The Grapevine is back for 2022! For their first show of the year, Kulja and Dylan get on the line with author and journalist Elle Hardy to discuss her new book Beyond Belief - How Pentacostal Christianity is taking over the World which is out now via Newsouth Books. Hardy exposes the Pentecostal agenda: not just saving souls but transforming societies and controlling politics.
Then, research fellow from RMIT’s school of design, Jordan Lacey, calls in to talk about The Sonic Gathering Space a sound design installation in the CBD set up to work out how people’s moods are changed by a city’s ambience. You can sit amongst plants taken from four of Victoria’s national parks and listen to the ambient sounds of those parks.
And Aleasha McCallion from the Monash Sustainable Development Institute, gets on the horn to discuss the pollution created by the pandemic that her article in The Conversation explores, Have you stopped using reusable fabric masks? Here’s how to cut down waste without compromising your health.
