This week, we’re revisiting one of our most powerful and thought-provoking yarns—with the legendary Uncle Bruce Pascoe. A proud Bunurong, Tasmanian, and Yuin man, Uncle Bruce is a celebrated author, historian, and farmer, best known for his groundbreaking book Dark Emu. In this episode, we dive deep into the truth-telling of our past, and the future we can create through Indigenous knowledge, self-determination, and sustainable land practices. Uncle Bruce shares stories of resilience, the revival of traditional Aboriginal agriculture, and the importance of defining ourselves—on our own terms. From revitalising native grains on his farm to pushing back against systemic racism and the myth of the ‘hunter-gatherer’, this conversation is as inspiring as it is urgent. Whether this is your first listen or a return to a favourite, this yarn reminds us why truth-telling and cultural knowledge must be at the heart of Australia’s journey forward.

Friends! Comrades! Welcome to another episode of the Radio Reversal podcast, continuing our series on Disaster, Crisis & Collective Futures. If you haven't already listened to the first couple of episodes in this series - never fear! You can jump in fresh here, or head back and listen to Episode 12 - After the Flood & Episode 13 - Disaster Communism with Nick Southall. In these episodes, we chatted about weather events like Cyclone Alfred & what happens during “disasters”: how the parameters of political possibility shift, sometimes incrementally, and sometimes all at once. We talked about two very different expressions of these political ruptures: “disaster capitalism,” where corporations and the state use these events as opportunities to expand state and corporate power and to find new frontiers of capitalist exploitation, and “disaster communism,” in which communities self-organise to support one another, forge networks of mutual aid and care, and build a genuinely radical sense of “class power.”This week, Nat, Jonno & I (Anna) decided to focus a bit more on the way that these dynamics operate in the specific conditions of settler colonialism, especially here in so-called australia. We're engaging with these topics as settlers, living uninvited on unceded Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander lands, and this is perhaps part of why we are so interested in the way that crises operate as key moments in which settlers are brought into new forms of colonial complicity. In particular, we are digging into a concept that we've been talking about for a few years now: the idea of “crisis colonialism.” We use this as a shorthand way to think about how settler colonial states use periods of crisis - economic depressions, world wars, ecological disasters - as fuel for settler colonial nation-building. In listening back to and editing this week's episode, I realised (largely thanks to a generative conversation with Dr. Jamal Nabulsi, whose incendiary and vital work you can find here and here) that a lot of what we're thinking about in this episode is affect - how people feel during crises, and how those collective emotions are operationalised and weaponised for a variety of political projects. This is a key part of both “disaster capitalism” and “disaster communism,” which we dig into in more detail at the beginning of this episode. But affect is also an important part of our analysis of “crisis colonialism,” and especially the way that settler colonies use moments of crisis to manufacture and secure settler consent for colonial governance through a rotating set of strategies, ranging from fear-based moral panics through to the construction of ideas of “mateship” and community. So in this week's episode, we're looking closer at these dynamics. How exactly do settler colonial states take advantage of periods of crisis? How do these moments become repurposed as fuel for nation-building? How does “securitisation” and policing fit into this process? And as settlers who are engaged in communities of struggle and committed to disrupting settler colonialism… how can we ensure that our collective efforts in these moments don't become fuel for the colonial project that caused the crisis in the first place? This is a big, juicy episode, which means that we talk about (or reference) a bunch of important scholarship that helps us to understand the origins of colonial racial capitalism and the “disaster” horizon of the present. In kicking off with some belated “definitional work,” as Nat puts it, we start by sketching out a working understanding of “disaster capitalism.” We continue our chat about Naomi Klein's 2007 “The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism and her formative analysis of the way that corporations and states alike use periods of disaster, or “shocks,” to cultivate new “frontiers” to exploit. Klein talks about a number of examples of this phenomenon: from the ways that the destructive impacts of “natural disasters” like the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami can be used to create the conditions for massive land grabs and accelerated privatisation and development under the guise of “reconstruction”; through to the construction of an entire fear-based industry of “homeland security” after the 9/11 terror attacks in the US. We follow this with a very brief chat about Antony Loewenstein's (2015) Disaster Capitalism: Making a Killing out of Catastrophe, where he expands and updates Klein's analysis to trace the diverse ways that disasters have become “big business,” looking at - as he puts it - the way that “companies cash in on or­ganized misery in a hidden world of privatized detention centers, militarized private security, aid profiteering, and destructive mining.” A thread that we allude to in the podcast but don't extend is that these works are both interested in the affective impact of disasters on populations: the way that the confusion and “shock” of these events can be quickly turned into fear and suspicion which takes root within the established furrows of colonialism, racism and white supremacy; and which forms the basis of a new economy of privatised security, mass incarceration, and surveillance. Competing against this economy of fear, however, is a counter-economy of generosity, care and radical love that also takes root during disasters. We briefly return to Nick Southall's brilliant account of “disaster communism,” discussed at length in last week's show. We then turn our attention to the “permanent crisis” of settler colonialism, a phrase drawn from Robin D G Kelley's 2017 piece “Crisis: Danger, Opportunity & The Unknown,” in which he describes how colonial racial capitalism “produces something akin to a permanent state of crisis” because it is “built on fictions that must be constantly shored up, not for its victims but for those who stand to benefit.” We trace these contradictory fictions all the way back to the emergence of penal colonialism as a response to the crisis of prison overcrowding in Europe, drawing on the work of Michel Foucault, Cedric Robinson, Walter Rodney and Sylvia Federici to emphasise that penal colonialism was both a form of, and a factory for, crisis-management techniques. Finally, we reflect on the many, violent fictions that have been required to enable and sustain the settler colonial project in so-called australia. We draw here on the incredible body of work by First Nations scholars, including Mununjahli & South Sea Islander scholar Chelsea Watego, Darumbal and South Sea Islander scholar and journalist Amy McQuire, Amangu Yamatji theorist Crystal McKinnon, Yuin scholar and criminologist Amanda Porter, Meintagk & Tanganekald scholar Irene Watson, Gumbaynggirr historian Gary Foley and Goenpul scholar Aileen Moreton-Robinson (among many others!) to understand the foundational contradictions of settler colonialism, and why they create the conditions of “permanent crisis” here in so-called australia.From here, I draw out a point that I explore in my PhD thesis (supervised by Chelsea Watego, David Singh, Liz Strakosch & Alissa Macoun), in which I argued that Indigenous peoples' unceded sovereignty and persistent resistance to colonisation represents a foundational and irresolvable contradiction for settler colonial states, which renders them constantly on the precipice of political crisis. This foundational crisis leads settler colonial states to develop robust and sophisticated techniques of crisis-management, ranging from repressive apparatus of policing, prisons, surveillance and punitive systems of state control; through to piecemeal liberal concessions, reforms, and promises of “inclusion.” So what does this mean for how we approach the coming storm? We end this episode with some reflections on how we can build our collective ability to resist colonial complicity: how to refuse the promise of liberal reform; how to reject all attempts to narrow our care, grief and rage to those deemed “grievable” by the colonial state; and how we might work to align ourselves instead with everyone, everywhere, who is fighting to dismantle the colonial capitalist death machinery that causes the “permanent crisis” of the present.

