Like many of us, Benj Bailey-Webb has had his fair share of trials and tribulations over the past 5 or so years. The owner-builder of the now widely lauded permanent tiny house in Victoria's majestic Grampians region, Nook On The Hill, started off wanting to design and build a small footprint, sustainable home for himself and his then-partner, Holly. As the process played out, however, and also through a global pandemic, significant bushfires in the local region and his father being seriously ill, Benj's objectives evolved and changed and ultimately, the decision was reached to open the property up to guests. Benj's story is one that is resoundingly human and one that many of us in the short-term accommodation sector will fiercely identify with. It was such a pleasure chatting with him a few weeks ago and I'm sure you'll get a lot out of this episode today. A quick content warning too that this episode does include discussion of terminal cancer.

Shortly after my own trip to the Grampians and Araps, where I played briefly on Punks in the Gym, just to give it, as Ben Cossey would say, a tummy rub, I went back to the Blue Mountains where I met a bunch of Australian mega-crushers. One of those crushers was Andrea Hah. And because she was the first Australian woman to climb Punks in the Gym, and Arapiles had a big impact on her life, I really wanted to have her on the show.  Andrea is not only a mega-crusher and one of the most accomplished climbers in Australia. She's also a physio at Move Clinic, which she runs with her partner, Lee Cossey - also a mega-crusher. And she's a mom to a little BMX shredder. Basically, an all around badass.  So we talk Araps and Punks as well as other Australian history like her send of Ozymandias which was the first ground up in a day ascent of the route and her arch-nemesis climb, Lord of the Rings in Araps.  Andrea on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreahah/ Save Arapiles Climbing Petition: https://www.change.org/p/save-natimuk-stop-the-rock-climbing-ban-at-the-famous-mt-arapiles Save Arapiles Climbing Video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_bYfeWq_Nw   Our friends at Rab are excited to sponsor both full and partial scholarships to Ladies Weekend Out's events, making their educational programs more accessible than ever and helping to empower women in the outdoors.” Learn more here: https://www.ladiesweekendout.com/rab-equipment-scholarships   Check out our website for related episodes, resources and more!

Tonight, our blind-tasting duo explore uncharted wine, at least for the show. Shiraz is the most planted and #1 grape from Australia. Shiraz is the same grape and wine as Syrah, but for some reason, Australia and South Africa call it Shiraz. It is a big, bold, full-body wine with high levels of tannin and acid. Because of the tannins, it is normally oaked and is a great pair with red meats.In France, Syrah is a single variety wine from the northern Rhone Valley, and is popular in the southern Rhone where it is part of the GSM blend wines. GSM stands for Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvedre.Syrah is also a popular grape grown in the US, mostly in the State of Washington and California. Some of the most popular Shiraz regions of Australia include Barossa Valley, Eden Valley, Clare Valley, Heathcote, Hunter Valley, McLaren Vale, Yarra Valley, Grampians, and Adelaide Hills.While Syrah and Shiraz wines will have many similarities, they will also have some differences. Syrah wines from France, Chile and Washington (State) are more of a cooler climate wine. Australian Shiraz and California, Spain, Italy, and Argentina Syrah are warm-weather wines. Syrah from cooler climates will be lighter in body, with more earthiness and floral notes. Warm weather Syrah/Shiraz will be fruit forward full-body higher alcohol wines. Tonight, we taste: 2021 Yalumba Barossa Shiraz. I purchased this wine at Wall to Wall Wine for $19.99. It comes from the Barossa Valley, Australia. It is plump and fruity, with lucid aromas of black cherry, plum, mint and ground pepper. A full body gentle frame of spicy tannins frames everything, and a nice level of acidity helps wash it all down. Winery is Vegan and started in 1849. 2019 Greg Norman, Limestone Coast Shiraz, $15.50 at Wall to Wall Wine. This wine comes from Coonawarra, McClaren Flat, Argentina. Nose: Bright aromas of ripe black and blue fruits, spice notes. Palate: Medium to full-bodied. Cola, black cherry, mixed berry jam and cloves. Other notes: plum and cherry. Peppercorn, mint, oak. Firm structure and balanced acidity. Area is known for having poor well draining soils. 2022 Yellow Tail Shiraz purchased at Walmart for $5.99. Rich and smooth, with juicy red berries and hints of vanilla and spice. Hints of mocha. Bold and smooth. South Eastern Australia includes all of Victoria and parts of South Australia and New South Wales. Next week The wines we will taste include: 2022 Bourgonge – Maconaise – Macon Villages. This is a Burgundy white made from the Chardonnay grape. Purchased from Costco for $12.79. 2022 Porta 6 Red from Lisbon Region of Portugal. Purchased at Trader Joes for $4.99. 2022 Ruggero Di Bardo from Puglia, Italy. Purchased at Trader Joes for $9.99.

