This week, stories about the bewitching power of cats, from spiritual companions to catalysts of chaos!



Running After Lulu

In our first story, Mike answers a call to adventure, or rather, makes one himself. 

Produced by Mike Williams. This story was originally commissioned by transom.org. For more stories by Mike visit mikewilliams.com.au.



Meow To Be by Wing Kuang

The first time when Wing saw Alexander, she knew she was meant to meet him. They had a great time together, but it was also their destiny to farewell each other. Would it still be counted as a fate, if it was just temporary?

Producer: Wing Kuang 

Supervising Producer: Mell Chun

This week we feature two Australian-Turkish writers, who ruminate on the topic of belonging, home and immigration.

In their distinctive creative ways, Ela Pinar and Eda Gunaydin unpack the confusion of feeling homesick for a land that was never truly ‘home’ to begin with.

First, Ela tells the story of her journey to Turkey, a place she does and doesn't call home. 

Find Ela’s artist page on instagram at @elapinar__

This story was written, recited and produced by Ela Pinar

Sound design was by Ramon Briant

The Supervising Producer was Phoebe Adler-Ryan

This story features music by Koray Kiliç



20:16 - Discussions on ‘Root and Branch’

Then, host Mads speaks to award-winning essayist and scholar Eda Gunaydin, to explore her understanding of home and homeland.

This week, stories about breaking the rules of modern society.

And just a heads up - it’s the punk episode - so there might be some swears.



Please Come to My Show

In our first story, we’re gonna hear from five people looking back at their young, punk selves, and how the politics, music, and spirit of this community has continued to shape their lives. 

That story was produced by Mel Bakewell with production assistance by Phoebe Adler-Ryan.

Thank you to all of the contributors to that piece, including Tim Steward.

A shout out to Charlie Fern and Jasper Craig-Adams, hosts at FBi Radio. You can catch Charlie on the Sunday Overhang and Jasper on Real to Reel Wednesdays.



The Ballad of Gary Bamford

Sometimes we encounter people who are like a portal to another world, who show us a completely new way to be. In our next story, Laura shares how a chance encounter with a man at a grocery store changes her life unexpectedly. 

That story was produced by Laura Luck. Find more of her work at lauraluck.com

The Supervising Producer was Dan Semo. 

Featuring music by Gary Bamford.
