Meet two participants of a sport especially for birdwatchers. This episode is about competitive birdwatching, the magic of the Hunter region of NSW and how birds can bring us together.Mick Roderick is a Twitchathon tragic. In 2023, he notched up his 25th consecutive Twitchathon – all of them in the main race. To maintain this, he twice flew back from year-long overseas backpacking trips to partake in those years' Twitchathons, as well as being ‘close to home' when his first child's due-date was nearing. Mick works at BirdLife Australia and is the current Regent Honeyeater Recovery Coordinator, as well as being the current Vice President of the Hunter Bird Observers Club. Mick's other passion is seabirds and he has been running pelagic birding trips since 2010. In between, he has birded on 6 continents as a ‘backpacking birder' and knows full well how heavy field guides can get inside a backpack (especially South American ones!).Bastian Fox Phelan is a writer of memoir and environmental essays from Mulubinba Newcastle, Australia. Bastian writes about bodies, binaries, place, and environment. Bastian's debut memoir, How to Be Between, was published by Giramondo in 2022.

L’Aeroporto di Malpensa diventa "Berlusca" - Orbán giramondo: visite a Putin e al dittatore Cinese

È stata dura! Sì, con Dario Cascio è stata dura perfino per me. Innanzitutto perché non ha mai abbassato la guardia, ma anche e sopratutto perché ha disinnescato tutte le mie provocazioni con l'autoironia delle persone intelligenti. Finalmente avrete anche voi l'occasione di emozionarvi per il “viaggio” di The Sicilian Wanderer: come un moderno Odisseo vaga spavaldo nel mondo, collezionando mitiche avventure, puntando sempre la prua della nave verso la sua Itaca, ovvero Palermo. Non è successo sempre, anzi quasi mai, però intervistare Dario mi ha fatto trovare un amico: arguto, simpatico, di cultura, dal gran cuore… peccato sia di San Lorenzo.

Talk of Australian cartoons—and not just Bluey—morphs into a look at several specific passages in Wright's Praiseworthy, discussion what makes the book "difficult" to read, the style of humor, what pushes us away from the text and then re-grabs out attention, and much more.

From discussion of Ohio and disturbing news about everyone's favorite Australian export, this episode skirts talking too deeply about Alexis Wright's Praiseworthy  (New Directions, And Other Stories, Giramondo) to discuss challenges of getting into particular books, what the purpose of this podcast is in trying to assist in that and get whatever it is we get out of finishing something we might otherwise give up on. (We're not giving up on this book! Just a meta-commentary.) Also: The University of Rochester's wifi was all screwed up during the recording. Most of the big gaps have been erased, but it is a bit choppy at the start, for which we apologize. This week's music is "If Not Now, Then When?" by Australia's own King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard.

Hi Everyone, Welcome to this episode of Better off Read. First of all, apologies for no podcasts in November. Things got a bit on top of me and I wasn't able to record an episode. Beyond a Joke will be back in January, with more conversations with people about things that make us laugh. We'll be starting the year talking to some of the amazing people who took part in the Verb After-Hours: Beyond a Joke event which was held in November. In the meantime, over December I'll be sharing a few recordings of work I've written this year. In this episode, it's a short story I wrote for the amazing journal HEAT. The story is called Please Unlock to Drive and I wrote it after I read an article about e-ecooters being dumped Also in the mix of this story was my sadness and anger over the housing market and gig economy. I am often interested in work and it always finds it's way into my work. Slight, life-meets-fiction fact, my father worked as an Uber driver until the pandemic got too much for him. It was so great to work with Alexandra Christie on this story. HEAT is published by Giramondo who published my book Nothing to See. I've just finished working with Nick Tapper from Giramondo on my next novel Audition which comes out with Giramondo next year. I am so grateful to Giramondo. Nothing to See was scuppered, like so many things, by covid and I am so grateful that they are taking another chance on me with this new book. It is a dream to work with Giramondo. Here's a bit about HEAT from their website HEAT is an Australian literary journal renowned for its dedication to literary quality, and its commitment to publishing innovative and imaginative poetry, fiction, essays, criticism and the hybrid forms. The aim of the magazine has always been to publish innovative Australian and international writers of the highest standard. Fifteen issues were published in the first series, from 1996 to 2000, with internal design by Toni-Hope Caten and covers by Harry Williamson. It was followed by the new series of HEAT, designed by Harry Williamson, with twenty-four issues published between 2001 and 2011. The third series of HEAT commenced publishing bimonthly in 2022, in a new design by Jenny Grigg. It is edited by Alexandra Christie, with the support of a distinguished editorial board. There are two really exciting new podcasts that I wanted to say, Yay!! about. Flying Fetu podcast of some of the sessions that took place at their recent talanoa. The best way to get information about this is by following Flying Fetu on Instagram Rats in the Gutter is a new podcast by Sam Te Kani and Johanna Cosgrove.

