Australian colonial history begins with beer: the Endeavour left England with 250 barrels on board. The drink reflects the changing fortunes of women, from Australia's first female licensee to the 1960s feminist fight to allow women into public bars. Beer has always bubbled over into politics, with Reschs' owner, Edmund Resch, thrown into a local internment camp when WWI broke — punished for his German roots, despite living here since age 16. Politicians love to be associated with beer: Prime Minister Bob Hawke set an ale-drinking world record in 1954 and has a craft beer named after him. Beer has given us a national icon – Vegemite. Now, brewers like Wildflower in Sydney are doing fascinating experiments with beer using native grains, wild yeasts and local flowers — showing how far the drink has evolved since its initial arrival into Sydney. This episode features Professor Clare Wright OAM, historian, author, broadcaster and public commentator; Alice Resch Le Cras, great-granddaughter of Edmund Resch and host of the Edmund Resch Series podcast; Karli Small, Head Brewer at The Grifter Brewing Co.; Topher Boehm, brewer and co-founder at Wildflower Beer; Claudia Moodoonuthi, Kaiadilt woman and artist; and Paul van Reyk, author of True to the Land: A History of Food in Australia.

Dr Anne Summers AO is a journalist, writer and lifelong women's rights activist. To many she is the ‘godmother of Australian feminism' and founder of the nation's first refuge for women, Elsie. Anne shot to fame back in 1975 with her first book – now a treasured Australian classic - Damned Whores and God's Police, which tore open the deeply entrenched ideology of sexism in Australia. There have been many books since, including; The End of Equality (2003), The Misogyny Factor (2012), The Lost Mother (2009), Ducks on the Pond (1999), and her outstanding Autobiography Unfettered and Alive'(2018), which charts a fascinating pathway through second wave feminism.Dr Summers worked as Bureau Chief for the Australian Financial Review, before becoming political advisor to Prime Minister Bob Hawke, and later Paul Keating, where she became a key ‘femocrat' driving major policy reform that helped expand Australian women's lives and opportunities. She went on to Head the Office of the Status of Women in the Department of the Prime Minister and CabinetDr Summers gained international fame as Editor of Ms Magazine in the USA, after raising $20 million dollars on Wall Street to fund the project. Back in Australia she took on the role as Editor of Good Weekend, and later on the global stage she Chaired Greenpeace International.In July 2022 Anne released a major report, The Choice - Violence or Poverty: Domestic violence and its consequences in Australia today.

As we look back at 10 years since ARENA was first established, we're speaking with one of the most important names in Australia's clean energy journey, Ross Garnaut. Economist Ross Garnaut has many descriptions attached to his name - emeritus professor at the University of Melbourne and the Australian National University, former economic adviser to Prime Minister Bob Hawke, ambassador to China, author - but there's one label you may not have heard: “An old dog for a hard road”.

On Moorditj Mag this week Jim Morrison and Madeleine Lombardi, talk with AFL legend Bill Dempsey about his book [The Boy from Birdum: The Bill Dempsey Story.](https://www.magabala.com/products/the-boy-from-birdum) Along the way, Steve Hawke joins the show to discuss his father, former Prime Minister Bob Hawke and his influence surrounding the 1983's America's Cup.
Episode 78 Dr Anne Summers AODr Anne Summers AO is a pioneering Australian feminist, a best-selling author and journalist with a long career in politics, the media, business and the non-government sector in Australia, Europe, and the United States. It would not be a stretch to say her first book, published in 1975,Damned Whores and God's Police, changed the way Australia viewed women. Her career is almost the ultimate example of taking opportunities as they present themselves, even if they're outside your comfort zone. Consider a few things she undertook with little or no previous experience....moving to Canberra to become bureau chief for the Australian Financial Review, working in politics as an adviser to Prime Minister Bob Hawke and later Prime Minister Paul Keating. Moving to New York to become editor in chief of the iconic feminist magazine Ms. And, when a young Warwick Fairfax decided the magazine businesses of his media empire should be sold, Anne with her business partner, undertook for only the second time in U.S. corporate history, an all-female management buyout of the magazine. And then there's the first ever post prime ministerial interview with Julia Gillard - at a sold out Opera House in Sydney if you don't mind. The rock star reception for both Anne and Julia on the night was not only unforeseen but unprecedented for a political interview. And there's more to come in her career. Indefatigable, unrelenting, dogged, outspoken, fearless and driven by injustice (it seems to me anyway)...with a wicked sense of humour. It was a fabulous opportunity for me to have this conversation with Anne Summers. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Her books, Damned Whores and God's Police and her memoir, Unfettered and Alive are available at Booktopia.com.au
The fourteenth issue of Australian Foreign Affairs examines the rising tensions over the future of Taiwan, as China's pursuit of “unification” pits it against the United States and US allies such as Australia. The Taiwan Choice looks at the growing risk of a catastrophic war and the outlook for Australia as it faces a strategic choice that could reshape its future in Asia.

