Actor and author Tasma Walton was enjoying her big break on TV show Blue Heelers in the 1990s in Melbourne when a transformative visit from her grandmother launched her in a new direction.Boonwurrung/Bunurong woman, Tasma grew up in windy Geraldton, in Western Australia in the 1970s, hearing stories from her grandmother about baby whales and women who lived in kelp forests. These stories always featured a bay and very cold water — neither of which were in Geraldton.Many years later, while Tasma was filming Blue Heelers and living in St Kilda in Melbourne, her grandmother came to stay, and the stories she had told Tasma over and over again started to make sense.Except for one tale that had been sanitised for children's ears — a supposed love story between Tasma's great-great-great grandmother, Nannertgarrook, and a sealer man.As an adult, Tasma heard her calling and started to research the truth of what had happened to Nannertgarrook, generations ago.Further informationIf you need help, you can call the National domestic family and sexual violence counselling service on 1800-RESPECT — 1800 737 732.I Am Nannertgarrook is published by Simon & Schuster Bundyi.Tasma was named joint winner, with Robbie Arnott, of the $100,000 ARA Historical Novel Prize for 2025.Watch Reckless on SBS from Wednesday 12 November on SBS, NITV, and SBS ON DEMAND.This episode of Conversations was produced by Alice Moldovan.

Joel landed an Aussie radio exclusive with Dorit Kemsley while she was in Melbourne for Crown Oak’s Day. She raved about Melbourne, Crown’s spa (best massage in 20 years) and described Aussie fashion as “effortlessly chic” while firmly ruling out culottes and Birkenstocks. Dorit shared how she’s archiving designer pieces for her daughter Phoenix, her famously exact drink orders, and reflected on last season of Housewives as “authentic chess.” She also teased her upcoming book (April 7), revealed she was a breakdancer back in the day, and dished on her love of music, running late, and keeping it glam.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gordon Ramsey’s dishing out restaurant warnings – avoid “famous” menus, skip overstuffed burgers, and maybe even question your starter. Dorit Kemsley landed in Melbourne and gave us an Aussie radio exclusive, revealing her epic Vic Beckham fits, her ultra-specific cocktail order (“cemetery of carcasses”) and trying (sort of) an Aussie accent on the barbie. Jelly Roll nearly got treated like a criminal at Sydney Louis Vuitton. In The Glossys, Sia hosted Kathy Griffin’s birthday with a cheeky bathroom-adjacent seating plan, Meghan Markle’s back in acting, Khloé is over the Skims thong drama, and NSYNC can’t agree on their movie.

Subscribe to LMSU's Patreon for a sector plan BoCo bonanza!  All aboard folks! Team LMSU is continuing our BoCo odyssey, adventuring through each of the six sector decarbonisation plans. AND we're bringing friends! That's right, we're calling in even nerdier reinforcements and experts to join us as we venture on. This week, we'll be joined by sometime co-host Alison Reeve from the Grattan Institute to unpack the Industry sector plan. And if somehow that isn't temptation enough for you crazy climate cats, the only way you'll see evidence of Luke, Tennant and Frankie's cosplay efforts at our recent Chaos Trivia event is by subscribing, so hop to it!—With COP30 in Belem, Brazil only days away, your intrepid hosts dive into recent remarks from UN Secretary General, António Guterres, widely reported as ‘the world has missed 1.5C', the reality being much more nuanced commentary from this climate champion as he enters his final year as Secretary General. Undoubtedly, it feels like a threshold moment as he acknowledges the world has breached 1.5C. We are now in the realm of overshoot, but the longer term of objective of stabilising temperature increases to 1.5C is still possible - keeping 1.5 alive - but only if we redouble efforts to focus on decarbonisation here and now, and flags the need to ramp up efforts on negative emissions. Significant remarks and food for thought on the real and difficult choices ahead!Our main courseIs it 1965 or is what's old new once again folks? Your intrepid hosts wade into the technical, controversial, futuristic yet bafflingly bootstrapped proposition that is geoengineering - shooting stuff into the sky and blocking out some sunlight, cooling the earth's surface. What could possibly go wrong?! Well, this paper, ‘Engineering and logistical concerns add practical limitations to stratospheric aerosol injection strategies' published in Nature and authored by Miranda Hack, V. Faye McNeill, Dan Steingart and Gernot Wagner, has some thoughts! Engineering challenges? Yes! Cost? What better use of diamond dust could there be! Governance issues? A few! What is incredibly clear from reading this paper is that there are no easy decisions when it comes to the need to consider negative emissions technologies or other novel ways of moderating temperature increases. Could it be that on closer inquiry, we should just focus on getting on with decarbonising, or is more research required?One more thingsTennant's One More Thing is: more ranting about data centres! Tennant has questions about the ultimate viability of the eyewatering numbers of speculative capacity in new data centre growth, as well as the equally worrying implications for viability coal closures if much of this does come to pass. Bubble or not, we'll find out soon enough!Frankie's One More Thing is: a massive shout out and thanks to 150 fabulous folk that fronted up to Chaos Trivia last week in Melbourne, including ultimate winners, No One Likes A Gentailer. Props to our co-hosts Currently Speaking, our MC extraordinaire Mark Spencer and The NEMChat Singers who added colour, movement and grooves to the chaos! With all proceeds going to the brilliant First Nations Clean Energy Network there was much to love.  Luke's One More Thing is: a definitely-not-resentful readout of the paper he really wanted us to read this episode, IRENA's ‘Delivering on the UAE Consensus: Tracking progress toward tripling renewable energy capacity and doubling energy efficiency by 2030.' TL;DR is we're going gangbusters on solar but woeful progress on energy efficiency. More to do!And that's it for now, Summerupperers.

