Unfolded

Seasons change. An actor prepares. A birthday is removed from the calendar.  A hypnotist causes chaos on a cruise ship. A new life awaits at a petrol station. A grieving granddaughter finds a surprising stowaway. A dog makes yakisoba. The sun rises in the west.  We’ve all read stories that changed our lives. We’ve all imagined places that feel like home. We’ve all met characters who feel like family.  Now, we’ll hear the stories, then go to the source. We’ll speak with the authors, to find out what makes a story great, where they come from, and why they connect.  These are stories: Unpacked. Understood. Unfolded.  Join us for season 2 of Unfolded as Seth Robinson and Tony Birch speak with authors Melanie Cheng, Bri Lee, Dominic Amerena, Briohny Doyle, Helena Pantsis, Jumaana Abdu, Scott Limbrick and Romy Ash, or travel back through the archive to hear the incredible stories from season 1.   Unfolded is produced with support from the Melbourne Public Humanities Initiative, on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Eastern Kulin Nation. The producers would like to pay their respects to the traditional owners, to their Elders past and present, and to acknowledge their history, which go back tens of thousands of years.  Hosts: Seth Robinson and Tony Birch Creator and Executive Producer: Seth Robinson Recording: Gavin Nebauer, Horwood Recording Studio, University of Melbourne Editing and Sound Design: Nick King and Courtney Carthy, Nearly Media Artwork: Marty O'Meara
