Man how bloody annoying is it hearing the same podcast ad over and over and over all day long listening to radio these days.
Charlotte Crosby & Cam Daddo and his wife are driving me crazy.
News Corp today launches a eight-part podcast series called Predatory, featuring former NSW police detective Gary Jubelin and actress Madeleine West. In the series, they speak with abuse survivors, campaigners and child sex crime detectives, and explore how the face of predators and paedophiles has changed, especially when it comes to accessing children online. The podcast series is available with a current subscription to News Corp papers like The Australian.
In the first episode, Madeleine alleges she was abused as a small child by a âmonsterâ many times who lived in the same town.
EDIT: Madeleine was on The Project to talk about her experience and the new podcast.
SBSâs Ugly Ducklings podcast returns
The not-so-famous, not-so-pretty delicacies of Italian cuisine returns!
SBSâs first bilingual podcast is back for seconds! Season Two of The Ugly Ducklings of Italian Cuisine (Scarrafoni in Cucina) returns in Italian and English to introduce six new dishes for the adventurous eater such as sea urchin gonads, stew with chocolate and wild boar, and risotto with a stinging weed.
A line-up of new guests will share their expertise in the world of Italian food including award-winning Melbourne chef Alberto Fava, Sicilian food truck owner Pino DâAddelfio, TV chef, author and former Food Director of Australian Womenâs Weekly, Lyndey Milan, and the inimitable queen of TV cooking, Nigella Lawson.
SBS Italian Producer Massimiliano Gugole said the podcast started from a love of weird and wacky food.
âDuring the first season I talked about a typical dish from Verona â pearĂ . Not even people from neighbouring cities knew about it. When they saw a picture, they thought it looked like vomit but I, like all Veronese, love it!â said Gugole.
Looking past the superficial, Season Two of The Ugly Ducklings of Italian Cuisine will delve deeper into how these unique, local dishes became a proudly acquired taste.
âThese dishes are not the celebrities â the pizzas and pastas â but they have strong links to families, towns and history. My intention is to tell their stories,â Gugole said.
âOn Instagram, all food is perfect: perfect framing, perfect garnishes, but my research shows thatâs not what makes food delicious. Nigella Lawson even once said, âbrown food tastes the bestâ.â
Episode three in English features TV cooking royalty Nigella Lawson, who talks about stinging nettle risotto and her special relationship with 98-year-old Italian-British food writer Anna Del Conte. Lawson cites Del Conte as her only culinary influence, apart from her mother. In the Italian version of this episode, we hear from the doyenne herself, Anna Del Conte.
Conte and Lawson join guests including blogger and Instagram sensation Emiko Davies, environmental scientist and sea urchin expert Dr Paul Carnell, Italian food writer Chiara Cajelli, and research scientist Dr Maurizio Rossetto from the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney, as well as restaurateurs from Italy and Australia, university professors, medieval food fanatics and more.
SBS Italian Executive Producer, Magica Fossati, says differences between the Italian and English episodes on the same topic are an interesting by-product of having the same conversation with bilingual guests, but both versions are worth listening to as they complement each other.
âI heard some Italian language teachers recommended our first season to their students because itâs easier to understand and study Italian with English context,â she said.
Both English and Italian speakers can look forward to hearing a fresh perspective on the world of lesser-known Italian dishes in season two, available on the SBS Radio app and SBS Italian website. Episode one launches on February 1, recipes for the dishes featured in the series can also be found on SBS Food.
Mark Allen and David Schwarz (who last hosted sports show The Twilight Zone on 3AW) will launch a new podcast, Couple of Blokes, Couple of Beers, next week. They will go from pub to pub and chat with a few people there.