How good is this idea of bringing Michelin to New Zealand in the hope that some of our restaurants will get some stars awarded? Now, this is not free. We have to pay for it and we have to pay actually quite a lot of money for it. It's costing Tourism New Zealand nearly six and a half million dollars, and that's just for the first three years. And I don't know how much you have to pay after that. But take a look at what the Aussies did when they looked at this last year. It was going to cost them $4 million for the first year, $5 million for the second year, $7.5 million for the next year, and then basically for a few years thereafter, something like another three years, it was going to cost them another $7.5 million. By my calculations, in the space of five or six years, they were going to have to fork out to Michelin about $40 million. Aussies looked at it, said, nah, but we've said yes, and I reckon we are doing the right thing. This is grown-up, first world tourism. I think about the trip that I just did last weekend to Melbourne with a couple of girlfriends. Food was a huge part of it. The one of us who was doing the bookings found the good places to eat. They found the places that everybody in Melbourne is talking about, got us into those places, lunch and dinner. This is what tourists do. They come to a city for an event, then they tag on great food, find all the great restaurants and go try them out. And here in New Zealand, we are really good at food. The entire time that I was in Melbourne, I kept thinking that for all the raving that people do about Melbournian eateries, actually in New Zealand, you can get just as good, if not, in my opinion, a whole lot better. And actually, paying $6 million for this is not really all that much. When you think about what gets spent on tourism campaigns that you can never actually be sure really work. Back in April, the government pumped twice as much as this, $13 and a half million into advertising New Zealand to Aussies. What do you get for that? I mean, you get maybe a guess that some Aussie tourists came here as a result. For this money that we're giving to Michelin, you get actual stars potentially. You get international prestige. You get the sense for tourists that they have landed in a first world city eating international great food. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Over in Australia, former drug kingpin Tony Mokbel managed to avoid additional time in prison over a drug trafficking conviction. Mokbel, one of the key figures in Melbourne's gangland war, was sentenced to 30 years' jail after pleading guilty to serious drug-related offences in 2012. Australian correspondent Murray Olds says reports have surfaced accusing his lawyer of corruption, prompting an additional investigation.

