Podcast Overview

We are the sons of migrants. In the podcast, we talk about our experiences growing up in Australia in the second half of the Twentieth century. My name is Walter and my friend is Moreno. We met at university. After a long time not seeing each other, we started meeting again regularly for lunch every two weeks at The Beachcomber in St.Kilda. Occasionally we meet for breakfast when the cafe is quieter and we record our conversations. Write to us at waltermusolino@gmail.com if you would like to talk to us about your emigrant experiences. Technical production for these podcasts is by Laura Wild.

26: Night Visions

Walter and Moreno go meta on their recollections of the past. Can creatives be trusted to give an unadorned statement of fact, or are Moreno and Walter simply slaves to the human desire to craft meaning out of moments in time? From the small joys of pissing on stars to urban exploration, our exile heroes analyse their memories under Carl Jung's theory of mythmaking.   Your hosts are Walter Musolino and Moreno Giovannoni.  Technical production is by Laura Wild.

27: War Stories

It can be easy to take for granted the closeness of significant spaces in the landscape of our heritage - we may visit churches where our grandparents were married, the streets our parents grew up on, the graves our ancestors rest in. For some, a thousand years of connection surrounds them. But for the children of immigrants, these places can become mythic with distance. Sometimes, even hostile. How can our parents' stories lead us to feel deep connections with locations we may never see? This week, Walter delves into the stories he was raised on and reflects on his relationship with Italy.    Your hosts are Walter Musolino and Moreno Giovannoni.  Technical production is by Laura Wild.

24: The Lost World of Lost Families

In this episode, Walter & Moreno discuss some of their most significant memories of childhood - their first trips to Italy.  Together, they recall and compare the disparity of those formative experiences: the drama of travelling by sea, first encounters with true boredom, toothless grandfathers, emaciated aunts, the nighttime emissions of elderly relatives, and above all - the dislocation of returning to Australia.    Your hosts are Walter Musolino and Moreno Giovannoni.  Technical production is by Laura Wild.