Holly is not a professional gardener. She is a writer, editor and podcaster who recently made a sea change, moving outside of a city for the first time in her life which has given her the space (mental, not necessarily geographical) to take on what she describes as her first true hobby... gardening. And boy is she glad she found it! Holly is the Executive Editor at Mamamia and a familiar voice on Mamamia Out Loud as well as her new podcast MID. Holly's fifth novel, He Would Never, is set for release in April 2025. Holly credits Therapy Lettuce for its positive impact on her mental well-being. Holly lives, writes and gardens south of Sydney on the lands of the Jerrinja and Wandi-Wandandian people, on the Yuin nation with her partner, Brent, and their two teenage children.   Before we chat about Therapy Lettuce, Emily and Maddie are drinking a Palomoa (tequila, grapefruit, yum yum). Emily's discovered perennial leeks. She's obsessed with her begonia, and is recommending you check out and/or try to be more like Joe's Connected Garden in South Australia.  We're both intruiged by our mate Gemma's Pleach (yep - a plum peach interspecies!).  Maddie and Emily recommend the walking onion, growing potatoes, and the hardenbergia to Holly, while Holly reciprocates and recommends Virginia La Trioli's 'Friday Night Fog' (Two nips vodka, One nip Cointreau, Half a lime - optional ruby red grapefruit juice.)   