PLEASE BE ADVISED: This story contains subject matter that some may find upsetting. Listener discretion is advised.In the sweltering bayous of southern Louisiana, Dwight “Jerome” Bergeron grew up hard. As a boy, he trapped raccoons, muskrats, and nutria for pocket money, learning survival before he ever learned opportunity. He left school in the 11th grade, trained in plumbing at Vo-Tech, and once dreamed of repairing helicopters in the Army, a dream that died when his recruiter told him his certificate wasn't enough.Instead, Dwight built a life for himself and his children on the bayou. But in the early 1990s, everything changed. His kids were removed from his home and placed with adoptive parents. Soon after, accusations surfaced, claims that Dwight had harmed the very children he loved. There was no physical evidence. Medical exams were inconclusive. But the state had some powerful words from his own children, testimony that was enough to secure his conviction.Dwight was sentenced to life, while his partner Angela, under intense pressure from prosecutors, took a plea deal she said was forced upon her. Both went to prison.Now, decades later, the children, now adults, have spoken. In sworn statements and letters, they insist their father never harmed them, that they were manipulated as kids, and that their testimony was built on lies told to keep them from returning home.Dwight has spent his life behind bars maintaining his innocence, while his children fight to clear his name.Echoes from the Bayou is the story of a man condemned on the word of children, the family torn apart, and the haunting possibility that Louisiana's justice system got it wrong.One Minute Remaining LIVE in Melbourne get your tix now EARLY AND AD FREE ACCESS: for as little as $1.69 a week!Apple + HERE Patreon and find us on Facebook here.

On the morning of August 3rd, 1998, Melbourne businessman John Furlan followed his usual routine: coffee, newspaper, and off to work at his Coburg auto salvage yard. But at 8:45 AM, his white Subaru Liberty exploded on Lorenson Street, a blast so powerful it was felt five kilometres away. Windows shattered, cars burned, yet Furlan was the only fatality. Police soon confirmed it wasn’t a gas explosion... it was a car bomb. But who planted it, and why? Crime journalist Adam Shand speaks about the unsolved car bombing of John Furlan, its links to Melbourne’s underworld, and whether his death foreshadowed the Gangland Wars that gripped Victoria for years to come.

In this episode of The New Rules Podcast, Adrian and Bri sit down with one of their favorite thinkers, Mark Sayers, pastor of Red Church in Melbourne and author of A Non-anxious Presence and Reappearing Church. Known for his insights on faith, culture, and leadership, Mark unpacks what it means to live and lead faithfully in a world defined by uncertainty, disinformation, and rapid technological change. Together, they explore: How AI and cultural instability are reshaping leadership. The hidden spiritual hunger emerging beneath global chaos. The loss of truth, the rise of tribalism, and what authentic hope looks like now. Why the next era of leadership requires depth, humility, and integrity rather than platforms. This is a timely and deeply grounded conversation about faith, formation, and the kind of leadership the future desperately needs.

I learned a lot in this conversation with Alison Mau about her life and journey and what has led to the setting up of Tika.  Curiousity guided the questions and we talk about a lot of things starting with her childhood, growing up in Melbourne, experiences at primary school that shaped her and led to a resilient attitude, the special bond she feels with horses and why that is so, becoming a journalist back in the analogue days before lots of computers or dictaphons, and her presenting on TV and how she ended up in New Zealand.  Then we focus in on the setting up of Tika which is a charity that empowers people to come forward to report past sexual harm and how it works, what it means and the future potential.   And an encouragment for us all: "Happiness for me is not in money, possessions or anything like that - it is, how can I be useful..."

In this episode of The Property Nerds, host Arjun Paliwal from InvestorKit speaks with Tim Biason, an Australian expat in Dubai, about navigating the challenges of investing in property back home. Tim, who moved to Dubai to advance his aviation career, has continued to grow his property portfolio while living overseas. Having already owned a couple of investment properties in Australia, he faced the challenges of managing overseas investments until he enlisted the help of a buyer's agent to provide local expertise and support. The agent helped him navigate market trends, financing, and legal processes, turning complex decisions into informed strategies. Leveraging his tax-free earnings in Dubai and his knowledge of the Australian market, Tim was able to expand and diversify his investments effectively. His properties, first in Blacktown and more recently in Melbourne, have appreciated, demonstrating how strategic planning and a coordinated team can make remote property investment both feasible and profitable for expats.