Respected broadcaster Neil Mitchell Asks Why? in new podcast series
With more than 30 yearsâ experience as one of Australiaâs most successful and respected broadcasters, 3AWâs Neil Mitchell is taking on a new challenge, today launching his new podcast series, âNeil Mitchell Asks Why?â
Produced by 9Podcasts and released every fortnight, the six-part series, Neil Mitchell Asks Why? sees Mitchell sit down with leading Australians from all walks of life, who have something to say, and more importantly, a fascinating story to tell.
The premise of the podcast is based on the very question that Mitchell has become famous for asking: why? Why do people make certain decisions; why do they believe in what they do; why are they who they are⌠and what happened along the way.
This podcast is different to what listeners will find on Mitchellâs daily radio show, with the conversations longer and more detailed, while also being relaxed so that listeners truly get the time to understand each guest. However, as is Mitchellâs style, the conversations could still go anywhere with that one question nobody ever expects.
âIâm looking forward to this immensely. Radio is a superb medium but time can be your enemy. With the podcast I will be able to go into greater length to tease out what is behind a person or an eventâ, said Mitchell.
âAfter a million years of asking questions in radio, TV and newspapers I feel this will give me the chance to ask even more. But there is still one unbreakable rule for guests, whoever they are â they must be interesting.â
Listen to Neil Mitchell Asks Why? every fortnight from Tuesday 21 February, wherever you get your podcasts, and listen to the preview here:
Now itâs the AFLâs turn.

Yumi Stynes hosts SBSâs new podcast âSeenâ
If you can see it â you can be it. But what if you canât see anyone like you?
Eleven high-profile Aussies tell-all to host Yumi Stynes on how they forged a career in the spotlight despite facing racial prejudice, discrimination and a lack of visible role models in SBSâs electrifying new podcast, Seen.
This interview series talks to trailblazers in media, arts and culture, science, sport and beyond about the importance of being seen.
Hosted by writer, TV presenter and podcaster, Yumi Stynes, Seen offers riveting storytelling and personal experiences that help us understand the importance of diversity in media.
âI was so excited to find these wonderful people, and to unfurl their stories as best I could and allow their stories to speak,â Stynes said.
âItâs an important question to ask: are these voices being heard less or not at all because of things beyond their control? Like race, ability or disability, religion. Are they being given fewer opportunities or more obstacles because of that?â
The series chronicles experiences of how it feels to be the first â the first person of your colour, faith, sexual orientation or ability to succeed in your chosen field â and how the world reacts to that success.
Deeply personal and moving stories are told by a stellar line-up of guests including disability activist and writer Hannah Diviney; NITV and Channel 10 star newsreader, Whadjuk Noongar woman Narelda Jacobs; and retired Australian rugby sevens Olympian and trans man Ellia Green.
âIn the podcast Hannah Diviney talks about how as a young girl with cerebral palsy, she used to stare at herself in the mirror for ages because she was worried that if she didnât, she might disappear. She literally couldnât see herself anywhere else, but in the mirror,â Stynes said.
Another astonishing guest on the podcast is writer, activist and broadcaster Yassmin Abdel-Magied who faced an avalanche of online trolling in response to a social media post in 2017.
âYassmin and I have known each other for a few years and when her situation reached a real crisis point, there were a lot of people like me watching in utter dismay, thinking, âThis is what happens to women of colour who are mouthyââ, Stynes said.
âYou donât have to say the wrong thing, you just have to say anything. That interview was like a therapy session for me and a chance for us both to look back and go, âWhat the heck was that?ââ
Stynes hopes the stories from Seen will broaden peopleâs idea of what a diverse and multicultural Australia looks like.
âI think it cracks open the scope of what we view as âAustraliaâ or âAustraliansâ, so if you want to widen your understanding of who makes up the population of this wonderful country then the podcast introduces some inspiring Australians that youâll be glad you met.â
The first episode of Seen is available now on the SBS Audio app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and other podcast apps. Listen to Seen here
Seen is the first new podcast series published since SBSâs recent rebrand to SBS Audio and the launch of their new digital offering. The series was pitched to SBS by podcast agency Audiocraft as part of SBSâs annual podcast call out.

SBS podcast âMy Ramadanâ shares stories of contemporary Australia
