This week, we’re sharing the stories recorded at Strong Stories of the Weak. A live storytelling event put on with the help of Word Travels for their 2023 Story Week.

Six people with powerful stories let us into their foibles, moments of vulnerability and minor catastrophes, with stunning scoring by local composer and artist Elizabith Jigalin.

We’re bringing you three tales this week, and you’ll be able to catch the rest next week in part two.

First up, All the Best host Madhuraa kicked off the night with a personal narrative of self-discovery.

Written & performed by Madhuraa Prakash.

Cover Story

Jared weaves a fictional tale about the glare of fame and the toils of being the least popular member of a boy band.

Written & performed by Jared Richards.

All The Best is for new Australian storytelling. Hear from a Melbourne-based cannibal, how the Australian Wallabies used theatre workshops to improve their game, anxiety attacks in a Tantric sex class, and what the shopping centre Santa Claus is really thinking, all on All The Best. 


We're a weekly radio show and podcast produced at FBi Radio in Sydney in association with SYN and Triple R in Melbourne, and broadcast nationally via the Community Radio Network. We’ve been telling stories in a variety of forms since 2011, picking a theme each week and using short form documentary, personal narrative, interviews, and spoken word to bring you the best from across Australia.