Robert Connolly on Why Force of Nature Was His Hardest Film Shoot Yet in This Interview

Robert Connolly is one of Australia's great modern directors, having exploded onto the film scene some twenty years ago with The Bank, which was nominated for Best Picture and Best Director at the AFI awards, which he swiftly followed up with an impressive body of work that includes Paper Planes, The Turning, Balibo, Blueback, and the 2021 adaptation of Jane Harper's best seller, The Dry.That film, which featured Eric Bana as Detective Aaron Falk, set the box office afire in 2021 alongside High Ground and Penguin Bloom, with the trio making Australian film history as the first time that three Aussie flicks topped the local box office. Given the success of The Dry, it made sense that Connolly and Bana would return to Jane Harper's Falk series with the second novel, Force of Nature. Where The Dry focused on a murder mystery in the middle of nowhere, Force of Nature takes Detective Falk to the Grampians to try and find missing business woman Alice (Anna Torv). Alice did not return with her colleagues (Deborra-Lee Furness, Robin McLeavy, Sisi Stringer, Lucy Ansell) after a hiking retreat, raising suspicion and concern. With heavy rains on the way, time is of the essence to find Alice before it's too late.While Force of Nature operates in the thriller genre, with Connolly harkening back to The Bank with a subplot about manipulative financial institutions, it is better approached as a character study of people under pressure. Falk's return to the Grampians sees him recalling his youth when his mother also went missing in the same area, and it's here that Force of Nature lingers into an examination of what family means in difficult times. Eric Bana has found a character he can comfortably slip into with Detective Aaron Falk, a figure who sits alongside Detective Jay Swan and Jack Irish as a compelling investigator getting to the bottom of a mystery. It helps that Bana is comfortably supported by a reliable cast, including the always great Anna Torv who owns the film, the welcome presence of Robin McLeavy who gives a subdued and powerful performance, and solid performances from newcomers Sisi Stringer and Lucy Ansell.Curiously, even though I've been interviewing Australian filmmakers for almost a decade now, this is the first time I've had a chat with Robert Connolly. I'd previously aimed to catch up with him on the media trail for The Dry or Blueback, but circumstances meant that this was our first time chatting. As I joined the Zoom meeting, Robert immediately noticed the vast array of blurays and DVDs that sit behind me, pointing out the Agnes Varda Criterion Collection. Our conversation starts there, and ferrets through different avenues of discussion, weaving in and out about Robert's work as a filmmaker, what it means to support emerging talent in the way he does as an executive producer with films like Alena Lodkina's Petrol, Sari Braithwaite's Because We Have Each Other, and Jub Clerc's Sweet As, before we settle on discussing why Force of Nature is the hardest shoot he's embarked on yet.Force of Nature launches in Australian cinemas from 8 February 2024, and if there's one reason to see it on the big screen, it's to become overwhelmed by Andrew Commis' immersive cinematography. No doubt if this one does well that we'll see Robert adapting the third and final Falk book, Exiles, down the line.If you like what we do here at The Curb, then make sure to listen to other interviews at TheCurb.com.au, and help keep The Curb independent by joining our Patreon from as little as $1 a month at Patreon.com/thecurbau.

Victorian winery Seppelt today is probably best known for its exquisite table wines.I'm talking about St Peters Shiraz from its home region of the Grampians, and chardonnay, riesling and pinot noir from the esteemed Drumborg Vineyard in the cooler climes of Henty.Perhaps lesser known to some of us is Seppelt's rich heritage in sparkling wines.In 2022, the company highlighted that pedigree with two new cuvees named in honour of Charles Pierlot, the Frenchman who in 1890 made Australia's first traditional method sparkling wines at Seppelt's Great Western winery.Pierlot also pioneered one of Australia's most unique wine styles, sparkling shiraz.Seppelt Show Sparkling remains the benchmark for this style today. And Seppelt winemaker Clare Dry argues it deserves to be consumed more broadly than the traditional occasion of Christmas time.In this special episode of Drinks Adventures, produced in partnership with Seppelt, I started by asking Clare about the story behind this unique wine.Later in this interview, you'll find out a little bit more about how sparkling shiraz is made, and we'll explore the new vintage, 2012 Show Sparkling, released this year.Click here to open episode in your podcast player.
