Sérfræðingurinn, Stymmi Klippari og Alli Eyjólfs kíktu í stúdíó Handkastsins og gerðu upp vikuna í handboltanum á Íslandi. Kíkti einhver á 35 manna lista fyrir HM kvenna? Þetta var slæm vika fyrir xG tölfræðina. Er KA einum góðum markmanni frá því að geta keppt um titla? Kvennadeildin aldrei verið jafnari og það gætu verið þrjú lið með jafn mörg stig fyrir HM pásu. Þetta og svo miklu miklu meira í nýjasta þætti Handkastsins.

Send us a textJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musiciansA carrot for a mic, a song over supermarket speakers, and a stealthy dash down the confectionery aisle—Diesel opens with a grin and then gets real about what it takes to build shows that last. We dig into why theaters are his sweet spot right now: reliable sound, warm lights, comfortable seats, and the space to let a decades-deep catalog breathe. Long sets aren't a stunt; they're how you honor history while making room for surprises, including a few covers that sharpen the edges of the night.The heart of the conversation is the By Request Tour. Fans pick songs from a curated list and can share the stories behind their choices. Diesel reads those notes slowly, often more than once, and the effect is profound: proof that music isn't background noise but a lifeline for mental health, memory, and connection. From funny requests aimed at mending a breakup to three-generation tributes, the pile of letters has reshaped how he sees his own work. We also talk about the unexpected star of the request box—Moon River—and why its melancholy glow still cuts through in 2025, alongside staples like Crying Shame and Tip of My Tongue.There's plenty of road talk too: desert festivals from Birdsville to Mundi Mundi, the abstract beauty of Australia from 30,000 feet, and the balance of touring with family life, early summer mornings, and a little baking on the side. Diesel shares recent collaborations, producing credits with artists like Richard Clapton, Vika and Linda, and Imogen Clark, and hints at a new album planned for 2026. New theater dates run January to April, with a homecoming at the Sydney Opera House—proof that careful craft and genuine connection still fill rooms.If you love stories about how songs find people—and how people shape songs in return—press play, share it with a friend who needs a lift, and leave a review to help more listeners find the show.What has Mark Lizotte been up to lately?

Moscow Underground (HarperCollins, 2025) by Dr. Catherine Merridale is a sweeping novel of life, death and politics in the quicksand world of Stalin's tyranny. Moscow's glittering new subway is under construction at last. The first line will run through the centre of the city, cutting deep through Moscow soil. But futures cannot be created without digging up the past. Though Russia's leaders want to build a glorious Soviet capital, what holds them in a fatal grip is history: old mud and bones. Anton Belkin is an Investigator at the Procuracy, a sensitive job at a dangerous moment on the road to the Show Trials. He is also someone who needs to keep his head down. His artist father was once the darling of the revolutionary avant-garde, a painter whose work could inspire devotion and great sacrifice. But now his dreams are out of place, too loud and red in Stalin's world of sterile rules and rubber stamps. Anton is dragged into a murder case. A prominent archaeologist, working alongside the subway dig, has been killed in a deserted mansion. Though Anton doesn't want the job, his former lover, Vika, who is now a powerful member of the secret police, browbeats him into paying a visit to the site with her. Against his better judgement he is drawn to follow though, embarking on investigations that will almost certainly get him killed. Deep underground, he finds a priceless secret that could genuinely unlock the future but links him to a vicious internecine fight for power in the young Soviet state. In the process, he is forced to reconsider the history he shares with Vika and the bonds that bind them both. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
