Once considered one of the most powerful politicians in Australia, Arthur Sinodinos' (AO) career well and truly speaks for itself. From being one of former Prime Minister John Howard's closest advisors, to taking on the role of Ambassador to the United States during both the Trump and Biden administrations, Arthur is a Greek-Australian with rare, and incredible insights into the world of domestic and international politics and diplomacy. Arthur sits down with Tom and Nick for a wide-ranging discussion that covers gun-control in both the USA and Australia, his time in Parliament, as well as a story on Donald Trump's reaction to meeting Arthur's wife in the Oval Office. But while Arthur's time in politics has ended, his protege, Fiona Douskou's is just beginning. Fiona joins the conversation as she seeks election at the next Austalian Federal Election to the Seat of Barton.

Hello, and welcome to the latest episode of the Cinema Australia Podcast. My name is Matthew Eeles. In this episode, I'm joined by Danielle Stamoulos, the writer and lead actor of the impressive new short film, Gorgo. Regular listeners will notice that this Podcast episode is shorter than usual as it was originally recorded for my radio show on 2RRR. Danielle is an AACTA-winning Greek-Australian filmmaker, actor, and writer working across film, TV, and theatre. Her short film GORGO, which she created, wrote, and starred in, won the 2025 AACTA Award for Best Australian Short Film. It also screened at major festivals, including Santa Barbara, Flickerfest (winning Best Original Music), St Kilda, Newport Beach, and Rhode Island. Danielle also won Best Performance at the recent 2025 Stellar Film Festival. Inspired by Greek ‘promised brides' & Ovid's Medusa myth, Gorgo is a dramatic short film that tells the story of a Greek bride's cross-continental journey to marry a man she has never met. Matchmade by her best friend Athina, with promises of a new future in a distant land, Medousa finds herself arriving in Australia to a strange home—and a cold welcome. Thrust into her new marriage, she soon discovers a monstrous secret that threatens to tear apart the best friends' vow of sisterhood. I really hope you get to see the incredibly moving short film at some stage. Keep an eye on cinemaaustralia.com.au and we will try to keep you as up to date as possible. Anyway… enjoy.

Click here to learn more about The Handwritten Heritage Cookbook Starter Kit Welcome and Happy Thanksgiving!!! This is a very special episode of The Storied Recipe podcast! Rather than diving deep into one story, we're diving deep into one holiday - telling the story of Thanksgiving from the perspective of almost 30 families. I want to personally thank every single contributor for taking their time to make this episode for us. These vignettes, sometimes funny, often poignant, and so very relatable have cheered my Thanksgiving season and helped me slow down and remember, reflect, and above all choose gratitude this season. In fact, my original plan was to cram this episode in, almost as a bonus or extra episode, but the more I listened to your stories, the more I realized I wanted to lengthen this Thanksgiving season. We begin, surprisingly enough, not with an American, but with a Greek-Australian who reminds us that far, far from being a national holiday belonging to one or two countries, Thanksgiving is an ancient tradition. Practicing gratitude is a tenant, teaching, and calling of every religion, it is, in fact, a need of the human heart. Listen to The Thanksgiving Episode Now!

If you know me, you know I'm a proud Greek Australian. My pride runs deep, shaped by my dad, who left Greece to build a better life here in Australia. The immigrant mentality he passed on has stayed with me and resonates with many Greeks and others whose families immigrated to Australia. And this is one of the things I value most about Australia, how we celebrate and embrace our multicultural roots, which is what this week's episode of The Mentor is all about.I had the pleasure of sitting down with Yannis Mallikourtis, the Consul General of Greece in Sydney. We shared our Greek backgrounds, discussed his role and life in public service, the challenges Greek Australians face, the importance of preserving the Greek culture and language, why so many first-generation arrivals find success here and much more.You can subscribe to the Mentored newsletter here: https://mentored.com.au/newsletter-sign-upJoin the Facebook Group.Follow Mark Bouris on Instagram, LinkedIn & YouTube.

World Champion boxer, George ‘Ferocious' Kambosos drops by The Distillery to talk to Tom and Nick as he prepares to mount a fresh assault on the boxing world to reclaim the lightweight World Championship. By his own admission, Kambosos has been quiet since losing his five belts to Devin Haney. But don't let the silence fool you. The proud Greek-Australian boxer has been lurking in the shadows, plotting and preparing for a return – and if his training videos on social media are anything to go by… beware the ‘Second Coming'. Kambosos dives deep into his Greek heritage and his connection to his Spartan roots, while also recounting in tiny detail, his now legendary fight with Teofimo Lopez, where he was crowned World Champion. From the build-up and the bad blood, to the victory, and the fallout, this is a story that's now etched in the hearts and minds of the Greek diaspora, which has fast-become folklore. But it's only the first part of the Kambosos story. The best is yet to come. Tune in to the episode to hear why.
