In episode 50 of the Mindful Life Podcast, I share my thoughts, feelings and ramblings of my current scattered mindset on Day 1 of the return to Covid-19 Stage 3 Restrictions here in Metropolitan Melbourne. I, like my fellow Melbournians are feeling all the feels. Frustrated, disappointed, anxious and sad. The media is saying we are surrounded by a ring of steal to ensure none of us leave the "Covid Capital" for the next 6wks. Other states are saying we are letting the country down. Needless to say, this is adding to our feelings of disappointment. For the next 40 odd days we are again only allowed to leave our homes for essentials, we must work and study at home, all in an effort to again flatten the curve. All of this concerns me immensely. I worry for people's mental health. I fear that this is more than some people can take. And of course, I know going into lockdown is essential to keep us all safe from the virus, but sometimes home isn't a safe place and being isolated from others is detrimental to mental health Are we sacrificing mental health to save our physical health?

I love finding anglers who are doing things that challenge the common beliefs. For Victorians who fish Port Phillip Bay, snapper have always been a spring and summer option. But recently a handful of knowledgeable anglers have proven that snapper are a year-round option in the bay. Paul Malov is a Melbourne resident, successful tournament bream angler and kayak fishing enthusiast. He's one of that small group of anglers who are tapping into the Port Phillip bay winter snapper opportunity. In this episode Paul lifts the lid on a few myths, explaining the lures, locations and techniques that give him consistent results on the local snapper population.  Full episode show notes are available at: https://doclures.com/port-phillip-bay-winter-snapper-paul-malov/ 

On this week's episode I chat to Sam Hibbins, the Greens Member for Prahran (my neighbourhood) about the Green's commitment to delivering Melbourne Metro 2 and platforms for Melbourne Metro 1 at South Yarra. We also discuss the first stage of works to improve access, egress and overall circulation at South Yarra Station, which Sam applauds as a good start but argues more can and should be done.

On today's show we spoke to Raelene Isbester and Roshelle Fong about their upcoming fringe festival shows, Paul Podjonovic about the artifacts being uncovered during the Melbourne Metro build, and Tracy Lister about her time living and working in Vietnam.

Laury's back this week and we chat about a range of topics - a new application on Lygon Street in Brunswick East, how Melbourne Airport Rail Link and Melbourne Metro 2 should have a coordinated planning response and the upcoming opening of Clayton's new station.

Faith and Val are joined in the studio this morning by Jonathan Nolan of Melbourne BUG and Revitalise Sydney Road. We kick off the show by sharing our respective bicycle moments before taking a look at local news, including the sad news of another cyclist death at Macedon on the weekend. Conflicted cyclists across Australia woke to the news that the Australian Magpie has been named The Guardian's Bird of the Year, and transport drove Australia's greenhouse gas emissions to their highest point ever. Jonathan takes though some of the many projects around Melbourne that are having an impact on riders, their routes and the potential to encourage new riders to take up using their bike for transport including; the completion of the separated bike lane on Albert St, the development of separated lanes at Southbank and Moray St Sth Melbourne, and the inadequate plans for bike infrastructure around new Melbourne Metro Tunnels at CBD North, Arden and Parkville. With entire roads being redveloped this is the perfect opportunity to build sparated lanes that can cope with increased growth in cyclist nubers yet Melbourne Metro are proposing sub-standard painted lanes that don't meet current VicRoads guidelines. You can have your say on the proposed plans here before Friday December 15th. 

The Raising Our Voices talk to Evan Tattersall from Melbourne Metro about accessibility in the CBD.
