the two dynamics; the voice and the movement of Sanders, and the idea that it could not be accepted.Rachel asks, how is it possible that something like FDR's economic New Deal could be almost the law of the land,  from a supremely popular four-time elected President, and yet, Bernie Sanders was basically saying the same thing, an economic New Deal, and it wasn't even possible for it to be on the Democratic ticket? What had happened, politically, to cause that sea change in our culture and our politics and what we thought was possible in the very definition of the United States and who we think we are?

We continue our celebration of June as Pride month with more live performances from Maeve Marsden's Queerstories. This week’s continued celebration of queer stories is about finding love … or realising that you just want to be loved … whether that’s through a niche television show and a whale obsession or being the only trans woman at a straight sex party in Coolangatta. Straight People At The Sex Party Sean tells us about wanting to truly be seen and to be more than just a stepping stone for someone else to discover their queerness. Written and Performed by Sean Dowling Psychics, Ocean Girl and Falling in Love Chloe lets us know that finding love can be as momentous as spotting a humpback whale from the beach.

Sydney is full of hidden stories. Lindsey Vassallo guides us to one of those stories hidden under Hyde Park in the Sydney CBD and investigates the mystery of the Travellator. Travelator Lindsey takes a deep dive into Sydney’s most forgotten and strangest landmark, hidden right under the grounds of Hyde Park. The travelator spans almost 700ft and is accompanied by an equally long mural, which has its own fascinating history. For Lindsey, it’s a place surreal enough to feel like it can only appear in dreams. This is a story complete with world records, controversy, mystery, love and a courtroom drama.

This week Dave returns as we dive into our bag of covermount CDs and unearth a real gem. If you were buying Kerrang! in August 2002, you might remember issue 918 with The Prodigy on the cover. What you definitely remember is the cover-mount CD that came with it - Hometaping Volume Two, curated by Amen's Casey Chaos. This wasn't your typical corporate compilation of radio-friendly metal and whatever major labels were pushing that month. This was a proper education in underground extremity, compiled by someone who'd been living in the trenches since he was photographed at Black Flag gigs in 1982. Casey wasn't messing about. He whittled down his selection from 60 songs, phoned Henry Rollins and Satyr personally for unreleased tracks, and designed the cover himself. The result was 26 tracks of whiplash-inducing genius that introduced countless metal and punk fans to bands they'd never have discovered otherwise. From Refused's "New Noise" and Iron Monkey's feral sludge to birthday party's pre-Bad Seeds insanity and proper OG punk from Discharge and X-Ray Specs, this was cultural education disguised as a free CD. The fact we're still dissecting every track choice 20+ years later proves Casey achieved something genuinely special - a compilation that worked as both a history lesson and a challenge to dig deeper into the underground.

KMJ listeners are reacting to the controversy surrounding Fresno Unified School District Superintendent Misty Her, after a dossier presented to the Fresno Teachers Association (FTA) was found to contain fabricated quotes—allegedly generated using artificial intelligence. Compiled shortly after Her took office, the document accused union leaders of personal attacks. FTA President Manuel Bonilla denounced the dossier as an attempt to suppress dissent and demanded accountability. Superintendent Her has acknowledged that the quotes were AI-generated, intensifying calls for transparency and oversight within the district.

There is nothing that compares to making that decision to leave everything you know behind. To choose to make a home in a foreign place. And while you might have some pre-conceived ideas … you might even have done your research…none of it will quite compare to the experience itself. In our story this week, Michael’s journey is more than about moving from place to place, but also a journey through different stages of his life. 177 Nations of Tasmania: Micheal from Benin Since arriving in Tasmania about a year ago, Michael has got somewhat accustomed to people questioning whether Benin is a real country - an indication of how little known his homeland is in Australia. Benin is a small country in West Africa, squeezed between the much larger Nigeria and Togo. It was formerly part of a much larger Kingdom of Dahomey and was also one of the centres of the Atlantic slave trade. A legacy of this is seen in places like Haiti, Cuba, Brazil and New Orleans, where Voodoo is still practised, a belief system originating in Benin. In western culture this has become associated with pushing pins into dolls, but in Benin it is still a very much accepted bona fide religion. Michael's story is remarkable other ways though. From a tough time as a child at a boarding school in Nigeria, to University studies in Ghana, where he'd secretly hoped to further his soccer career, he eventually got a scholarship to study agriculture in Israel. During his year in Israel he fell in love with a Filipina, and she was the eventual inspiration for him to come to Tasmania. This story was originally published on 177 Nations of Tasmania, produced by Mark Thomson.