Murray van der Veer is a filmmaker and storyteller whose work delves into the intersections of Australia's environment, its First Peoples, and the enduring legacy of colonisation. Murray creates powerful films exploring cultural resilience, environmental stewardship, and the complex relationships forged during colonisation through his company, Moving Words and Pictures.A key project for Murray is Yarning on Country, a program co-designed with his collaborator, Wayne Carberry, a Yuin Walbunja man with a deep connection to culture and community. Together, they are crafting a film and cultural journey to support the spiritual and emotional well-being of a group of local Aboriginal men, many of whom are reconnecting with their heritage for the first time. Wayne's perspective will feature prominently in the discussion, highlighting his journey of Yuin fishing traditions, his love of the sea, and his vision for creating spaces where culture and healing intersect.

Australia and its legal profession are embracing diversity more than ever before. Here, one Indigenous law student reflects on her experience interning with a BigLaw firm and how others can put themselves forward for more and better opportunities. In this episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with McCabes intern Lara Jash, a Yuin and Kamilaroi woman, about how and why she came to study law and her experience in the profession thus far, the internship program she is undertaking with one of the nation's biggest law firms and what it entails, and the broader perspective the internship has offered her into the promotion of diversity in the legal profession. Jash also discusses her perception of the experience of Indigenous law students, the sense of isolation that many feel and how best to overcome it, the need to put one's self out there and be “bubbly”, how best to put one's self forward for recognition and advancement, why more law firms should champion diversity for Indigenous Australians, and her optimism that the profession can continue to progress on such matters.

Inaugural Episode: An interview with Melanie Briggs In this inaugural episode of Birth Time: the podcast, we have a yarn with Aboriginal midwife legend Melanie Briggs. For those who have seen Birth Time: the documentary, you will know that we interviewed Melanie about the Birthing on Country Project and Waminda. We catch up with Mel to find out where things are at since the release of the doco. Melanie is an Aboriginal woman, mother of two and midwife. She is a descendant of the Dharawal and Gumbaynggirr peoples, living on Wandandian country within the Yuin nation. Melanie is a senior midwife and Birthing on Country Project Officer at Waminda, which is a Women's Health and Welfare Aboriginal Corporation. Waminda is Aboriginal-led and community controlled, and guided by the principles of self-determination. Melanie was the first endorsed Aboriginal midwife in NSW, and the second endorsed Aboriginal midwife in Australia. We talk with Mel about Birthing on Country (BoC), which is a continuation of thousands of years of knowledge and practice, which provides holistic maternal, child and family health care that embeds cultural integrity and safety during pregnancy, labour, birth and postnatal care. BoC is about Aboriginal women from community led by Elders and Aunties, to taking back control for their Minga's (mums) to birth healthy beautiful Gudjaga's (children) in a safe space that is centred around culture and then throughout the continuation of Minga's and Gidjaga's life cycle.

