In Mexico and across Latin America, and Australia, a quinceañera is a celebration of turning fifteen. It’s usually a party, usually for a girl and you might have seen a version of one in Jane the Virgin, One Day at a Time, or even Sweet 15: Quinceañera. But there’s much more to this tradition than just pastel dresses and high heels. Though there are those, too. Doctor Gabriela Coronado is a Mexican-Australian anthropologist whose areas include the intercultural complexities of cultures. She’s been to a few quinces.

Quinceañeras (Gabriela Coronado) — SUPPORTER DRIVE SPECIAL

People say some stupid stuff when they think they're among friends. "All Jews" are this, maybe. Or "all Muslims" are that. Do you confront casual racism when you hear it, in private places like the dinner table, from family or friends? Or do you bite your tongue? Two Sydney women weren't sure that straight up confrontation would work all by itself, so they helped write a play that worked it. Nur Alam and Yvonne Perczuk are part of the writing collective Abe's Babes, which wrote the play The Laden Table about casual racism around Sydney's Muslim and Jewish dinner tables. Links for this episode: Follow Abe's Babes on Facebook to keep up with future productions of the play.Bakehouse Theatre's production of the Laden Table has a short video of the production.Some short explainers, if you want to know more about the Nakba and the Holocaust. Songs from Dinner Table Racism: Poyeyu (feat. Mariela Gerez) — SelvaMir — MurcofKravchenko – Fair (Guitar Version) — Richard Patterson (Little Odessa soundtrack)The Song From Venus — Stephin MerrittCornfield Chase — Hans Zimmer (Interstellar soundtrack)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

War in the news is kind of hard to watch. Conflict gets presented like sports — two sides: one wins, one loses. Advocates of peace journalism think that war can be covered better than this. And, by reporting more to us than just a zero-sum game, it can offer ways of dealing with conflict that aren’t just about violence and who’s committing it. Zainab Abdul-Nabi is a former journalist who’s especially interested in using peace journalism to look at Al Jazeera’s coverage of the Bahrain pro-democracy uprising in 2011, during the “Arab Spring”.  Links from this episode: Zainab’s article looking at Bahrain’s uprising through the lens of Peace Journalism.

Peace Journalism (Zainab Abdul-Nabi)

Almost three hundred years ago, a woman called Mary Toft was interrogated a bunch of doctors in London. She was interrogated after having given birth to a litter of rabbits. Or so she claimed. But, in that era, one of the strangest things about the case wasn’t just the rabbits: it was that doctors — “male midwives” — were muscling into the giving birth business.

Telling One Frog From Another (Jodi Rowley)

John Foot

In 1978, Italy passed a law to shut down its Asylums. The asylums were ageing, horrfying institutions that weren’t so great at looking after people. Two people at the centre of the change were Franco Basaglia and his wife, Franca Ongaro Basaglia.  Historian John Foot accidentally discovered this story at a documentary screening, and wrote a book on them. He explains why what they did is such a big thing. Links from this episode: John’s book is available in all the places. The documentary that moved John was called San Clemente, by  Raymond Depardon and Sophie Ristelhueber. If you’re interested in how this ‘deinstutionalisation’ works with current mental health services, one of the best round ups is from the US (covering their system, but similar dilemmas). Of course, it’s by John Oliver.

Lars Rutz grew up in the East Berlin bohemian scene in communist Germany in the 80s. Like a lot of people in the East, he wanted to leave. But East Germany was a police state, with an ever-present spy agency, the Stasi. What is it like to try to escape a place like that? And what is it like to read what the spies wrote about you, years later? Links from this episode: The Stasi really did have a library of smells. Snowden really did have a statue in Berlin, along with Chelsea Manning and Julian Assange. Though they started in Berlin, the three statues are part of an art project, Anything to Say, which is touring the world. Lars' lawyer was Wolfgang Vogel, who was the other lawyer in Bridge of Spies. (Not the one played by Tom Hanks.) Lars was suggested, accidentally, by Cassie Findlay. Much of this story was originally presented by Lars at a talk for the Australian Society of Archivists. Songs in this episode:Love is Blindness — Jack White (Great Gatsby soundtrack)Brain Retractor — Nick Cave &amp; Warren Ellis10 Sola Gratia (Part 2) — SQÜRL (Only Lovers Left Alive soundtrack)La Valse Des Vieux Os — Yann Tiersan (Amelia soundtrack)Engel — Laurent Pettigrand (Faraway, So Close! soundtrack)Martha's Dream — Nick Cave &amp; Warren EllisOily Night — Tom WaitsChasing Down Sadness — Michael Giacchino (Inside Out soundtrack)Song For Jesse — Nick Cave &amp; Warren EllisOs Quindins De Ya Ya — Stanley Black (Strictly Ballroom soundtrack)Drive Away — Thomas Newman (Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events soundtrack)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Reading What Spies Write About You (Lars Rutz)

