The Retirement Village

Excursions & Adventures - Experiences Outside The Studio

Becs and Indi here, dropping in to say a heartfelt thank you for listening to our seasonal SYN show!

We have ticked off many 'bucket-list' agendas through this show and created a space to catch up with old friends and co-hosts. We hope that this series inspires the next generation of young media makers to share their voices and create content about content and ideas important to them. 

Keep your ears open for a new podcast project we are currently creating ... hint ... it involves a lot of fast cars. 

For now, farewell and thank you !

Mentors & Memories - Growing up personally & professionally at SYN

Shik! Shak! Shok!  - Back in 2019 Becs and Maria Konidaris dreamed up a radio show that shared their love of Europe & Middle-Eastern culture. This was made possible thanks to SYN, as they created Culture Cult, a celebration of the European & Middle-Eastern regions, the people from these places and their contributions to society & culture. 

Today on The Retirement Village, Maria joins Becs to reflect on their program that aired in 2019. 
Catching up with writer & creative Maria, reflecting on our most memorable moments.
Where are they now? Highlighting a couple of Culture Cult special friends including Nadine Lebde (Sydney), Ghyda Helou (Lebanon), Koraly Dimitriadis (Melbourne). 
Culture Cult Finale - the innovation of live content, folk dancing and belly dancing.

Playlist: You'll hear songs in French, Arabic, Greek and Romanian - a sample of our favourite tracks aired on Culture Cult.

You can hear all Culture Cult episodes here: https://omny.fm/shows/culture-cult
