After coercing farmers to plant marijuana crops in their fields, organised crime figures laid the seed for a dominant and violent drug empire across the Victorian borders. But, when police raided the farms, it was the growers who faced the consequences, as mob members threatened them and their families to stay quiet. Former Victoria Police detective Ray Shuey was at the pointy end of that investigation, and sits down with host Brent Sanders to explain how he helped organise the 50kg drug buy that busted the crooks, and the complexities of protecting the growers whilst pursuing the mafia.  If the episode affects you, the number for Life Line is 13 11 14. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From being ‘canceled', to alcoholism and post-natal depression, Yumi Stynes knows how to get vulnerable in the Vulnerabilitea House. Starting as a magnetic, music presenter on Channel V, Yumi's career spans more than 20 years on our screens, on the radio, or in the very successful books she's written. However as she shares with Hugh, Ryan and Josh, there were times when the phone simply didn't ring and her career felt like it was at a stand-still.  In this episode, Yumi shares stories from her childhood, from feelings of isolation; to being the victim of racism in 1980s Swan Hill; we discuss the loss of her father and how that experience shaped her perspective on life; to what it was actually like being 'cancelled' and the role friendship played in her lowest moments; above all, Yumi tells us of her struggles with alcohol, and how her decision to quit transformed her life. So buckle up for a big one! We know you'll love this chat as much as we did!

30 years ago this year, a small independent film, by a first time director, and an unknown cast, hit our screens. That film was Strictly Ballroom. And so, for our final episode of Season 2 of Talking Pointes, I'm speaking with the legendary Paul Mercurio. Paul was born in Swan Hill in regional Victoria and started dancing after he saw his elder sister in a local dance class. With dad off the scene early, the family moved to Perth where Paul continued to train at the John Curtin Senior High School as it was known then, before, at 18, being accepted in the Australian Ballet School in Melbourne. But in a rebel move, he joined Sydney Dance Company before graduating, it was the golden era of Graeme Murphy's directorship. It was a position he held for ten years, as a principal dancer, muse and choreographer. During his later years Sydney Dance Company, Paul received a call from an unknown director called Baz Lurhmann who asked him to help choreograph on a dance film. It was a call that changed his life. In this wonderfully honest interview, Paul talks about his early years in dance, his “angry man” years as he calls them—where he wrote poetry, smoked weed, and rode motorbikes. We also talk about how Strictly Ballroom came to be, the behind the scene, and how the film changed his life. Finally we talk new careers, raising a family, and his plans for making a more inclusive community in his local area.Paul and I recorded remotely, with Paul dialling in from Melbourne on the land of the Kulin people. Paul's episode was produced in Sydney on the land of the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation, to whom we pay our greatest respects.

Silvano Brocca ist vor vierzehn Jahren von Zürich-Seebach nach Australien ausgewandert. Heute lebt und arbeitet der 44-Jährige in der kleinen Stadt Swan Hill, nördlich von Melbourne: «Hier begegnet man wahren Australiern.» Australien ist für viele Schweizerinnen und Schweizer nach wie vor einer der beliebtesten Auswandererdestinationen. Auch Silvano Brocca hat es vor vierzehn Jahren gepackt. Lange lebte der Zürcher mit italienischen Wurzeln in Melbourne. Heute ist Swan Hill sein zu Hause. Die kleine Stadt im Bundesstaat Victoria ist rund vier Stunden von Melbourne entfernt: «Hier geht alles viel gemächlicher zu und her.» Silvano Brocca und seine Verlobte Patricia fühlen sich wohl unter den Einheimischen: «Swan Hill ist klein und fein. Ein bezaubernder Ort mit vielen kleinen Seen und Parks mitten im Outback.» Das Paar besitzt ein schmuckes Haus mit Umschwung. Kängurus, die an der Garage vorbei hüpfen, gehören zum Alltag in Australien. Gips und Salz für die Landwirtschaft Silvano Brocca ist Geschäftsführer einer Firma, die Gips und Salz für die Landwirtschaft abbaut: «Gips ist für den Boden hier ein wichtiger Nährstoff. Das Salz wird dem Futter für die Nutztiere beigemischt oder für die Lederverarbeitung eingesetzt.» Trotz Karriere, macht sich der 44-jährige oft Gedanken, vielleicht doch irgendwann mal in die Schweiz zurückzukehren: «Ich habe in Zürich meine Familie, die ich sehr vermisse.»
