1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Already and this is the this is the daily this 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: is the Daily OS. Oh, now it makes sense. Good 3 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: morning and welcome to the Daily Oas it is Saturday, 4 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 1: the twenty third November. I'm Sam, I'm Zara. Happy Saturday, everybody, 5 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: and welcome to another episode of our good News podcasts Zara. 6 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: There's a lot of good news to get through today, 7 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: to bring a smile, good problem to happen. I know 8 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: it is that great good news overwhelmed. Why don't we 9 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: talk about that more? Yeah, why don't we start with 10 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: a really important peace prize that's given out every year? 11 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I loved coming across this story and it's 12 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: that for twenty years, an organization called Kids' Rights has 13 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 2: awarded the International Children's Peace Prize. I hadn't heard of it, 14 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 2: but have loved learning about it. And this year it 15 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 2: went to a seventeen year old Afghan woman, her name 16 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 2: is Nila Ibrahmi, for her work amplifying the voices of 17 00:00:59,200 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: Afghan girl. 18 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: So to put that in perspective, that means she was 19 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: one in two thousand and seven, which is pretty crazy. 20 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 2: And my god, has she done a lot in her 21 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:11,119 Speaker 2: very young life. She fled Afghanistan with her family after 22 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: the Taliban retook Coble in August of twenty twenty one, 23 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: and she now lives in Canada. Back in twenty twenty three, 24 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,839 Speaker 2: she founded something called her Story, and it's an online 25 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: platform for Afghan women and girls to share their personal 26 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 2: stories and their experiences. And I mean, I don't think 27 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 2: I need to tell anyone why that's so significant, but 28 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 2: just as a bit of a recap, since taking power, 29 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: the Taliban has imposed many, many restrictions specifically on women 30 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: and girls in the country. You know, they've banned them 31 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 2: from high schools, from universities, from most forms of employment. 32 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 2: Most recently, on the pod, we spoke about that women's 33 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: faces and bodies now need to be fully covered in public, 34 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 2: and that they're not allowed to use their voices outside 35 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 2: their home. And so here we have a really young 36 00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 2: girl who has founded an online platform where that is possible, 37 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: where women and girls can have their voices heard in 38 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: the digital space. 39 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: And I love these stories because we do spend a 40 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: lot of time, especially at the moment, talking about the 41 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: bad side of the internet. But here is an example 42 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: of how the internet can really democratize this sort of 43 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: exposure to stories. 44 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: One hundred percent and after winning the award, Ibrahimi said, 45 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: the voices of Afghan women and girls will echo across 46 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 2: the world. We must all continue to give them strength 47 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 2: and hope in the darkest of times. 48 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: An amazing story and an amazing award given out to 49 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: some clear you know, people who are doing amazing things now. 50 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: But imagine what she's going to do in the decades 51 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: to come. Now, let's send to sport. I am particularly 52 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 1: excited today because it is the start of the Australian 53 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: Test cricket summer that started yesterday. But we're not talking 54 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: about cricket. We're talking about soccer. We are. 55 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: I actually have two good news sports stories for today. 56 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 2: So the first is that for the very first time 57 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 2: ever an Australian national soccer team has won a World Cup. 58 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: And they said it couldn't happen. 59 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 2: Did you know that? So this week the Para Matilda's 60 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 2: one the Cerebral Palsy World Cup and retained their spot 61 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 2: at the top of the global rankings. The Para Matilda's 62 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,519 Speaker 2: scored six goals to defeat the US six to two 63 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 2: at the finals. 64 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: Take that that's always sweet anything. 65 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: Team captain and goalkeeper Caitlin Smith scored three of Australia's 66 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 2: goals from across the. 67 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 1: Field goalkeeper superstar. 