Yes, the rumours are true, we have a celebrity guest! This week we are joined by the incredible, iconic, fabulous Wendy Mocke - Papua New Guinean actor, writer, theatremaker, and bad bitch extraordinaire. We talk "The ‘m e r i’ project", Wendy's groundbreaking exploration of Melanesian Black Womanhood - so check it out IRL at NorthSite Contemporary Arts in Cairns or online (linked below). And don't forget to stand in solidarity with our West Papuan siblings tomorrow on Dec 1!
Together we formed such an unhinged trio that our chaos created a three-hour episode. Lucky for you, we're breaking it up this week so you get TWO whole episodes. Yes, yes, generous kings, we know. Anyway, Wendy drags Americans trying to invalidate our Blackness, Dylan talks misinformation on social media, and Lungol dips his toe into a genre he knows nothing about for a play he chaotically decided to write on a whim.
Weekly talanoa sessions with Lungol and Dylan.