If you've just found your way to our podcast and you're jumping in fresh, welcome to Episode 1.4 of the Justice for Palestine Magandjin podcast. This podcast aims to archive the ongoing movement for Palestinian liberation as it unfolds on the unceded lands of the Yuggera, Yugarapul, Jagera, Turrbal and Yugumbeh peoples, across so-called brisbane and the surrounding cities of south east queensland. In this episode, Globalise the Intifada, we pick up where we left off in Episode 1.3, by paying attention to the power and practice of Indigenous solidarity as it connects the struggle for Palestinian liberation with other movements against colonial occupation and exploitation in all its forms. As we listen back to speeches from rallies and public meetings, to interviews and discussions, we hear activists and organisers drawing clear connections between the intersecting genocidal systems of colonialism, capitalism, racism, heteropatriarchy, transphobia, and ableism that are operating with such destructive consequences in this moment. We open this episode with reflections from First Nations organisers on this continent, who find clear material and ideological connections between the experiences and struggles on this continent, and those unfolding through unthinkable violence in Gaza. We then trace the connections being drawn through the Justice for Palestine movement as they criss-cross the globe, creating the conditions of possibility for a mass solidarity movement grounded in the deep understanding that colonialism cannot be ended anywhere until it is uprooted everywhere. In order of voices in this episode, you'll hear Muslim solidarity activist and Queensland Muslim Inc. organiser Binil Mohideen, followed by President of the Australian Palestine Advocacy Network, Nasser Mashni, and then Justice for Palestine Magandjin organisers Malaak and Remah. Then you'll hear excerpts from Darumbal and South Sea Islander academic, journalist and writer Dr. Amy McQuire, First Nations poet and writer Cheryl Leavy, Noonuccal Ngugi writer and rapper Ethan Enoch, Mununjahli and South Sea Islander Professor Chelsea Watego, Palestinian writer, academic and organiser Dr. Jamal Nabulsi, Gamillaroi Kooma podcaster and activist Boe Spearim, and Yuin community organiser and current President of the Black People's Union, Kieren Stewert-Assheton. Next up, you'll hear Birri Gubba & Wanjiriburra activist and socialist organiser Sam Woripa Watson, Nasser Mashni again, then diaspora Tamil organiser, poet, musician and Greens candidate for Mayor of Brisbane, Jonathan Sriranganathan, followed by academic, writer and Afghan community organiser, Dr. Mujib Abid, (Jonathan Sriranganathan again), then diaspora Arab poet, writer and youth worker Lamisse Hamouda. Rounding out the episode, you'll hear Dr. Jamal Nabulsi again, followed by Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi, Black feminist abolitionist academic and organiser Prof. Andrea Ritchie, Palestinian student and organiser Malaak Seleem, Binil from QMI, and finally, a short reminder from Palestinian poet and high school student Dania. As always, this podcast is produced and recorded on unceded Jagera & Turrbal country. Our deepest respects to the rightful owners of these lands, and to all First Nations peoples listening.

Scientist and historian Dr. Danielle Clode returns to discuss her extraordinary 2002 book, Killers in Eden and the documentary that followed in 2004 that explored the unique cooperative relationship between a pod of orcas and their human whaling partners in a small coastal town in New South Wales. Building upon the historic relationship between the aboriginal Yuin people and the killer whale which are viewed as Yuin ancestors, beginning in the early 1800s, European whalers in the town of Eden spared the seasonally returning predators in favor of teaming with them to hunt migrating humpback, blue, and fin whales. Much like a pack of dogs, the orcas would roundup, wear down, and trap the passing massive baleen whales towards the waiting humans and their small boats in the bay. At night, the orcas would even swim towards the shore to slap their tail flukes and alert the whalers that prey was passing near. The improbable interspecies cooperation was based upon the "Law of the Tongue" in which humans would leave whale carcasses anchored in the bay so that the orcas could feed on the preferred baleen whale parts such as the lips and tongue. After a few days, the whalers would haul the rest of the whale to shore to harvest the blubber for whale oil. This unlikely cooperation lasted decades until the end of whaling in the early 20th century. Animal Care Software

In regions worst-hit by Australia's Black Summer bushfires, a rebirth is happening. Not just the green shoots bursting from the blackened trees, but the reawakening of ancient knowledge. On sacred land of the Yuin people, cultural fire is being reintroduced to protect endangered koalas, and bring the land back to life.

In the forests surrounding Biamanga, a sacred mountain for the Yuin people of south-eastern Australia, traditional indigenous fire practitioners are preparing to bring fire back into the landscape. Not the raging fires that threatened to destroy it in the deadly Black Summer bushfires of 2019, but cool fires that will help protect and revitalise the land and help restore habitat for the elusive population of koalas who have survived in this forest against the toughest of odds.

