 

This week its all about hobbies!

Tessa joins her mom for a bell-ringing class, and Mike shows us just how collecting honey can be about a lot more than having a sweet tooth.  

 

The bells by Tessa Crozier 

“And you don't pull the rope hard; you pull it gently, but firmly, and get a feel for when it's about to leave on its journey around the frame”

As the years pass,  our parents might get more time to take on new hobbies. You know - gardening, mahjong, reformer pilates, ceramics. When Tessa’s mum retired, she got really into…bellringing. Tessa takes us up into the bell tower.

 

Producer: Tessa Crozier 

Supervising Producers: Zacha Rosen, Felicity Weaver, Mel Bakewell 

Interviewee: Jeanne Crozier

 

100 Jars of Honey by Mike Williams

Mike’s dad is really into bees. He started a curious collection of honey. In this story, Mike cracks the lid on the collection and offers us a taste.  

Written, produced and performed by Mike Williams. 

This story was originally performed as part of a live storytelling night All The Best held at the State Library of New South Wales as part of the series The Library That Made Me.

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.