Kristen Hawkes

Why is menopause a thing? Only three species really do it: short-finned pilot whales, killer whales and humans beings. It’s biologically strange. And it gives us another biologically strange thing: grandmas. Dr Kristen Hawkes (University of Utah) is the lead proponent of the Grandmother Hypothesis, which says that grandmas became a thing in human evolution because having them was a pretty good deal, evolutionarily speaking.   Links from this episode: Listen to Kristen’s full lecture at the Science Festival at Sydney Uni’s Sydney Ideas podcast. (She’s introduced by local collaborator, Peter Kim.) The Atlantic also has a bit more about the Grandmother Hypothesis. If you just want to know about other animals that do go through menopause, National Geographic has you covered.

The Unreliability of Witness Testimony (Celine Van Golde)

Ross Coleman

They're pretty much all guts, foot, teeth and maybe a bit of shell. Snails, limpets, octopuses or giant squid: they're all a kind of mollusc. You'll find one in almost every ecosystem in the world.  Sydney University's Professor Ross Coleman specialises in limpets and knows all his molluscs pretty well. He takes us from the Liverpool docks, to Blackwattle Bay, to the weirdest of mollusc sex. Links from this episode: The lowdown on molluscs of all kinds.

Molluscs (Ross Coleman)

This episode talks about domestic violence in the LGBTIQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bixexual, Trans, Intersex, Queer) community. It's probably not appropriate for children and could be a trigger for some listeners. If you or someone you know is affected by domestic violence you can talk to someone on 1 800 RESPECT. In an emergency, call the police on 000. Lots more options further down these show notes. Over the course of the last year Australia seems to have paid more attention to the issue of domestic violence than it ever has before. But, even so, many people are unaware that this isn't just an issue for the mainstream community. It's something that happens in the LGBTIQ community as well.  Moo Baulch is the CEO of Domestic Violence NSW. She'll walk us through what often happens and what you can do about it.

You can find more information on same sex domestic violence at ACON or Domestic Violence NSW, which has a list of many more  services you can contact.

Making Newpapers for Children (Saffron Howden)

Matt Huynh

It seems a bit like comic books are everywhere these days: dominating our screens from Iron Man to Jessica Jones. But this isn't the first time that there's been a comic book boom. And it's not always as easy to ride that wave, as an artist, as it might seem. Comic artist Matt Huynh has had a lot of success at this comic-making thing. First in Australia, now in New York. We're also joined by Marcelo Baez, who witnessed the 90s comics craziness first hand. Links from this episode: So much of Matt's art is on his site; but you'll need to check out SBS to read the Boat. Have a look at Marcelo's work on his site. There's some Diabla artwork to see as well. Frank Miller wrote and drew things like the Dark Knight Returns, 300, Sin City and Daredevil. The Daredevil story Born Again was one of the comics Matt recommends getting started reading with. The other comic he recommended was Marjane Satrapi's Chicken with Plums, which is first date approved by his girlfriend. Some of the Australian comics mentioned in the episode were Cyberswine, Da 'n Dill, Hairbutt the Hippo, Squadron Supremeand Tim McEwan's Greener Pastures. Matt drew us a red homage to McEwan's comic for FBi's upcoming Brush with Fame art auction for 2016:  Songs from this episode: Girl — Beck Strange Nostalgia For The Future — Cut Copy Golden Valves — Orkestra Del Sol Phat Planet — Leftfield Boardwalks — Little may Black Wax — DananananaykroydSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Making it Big and Making it Small in Comics (Matt Huynh)

São Paolo has a traffic problem. But while the cars stand still, motoboys (and motogirls) ride up the "corridor of death" between gridlock. Over two hundred thousand of them. It's an incredibly dangerous job. Spanish artist, Antoni Abad gave the motoboys a voice atmegafone.net in the early days of the mobile internet and will tell you all about them, from the favela to the app economy. He knows his motoboys. Links from this episode: The motoboy section of Megafone.net is still running, the better part of a decade later.
