Through the Deakin University Indigenous Knowledge Systems Lab, we have unlikely, borderline seditious and kind of inappropriate yarns with surprising people about how an Indigenous complexity science lens can be applied to solving the world's most wicked problems. There's gold at the margins, but almost no trigger warnings, so enter at your peril. Intro music by The Murri Ghibli Fangirls, a really long intro because we're too afraid to tell black women to stop singing. Rant episodes intro b ...

A podcast to challenge your assumptions and inspire you with ideas from the periphery, the margins. We live in times of unprecedented change. The systems - financial, social, ecological, environmental - on which we depend are stretched to breaking point. Professional, personal and organisational ‘norms’ increasingly less normal. We are in transition. The ideas to shape tomorrow exist today at the margins. What might we learn from ancient wisdom, eastern philosophy or indigenous thinking? Or ...

Rishikes Siva takes biomimicry to the next level with Lunar Punk rhizomatic riffs, and we weave through arboretal IK at the margins of regenerative sexiness, while the brains of Elders are uploaded to the clouds and we wait to see what that rain will look like (while a tiny part of me dies inside). If more than half of that didn't make sense to you…

Wanted to yarn with Roma, Scots, Native American, Aboriginal, queer, neuro-divergent, unhoused and trans folks about fluid border work facilitating norms of access, and about finding identity in ancestral paths rather than homelands, since global populations are becoming increasingly itinerant. But that panel would be complicated and boring, as mos…

Emily McAvan queers up our ongoing narratives of embassy and quarantine as kin making rather than exclusion, as we dig deep into the foundational spiritual narratives of Purity, Toxicity, Pollution and Contagion that dominate all policy and practice around the most explosive issues of our time - immigration, medicine and wellness, environmental iss…

They say leap and the net appears, but Jack Manning Bancroft at the Indigenous Knowledge Systems Lab is riffing on some emergent para-financial systems that offer something better to splash into, a soft landing for everyone.

Thought experiment: what would it take to naturalise money in the biosphere, in the same way that invasive plants and animals can come into harmony with ecosystems over time and with good custodianship of land? Indigenous folks and allies of The Indigenous Commons, from around the globe: Parul Punjabi Jagdish, Nawi Flores, Abdul Semakula, Suzanna B…

Where do new ideas come from? Your mind regenerates from the outside in, teased to life by artists, innovators, agitators playing on the margins. Their work inspires yours. This is the spark, the stuff of new ideas. As with your mind, so too an old city. Berlin in 1992 was a tired place, run dry by 50 years of division, devoid of life, energy and n…

There’s a way of seeing personal growth and transformation as a cycle of rupture, descent, emergence, and return – an inward journey that challenges us to confront our own demons, integrate different aspects of ourselves, and ultimately find a way to contribute to the collective good.

Embracing discomfort and experiencing emotions to the fullest can give us the guidance needed to navigate positive life changes, even in difficult circumstances. But sometimes those emotions are too difficult or too stark, and so we use things like alcohol to turn down the volume. But by doing so, we dim ourselves. Today, Ben is in conversation wit…

Society is facing a crisis of masculinity, which is leading to harmful behaviour and violence towards women. Many cultures understand the need to initiate boys to men. We, in the west, have lost that understanding, that opportunity. As a consequence, are we inadvertently raising lost boys? Is it time to rediscover initiation? This is some of Sujith…

Exchanging ideas too early and too often hinders innovation, but promoting absurdity in the workplace can lead to new and creative solutions. The workplace shouldn’t simply be a task-focused environment, but a place to nurture our human traits, like our capacity for absurdity.

I've recorded more on this topic (medical disinformation) this month, but the platform AI keeps taking it down - probably because of keywords and the incapacity of machines to know the difference between bunk and debunk. Anyway, my recent research has led me to believe that those radicalised online may be experiencing a similar ontological and psyc…

Brother Arpad Maksay catches up to reflect on our yarn in my new book, and see where we've grown to since then when in comes to violence, public violence, and what it means to train for violence in service of a community, and whether it is possible to do this without ableism and a little bit of soft eugenics. Brother Arlo Davis drops by at the end …

(Double Interrupted) So my friend Tammi Jonas from the Food Sovereignty mob has helped me start reading again and to work on my interrupting problem. I did okay here, and managed to record a whole episode without stepping all over another person's tongue.

Economic growth can be responsible and in service of giving, rather than pure extraction and consumption.

Kisani Upward, Gamilaroi woman, is doing some research on Indigenous responses to natural disasters, specifically bushfires, while I work on my bad habit of interrupting (mostly by excusing it as a 'cultural thing')...

Guy Ritani (Permaqueer activist, Maori science communicator) asks me, "Any whale stuff coming up for you lately?" Hell yes! A hard yarn about radioactive whales, skepticism vs cultural knowledge, what is real vs what is true, trauma, making sense, and discerning between spirit and bullshit. There are conflicts, maintaining both identity and intelle…

There is more to the disinformation being deployed in Australia's referendum (for an Indigenous voice to parliament) than meets the eye. This episode is something of a diatribe. I'm tying together all our true stories of resistance and putting a firewall between them and the fantasies of white supremacists and disgruntled settlers who are co-opting…

The sacred feminine in landscapes rendered profane by moral prudery - we walk these storied paths fearlessly with Manchan Magan in a mythical relation across hemispheres, a vibrant embassy between Ireland and Aboriginal Australia, grieving the loss of Sinead together and celebrating what is emergent in our deadly relation. https://www.instagram.com…

Big mixed up yarn with Steph Beck and Ben Knight, Indigenous views on relational economics and logical fallacies, and where the two meet in cults and guru-generated content.

Pre-made mashed potato and out-of-season avocados won’t last forever. In this second part of Ben’s conversation with James William Harrup, we explore how a drive for perpetual growth and boundless consumption could be linked to an underlying trauma. It looks a lot like addiction, so if we can address that need to consume – and say a fond farewell t…

Yolande Brown and me are doing voice-work and writing for an animated film, and decided to yarn for a vocal warm-up before studio time. Recorded it just in case we said anything worth sharing.
