Thanks to Viki, Erin, Weller, and Stella for their suggestions this week! Further reading: Tasmanian tiger pups found to be extraordinary similar to wolf pups The thylacine could open its jaws really wide: A sugar glider, gliding [photo from this page]: A happy quokka and a happy person: A swimming platypus: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. This week we're going to learn about some marsupial mammals suggested by Erin, Weller, and Stella, and a bonus non-marsupial from Australia suggested by Viki. Marsupials are mammals that give birth to babies that aren't fully formed yet, and the babies then finish developing in the mother's pouch. Not all female marsupials actually have a pouch, although most do. Marsupials are extremely common in Australia, but they're also found in most other places around the world. Let's start with Weller's suggestion, the Tasmanian tiger. We've talked about it before, but not recently. We talked about it in our very first episode, in fact! Despite its name, it isn't related to the tiger at all. Tigers are placental mammals, and the Tasmanian tiger is a marsupial. It's also called the thylacine to make things less confusing. The thylacine was declared extinct after the last known individual died in captivity in 1936, but sightings have continued ever since. It's not likely that a population is still around these days, but the thylacine is such a great animal that people hold out hope that it has survived and will one day be rediscovered. It got the name Tasmanian tiger because when European colonizers arrived in Tasmania, they saw a striped animal the size of a big dog, about two feet high at the shoulder, or 61 cm, and over six feet long if you included the long tail, or 1.8 meters. It was yellowish-brown with black stripes on the back half of its body and down its tail, with a doglike head and rounded ears. The thylacine was a nocturnal marsupial native to mainland Australia and the Australian island of Tasmania, but around 4,000 years ago, climate change caused more and longer droughts in eastern Australia and the thylacine population there went extinct. By 3,000 years ago, all the mainland thylacines had gone extinct, leaving just the Tasmanian population. The Tasmanian thylacines underwent a population crash around the same time that the mainland Australia populations went extinct—but the Tasmanian population had recovered and was actually increasing when Europeans showed up and started shooting them. The thylacine mostly ate small animals like ducks, water rats, and bandicoots. Its skull was very similar in shape to the wolf, which it wasn't related to at all, but its muzzle was longer and its jaws were comparatively much weaker. Its jaws could open incredibly wide, which usually indicates an animal that attacks prey much larger than it is, but studies of the thylacine's jaws and teeth show that they weren't strong enough for the stresses of attacking large animals. Next, Stella wanted to learn about the sugar glider, and I was surprised that we haven't talked about it before. It's a nocturnal marsupial native to the forests of New Guinea and parts of Australia, with various subspecies kept as exotic pets in some parts of the world. It's called a glider because of the animal's ability to glide. It has a flap of skin between its front and back legs, called a patagium, and when it stretches its legs out, the patagia tighten and act as a parachute. This is similar to other gliding animals, like the flying squirrel. The sugar glider resembles a rodent, but it isn't. It's actually a type of possum. It lives in trees and has a partially prehensile tail that helps it climb around more easily, and of course it can glide from tree to tree. It's an omnivore that eats insects, spiders, and other small animals, along with plant material, mainly sap. It will gnaw little holes in a tree to get at the sap or gum that ...

