First Wine of the Day 2 featuring Bobby Alu, Beddy Rays and Nick Grivas

"Every time you visit Woodford you leave a different person."This episode was recorded live from the Woodford Folk Festival as part of First Wine of the Day. Harley Breen and co-host Nikki Britton open with one of the most quietly beautiful moments Radio Woodfordia has captured — the story of a she-oak walking stick, a stranger's generosity, and a carving made from a sapling found during a wilderness rites of passage ceremony. It's the kind of story that reminds you why Woodford exists.Poet Nick Grivas then takes the room by storm with his searing and uncomfortably accurate slam piece Chasing Cheap Dopamine, Bobby Alu plays the song that soundtracked the birth of Harley's first child, bars manager Linus Wilson finally explains what orange wine actually is, and the Beddy Rays close out with their very first Woodford performance.This episode is for:Anyone who needs to feel something real todayPeople who've ever been handed an unexpected gift by a strangerAnyone who's checked their phone at least once while listening to thisDive in to hear about:A she-oak walking stick, a family heirloom, and a gift returnedChasing Cheap Dopamine — slam poetry for the accidental cyborg in all of usThe truth about orange wine (and why sediment is your friend)To come to the Woodford Folk Festival and FWOD next year visit: https://woodfordfolkfestival.com/FOR MORE: Bobby Alu: https://www.bobbyalu.com Nick Grivas Liquid Lyrics: https://www.instagram.com/liquid_lyricsBeddy Rays: https://www.beddyrays.com/ Harley Breen: https://www.harleybreen.com.auNikki Britton: https://www.instagram.com/thenikkibrittonCREDITS: Hosts: Harley Breen, Nikki Britton Guests: Nick Grivas, Bobby Alu, Linus Wilson, Beddy Rays Producer: Bree Hickson-Jamieson Executive Producers: Benny Wallington, Georgia Shaw Artwork: Hannah Rose Social Media: Eliza Cowan Assistant: Madeline Corcoran Town Cryer: Ché Pritchard Camera Operators: Amelie Barham, Ben 'Tofty' Toft Editing: Amelie Barham Music by: The East Pointers Recorded on Jinibara Country#RadioWoodfordia #BobbyAlu #NickGrivas #BeddyRays #WoodfordFolkFestival #HarleyBreen #NikkiBritton #SlamPoetry #LivePodcast #WoodfordiaJoin the Woodfordian Citizens:Perks -- Bi-Monthly emails sharing the ins and outs of the world of Woodfordia and the people who keep the heart beating.- Special invites to special events on site at Woodfordia.