Journalist and author Troy Bramston has written a mammoth biography of former Prime Minister Bob Hawke, shedding light on even more of his personal foibles and political achievements. And former publisher and journalist Julianne Schultz's book 'The idea of Australia' combines decades of observations about how our country needs to find its soul, and a more unified sense of purpose.
After losing by an innings at the MCG, the Australian inquest started. Allan Border gathered a group of “survivors” in a Melbourne hotel to draw a line in the sand. Down the road, at Kooyong, his ignominy was compounded by Pat Cash winning the Davis Cup for Australia. Prime Minister Bob Hawke rubs salt into Ashes wounds. “If only we had 11 Pat Cash's at the MCG today” he famously remarked. One Pat Cash joins us on the pod. Amazingly, six months later, Border was lifting the World Cup. How did that happen?! This is the story of how a cricket team, usurped by a tennis team, recovered to become a global superpower.

Professor Ross Garnaut is one of Australia’s most distinguished economists and a global expert on climate change, trade, and energy policy. He was Prime Minister Bob Hawke’s principal economic advisor and was Australia’s Ambassador to China. He’s lead many government reviews, including the seminal though ill-fated Garnaut Climate Change Review into carbon emission reduction for the then Rudd Government. He is the author of many studies and books too numerous to mention, but his recent book - Superpower - details how Australia can make the most of the economic benefits of the upcoming clean energy revolution.Misha Zelinsky caught up with Ross for a chinwag about the politics of climate change including why Kevin Rudd was unable to pass his emissions trading scheme in 2009 and who was to blame, why COVID-19 shouldn’t distract us from climate change action, why Australia should be the world’s smelter for aluminium and steel and how renewable power can make Australia a manufacturing powerhouse, what the decoupling between the US and China means for Australia’s security, and why we need coordinated global action more than ever.
The Producer chose 1983 and it was a huge year for Australian sport. Locally and abroad. It all came to a head in September when in the space of three days newly appointed Prime Minister Bob Hawke attended the VFL Grand Final at the MCG, NSWRL Grand Final at the SCG and the America's Cup in Fremantle. Parramatta were way too good in the NSWRL Grand Final despite the marketing from Tooheys in 1984. In the VFL Grand Final Hawthorn hammered Essendon despite North Melbourne being the 1983 Minor Premiers. And then in the America's Cup, Australia II came back from tactical errors, nerves, mechanical malfunctions and a 3-1 deficit to win the most elusive trophy in world sport. Also Martina Navratilova won 3 slams, and Kiwi came from last on the turn to win the Melbourne Cup.

Michael is joined by chartered accountant Derek Smith about the ‘2 cent tax’, the concept of which dates back to 1977 when the doors were opened to China which saw the demise of local manufacturing and loss of jobs in Australia. It was documented, modelled and the tax rate of 2% calculated in a ‘Taxation Summit Presentation’ by Mr Smith dated 26 May 1985 and sent to Prime Minister Bob Hawke. 2% Tax modelling has shown that on average prices of goods and services reduce by 30% which increases by 40% the purchasing power of all money of individuals, businesses and government

The Lowy Institute hosted one of Australia’s most provocative public commentators, Professor Hugh White. Lowy Institute Senior Fellow Richard McGregor chaired a discussion on Professor White’s new book, How to Defend Australia. Over the past decade, Professor White has set the agenda of Australia’s China debate. This book will do the same for defence policy. Hugh White AO is Professor of Strategic Studies at the Australian National University and author of The China Choice and the Quarterly Essay 39, Power Shift. He has served as an intelligence analyst with the Office of National Assessments, as a senior adviser to Defence Minister Kim Beazley and to Prime Minister Bob Hawke, and as a senior official in the Department of Defence, where from 1995 to 2000 he was Deputy Secretary for Strategy and Intelligence.