This week, the boys head back to Roman Polanski-ville for the third time to discuss the pivotal 1965 film “Repulsion”. This “dangerous” film is Polanski's first English-language movie, shot in London during the peak of the French New Wave (Polanski is a Polish-French filmmaker). “Repulsion” offers indie-film groundedness, a gritty reality, noir-inspired neorealism, and an upheaval of social values of the time- sexual liberation, classism, irony, and iconoclasm. Also, we all had different levels of enjoyment, which led to one of our finest broad conversations!

“Prospector” is a special documentary telling the incredible story of Paddy Hannan from Gorteen near Quin, Co Clare. In the early 1860s, Paddy left Clare for the goldfields of Australia and New Zealand. In 1893, he and two friends made a discovery that sparked one of the great Western Australian Gold Rushes. That find, in the scorching Australian outback, ultimately led to the founding of the city of Kalgoorlie where the main thoroughfare is named Hannan Street. This programme has been produced to mark the 100th anniversary of Paddy Hannan's death in Melbourne on November 4th 1925. “Prospector” is the story of Paddy Hannan and has been produced by Pat Flynn and was recorded in Clare and Kalgoorlie-Boulder, WA. Special thanks to: Timothy Moore, Local History and Archives Officer City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder; Tim Cudini, President Eastern Goldfields Historical Society, Kalgoorlie-Boulder; Annette Watt, Manager, Hannan's North Tourist Mine, Kalgoorlie-Boulder; Michael Talty, Executive Librarian at the Clare Local Studies Centre in Ennis, Co Clare; Mary Cahill, former Keeper of Irish Antiquities at the National Museum of Ireland and Larry Brennan, Clare Roots Society, Ennis.

PLEASE BE ADVISED: This story contains subject matter that some may find upsetting. Listener discretion is advised.In the sweltering bayous of southern Louisiana, Dwight “Jerome” Bergeron grew up hard. As a boy, he trapped raccoons, muskrats, and nutria for pocket money, learning survival before he ever learned opportunity. He left school in the 11th grade, trained in plumbing at Vo-Tech, and once dreamed of repairing helicopters in the Army, a dream that died when his recruiter told him his certificate wasn't enough.Instead, Dwight built a life for himself and his children on the bayou. But in the early 1990s, everything changed. His kids were removed from his home and placed with adoptive parents. Soon after, accusations surfaced, claims that Dwight had harmed the very children he loved. There was no physical evidence. Medical exams were inconclusive. But the state had some powerful words from his own children, testimony that was enough to secure his conviction.Dwight was sentenced to life, while his partner Angela, under intense pressure from prosecutors, took a plea deal she said was forced upon her. Both went to prison.Now, decades later, the children, now adults, have spoken. In sworn statements and letters, they insist their father never harmed them, that they were manipulated as kids, and that their testimony was built on lies told to keep them from returning home.Dwight has spent his life behind bars maintaining his innocence, while his children fight to clear his name.Echoes from the Bayou is the story of a man condemned on the word of children, the family torn apart, and the haunting possibility that Louisiana's justice system got it wrong.One Minute Remaining LIVE in Melbourne get your tix now EARLY AND AD FREE ACCESS: for as little as $1.69 a week!Apple + HERE Patreon and find us on Facebook here.

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to John Anderson about transitioning from politics to public commentary; the rise of long-form media and distrust in mainstream news; why young people seek deeper conversations; the decline of reason-based debate in Western democracies; how progressive voices avoid open discussion and rely on emotional arguments over facts; Australia's cultural complacency and erosion of Western values; and the danger of avoiding hard choices for future generations; the fading Crocodile Dundee spirit in Australia; how complacency and cultural comfort have eroded resilience; Australia's historical roots in authority versus America's experiment in freedom; young men searching for meaning amid declining mental health; the impact of Jordan Peterson on restoring responsibility and masculinity; how victimhood culture spread across the West; mainstream media decline and the rise of podcasts like Joe Rogan; the importance of truth, trust, and long-form conversation in the face of AI and media collapse; Australia's fading national identity; Melbourne feeling like a globalized "blue city" disconnected from traditional Australian culture; rising immigration reshaping demographics; concerns about importing ideologies hostile to Western values; radical Islam and pro-Hamas demonstrations after October 7; the danger of cultural complacency and forgetting founding principles; how democracy requires shared moral foundations, assimilation, and leadership to avoid national decline; and much more.
