PHILOSOPHICAL HEART OF THE RESISTANCEVIVIAN HARRIS - CLIMATE ACTION NOW ACTIVIST AT WEEK 71 OF HER REMINDER TO BEGA AUTHORITIESJO DODDS -  BUSHFIRE SURVIVORS FOR CLIMATE ACTION /EMERGENCY LEADERS FOR CLIMATE ACTION.ROUNDTABLE A new relationship with the forest is emerging after fires worse than those in the Amazon spread the length of The Great Dividing range in 2019/2020. The Eden Monaro By election in July, polarised people into the old blame game about hazzard reduction. Some blamed greenies for not wanting any, others blamed loggers for creating hazzards with the debris and flammable new growth they leave behind.  At the Emergy Leaders for Climate Action Summit, Greg Mullins said "We need to stop being such control freaks and develop trust. Climate change is drying out the land and making everything worse." We need to put resources behind the  traditional knowledge holders without trying to control them. We hear from Dan Morgan who explains how cultural burns start slowly so the birds and insects can smell the smoke. Then he talks about learning to read the message from the indicator species . In the video you will see land he has helped protect near Tathra. When the major bushfire went through Tathra, the land that had been managed in the traditional way were not detroyed.See Dan in this ABC video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RM72NtXxyLs(link is external)https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-11-14/traditional-owners-predicted-bushfire-disaster/11700320(link is external)https://www.creativespirits.info/aboriginalculture/land/aboriginal-fire-management(link is external) Locals told me "Go to "Cafe Evolve" it's the centre of the resistance. Peter Haggar, the owner takes us on a deep dive into the philosophy behind a new relationship with the forest. We talked about the quote on their wall which said"When our worldview is nolonger compatible with our knowledge of the world, isn't it wiser to alter our worldview rather than altering the facts?"Peter talks about local people still in shock, living in tents, un sure how to make themselves safe in the future. He says they have had an existential shock and although many voted for the old solutions, many more are seeking something new. He was influenced by an Australian Philosopher Val Plumwood who wrote "Feminism and the mastery of nature"Peter Haggar sees pluralism as the way forward. So even for city people, any stand for the plurality  of gender, race or class is part of the same battle for the diversity of  nature. The cultural management of land involves learning about hunderds of bio regions and how to deal with them, so learning to read the land like this is urgent climate action. .https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Val_Plumwood(link is external) Vivian Harris was on week 71 of her her stand in front of Bega valley Council and before that the local MP under a Banner saying "CLIMATE ACTION NOW". She talks about the people who sit down to chat with her. Some are worried about their grand children, some are in denial of the science but all have been awed by the drought and bushfires. Despite her shyness she has learned courage from Greta Thunberg and the ripples from her non confrontational presence are felt in other communities like Geelong, where she connects via social media with people making a stand. Jo Dodds is famous for standing up to PM Turnbull after the Tathra Fires telling him Now is the very time we should be talking about climate change" She is now involved in taking the EPA to court with Bushfire survivors for Climate Action.https://www.facebook.com/bushfiresurvivors/(link is external)They want to work with Matt Keane to develop adequate policies around climate change to prevent worse disasters. She talks about the smoke related deaths and the psychological trauma of prolonged fire. As Co Chair of the NSW Roundtable on Emergency Leaders for climate action she also  sees the urgent need to restore year long forest management in Yuin Country and a new relationship with the forest.https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-07-30/fossil-fuel-industry-levy-should-pay-for-bushfire-impact-report/12503114(link is external)https://www.smh.com.au/national/firefighting-tactics-should-change-as-climate-warms-say-fire-chiefs-20200729-p55gom.html(link is external)

Today we're going to take a look at one of the greatest Australian brands: Monaro. Monaro isn't just a car—it's an icon. We've all heard the story of how Holden created the Monaro as an answer to Ford's Falcon GT, but there's more to it than that. It turns out that this iconic vehicle has been around for almost 50 years and is still going strong today with over 100,000 fans who love it just as much as the day they first saw one on the road. So why do people love Monaro so much? Well, we have some theories… First, let's talk about the history of this vehicle. It was first introduced in 1966 and was designed specifically for racing enthusiasts. In fact, it won every race it entered for three years straight! In this audio we explore a story about enthusiasts and why the Monaro is such an important Australian brand and why people love it so much.

