We've so loved having our guests come to join us for a face-to-face conversation in the heart of Sydney...
But given that omicron is wracking havoc left, right, and center, we've decided to put our interviews on hold for a couple of weeks more.
"What do we talk about then?" we asked ourselves?
"Let's philosophise", was the answer :)
And that's how Philosoquiz came to life.
What kind of BIG questions can you expect in Philosoquiz?
Well, we'd rather keep them secret to add to the excitement of the whole concept, but to give you an idea, here's a taste of three of them:
We know, that's not what you signed up for!
But, hey! This is an experiment after all!
And with a world that keeps throwing us curveballs of all shapes and sizes, all we can do is adapt and play our best possible game.
And this week's game is Philosoquiz!
So, if you are looking for a thought-provoking, fun way to kill your time, listen to our very first Philosoquizz!
Jamie Loveday is Food Lab Sydney’s Program Manager.
He manages its operations, facilitates the programs, and supports the growth and future direction of the incubator in collaboration with the rest of the team since 2019.
Jamie started his career as a farmhand for permaculture and regenerative farmers across rural Cambodia while gathering information for his research thesis on food entrepreneurship and sustainable development after completing a Bachelor of Commerce (Hns Class I) at the University of Sydney.
FoodLab Sydney is a not-for-profit food business incubator inspired by the original FoodLab model in Detroit, “a globally recognised intervention in addressing food security, social justice, food justice, and grassroots food entrepreneurship.”
Foodlab’s goal is to empower food entrepreneurs and community-shakers with the tools to create a fairer, more sustainable food system in Sydney and beyond.
And from our conversation with Jamie, they are certainly on the right track!
We thoroughly enjoyed learning about Jamie growing up in rural Australia and the shock that represented coming to Sydney where he no longer was able to grow his own food as he was accustomed to doing back home.

There is no denying that our guest this week has been a pillar for the Spanish community in Sydney since her arrival in the early 90s.
However, her impact on multicultural awareness cuts across nationalities and labels.
Dr. Natalia Ortiz is the founder and Director of the Spanish Film Festival in Australia and New Zealand, one of the largest Spanish Film Festivals in the world.
She is also the Director and Founder of SCHAA- The Spanish Cultural Heritage Association of Australia, a not-for-profit organisation that promotes the preservation of the Spanish cultural heritage in Australia.
Natalia is a filmmaker with a passion for questioning assumptions about identity formation, community building, and feelings of belonging.

Currently, Natalia is co-directing and co-producing a feature documentary, The brides' flight (Spain, Australia) produced with the support of RTVE-Radio y Televisión Española, Destino Films, and Desenfoque Post Producciones Digitales S.L.

Natalia is such an inspiration for all of us and there was so much we wanted to talk to her about:
And a lot more because Natalia is a source of knowledge and a true joy to talk to.

¡Cerramos la primera temporada de The Tari Experiment con un bombazo!
Tenemos hoy con nosotras ni más ni menos que a Miguel de Lucas, uno de los mejores magos de este planeta, y una persona con tantísimos talentos que ¡nosotras casi lo calificaríamos como el Leonardo Da Vinci del siglo XX!!
Deja que te cuente por qué:
Miguel es un ilusionista, formado como mago en la escuela Tamariz, gestionada por la hija del legendario Juan Tamariz.
Es también conferenciante, coach de inteligencia emocional, y presenta desde el 2017 el programa de Un país mágico en La2 de TVE y, en La 7 de Castilla y León Televisión, 'Contigo, pan y magia'.
Ha obtenido un montón de premios, entre ellos, el Premio Nacional de Magia otorgado por la Federación Española de Artes Mágicas en 2019, año en el que también fue nominado a los premios Zapping de televisión en las categorías de mejor presentador y mejor programa cultural por Un país mágico.
Es autor de “Hay un mago en ti. Descubre tu magia interior”, y uno de los pioneros en llevar el ilusionismo a la cooperación, participando en muchos proyectos en Bolivia, Haití y el Sahara.
Es el organizador del Festival Internacional de Magia que se desarrolla anualmente en Salamanca y forma parte del TOP 100 de los conferenciantes españoles elaborado por Thinking Heads.
Miguel es papá de tres preciosas personitas, y un ser humano como pocos.
De hecho, fue precisamente su humanidad, su humildad y su autenticidad la que nos llevó a llamar a su puerta.
Le agradecemos un montón que nos la abriese y te invitamos a que no te pierdas ni un segundo de nuestra conversación, porque los mundos mágicos y sostenibles de los que nos habla Miguel, empiezan contigo.

In this episode, we were extremely fortunate to talk to one of the nicest and warmest persons you’ll ever meet - Ngaio Parr.
Currently living in sunny California, Ngaio is an independent designer, author, artist and curator, and founder and director of Make Nice, an annual “un-conference” and online platform for creative women.
We were keen to learn more about her very exciting journey through many different creative endeavours and to understand what shaped the unique artistic voice and style that characterises her today.
Ngaio has worked with clients of the calibre of The New York Times, Disney, Penguin, Frankie Magazine, Buzzfeed, and Adobe, but one of the things we admire most about Ngaio is her ability to unite creativity and activism, not shying away from taking a stand on issues that matter to her – women’s rights being one of them.
Her “un-conference” Make Nice was a very successful attempt at providing women in the design world in Australia and the US a safe space and supporting them in all areas of their careers.
Ngaio is also the author of The Grief Companion, an illustrated deck of cards now available from Hardie Grant Books and other book providers.
Ngaio designed The Grief Companion to offer insights into the ever-evolving grieving process: from thoughts and facts that help feel grounded and seen, to ideas on how to honour loss and memory, and other resources to guide people through their experience of grief as it continues to shift.
We had a wonderfully relaxed and heartfelt conversation with this very special human being!

