While Treasurer Jim Chalmers' budget speech emphasised cost of living relief, this did not extend to people living below the poverty line on social security payments. Significant changes to limit the growth of the National Disability Insurance Scheme were marketed as a considered choice to claw back government revenue, but disability advocates argue that these restrictions will have serious implications for disabled peoples' quality of life and access to supports. Register for Antipoverty Centre's post-budget event next Tuesday 19 May here.// We listened to speeches from the Homeless Persons Union of Victoria's gathering outside Melbourne Town Hall this past Tuesday to amplify community opposition to the City of Melbourne's plan to expand its violent and exclusionary security patrols in the next financial year. In this segment, we first hear Rory of Vixen Workers talking about anti-homelessness measures in the City of Port Phillip and their impact on street-based sex workers. We then hear from Shifra of Footscray Community Response discussing the City of Maribyrnong's disingenuous announcement of the end of its own security patrols after a sustained community campaign, only to reveal that this will be replaced by a significantly increased local police presence in the area.// Yolanda Robson, Director of Young Workers Centre joined us following their landmark campaign in collaboration with YouthLaw, that brought an end to junior pay rates for workers aged 18-20 in the retail, fast food, and pharmacy sectors. This phase out to full adult pay rates for these workers over four years will begin this year December 2026. We also discussed the ongoing fight to protect young people and young workers, following this week's budget announcement.// Last week, the High court dismissed a legal challenge brought against the Albanese Government in 2025 contesting the right to permanently exile refugees and stateless people to Nauru. To unpack the details of the Albanese government's arrangement with Nauru and the High Court decision we were joined by Human Rights Law Centre Associate Legal Director Josephine Langbien.//Shirley, co-convenor of No AUKUS Victoria and the Australian Anti-AUKUS Coalition Working Group, joined us to discuss updates in the campaign against the trilateral AUKUS security partnership, including the establishment this year of an Australian Federal Police command tasked with targeting anti-AUKUS protests. Shirley will also talk about AUKUS-related expenditure in the 2026-27 federal budget, and about an upcoming webinar organised by the Australian Anti-AUKUS Coalition on Wednesday the 20th of May at 6:30PM.

Episode #222: River Walking (Song starts at 4.22) This song is the title track of the album by the same name, by Paul Dredge and myself. It was fun looking back to see how 'River Walking' came together. Although it was written in sections, by 2 people, in a sort of a call and answer style (which we do, as we've lived in different countries for some time). We send the sections online back and forth. I think the finished song sounds like it was written by one person. It's an example of how much on the same page you can be with someone. There was a lot already in place, looking back to when we first met at the first gig: the harmonies, the arranging skills - the music fell into place quickly together. Then there were years where we refined our music together - particularly at a 5 night per week piano bar where we performed as a duo. There was nowhere to hide, our voices and the 2 instruments were right there… no drums to hide behind. So It was an potentially an intense performance space, in some respects, but the only way you're going to make a piano bar restaurant work is for the entertainers have to be relaxed. And we certainly were. But it took a lot out of us, performing so much, even though we both loved it. To switch off, we'd walk by the river, or maybe fish. The Manawatu river rolls quietly along the rural plains, beside Palmerston North and onward to the coast. We discovered pretty quickly that the sound of the river, the breeze in the trees, the bird calls had a profound effect on our nerves, our breathing… It became a regular event, like a ritual, looking back. A very peaceful, restorative thing to do, walking by the river. Fast forward to now. I find a lot of peace where I live. I'm lucky enough to have some studio space where I paint, compose, write lyrics. I live near the Port Phillip bay,(Mornington Peninsula, Vic, Australia). I wrote the lyrics, to describe how it feels, being out in nature, unwinding. I then sent a sheet of lyrics that were really in need of an edit. But I knew Paul was about to go on holiday, which is when he often writes songs, so I felt the need to get some lyrics to him. Paul came up with a couple of verses, and the bridge…he then sent me an mp3. To carry on with. You can hear Paul's ‘initial sketch' recording on this episode. He recorded it at the camp ground. It's really great to receive these from Paul. In the studio, I have it playing in my headphones. I have tracks recording and as Paul's part stops, I kick in on the piano and voice, carry the arrangement and wing a melody for the next section. In this case it was the chorus. So you'll get to hear how it happened this time. And you'll hear where it finished up: the album version. 5th song on the album 'River Walking', I think it's pretty much right on target, for the sort of folkrock music vibe that we seem to be most comfortable producing together. There sure is some variety of styles on the album. We are stoked with it. Ok want to hear more? Hear we go, come 'River Walking' with us.
