It's our birthday! The World Awaits turns one, and to celebrate, we're talking the world's oldest and rarest cultural traditions, where to drink martinis and we even have a great giveaway!
Author Eliot Stein talks about how he travelled around the globe in search of people who are maintaining some of the world’s oldest and rarest cultural traditions for his book, Custodians of Wonder. He meets a Peruvian bridge weaver, Sweden's last night watchman, a 27th-generation West African griot and a woman making the world's rarest pasta.
What's a birthday without a trip down memory lane? We take a look back at our favourite eps and how we got into radio and podcasting.
And for our birthday, we’re giving you the presents: drop us a line at hello@theworldawaits.au and tell us your favourite episode, for a chance to win a double pass to Yarra Valley’s winter wine festival, on the weekend of the winter solstice, Shortest Lunch shortestlunch.com.au
Finally, celebrate World Martini Day with a martini (or two) - Garden Street Gin club’s mixologist George Bekarian recommends Bar Planet in Newtown, Bobby’s Free in Barcelona or his own bar, Cardea, in Sydney’s Barangaroo. See gardenstreet.com