Nato a Berna da padre italiano e madre spagnola, Fabio Gomez ha fatto del mondo la sua casa. Nei suoi piani c'è un nuovo lungo viaggio in Sud America e poi, chissà, anche un tour Down Under.

Da 64 anni (dei 72 di mandato pastorale) in Santa Sede con una grande carriera diplomatica e un impegno ecclesiale durato per tutto il mandato di ben sette Papi: da Pio XII a Francesco. Sarà ricordato per il suo «grande spirito di condivisione e di amore», il cardinale Agostino Cacciavillan valdagnese (Novale) di nascita e battesimo ma, a 2 anni d'età, trasferitosi con la famiglia ad Arzignano. Entrò nel seminario di Vicenza nel 1937 e fu ordinato sacerdote il 26 giugno 1949. Invitato a entrare nella Pontificia Accademia Ecclesiastica di Piazza della Minerva a Roma (vi fu alunno dal 1957 al 1959) e dopo alcuni mesi di lavoro in Segreteria di Stato fu assegnato come Segretario alla Nunziatura Apostolica nelle Filippine.Diplomatico Prestò il suo servizio prima a Manila per quattro anni e mezzo, poi fu Segretario della Nunziatura a Madrid in Spagna e per alcuni mesi anche a Lisbona. Nel 1976 Papa Paolo VI lo nominò arcivescovo titolare di Amiterno e Pro Nunzio Apostolico in Kenya e Delegato Apostolico nelle Seychelles. Anno in cui ricevette l'ordinazione episcopale. Poi incarichi prestigiosi in Kenya, in India (pro nunzio apostolico) e Nepal. Nel 1990, con medesime funzioni, alla Nunziatura Apostolica negli Stati Uniti d'America e nel 1998 fu nominato presidente dell'Apsa, Amministrazione del patrimonio della sede apostolica di cui è presidente emerito dall'1 ottobre 2002.Conclave Ha partecipato al conclave del 2005 che ha eletto Papa Benedetto XVI. Da papa Giovanni Paolo II fu creato cardinale nel concistoro del 21 febbraio 2001. Dall'1 marzo 2008 al 20 febbraio 2011 è stato cardinale protodiacono ovvero colui che dalla loggia centrale della basilica di San Pietro ha l'incarico di pronunciare in mondovisione il nome del nuovo Papa.La sorella e i nipoti «Era un fratello molto affettuoso, legato a tutti noi pur avendo vissuto tanto lontano da casa - ricorda la sorella Agnese, unica sorella ancora in vita assieme ai fratelli Diego e Giuseppe (in totale erano nove) -. Ha servito e amato la Chiesa, riconoscente al Signore per la sua chiamata al sacerdozio. Generoso verso chi chiedeva aiuto, disponibile sempre con gli amici. Tornava sempre volentieri ad Arzignano. Amato dai numerosi nipoti. Sarà sempre nei nostri cuori». «Si è affidato ed è andato, come il servo buono e fedele del Vangelo, con serenità e pace - ricordano i nipoti delle famiglie Cacciavillan e Giuliari, tra i quali anche Paolo ieri in Vaticano, con i quali aveva un rapporto speciale -. Siamo grati per il dono della sua presenza con noi, particolarmente affettuosa e attenta specie in questi ultimi anni, e di una vita dedicata a Cristo e alla Chiesa davvero con amore, discrezione, spirito di servizio e umiltà».Il ricordo «Ci ha guidati sulla strada della condivisione del volersi bene e dell'unità famigliare», ricordano suor Rita e suor Chalet che lo assistevano nella Residenza di Santa Marta in Vaticano, da quando è diventato cardinale, dove si è spento ieri notte. Esequie domani alle 11, all'Altare della Cattedra della Basilica di San Pietro con liturgia celebrata dal cardinale Giovanni Battista Re, decano del Collegio cardinalizio, insieme ai cardinali, agli arcivescovi e ai vescovi. Dopo la messa, Papa Francesco presiederà il rito dell'Ultima Commendatio e della Valedictio.