Hola comunidad, hoy nos vamos a Melbourne, que es la capital del estado de Victoria, en Australia, y la segunda ciudad más poblada del país. Ubicada en el sureste de Australia, a orillas de la bahía de Port Phillip, la ciudad se fundó en 1835 y creció rápidamente gracias a la fiebre del oro. Hoy es un importante centro financiero, cultural y educativo, conocida por su red de tranvías, su clima variable y su diversidad cultural. Melbourne es también un punto clave para el deporte en Australia, albergando eventos como el Abierto de Australia de tenis y el Gran Premio de Fórmula 1. Yo pasaría allí unos meses, solo por estar, de verdad que me fascina la ciudad. #Australia #Melbourne #Podcast #ElTurista #CesarSar

The Hume and Hovell Expedition of 1824 established some of the earliest knowledge that European colonists had about the interior of the Australian continent. It was also a journey filled with peril, frayed nerves, and bickering.

Hello, hello, hello. This IS Succotash, the Comedy Soundcast Soundcast, and I AM Marc Hershon, host for Episode 330. Sorry that this installment is a bit late. I caught a little bit of a cold, which you might still hear in my voice, and didn't want to impinge on your eardrums with my hoarseness. I'm not the ONLY host of Succotash, as you may well know. I share these duties with my awesome counterpart, Tyson Saner, as we switch off episodes so we can bring you the very most bestest clips from soundcasts across the Interverse. Just last week he hosted Epi329, an edition entitled, “Pleasure, Gender & Pens”, where he featured snippets from a trio of soundcasts, including My Pleasure, Gender Reveal, and Pen Pals. It was a delightful roundup for your ears and, if you missed it, you can still catch it across the web at ear joints like Apple & Google Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Amazon Music, Audible.com, iHeart Radio, Soundcloud, PodBay, Podcatcher, YouTube…you get it. And a great place to start listening is right from our homesite, at SuccotashShow.com, where you can dip back into our 11+ years of soundcastery deliciousness. As for this week, and what I have in store for you in this “Early Thanksgiving Feast o' Clips”, we'll be sampling Ghosted!, Overwhelmed & Living with Judith Lucy, My Dad Wrote A Porno, and The Midnight Snack. And the whole shootin' match is brought to you by our longtime, non-paying, freeloading sponsor Henderson's Pants and their new High-Waisted Hip Huggers. Before I wade into the pile of clips for this week, and for those who caught Dana Carvey on this show as my guest for Epi326, where he talked about his new soundcast, The Weird Place, you may be curious how it did in its one week debut. I talked to Dana yesterday and it has ended up in the Top 10 in comedy soundcasts for the past two weeks in a row! So now he's waiting to see if the folks at Team Coco believe in it enough to pony up the scratch to make more episodes. I bet they will. CLIPS My Dad Wrote A PornoOne of the most unique soundcasts when it debuted back in 2015 had to be My Dad Wrote A Porno. Jamie Morton discovered that his father, writing under the nom de plume “Rocky Flintstone”, had written a pornographic novel call Belinda Blinked. Reading it aloud to his friends James Cooper and Alice Levine proved to be too hilarious to keep to themselves so they turned the experience into a soundcast. I actually chatted with the trio back in our Episode 141, which you can check out on our SuccotashShow.com homesite. I wanted to revisit the show because they have recently announced that My Dad Wrote A Porno will be closing down next month. Maybe it's because they're tired of it, or maybe Rocky won't stop writing porn – he's up to his 6th book in the Belinda Blinked saga. This clip is from their “Best of Book 6” episode, where they get into some of Belinda's best bits, so to speak. Ghosted!There is certainly no shortage of soundcasts dealing with the paramormal out there. Many of them lean into comedy because, otherwise, I guess we'd just be scared shitless all the time. Take, for instance, the clip we have from Ghosted! With Roz Hernandez. Specifically from an episode that dropped earlier this month, where Roz' guest was comedian Matt Braunger. In this part of the show, they listened to a couple of EVPs, or “electronic voice phenomena”. If you don't know what