Love, Consciousness, Wisdom and Culture
Hello, and welcome to another installment of The Bona Fide Hour, albeit with the last installment being 121 days ago - we're with you now and here to discuss love, consciousness, wisdom and culture. The impetus for this episode came from a desire to unpack these commonly used words with a personal touch. Everyone seems to have a broad and shared understanding of what these words mean, but within this macro-understanding lies a personal definition we all have for love, consciousness, wisdom and culture. Commune with us as Bill and I seek to unravel the mysticisms of this timeless quartet of words.
And new theme music ! It's so beautiful,, see below for music credits :)

A back and forth ping-pong conversation, Sol and I talk about the thingd we find funny, what we don't find funny, how humour is used in particular spatial and temporal contexts, and also how we utilise humour throughout our day to day to traverse this truly untamed world.

Townsvillecore and Irukandji jellyfish
Welcome, welcome, welcome to a re-installment of The Bona Fide Hour. This week's episode centers on the de facto capital of the Deep North, Townsville. There are many conceptions and misconceptions about the tropical village, and I'm joined by the lovely Nathan Hurdle as our thoughts coalesce towards geography, music scenes, Irukandji jellyfish and more. Our discussion is also tinged with our experiences with Australian cities of a similar or larger size, and we engage with the experiences of other cities to further contexualise the aspects of the city that constitutes Townsville to its core. I hope you enjoy!

Lost in the sands of Perth
Back this week and brought to you from Boorloo / Perth for a very special Bona Fide Hour. This week I'm joined by Chakris (with lovely intermittent input from Sez as well) to discuss the scintillating oasis that is Boorloo. From the short time that I've spent here, I find Perth to be a resoundingly unique and welcoming place. From the scenery to the people, there are so many facets of the city and its surrounds that envelop you with a serene hospitality. Unlock your ear canals, listen in, and commune with us as we discuss the isolation of the city, particular suburban identities, the built environment and much, much more.

The Slay Agenda
Slay the house down boots with us this week as we delve into a fierce discussion on the slay agenda! What is the slay agenda you ask? The slay agenda is a moment, it's a lifestyle, and it's an experience that has forever altered the continuum between queer and straight speech, blurring the lines between the online and offline. Sashay away from the comfort of your current conversations and slay your way into Reuben and I's riveting conversation from drag race imperialism to the yassification of Jaja Binks.