Jessica Au's first novel, Cargo, was published by Picador in 2011 and was highly commended in the Kathleen Mitchell Award for a writer under 30. She is the former deputy editor of Meanjin, and is currently an associate editor at Aeon. Her new book Cold Enough for Snow won the inaugural Novel Prize and was published by Giramondo, New Directions and Fitzcarraldo Editions in February 2022, and translated into fifteen languages. She joined us today to read from and talk about Cold Enough for Snow. During the interview we talked about such things as the way she conveys interiority, about the mother-daughter relationship in her book and the philosophic tension between the way they see the world combined with the tenderness that exists between them, on elegy, perception, ekphrasis, memory, migration and many other key themes that this beautiful book encompasses. Cold Enough for Snow (and more information about the book) can be found here: https://giramondopublishing.com/jessica-au-a-note-on-cold-enough-for-snow/ Jessica's website: https://www.jessicaau.com Compulsive Reader's review of Cold Enough for Snow: http://www.compulsivereader.com/2022/02/21/a-review-of-cold-enough-for-snow-by-jessica-au/

‘Cold Enough For Snow' is Jessica Au's tightly crafted, award-winning second novel that wrestles with the tension that comes with words unspoken. As mother and daughter travel through Japan together, the unbridgeable emotional distance between them unravels; as everything is awakened in that which can't be said. Out now through Giramondo.

Il viaggiatore che incontriamo oggi è viaggiatore a tutti gli effetti: dopo la prima esperienza all'estero fatta da ragazzo decise di abbandonare il lavoro nella ditta di famiglia per scegliere di diventare un giramondo.

Today I've got a book that's pure Sydney.Max Easton is a writer, musician and podcaster from Western Sydney.His debut novel The Magpie Wing comes out this week and I'm just going to keep saying it; this is a sucky time to be an artist creating because it is so hard to get your art out there. The Magpie Wing is a sprawling narrative taking in the geography and the history or Sydney and its subcultures and if you miss walking around the streets of your town and getting out to see bands and drinks in beer gardens; well The Magpie Wing might just be the next best thing.Starting us off in the 90sWalt, Helen and Duncan are growing up in the Western Suburbs of Sydney. Walt and Duncan are paired on the footy field. Duncan serves as Walt's protector, while Walt explores his precocious footballing talent. Rugby League is tribal for the boys and their families and they know that they's rather live in the legacy of the likes of Tommy Raudonikas than the silvertails in the east. Walt's older sister Helen can't play with the boys but she can run water and plays to the team.As the three grow up together they each start looking for more than their suburban existence offers.As their family life breaks down Walt and Helen gravitate towards Sydney's Inner West. There they find underground success in the punk and noise music scene, and Walt is able to explore his growing political consciousness.Duncan stays at home, diligently completing uni and finds himself in a more conventional job.As the three criss-cross each other's lives they find themselves with contradictory purposes and opaque goals. Always present though is where they came from and how bening from the west defines them in other people's eyes.The Magpie Wing is a compelling story told in a matter of fact, almost deadpan tone. Spanning three decades and taking in much more of Sydney's history and east west divide the storytelling avoids nostalgia as assiduously as it avoids taking sides despite its characters strongly held beliefs.Exploring classicism, gentrification, punk ethos and the ever present danger of selling out The Magpie Wing cuts its politics with humour and is not afraid to pull the rug out from under itself.I think there's plenty for any Sydneysider to recognise in The Magpie Wing and plenty more to learn, because in our so-called City of Villages people are rarely from more than one place and by virtue a tourist everywhere else they go.Max Easton's The Magpie Wing is brand new. It's out this week from Giramondo who are a fabulous independent publisher of poetry, fiction and non-fiction.If you want to hear more about The Magpie Wing, Max Easton is joining me on the show this Saturday morning. He's a terrific guy to chat to so tune in and he's also a great muso so I might even get some tunes up on the show...Want more great conversations with Australian authors?Discover this and many more conversations on Final Draft every week from 2ser.https://2ser.com/final-draft

In questo periodo di difficile convivenza con il Covid-19 una delle mancanze maggiori è sicuramente la possibilità di viaggiare. Come ci dovremo comportare nei prossimi mesi in questi termini? Parliamo di come gli aeroporti stanno affrontando questo periodo con Sergio Colella, Presidente Europa di SITA, Air transport communications and information technology. Sentiamo anche il punto di vista degli albergatori con Corrado Neyroz, proprietario dell'hotel Hermitage di Cervinia.

Il Covid-19 ha messo a dura prova il comparto Moda: come è possibile uscire da questo periodo di crisi del settore? Ne parliamo con Raffaello Napoleone, Amministratore delegato di PITTI IMMAGINE, e lo stilista Brunello Cucinelli.

l giro del mondo in 7300 giorni. Ci ha messo un po’ di più del protagonista del romanzo di Jules Verne, ma Mauro Boerchio di viaggi ne ha fatti parecchi. Una valigia sempre pronta e la voglia di custodire quei pali, perché se è vero che un portiere non deve mai allontanarsi dalla sua porta, […]