Terry Campese Interview

S3 E8 Snooks La Vie (Paul Wimbles) is a South Australian born blues/soul/country vocalist and harmonica player who first began to play the harmonica after finding a brand new Hohner Marine band harmonica that was underneath a former partners bed. He began to teach himself how to play whilst sitting outside in his Monaro. He first started out playing on the local scene with a punk band called The Enemy, and switched to playing the blues after his work mate Rubes suggested that he give this genre a try. The pair started out playing together at work functions and it wasn't too long before they put together their first band The Deliverymen, who were later to become The Hiptones (after a few lineup changes.) Snooks had always been a fan of Cold Chisel, and after meeting their harmonica player David Blight at a David Blight and The Flyers gig, Snooks had a few lessons with him before deciding to concentrate on the more traditional blues sound that comes from playing by using the tongue blocking technique. Snooks La Vie acquired his moniker from his friend and music/work colleague Papa Rubes which started out as just a bit of fun and stuck amongst his peers for being known as an avid fan of New Orleans musician ‘Snooks Eaglin'. As former front man of The Hiptones, Snooks has enjoyed the success of awards such as a South Australian Music Award for best blues band/act in 1997, signed to a major label SONYBMG in 2006 and an APRA nomination for best ‘blues/roots' work in 2008. Snooks also took out South Australian Blues Vocalist of the Year for three consecutive years (2008, 2009, and 2010.) The Hiptones recorded their second album "Right Now" at Joe Camilleri's studio Woodstock studios with James Black producing the album. Snooks current bands are Romaldo's Groove, The Dirty Roots Band, and his new band Snooks La Vie's Blues All Star Revue. He also performs in duos with Nikko (Nick Kipridis) and Snooks, Courtney Robb and Snooks, and J J Fields (Sav Palaktsoglou) and Snooks La Vie. Music intro "Band It About" theme song, written and recorded by Catherine Lambert and Michael Bryant. Outro "Walter's Walk" which was released in February 2017 on the Nikko & Snooks album "Way Back Home". https://snookslavie.bandcamp.com/album/way-back-home-nikko-snooks Links: all of the BAND IT ABOUT - Podcast Series links can be located here: https://linktr.ee/banditaboutpodcastseries Snooks La Vie's links: https://www.facebook.com/SnooksLaVie/ https://www.facebook.com/The-Hiptones-29980268497/ https://www.courtneyrobbmusic.com/ https://www.facebook.com/NikkoandSnooks/ BAND IT ABOUT - Podcast Series Host/Creator Di Spillane #snookslavie #thehiptones #hohnerharmonicas #bluesharmonica #rootsmusic #bluesmusic #southaustralia #sonybmg #courtneyrobb #nickkipridis #jjfields #harmonica #mudmorganfield #musicinterviews #musicpodcast #realstories #realpeople #banditaboutpodcastseries #banditabout #dispillane #marinebandharmonica #southaustralianmusicians --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dianne-spillane/message

Member for Monaro, Nichole Overall joins Dave Stanley on Racing HQ.

Today on Beyond the Green Line, Shonelle Gleeson-Willey talks with regenerative agriculturist Dr. Charles Massy. Charles became an advocate for regenerative agriculture after the infamous four-year draught of the late 70's and early 80's, when he transformed his personal approach from conventional farming to regenerative holistic management of his property on the Monaro. He has now written three books, received an OAM, and maintained a chemical-free property for decades - one that boasts native grass in an area where surrounding farms have turned to dustbowls during recent droughts. We hear all about his life-altering decision to transition to regenerative farming, the keys to his success in the process of restoring his soil, and his PhD research on some of the catalysts and destabilizing events that cause regenerative farmers begin to adopt the approach and turn their landscapes around.Shonelle and Charles discuss the crucial topic of fertilizer, and how natural alternatives to chemical herbicides and pesticides - like worm juice and compost extract - can result in better nutrition and healthier soil.Dr. Charles Massy defines regenerative agriculture succinctly by saying, “it's working with biology and not against it.” He clarifies that every farmer's biggest asset is the land, even above their animals or crops, and reminds us all that there is indeed a way to successfully utilize natural soil and graze animals in a sustainable and healthy way. He asserts that nature's self-organizing processes are far superior to our simplified, chemical-driven modern approach. By maximizing solar energy, protecting soil health, tending to the water cycle, ensuring biodiversity, and refraining from interfering nature's timing, humans can become better stewards of land while harvesting more nutritious crops.Charles explains that during the scientific revolution, humanity shifted to a “mechanical mind,” and distanced ourselves from nature. The combination of that more arrogant mindset with the invention of chemical fertilizers, big farming machinery, and motive for profit after World War II is what created the modern human ecosystem of farming in the form it exists today.But, now that we're more aware than ever of our climate and soil's vulnerable state, a swing back to regenerative agriculture would have a huge positive impact on the planet as well as human health. Charles skillfully teaches us about the biology and carbon impact of different approaches to farming, and casts vision from where we can, and must, go from here.