His Lowy Institute Paper, Xi Jinping: The Backlash, will be published in late July.
In this National Security Podcast extra, we speak to Professor Hugh White AO about his new book, How to Defend Australia. Hugh argues for a radical shift in the way we view America’s role in Asia, and that Australia can no longer count on US support should it find itself under the threat of being attacked. The discussion includes how China’s expanding economic and military power is dominating the region and what that means for the structure of Australia’s defence forces. As the region shifts and China flexes its military and economic muscles, how should Australia structure its national defence for the coming decades? Throughout his book, Hugh suggests that Australia should abandon its current plans for 12 French submarines and building 24 submarines, sell most of its newer vessels, and double the purchase of Joint Strike Fighter aircrafts. Little has set a fire under Australia’s national security community this much since his last book, The China Choice. Join us for an in-depth conversation where we test some of Hugh’s assumptions and detail his thinking of why the country needs to completely rethink the way it defends itself. Hugh White AO is Professor of Strategic Studies at the Australian National University. His work focuses primarily on Australian strategic and defence policy, Asia-Pacific security issues, and global strategic affairs especially as they influence Australia and the Asia-Pacific. He has served as an intelligence analyst with the Office of National Assessments, as a journalist with the Sydney Morning Herald, as a senior adviser on the staffs of Defence Minister Kim Beazley and Prime Minister Bob Hawke, and as a senior official in the Department of Defence, where from 1995 to 2000 he was Deputy Secretary for Strategy and Intelligence, and as the first Director of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute.

This is a special edition of Brews News, live from GABS in Melbourne. Thanks to Bintani, Brews News was able to take our mobile studio to GABS and capture some great discussions with a wide range of people in the beer industry. GABS offered a great opportunity to be more candid with our guests and discuss a wide range of issues affecting the brewing industry. Today we have a series of shorter interviews, firstly Sam Fuss from Philter Brewing, who talks about her career, making the AIBA trophy winning beer for the awards night this year, what it meant to win the gypsy brewer trophy last year and also her possibly disappointing results this year on the back of that. We discuss the name gypsy brewer and its appropriateness as a label in this day and age and Sam also announces that she's just put a deposit on her very own stainless steel so she won't be fitting that description much longer. We also manage to catch up with Justin Fox and Ash Hazel, the former and current head brewers at Colonial Brewing. We hear of Colonials current expansion and whether the new brewer ever calls upon the advice and experience of the old brewer. We learn about the breweries relationship with Colonial Leisure Group and what advantages if any accrue to business with it's own pubs. This chat was recorded the day after the news that former Prime Minister Bob Hawke died and we get Justin's reaction to that news given he created the beer brewed in Bob Hawke's name and got the know the former PM quite well. Enjoy the conversation.

It’s been a busy few weeks in Australia and the world, and in a full episode Allan and Darren begin with the restrictions announced by the Trump Administration on the sale of technology to Huawei, and what this means for US-China competition. They pivot closer to home to Papua New Guinea and the resignation of its Prime Minister. Next, they reflect upon four election results: Australia, India, Indonesia and the European Union, and then turn to the announcement of two new Australian Ambassadors to the United States and the United Nations, both ex-politicians. Finally, Allan remembers Prime Minister Bob Hawke. As always, we invite our listeners to email us at this address: australia.world.pod@gmail.com We welcome feedback, requests and suggestions.

Engaging with the 2019 NAIDOC Week theme - "Voice. Treaty. Truth - Let's work together for a shared future", hear from our PEACEtalks Director, Brooke Prentis, Wakka Wakka woman, Aboriginal Christian Leader, Aboriginal Spokesperson for Common Grace, and Coordinator of the The Grasstree Gathering educate us on Treaty, share some truth, and echo the calls for Voice, Treaty, Truth. NAIDOC Week runs from the first Sunday to the second Sunday of July each year and in 2019 runs from 7 – 14 July. NAIDOC Week follows National Reconciliation Week (#NRW) which runs from 27 May – 3 June each year. This year’s NAIDOC week theme puts the calls from the Statement from the Heart on Australia’s minds, and hopefully on Australia’s hearts. It follows that Australia remains the only Commonwealth nation and one of the last liberal democracies without a Treaty with Indigenous peoples, it follows the 1988 Barunga Statement where Prime Minister Bob Hawke promised a Treaty, and it follows Yothu Yindi’s 1991 song “Treaty”. PEACEtalks is a monthly event (held on a Thursday or Saturday evening) hosted by Paddington Anglican Church aimed at serving the community by promoting and cultivating deep conversations about life, the world and everything. ‘PEACE’ stands for ‘political, ethical, artistic & cultural engagement’. As such, our events seek to take all of these areas of our shared humanity seriously in a world where such things are often marginalized. We also seek to demonstrate the ways in which spiritual and theological reflection enable us to look at all of these important areas afresh.