Take Home Reading is a new short-form audio series for readers and writers – shining a spotlight on Australian writers with recently released books. In each instalment, you'll be introduced to a writer, learn a little about what they've been reading lately, and hear a short reading from their latest work. In this episode we're talking to Rawah Arja about her debut young adult novel The F Team, a funny and authentic story about what it means to grow up in Australia today. ‘I always say to the kids that I teach, and the kids that I mentor in schools, I never want to be in a room where everybody looks and sounds like me. I believe growth and learning in life is about mixing with people that are different to you... I think everybody has the right to tell their own story. For a long time in publishing, I got used to being comfortable with the back of the line. And I thought that was where I should be... I should be happy that at least I'm even in the line. And then you grow up and you realise that no, I have every right to be at the front of the line, because my story is just as amazing as everybody else's.' The F Team is out now through Giramondo.

"After I’d finished my rapid-fire history of self-justification he paused and then said, deadpan and rural-Australian-slow: 'Right. Ok. So how is that all working out for you?'" On Drugs (Giramondo Publishing, 2019) explores Australian philosopher Chris Fleming’s experience of addiction, which begins when he is a student at the University of Sydney and escalates into a life-threatening compulsion. In a memoir by turns insightful and outlandish, Fleming combines meticulous observation with a keen sense of the absurdity of his actions. He describes the intricacies of drug use and acquisition, the impact of drugs on the intellect and emotions, and the chaos that emerges as his tightly managed existence unravels into hospitalisations, arrests and family breakdown. His account is accompanied by searching reflections on his childhood, during which he developed acute obsessive compulsive disorder and became fixated on the rituals of martial arts, music-making and bodybuilding. In confronting the pathos and comedy of his drug use in Sydney, On Drugs also opens out into meditations on the self and its deceptions, religion, masculinity, mental illness, and the tortuous path to recovery. On Drugs is a uniquely Australian experience of a universal quest for oblivion. Dr Matthew Thompson is a literary journalism specialist recently with the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia but now based in the USA. Dr Thompson has a special focus on the conflict areas of the Sulu archipelago and Mindanao in the southern Philippines. He is the author of MAYHEM, Running With The Blood God, and My Colombian Death.

Messa in voce di Lilli Fois C'era una volta una povera donna, che aveva un figlio; questo figlio aveva tanta voglia di girare il mondo e la madre gli disse: — Come farai? Noi non abbiamo denaro, che tu possa portare con te —. Disse il figlio: — Me la caverò. Dirò sempre: «Non molto, non molto, non molto ». Girò il mondo per qualche tempo e diceva sempre: — Non molto; non molto, non molto —. Trovò un gruppo di pescatori e disse: - Dio vi assista! non molto; non molto, non molto! Perché dici «non molto », mascalzone? — E quando tirarono le reti, non ci avevano preso molto pesce. Allora lo bastonarono e dissero: — Non hai mai visto come si fa a trebbiare? — Cosa devo dire allora? — domandò il ragazzo. — Devi dire: « Piglia tanto! piglia tanto! » [...]

The Seizure crew does love the written word, but we’re also a talkative bunch. So we’re sitting down with our favourite creative folks to get the lowdown on what they’re up to, what they think, and what they’re currently loving. For this Seizure Session, Alice Grundy and Fiona Dunne sat down with Austrlalia's own zine-queen Vanessa Berry to talk about her latest book Ninety9. Between the biscuit-eating and howling sirens, you’ll hear how Ninety9 went from an idea, to zine, to book-length memoir and the creative process of putting it together. You’ll also hear about those angst-ridden teenage years, the magic of mixtapes and the importance of the local supermarket. And if that’s not enough, you’ll hear about Vanessa Berry’s other projects, documenting public spaces in Sydney, libraries, and of course–Vinnies. So un-tangle those headphones, it’s time for a trip back to the 90s.

Sono passati quarant’anni da quel viaggio partito da Londra su un minivan e dalla pubblicazione della loro prima guida. «Che strada avete fatto per arrivare in India dall’Afghanistan? Non avete preso malattie? Come hanno fatto due ragazzi rimasti con ventisette centesimi in tasca a viaggiare ancora per sei mesi?» sono le domande che hanno spinto Tony e Maureen Wheeler a fondare la Lonely Planet. In un dialogo con Gabriele Romagnoli, viaggiatore e osservatore attento delle diverse culture, Tony Wheeler racconterà la sua storia di giramondo instancabile e quella della guida che ha rivoluzionato il concetto stesso di guida e di viaggio, di come sia diventato, da ventenne senza soldi ma con la passione dell’esplorazione, proprietario di una società miliardaria, sempre con la stessa curiosità e amore: «tutto quello che devi fare è decidere di partire e la cosa più difficile è fatta. Quindi parti». Traduzione Marina Astrologo