We're talking to Nathan Pretty this week on the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Repco. In Part 2, Nathan talks about racing for three different factory Holden teams in 2002, shares stories about racing the Garry Rogers Motorsport-built Nations Cup Holden Monaro 427C and his little mishap during the Bathurst 24 Hour, and racing with Peter Brock as a teammate both in rallying and circuit racing. He also talks about his loyalty to Holden – and the opportunities to race a Ford that he turned down – and what hampered him in his one shot at a full time V8 Supercars drive. Nathan also chats about his 2006 Development Series and the comments that led him to copping a massive pull-through over the phone from Larry Perkins, his final years in V8 Supercars and his years in V8 Utes – and chats about his ‘good friend' Randy Corners. He also tackles your National Motor Racing Museum Couch Racer Questions and our V8 Sleuth Top 10 Shootout.V8 Sleuth Superstore: https://superstore.v8sleuth.com.au/

This week we sit down with Silvio Barbisan, an automotive enthusiast and proud member of the Monaro Car Club. Silvio discusses what fuels his passion for muscle cars, especially the iconic Holden Monaro. Silvio currently owns 10 Holden and Monaro vehicles, a collection that has evolved over many years. His interest in cars started at a young age and grew into a lifelong hobby and community. Silvio talks about his anger and disappointment when Holden stopped producing cars in Australia. For enthusiasts like Silvio, certain car brands become deeply connected to memories and identity. Silvio highlights some of his favourite Monaro models, including his HG GTS Monaro. For Silvio, muscle cars represent power, performance, and nostalgia. He provides advice for burgeoning car enthusiasts and what to consider when buying a classic car. Silvio's story shows that being an automotive enthusiast is about more than just vehicles - it's about community, shared interests, and nostalgia. His passion for Australian muscle cars, especially the Monaro, runs deep and has persisted for decades. Overall, Silvio gives us insight into what fuels a lifelong enthusiast's dedication to a brand and model.

There is an old adage about motor racing. “Race on Sunday; Sell on Monday”. This was one of those passionate mantras that seem to motivate Holden and Ford during the glory years of the long-distance production car racing at Bathurst in the late 60s and most of the 70s. Holden kept at it for years after that more than Ford. Fred Brain is a classic example of someone who had a close association with Holden arising out of their racing at Bathurst. Fred grew up on a farm near Wagga and they did not get a television till 1969. He watched his first Bathurst race that year, won by Colin Bond and Tony Roberts in a Holden Monaro GTS 350. Subsequently he bought a genuine GTS 350 Monaro which he still has. He baught a second Monaro that he now races in the historic category. You can hear Fred reminisce about the life and times of his cars at: Some of the things Fred mentions are as follows: He took his genuine GTS350 off the road and parked it in a shed at the farm in the late 80s to restore in the near future. The restoration is going strong (if very slowly!!). He entered his racing Monaro In the East Coast classic (an attempt to get a Targa Tasmania going in NSW). I was his navigator. When we went through Oberon we were approach by a Catholic priest who was a Holden fan so he blessed the car. Lucky he wasn't a Ford fan or he would have done an exorcism. A young boy approaches the car at one stop and said how surprised he was to see the car as he ahad not seen one before. Fred noted that it was built before he was born. The young lad said “But I am 15 years old!”. The car at that stage was at least 30 years old. We also approached by a lady who was well into her middle age years, who was wearing a Monaro T-Shirt that she had had since she was a young girl. To her credit it still fitted although it was being stretched a little. She had loved Monaros from the beginning and still did to this day. A passion for the brand, especially when racing, does not however, guarantee continual sales. Fred's first regular car was a Toyota Corona and then he rally and Raced a Datsun 1600. He has owned a series of cars including a Valiant Pacer and a Ford station wagon (used as a tow car). His emotional attachment to Holden Monaros will help keep the history alive but he has little feeling for the American owned company that has decided to leave our market.

Episode 1 gives you a look into our tastes and opinions on fun and classic vehicles. Instead of the boring old, "what's your favourite car," or "what's the fastest/most expensive _______," we have picked some categories that are a bit different!  The categories are:a utilitarian vehicle;an affordable classic; and old skool performance.You get to choose a car, a bike or a truck to satisfy the three choices. However, once you've used up one choice for one category you cannot reuse it for another category!  Our choices may be a bit odd, but welcome to The Clutch Basket Podcast!