Hi folks. Welcome to Sell, Serve, Prosper Radio. This is an unashamed tribute. In this podcast, it’s the day after the great Bob Hawke, Prime Minister of Australia during the 80’s and 90’s, has died. He’s 89 years of age. So, the media is talking about this fellow, Bob Hawke, and I just wanted to: Do a tribute. Know what it is that we can learn from this guy. Now, I’ve asked you to take off your liberal party or partisan glasses here, and just look at the human being. As I’ve said on Facebook, yes, Bob Hawke had human failings like all of us. But at the same time, he was an absolute giant in the area of change, vision, and making things happen. And in fact, you’ll see from the data that he and his team really laid the foundation for 20 years of economic prosperity. Let’s put politics to one side and: Let’s honour the Australian citizen, the man himself, the human being. Go “What can we learn from it? What are the points?” I’ve come up with 15 different action points, ideas, and strategies that we can use as fellow human beings, no matter what country you’re in, to learn from this fellow, Robert James Lee Hawke. Have a listen to this.

Welcome to La Trobe University’s Clever Conversations. In this episode, we introduce you to The La Trobe Debates – a new series of discussions between those with genuinely different points of view, about some of the most pressing and polarising issues Australians now face. This series is convened by the University’s Ideas and Society program. Shortly, you will hear from Hugh White and Clive Hamilton, who are two of the most important voices on Australia’s relationship with China. In this one-hour debate, they will discuss the potential threats China poses to Australian security, and what Australia’s China Policy should be. Hugh White is Emeritus Professor of Strategic Studies at the Australian National University. He has been an intelligence analyst, a journalist, a senior staffer to Defence Minister Kim Beazley and Prime Minister Bob Hawke, a senior official in the Defence Department, and the first Director of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute. Clive Hamilton is professor of public ethics at Charles Sturt University. He was the founder, and for 14 years, executive director, of The Australia Institute. Held in association with La Trobe Asia, the following debate is moderated by La Trobe University international relations scholar, Dr Bec Strating.
In this very special episode of the podcast (the final recording of 2018), Allan and Darren interview Dennis Richardson, one of the most distinguished public servants in Australia’s history. Dennis is the only person to have served in the following positions: Chief of Staff to the Prime Minister (Bob Hawke); Director General of Security (including during the 9/11 attacks); Australian Ambassador to the United States; and Secretary to both the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the Department of Defence. Dennis and Allan both joined the then Department of External Affairs as graduates in 1969 and, as you will hear, much has changed, and much is still the same! Dennis offers his thoughts on a wide-ranging set of issues including the centralisation and securitsation of foreign policy, an assessment of the United States under Trump, the “economics versus security” debate in Australia, and what qualities political leaders need to be successful in navigating today’s complex world. A reminder: we invite our listeners to email us at this address: australia.world.pod@gmail.com We welcome feedback, requests and suggestions. You can also contact Darren on twitter @limdarrenj We give our warmest thanks to outgoing AIIA interns Stephanie Rowell and Mani Bovell for their stellar support in helping us launch the podcast. We also thank Martyn Pearce of the ANU’s Crawford School, Rory Stenning for composing our theme music, and AIIA CEO Melissa Conley-Tyler. Stay tuned for new episodes in the weeks ahead!
It's hard to imagine the ABC without Insiders, the television show that reshaped the broadcaster's Sunday morning political programming. Host Barrie Cassidy launched Insiders 17 years ago, but plans for the program actually began in Belgium, where he sketched out a promising format with his houseguests, photographer Mike Bowers and future news director Gaven Morris.Barrie has seen both sides of politics in an extensive career. He spent three years as a press gallery journalist in Canberra, and six as Prime Minister Bob Hawke's press secretary.In this episode of Behind the Media, he tells Stephen Brook about accusations of partisan bias, what went wrong with sacked ABC managing director Michelle Guthrie, and his own experiences of political fallout at the national broadcaster decades ago.
