Ouzo Talk returns for season four with a deep-dive into the world of Byzantine Chant. With the help of Byzantine Chant expert Dimitris Koubaroulis, Tom and Nick have all their questions answered about this unique form of music, which while most closely associated with the music and sounds of the Church, is an art-form all its own that has not only influenced modern music, but has also helped to record and preserve the music of other cultures. There's more to Byzantine Chanting than what you grew up hearing in Church – in fact, it's a tradition of music that stretches back to ancient times. Mandatory listening for those interested in music!

Ouzo Talk celebrates 20 years since Greece's iconic Euro 2004 win with three legends of that squad in; Captain and Player of the Tournament, Theodoros Zagorakis, winning goal-scorer Angelos Charisteas, and the incomparable Giorgos Karagounis. Against every imaginable odd, the Greek Football team defied the odds, the pundits, the haters, and no less than four of the best teams in World Football, to take out the inspiring victory. In the process, they humbled the best the world had to offer including Portugal's Luis Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo, the might of Spain, defending Euro Champions and World Cup winners France boating Zinedine Zidane and Thierry Henry, proving to generations of Greek fans globally that anything is possible. The Greek Legends – on tour in Australia thanks to the Football Brilliance Academy, join the boys in The Distillery to go behind the scenes of that win. If you're Greek, or a football fan... this is one not to miss.

Cameos from comedians Angelo Tsarouchas and Anthony Locascio, plus Kristina from Are You Even Greek.

Join us for a very special episode as we commemorate Oxi Day – the historic moment on October 28, 1940, when Greece famously defied Mussolini's ultimatum, shouting a resounding “No!” to fascist occupation. This act of defiance marked Greece’s entry into WWII, leaving a profound mark on world history, as Greece’s resistance slowed Axis powers and inspired global hope. Special, expert guest Greek Consul General, Yiannis Mallikourtis, brings a behind the scenes look into the history of the moment, while WWII aficionado, Nick Andriotakis, shares both the global and Australian reaction to the act of defiance. A must listen for all history buffs and members of the Greek diaspora.
