We’ve heard about bread making, knitting and self care during lockdown. But now, a year and a half into the pandemic, we really have exhausted our options. In this episode we dig deep into existing rituals from the ‘beforetimes’, activities we’re using to keep us going. 

In this episode we talk to Stephanie Bull, one of the writers of the Good Weekend’s weekly quiz. She gives us insight into how the quiz gets written, how it keeps us together, and answers, once and for all, if half points are allowed. We also talk to Danielle O’Donohue, who has turned to Minecraft as a way to escape the 600 weeks of lockdown in Sydney. Be warned, though, she plays with the sound down - is that ok? Additional music in the episode, ‘Minecraft”, “Sweden”, “Wet Hands” by C418, and “Good Morning Mr Sun” by Tom Smith.

This is series about the sounds of lockdown - the sounds we can hear, the sounds we miss, the sounds that are new and the sounds that are old. Each episode features people in lockdown considering the sounds around them - including the sounds that they want to come back, and maybe some they don't. Made by Nina Longfellow (producer, writer, editor) and Liz Giuffre (exec producer) - recorded and created on Aboriginal land, land that was never ceded.
