This podcast focuses on the ongoing phasing out of single-use plastic in Australia.

Rugby league is back on our TV screens, with the NRL season resuming. The same however can't be said for the Intrust Super Cup, which is the Queensland state rugby league competition. JacDigital's Jarrod Vidler looks at how the competition has been impacted by COVID-19 and the importance of its return. (image courtesy - ipswichjets.com)

Sports fans all around Australia are nervous right now, that's a fact. We don't know which clubs and competitions will survive, and which one’s wont (but we do all have our opinions). Having rugby fall off the Australian sporting landscape in any capacity would be a major loss for this country; it would change the sporting dynamic. Even the most passionate league fan would be somewhat disappointed to see COVID-19 be the death of rugby union. #JacDigital's Finn Morton reports on how are Premier Rugby clubs surviving during this pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has devastated many individuals and businesses forcing them into financial hardship. Sport in Australia has not been immune to the virus, with it being impacted at all levels. Most of the discussions have been associated with the professional level such as the NRL and AFL. But what's happening at the local level? #UQ JacDigital reporter Jarrod Vidler speaks to Ipswich City Councillor Paul Tully about how the pandemic is affecting his community and what's the process on the road to recovery. (photo courtesy Paul Tully Facebook page).

There has been a lot of speculation in the media recently about the future of sport in Australia, however, not a lot has been said about the future of women’s sport. Female sport in Australia has finally seen significant improvements with pay and coverage, but the impact of COVID-19 could send some female sporting codes backwards. #UQ JacDigital journalism student Michaela Cameron reports.

The Alliance Française de Brisbane, in partnership with the School of Languages and Cultures, the School of Communication of Arts and the Centre for Critical and Creative Writing at the University of Queensland and with the support of the European Philosophy Research Group, is delighted to welcome to Brisbane one of France’s most widely acclaimed journalists, ANNICK COJEAN. Annick Cojean is senior reporter for French daily newspaper Le Monde and chairs the committee for the Prix Albert Londres, the French equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize. In her latest book, Je ne serais pas arrivée là si...27 femmes racontent (I Wouldn’t Be Where I am Today If... 27 Women Tell Their Stories), Annick Cojean pays tribute to her recently deceased mother and also to 27 famous women she has interviewed, including singers and musicians Patti Smith, Marianne Faithful, Joan Baez, Angélique Kidjo and Cecilia Bartoli, actresses Brigitte Bardot, Claudia Cardinale, Vanessa Redgrave and Nicole Kidman, authors Amélie Nothomb and Virginie Despentes, politicians Christine Taubira (former French government Minister) and Anne Hidalgo (Mayor of Paris), as well as Nobel Prize winning Iranian lawyer Shirin Ebadi. Cojean recognises these women as inspiring – identifying them all as being able to speak with sincerity about the obstacles they faced in life, their dreams, an ability to embrace chaos, and a resilience to change. While the interviews were conducted before the #MeToo phenomenon or its French equivalent #BalanceTonPorc, they resonate the sentiment that we can make a difference to women's lives, but they must be given a platform. Cojean feels that so often the floor has been given to men, such that in her own work as a journalist, she aims to focus on women and their stories. Her book Gaddafi's Harem uncovered the systematic rape and torture of women during Muammar Gaddafi's regime. She was co-author of the documentary Le Cri étouffé (The Muffled Scream), directed by Manon Loizeau, which investigated rape as a political weapon during the Syrian Civil War. Join us for this discussion exploring how we may build on the momentum of the #MeToo movement by empowering women to speak up and tell their own stories. Annick Cojean will be in-conversation with Associate Professor Elizabeth Stephens. Elizabeth is an Australia Research Council Future Fellow in the Institute for Advanced Humanities and Associate Professor in Cultural Studies in the School of Communication and Arts at the University of Queensland. She has published widely in the fields of gender and sexuality studies, focusing primarily on queer and feminist art, literature and theory. Her first book examined the homoerotic fiction of French author Jean Genet under the rubric of “queer writing.” Her most recent book, Normality: A Critical Genealogy (Chicago University Press, 2017), co-authored with Peter Cryle, was a long history of the concept of the normal. Elizabeth is also involved in a series of long-standing collaborations with the experimental art collective SymbioticA, the Centre for Excellence in Biological Art at the University of Western Australia, and is a founding member of the international Somatechnics Research Network. She is currently President of the Cultural Studies Association of Australasia.

Shakespeare, Religion and the Making of the Modern City Professor Ewan Fernie, University of Birmingham and Chair and Professor of Shakespeare Studies at The Shakespeare Institute, Stratford-upon-Avon UK Abstract: This lecture will present a genuinely alternative vision of Shakespeare, Englishness and modernity from the annals of England’s second city: Birmingham. George Dawson (1821-76) is now almost entirely forgotten, but his statue stood at the civic heart of Birmingham till 1951. Addressing passers-by in a lively attitude, under a canopy that was decorated with medallions of, among others, Shakespeare and Oliver Cromwell, it stood in front of the world’s first ever Shakespeare Library, one whose doors were open to all the people of Birmingham, who owned it—and indeed, still own it. Holding in excess of 40,000 volumes, including a First Folio, in 93 languages, 15,000 playbills, 2000 musical scores, and so on: this is surely one of the most remarkably democratic great cultural collections in the world. But Dawson’s library is now completely uncurated, shut up in the stacks, shameful testimony to the loss of ‘an increasing intention to give everything to everybody’ which characterised his progressive construal of culture as much as material wealth as truly a ‘commonwealth’ to be shared. Such was Dawson's ‘Civic Gospel’: a revolutionary movement that transferred the passion and mission of traditional religion into modern urban culture. As a result, Birmingham became the ‘most artistic town in England’, even ‘the best governed city in the world’, a pattern for life in the modern metropolis. When Dawson's statue was first unveiled, it was therefore solemnly acknowledged that ‘the name of George Dawson was famous, and his friends abounded far down in the South, beneath the bright beams of the Southern Cross, and far away amid the golden homes of the setting sun on the Pacific coast’. And yet—Dawson was controversial, at one time the most hated man in England. When, around 1860, a scion of the Blythe family visited Birmingham from Adelaide, he expressed surprise ‘that there was not more anti-Dawson talk; he said such feeling was much stronger with them’. Minister of a Church which he himself called ‘The Church of the Doubters’, Dawson insistently, courageously and almost comprehensively reinvented religion and canonical culture for new times as a vocation for insurgent liberal activism and solidarity, and Shakespeare, even more than the Bible, was his sacred text. In restoring him to his rightful place in history, this lecture will argue he still has something to teach us. Presenter Bio: Ewan Fernie is Chair and Professor of Shakespeare Studies at The Shakespeare Institute, Stratford-upon-Avon. He is author of Shame in Shakespeare, The Demonic: Literature and Experience and Macbeth, Macbeth (with Simon Palfrey). His latest book is Shakespeare for Freedom: Why the Plays Matter (CUP, 2017). His edited or coedited books include Spiritual Shakespeares, Reconceiving the Renaissance, Redcrosse: Remaking Religious Poetry for Today's World,Thomas Mann and Shakespeare, and the forthcoming New Places: Shakespeare and Civic Creativity. He is General Editor (also with Palfrey) of the Shakespeare Now! series and is currently working on the creative conjunction of Shakespeare, George Dawson and Birmingham in modern life, both as it happened in the nineteenth century and as it might be recovered as a fresh stimulus to cultural and political creativity today.