¡Por fin hemos podido grabar juntas y por fin hemos podido hacerlo en un estudio profesional de podcasting!
¿Qué quiere decir eso para ti?
Quiere decir mejor sonido, más fluidez, y ¡aún mejor rollo!
En este episodio además, la dirección de nuestro experimento toma un rumbo aún más claro.
Porque, aunque en nuestros orígenes introducimos un elemento de negocios resultado de nuestros muchos años como freelancers y emprendedoras, esta semana, nos hemos alejado semi oficialmente de este.
¿Por qué?
Porque nos negamos a ser otro de los miles de podcasts o productores de contenido que te dicen continuamente qué tienes que hacer para hacer crecer tu negocio.
No queremos crear otra de los miles de listas que se comparten en internet cada semana, insistiendo que hagas esto y lo otro, y que no se te ocurre hacer esto o lo de más allá, con esa autoridad y certeza con la que tantos gurús e influencers emplean.
No, eso no es lo que queremos ni para ti ni para nosotras.
Ese no es el impacto que queremos provocar.
Porque ahí, está la cuestión.
Lo que tenemos claro es que nuestro pequeño experimento nació para romper moldes y provocar un impacto verdadero.
Llámanos ilusas, ingenuas, sonadoras... pero creemos que tenemos un medio muy potente a nuestra disposición para provocar un impacto verdadero en este mundo más allá de guiarte en lo poco que podamos nosotras por el mundo del emprendimiento.
Y por eso, hemos decidido hacer un pequeño giro y centrarnos en el camino del activismo.
En este episodio empezamos planteándonos si, la creatividad, en sus infinitas formas, puede ser impulsora de la protesta, y viajamos en el tiempo y en el espacio para descubrir los muchos ejemplos de cambios positivos nacidos a raíz del artivismo.
Y en nuestro camino, descubrimos algo muy importante y es que, para que la expresión creativa pueda convertirse en activismo, tiene que haber un elemento muy importante.
¿Cuál?

Many social movements are inspired by concepts like love, freedom, justice…
But those intangible words continue to be abstract entities until we turn them into concrete actions.
Being a feminist, in theory, is wonderful but until you convert the philosophy behind that word into concrete actions that contribute to creating a better world for women, feminism remains exactly that – just a word.
However, through art and activism, all these abstract words have the potential to become tangible and personal because once you start taking action you are then faced with questions like “what am I willing to give” and “what am I willing to give up”?
Only then, your point of view has become activism.
Social change doesn’t just happen, it happens because you have decided to make it happen.
You have decided to make a change.
In this episode, we question whether podcasting can be a means of creative activism and explore the nature of our own artistic activism through podcasting by highlighting some of the powerful voices that are leading the fight for change in our society.
We also discuss some of the many ways in which artistic activism is continuously showing up around us in different endeavours from painting to music, film, and even comics!
As Theodor Adorno, a famous philosopher said “all art is an uncommitted crime”.
In other words, by its very nature art challenges the status quo.
Art and activism go hand in hand.
One moves us mentally and emotionally, the other physically.
Combined, both are powerful catalysts for the kind of positive transformation that is needed today.
Some episode!

¿Te has preguntado alguna vez hasta que punto muchas de las decisiones que tomas cada día son tus decisiones propias o son, por el contrario, incitadas por los gigantes de la tecnología digital?
Sí, te hablamos de Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc.
Es cierto, los grandes titanes de internet aportan infinidad de ventajas a nuestras vidas, pero...
¿No crees que de vez en cuando, es importante pausar y ser consciente del impacto que sus acciones tienen en nuestras vidas?
¿No crees que debemos cuestionarnos si navegar y participar indefinidamente en los platos sin fondo que son Instagram, Facebook y las otras redes sociales, nos aporta los beneficios personales y/o profesionales con los que nos engatusaron a todos?
Eso, es precisamente lo que intentamos hacer en este episodio, a raíz de la atención negativa por parte de medios y la opinión pública que tanto Facebook como Google están recibiendo últimamente.
¡No te lo pierdas!

This week we chatted to chef Ana Cortés and Ilanit Bard, owner of Soigné Hospitality about, amongst many other things, living “with a thick accent”.
Ana, - originally from a small village in the southern Spanish countryside – is today the head chef at the hatted Chinese restaurant Lee Ho Fook in Melbourne, as well as the first female President of Eat Spanish, a non for profit association created for the promotion of Spanish cuisine in Australia.
Ilanit, grew up in a multicultural Jewish family in France, from an African mother and a Middle Eastern father. When she landed in Australia she joined the world of hospitality and in less than five years she went from being a kitchen porter to becoming the General manager of one of the best restaurants in Australia, Lûmé.
Today, Ilanit is the founder of her own consultancy firm, Soigné, as well as co-founder of The Thick Accents Project, a celebration of migrant women in the hospitality industry with a focus on what thick accents represent.
We wanted to learn what it was like for both of them to live with a thick accent and to navigate the labels that are generally attached to migrant women everywhere in the world.
Don't miss this fascinating, very casual, and very honest, four-way conversation!
