Episode 1: Benson Saulo   There are many ways to describe Benson Saulo. A descendant of the Wemba Wemba and Gunditjmara Aboriginal nations of Western Victoria, and New Ireland Province in Papua New Guinea. The first Indigenous person to be appointed an Australian Consul-General in Australia's history. A former Senior Trade and Investment Commissioner based in Houston. He's represented Australia on the global stage at the United Nations. Now he is the Liberal candidate for Macnamara in Melbourne ahead of the 2025 federal election. But it all started with his passion and belief in faith, family, finance and fairness, which have propelled him forward over his 30-something years to now. Dig deeper and you'll also find that Benson once sported a mohawk and wore a three-piece suit – not at the same time. Be inspired and humbled as you walk with Benson through this special conversation.    TWO AM I Listen Curiously CREDITS   Hosts: Jack Riewoldt and Shane McCurry   Thanks to our guest Benson Saulo   To learn more about Benson: Benson on LinkedIn Benson on Facebook Benson Saulo: Liberal candidate for Macnamara   Links from this episode: First Australians Capital Sobah non-alcoholic drinks Camino de Santiago The Way (movie)     Find TWO AM I on social media here: TWO AM I YouTube TWO AM I Instagram  TWO AM I Tik Tok TWO AM I LinkedIn TWO AM I LinktreeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Acknowledgement of Country//Headlines//Andrew Yue - Jesuit Social Services Marisa on Doin Time interviewed Andrew Yue who has worked at Jesuit Social Services for over 10+ years, regarding raising the age of criminal responsibility. They spoke about the Youth Justice Bill 2024 that seeks to raise the age all the way to 14, and most importantly for young people who carry out certain behaviour, we have to address what's driving the behaviour and address trauma, and renegagement with community, education, family to ensure that young people can flourish. However, there are concerns around how the bill is implemented, police powers, and what this means for young people. You can catch the full show on Doin Time on 3CR Mondays from 4pm - 5pm. // Harry - Renters & Housing UnionLast month, the Allan government announced a long awaited amendment to minimum rental standards in Victoria. While change is welcomed by renters and advocates, there are significant oversights - some of which we covered in our talk on July 6 with Sophie Emder from Sweltering Cities. This week, we are joined by Harry, secretary of the Renters and Housing Union to discuss their submission on the proposed minimum standards. Sweltering Cities and RAHU worked together to centre community in their submissions by running a series of workshops, and today we will be delving into the recommendations formulated as a result.// Madi - Monash Palestine Solidarity Encampment. We hear from Madi Curkovic who is a Monash Student Association Queer Officer and an organiser at Students for Palestine Monash. She is also one of the nine students at Monash being threatened with expulsion or suspension for organising the Gaza solidarity encampment at Monash. In a speech given at the Free Palestine Naarm Rally on 30 June 2024, Madi spoke about the complicity of universities and educational institutions in Israel's genocide of Palestine and the silencing of pro-Palestinian students on campus.// Deputy Chair and Commissioner Sue-Anne Hunter - The Yoorrook Justice CommissionYoorrook, or ‘truth' in the Wemba-Wemba language, is a fundamental element in the fight for First Nations justice in so-called Australia. The Yoorrook Justice Commission launched in 2022 as the first formal truth telling process investigating the ongoing impacts of colonisation on First Nations people. Last month, the Commission saw its seventh round of public hearings and today we are joined by Deputy Chair and Commissioner Sue-Anne Hunter to unpack them. Sue-Anne is a proud Wurundjeri and Ngurai Illum Wurrung woman, who is widely recognised for developing rights-based, transformative practice responses that empower First Nations people to heal from the continuing effects and processes of colonisation.

I sat down with David and Aunty Jeanette Crew to discuss their unique journey to owning their own farm in On Country. Aunty Jeanette, a Wemba Wemba woman, was forcibly relocated from the mission into town during her primary school years in the 60s. We discuss her take on first hand institutional racism. We also discuss what the economics were like for her family, who primarily worked in the shearing industry; and were paid at the same rates as their non-Aboriginal counterparts. After being “relocated”, the standard of living was drastically affected, but Aunty kept a passion for learning and a desire to do better. After studying and years working in public service, Aunty Jeanette decided it was time to return to Country. In the late 90s David and Jeanette purchased the Killara property in Deniliquin. They were the first to purchase land back on Country in their local area. So surprising that onlookers assumed they had been given the land by the government. More recently, Killara has joined in partnership with the Outback Academy's program called Follow the Flowers, which works alongside the Government and private sector to fund Indigenous growers to maximise their growing capacities. With support from the Murray-Darling Basin Economic Development Program, David and Aunty Jeanette have the much needed industry experience for turning their plot of land into a sanctuary for bees, pollinating endemic native floral, fauna, and bush foods.  They have named the farm Pandyil Farm in honour of the industrious Murray Cod.

It will again invite audiences to immerse themselves in Blak stories- our truth, our way. YIRRAMBOI means ‘tomorrow' in both the Boonwurrung and Woiwurrung peoples language. It will celebrate the interconnectedness and diversity of First Nations creatives, both locally and globally, through a 10-day celebration of various artistic expressions that showcase the resilience and evolutionary practices of First Nations people. During this episode, Sky and Rosie offer insights into what people can expect at this year's event, which includes a vast array of immersive experience with a ‘post apocalyptic theme' - such as music, dance, drag, visual arts, fashion and so much more! We yarn about Rosie's and Sky family which have inspired their artistic joy and abilities,  yarn some of their favourite and upcoming creatives, and of course, why Blak spaces that ooze Blak love and joy are needed. Naarm/Melbourne, are you ready to feel the hum of Country beneath.

The Bunyip is also referred to as the Kianpraty, and it's a creature of Aboriginal mythology that lives in various areas of Australia, such as creeks, rivers, and swamps. In the Wemba-Wemba language, it's also called "devil". Stories about these animals have been told by Aboriginal peoples, and they've been known to prey on children. In modern times, there have been many different descriptions of the Bunyip.It's believed that the bunyip made booming or roaring noises when it was told to kill people, especially children and women. The origin of this belief could be found in the appearance of seals that were far upstream from their regular course and the booming nose of the bittern marsh bird.The Bunyip is a bird-like creature that's similar to an alligator. Its head and body are similar to that of an emu, and its long bill has a similar serrated appearance to that of a stingray. The Bunyip's hind legs are incredibly strong, and its fore legs are longer than its body. Natives claim that the Bunyip uses its long arms and legs to kill its prey by hugging it to death. When it's in the water, it swims like a frog, and when it's on the shore, it stands up tall which could be around twelve or thirteen feet.There are many different descriptions of the Bunyip. Some people claim that it has a dog-like face, and it has a horse-like tail, dark fur, a duck-like bill, and a pair of tusks. Others think it looks like a snake with a beard. Although it is hard to tell from the descriptions what the animal looks like due to its varying appearance, all agree that it is an aquatic mammal.Read more at https://mythlok.com/bunyip/