those are, Roz explains at the top of the clips. And even with Roz and Matt joking about what they're hearing, you might want to sleep with your light on from now on… Judith Lucy: Overwhelmed & LivingI was turned onto this next Australian-based soundcast from our friend “Jabs”, or Jason McNamara as it says on his birth certificate, host of The DHead Factor, which is currently on the longest hiatus ever, as well as Boganwood. The soundcast is Judith Lucy: Overwhelmed & Living, and Jabs says Judith Lucy has “very dry but hilarious Australian humor”. The show description on Apple Podcasts reads: “After lockdown Judith is still asking the big questions. Between baking and wondering if she had a drinking problem, Judith wondered how happy we'd been in our old lives and why 'back to normal' is not a good idea for us or the planet. She's out to change her life and yours.” In our clip, she decides to make some changes in her home to save money and to benefit the environment. She invites Brett Hedger, the greenhouse programs officer for the City of Port Phillip, over to see just how bad her place is. It's…not good. The Midnight Snack One of the first Succotash listener-slash-supporters-slash-soundcasters out there to start using the term soundcast for their own show was Dave In The Cave. That's the only name I ever called him (although I do know his name is actually Dave Howard…), and he had a show called Taco Tuesdays. That show ended up, eventually, in the soundcast graveyard – which is a segment we should maybe bring back. After a few years off my radar, Dave In The Cave popped back on when he responded to one of our Succotash tweets last week. It turns out he has a soundcast called The Midnight Snack but he's kind of off the reservation in terms of where the show is distributed. I'm only finding it on Soundcloud, which is a fine place to be – you can find us there, too, of course. The show has an amazing cast of wacky characters who seem to appear only in bumpers between some cool original music. We have a sample from his latest episode 98… That's it. There is no more Episode 330 left in the can – it is all gone. Feel free to listen to it again if you want, or you can hang around our feed and listen to Episode 331 next week with Tyson. Actually, Tyson and I are going to each take some vacation time around Thanksgiving, so both Epi 331 AND 332 with be Succotash: Second Helpings. Past episodes from the archives that have been re-heated for your pleasure. Have a nice Thanksgiving holiday if you're in the United States. If you're elsewhere in the world, have a great Thursday! And remember: If you ever have anyone ever ask you if you've heard anything good lately, won't you please pass the Succotash? — Marc Hershon

Inger and Jason have both been dealing with challenges. For Inger it's finding time to work on her romance novels when doing a 37.5 hour week entirely on Zoom. She did, however, manage to get on Etsy and buy angry uterus stickers for her bullet journal.Jason is in Covid lockdown - again! But at least he got to take the tinny (that's a small, metal boat for non-Australian listeners) out with Shainal. The maiden voyage taught Shainal Jnr the importance of going to the bathroom before heading out in Port Phillip bay shipping lanes in 20 knot winds... Jason also answers the question: 'Can you get pulled over by the authorities when you are in a boat?' As it turns out, yes. Twice. Inger does a deep dive on University Bullshit, thanks to a great paper by Ian McCarthy, David Hannaha, Leyland Pitt and Jane M. McCarthy called "Confronting indifference toward truth: Dealing with workplace bullshit”. The paper is a brilliant explanation of bullshit and offers a framework to recognise and offers the 'CRAP' framework for dealing with it. The duo agree that managing to do a serious academic paper with the words 'crap' and 'bullshit' in it is a next level academic practice. Jason then follows up with a paper on whether or not speaking a lot in meetings is a good idea.In our 2 minute tip section, Jason shares a top tip for using your bullet journal to give you a more realistic sense of your accomplishments and Inger gloats (just a little bit) about how many bookshelves there are in her new office.We went long on this one and, honestly, Inger enjoyed it so much she did barely any snippety-doo-dah.