For a man who has been there and pretty much done it all in the Australian music industry, Mark Lizotte - or Diesel to his friends - is one hell of a humble guy.First snapping necks with Johnny Diesel & The Injectors in the mid to late 1980s, the 90s saw Diesel launch a solo career that has seen his career progress in a steady trajectory that is a testament to the workman-like way in which he goes about his business. Singer, guitarist, producer and multi-instrumentalist, Diesel has mastered all aspects of his craft with a youthful exuberance and genuine love for music that is as infectious as it is rare.After releasing his 17th studio album Bootleg Melancholy in 2023, Diesel could be forgiven for being a touch pickier about where, when and how he plays, but by talking to the man, you get the feeling such thoughts are barely a whisper in his subconsciousness. Instead, Diesel has spent much of this year on the road, culminating with his current By Request Tour, which sees fans and audience members choosing his nightly set list in a performance where it is guaranteed no two shows will be alike.But rather than hang his guitar on the rack at the completion of this successful run of shows, Diesel recently announced his intentions to fire it back up again for round 2 early next year, with another 21 shows added from January through to April. And seeing how it is blatantly obvious Diesel doesn't know what to do with his spare time, HEAVY jumps at the chance to keep him busy by accepting the invitation to have a yarn about life on the road. We start by pointing out that he must be a glutton for punishment to basically turn straight back around and head out for another run of shows."I hope it's not punishment," Diesel laughed. "No, it's been really fun, I have to say. I've really enjoyed these ones. I think in the back of my mind, I was always like, well, if we're going to do regionals, let's do some cities too. Take it to the big smoke."We get a bit cheeky and ask if the songs for each night's set list are 100% as voted by the fans, or if he sometimes takes liberties with what he feels like or doesn't feel like playing."I try to attach a person's story or name to every song," he smiled. "I've got the analytics come to me in a document, and it's all very… It's great, actually. They've got graphs of songs and which ones have been chosen, and I can see which ones are more popular than others on particular nights. It's a lot of information for me to digest. And along with that, I think the thing that is most usable and intangible are the comments that people write about why they want that song."In the full interview, we ask Diesel if there have been many surprise requests, any that he has seen come up and cringed, and if he can see any trends between different eras of his career. We ask how he remembers so many songs on demand, the range of songs people can draw from, and the personal nature of these particular performances.We look back on his career and ask Diesel if he ever has time to reflect on his achievements, next year's run, which starts in Tasmania and ends at the Sydney Opera House, the prestige of playing there, and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

"I had to sell personal belongings just to make payroll." Luke Davies isn't ashamed to admit the early struggles of his construction business. From a dairy farm in Sheffield, Tasmania, to running successful building and architecture enterprises, Luke's journey demonstrates what happens when resilience meets strategic learning. We sat down with Luke to understand how he transformed early failures into a thriving business model that's now helping other builders avoid the same mistakes.For builders facing the daunting 90% failure statistic, Luke's story offers practical lessons: admit what you don't know, invest in coaching and education, understand that building is about more than construction and recognise that homes profoundly impact the people living in them.Luke's evolution from struggling award-winner to successful business owner and industry educator proves that construction entrepreneurship requires more than technical skills. Understanding the deeper purpose of creating spaces that enhance wellbeing, combined with business acumen and community engagement, separates thriving businesses from those that become statistics.LINKS:Luke's Book: https://www.amazon.com.au/Dream-Home-building-sanctuary-healthy/dp/1781338779Davies Construction Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/daviesconstructiontasConnect with us on Instagram: @themindfulbuilderpodConnect with Hamish:Instagram: @sanctumhomesWebsite: www.yoursanctum.com.au/Connect with Matt: Instagram: @carlandconstructionsWebsite: www.carlandconstructions.com/

About 70,000 years ago, there was a huge piece of land off the coast of Australia that could have supported around half a million people. This land connected modern-day Indonesia to Australia and was part of the North-West Australian Shelf. It used to be part of a bigger landmass called Sahul, which linked Australia, New Guinea, and Tasmania into one continent. Today, scientists are mapping this lost "Atlantis" to learn more about it.

I know he’s the GOAT but Goorj must be feeling the heat? Surely it’s time to pull the trigger on that Kings import spot? What do they need.

Isla MacGregor, a free speech and whistleblower advocate in Tasmania, Australia, relates the blowback she has experienced by gender-critical feminists for her criticism of the Israeli genocide in Gaza that is reminiscent of the very same type of behaviour enacted by the gender ideologues whom these feminists had heretofore criticised. Observing how the slurs and slogans that have been used by those feminists defending Israel's genocide of Palestinians are remarkably similar in both form and spirit to the slurs used against women's rights activists over the past two decades, MacGregor analyses these tactics as part of a wider war propaganda machinery. Summarising how many feminists whose “absolute ignorance of the history of Palestine and the Israeli conflict” functions in oppositional incoherence to these same feminists' critique of gender ideology, MacGregor discusses how gender ideology's complete absence of any hard evidence or rigorous peer-reviewed research is eerily similarly to Zionist and pro-genocidal beliefs: many people in these groups do not care about evidence or reality, nor do they care. MacGregor notes the irony in how many feminists who had long fought against the anti-reality, counterfactual discourse of gender ideology are now adopting an anti-factual posture when it comes to Israel as they shut down other women who recognise the reality of the current genocide in Gaza, asking, “What did we learn from the trans rights debate?” Get full access to Savage Minds at savageminds.substack.com/subscribe