This week, stories of democracy, dreams, and things happening in and out of the ballot box. Elections Elsewhere by Phoebe Adler-Ryan Have you ever wondered how elections operate in other corners around the world? In our first story, ATB takes you on a ‘election tour’ of different countries as our volunteers - from China, Vietnam, some with connections to the US - gather to talk about what voting is like in their country. Can you vote in your country? What does voting mean to you? Featuring Lindsey Vassalo, Patrick McKenzie, Ray Vo and Sue. Counting the Vote by Grace Gooda Next story brings you into the Australian ballot box. In this story, we step inside election day through the eyes of an AEC worker - where impartiality, integrity, and counting replace the usual political buzz. From securing ballot bins to missing out on the ‘democracy sausage’, it’s a behind-the-scenes look at the quiet work that keeps Australia's democracy ticking. Welcome to a day in the life of a ballot counter. That story was produced by Grace Gooda in partnership with the Centre for Advancing Journalism and The Yarn from Melbourne University. Young Yarners by Micah Kickett Our third story explores the Young Yarners Program, a new initiative tackling voter disengagement in First Nations communities. From Parliament House workshops to local projects back home, young leaders from the program are building knowledge, breaking down barriers, and making sure Indigenous voices are heard loud and clear at the ballot box. That story was produced by Micah Kickett for The Wire. Young Matters by Ruby Perryman In this story, we hear from a young voter navigating life on Centrelink, housing insecurity, and the growing feeling that dreams like home ownership are slipping away. As the election approaches, it's not grand promises that shape her vote - it’s the urgent need for real support in an anxious, uncertain future. That story was produced by Ruby Perryman in partnership with the Centre for Advancing Journalism and The Yarn, from Melbourne University. Hope for the future by Catarina Fraga Matos and Kwame Slusher Confusion, curiosity, excitement to frustration. Young Australians paint a vivid palette of emotions as they face their first vote. Whether it’s dreaming of climate action, fairness, or just finally being heard, these young Australian voters have big hopes, even if the path to the ballot box is still a little messy. Hear them out.

To mark Earthday we’re playing two stories that explore how we can use disruption to effect change and save the environment around us. In our first story, Meagan takes us journey on the Murray-Baaka River that led to the Menindee fish kill in 2019. In Murky Waters Produced by Megan Williams (they/them). The supervising producer was Richard Dinnen. It was produced as part of the National Features and Documentary Series back in 2020. Further Notes from Megan This story was produced after the mass fish kills in 2018/2019 that occurred during the drought. It's estimated 1-2 million fish died in this event and it was a very rude shock to the local community (and the world) as the program details. However, there were much bigger mass fish kills in the flood of 2023 (20-30 million fish).Following the 2023 mass fish kills, NSW has taken a number of steps to better mitigate risk of fish kills, active management to maintain dissolved oxygen at critical times, the NSW Office of the Chief Scientist and Engineer have published an independent investigation into the 2023 mass fish kills, there was a connectivity expert panel report published last year and there is now more transparent updates on the work that NSW Department of Climate Change Energy Environment and Water is doing.For a recap on the baaka, tune in to Water Watch Radio's program:https://www.waterwatchradio.com/podcast/episode/31983821/episode-92-restoring-our-darling-baaka What Democracy Looks Like (Archive) This story was produced by Ryan Pemberton, back in 2019. The supervising producer was Zacha Rosen. Since then, anti-protest legislation has been creeping in - over the last five years. New South Wales, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Queensland have all passed anti-protest laws that impose significant fines, and even imprisonment, for protesting. https://www.hrlc.org.au/news/2024/07/03/protest-peril Support emerging producers, artists & creatives by hitting follow or subscribe wherever you get your Podcasts.