About a third of young people follow a 'finfluencer', and heaps of them actually change their financial behaviour as a result. But now Australia's corporate watchdog ASIC is cracking down on people who share unlicensed financial advice on social media. If they don't shut down, they could cop a $1 million fine or even jail time. Plus, there's so much content circulating about the war between Russia and Ukraine. So how do you work out what's real, and what's propaganda? And we chat to Rabbitohs star, Bundjalung and Yuin man Cody Walker. He opens up about the challenges he's faced - grief, injury, isolation - while trying to make it in the NRL. Guests: A/Prof. Matt Sussex, ANU Dr Angel Zhong, RMIT

Blessed Witchmas, pagan people! Welcome to the final episode of the Witchcast for 2021 - though there may be a couple of surprise specials popping up over the break! It’s been a wild ride of a year, but here in the sonic sacred circle you can find an enchanted sanctuary full of magick, great vibes, fascinating witchy stories and uplifting songs to make your pagan heart sing. For this episode, Lucy dives into the pagan origins of Christmas, from Krampus to Mithras and very unseemly medieval revelry. Then it’s all about the occult symbology of The Green Knight, a new(ish) film by David Lowery that some are calling a masterpiece. The film centres in many ways around the tension between Christianity and paganism - and it’s set at Christmas! It’s a rich, dream-like meditation of a film, packed with magickal symbols and Lucy breaks it all down - including on how the pentacle represents five sets of soooo many witchy and knightly values. Then there are readings for you all - right before Lithmas (Litha and Christmas) so enjoy that little gift - better still, get your cards out and gift yourself a reading, witchy one! Songs are The Feast of Krampus by S.J. Tucker, the Holly and the Ivy by Loreena McKennit and Have Yourself a Faerie Little Solstice by Marya Stark. The Witchcast acknowledges the Yuin people, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which the Witchcast is recorded, and pays respect to their Elders past, present and future and their connection to land, sea and community. The Witchcast extends that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Lucy wants to thank and praise all the Patreon supporters who are legends, one and all; the producer of the Witchcast, Shayne Brian, for his magick week in week out; Georgia Allison for the beautiful imagery; and each and every person who listens - You are loved. Never forget - your magick is real! If you love the show, then please leave a review or rating on iTunes - it would be so appreciated and it makes a true difference!

Merry Meet beautiful witchy people. In this moving episode of the Witchcast Lucy speaks with Ngarigo Buhlung artist Sal Lavallee about their precious bond with the Elders, their Yuin ancestry, the spirits of the land, and Country. Sal is an activist, an artist, a healer, meditation teacher and a Witch who has walked the very edges between life and death. Throughout this beautiful, heart-opening interview Sal shares deeply of the power and magick of that connection to Country and to Language. Their deep listening to the spirit people, insights into ritual on land and how to go about this with respect, and how their witchcraft, magick, ancestry and art all interweave with and nourish each other is an inspiration. I want to acknowledge that Sal’s grandmother, Rae Solomon-Stewart, passed away after this interview was recorded. Sal’s beloved Nan is spoken of throughout the interview. It is with deepest respect that the passing of this Elder is felt and recognised. Please note that people who are passed are spoken of in this interview.

Blessings, friends! It is the turning of the Wheel once again and we arrive at Ostara in the Southern Hemisphere and all that the Spring Equinox brings to us in the lengthening of the Light. And if you are in the North of the world, the Autumnal Equinox of Mabon sees the descent, or the fall, into the Darker time beginning. Introspection and insight, blossom and rebirth, all are sacred on the Witches wheel. Lucy explores a neanderthal bone flute made from a cave bear bone - you can hear its haunting sound during the show - shares how to get a spiritual book or card deck published, discusses a tricky side of Pagan parenting - what to do when your child's Tarot cards get confiscated at school… The Witchcast celebrates a Yuin artists' ancestral Dreaming entry into the Louvre, wonders whether the Scottish Witches murdered during the hatred of the Witch Trials will finally get an official pardon (a lawyer thinks they should and is leading the crusade) and reads the cards for you working with the amazing and very beautiful Oracle of the Hidden Worlds, with stunning art by the talented Gilbert Williams. It's a show rich with music as always - Damh the Bard and Wendy Rule take us through the blessings of Mabon and Ostara with sacred song.