68 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: So the team secured their spot in the finals with 69 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 2: at ten neil victory over Denmark and didn't lose a 70 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: match through the entire group stage. I mean, that's a 71 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: pretty clear winning streak from the Ossies. And just to 72 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: paint a bit more of a picture as to what 73 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 2: this competition is. CP football is open to athletes with 74 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: cerebral palsy or an acquired brain injury and the World 75 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 2: Cup for both the men's and the women's game were 76 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: held in Spain this month and it was our Ossie 77 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 2: girls that took it home. 78 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: You promised me two stories though, so we've got the 79 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: CP World Cup of Victors. I'll be running with that 80 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: one for a little while. Bring me another one. 81 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: So this week it was announced that next year's NRLW season, 82 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: So that's the Women's NRL League. It's been confirmed to 83 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: be its biggest ever on record, so it has twelve teams, 84 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: an eleven weeks regular season and a three week final series. 85 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: For the first time, the Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs will field 86 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: a women's side, while the new Zealand Warriors are returning 87 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 2: to the competition after a few years away. Every club 88 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 2: will have at least one night where the women's and 89 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 2: men's games will be played back to back, which I 90 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: kind of love. 91 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a fantastic initiative where you can go with 92 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: friends and family and see both the men's and women's 93 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: teams playing on the same night. Zara, We've got two 94 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: more good news stories to get through. Where are you 95 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: taking me in the world now? 96 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 2: So don't even know if this is really a good story, 97 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 2: but I just thought that it was funny. 98 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: Which is actually how all good stories start. 99 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, So it turns out that Italian authorities have intercepted 100 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: eight million euros, so that's about thirteen million Australian dollars 101 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 2: worth of artifacts that were headed for the black market. 102 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 2: So two thieves are alleged to have begun digging up 103 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: the artifacts near Farmland and in the region of Umbria. 104 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: And these artifacts included things like urns and beauty products. 105 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: One thing that was found was a perfume bottles that 106 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: Reuter's reported still smells of the original scent. But the 107 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: reason that I think this story is so funny is 108 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 2: that local art police, which I must say feels like 109 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: a uniquely European proposition. They were tipped off about the 110 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 2: thieves because the thieves started posting some of the artifacts 111 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 2: on Facebook marketplace trying to find buyers, and they somehow 112 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 2: through that were able to intercept this huge ring of 113 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 2: black market artifact selling. 114 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: We're very much in favor of the internet today. I mean, 115 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: I know a couple of. 116 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: I mean there's you know, we've had news of a 117 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: social media band. We've had so much I was just 118 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 2: trying to balance it out a bit today. 119 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: I just love the image of some thieves digging up 120 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: Nana's garden looking for artifacts that she's clearly buried at 121 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: the back underneath the famous olive tree. I know, too good, Zara, 122 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: let's take her back home now. To finish off with 123 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: it was aria Awards this week week for Australian music. 124 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 2: Yeah no, I mean, I think that it's really nice 125 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: when we get to take a moment to celebrate homegrown 126 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 2: talent and the ARIAS has no shortage of inspiration and 127 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 2: great news stories. I think there were two moments of 128 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: the night that I wanted to highlight to take us 129 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: out for the day. So the first was that we 130 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 2: saw a record number of First Nations artists nominated for 131 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 2: an ARI Award. I believe there were twenty two First 132 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 2: Nations people who were nominated, and some of those First 133 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 2: Nations performers took home trophies across multiple categories, things like 134 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 2: Best Country Album, Best Hip Hop Rap Release, and Best 135 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 2: Adult Contemporary Album. The list of First Nations winners included Nookie, 136 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 2: Angus Field and Dallas Woods of three Percent, the hip 137 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 2: hop band Troy Cassa Daily and Emily wore Amara. And 138 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 2: I think that for an Australian Awards night, this is 139 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 2: just such a good sign that we are recognizing and 140 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 2: highlighting the incredible work of First Nations artists. 141 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: Especially when there's been a bit of chatter in music 142 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: circles about how hard it is to break into a 143 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: local market now with how easy it is to listen 144 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: to American artists and kaya that's really really good to see. 145 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: And then there's always one induction into the Hall of Fame. 146 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 2: This is actually just becoming a Missy Higgins fan podcast. 147 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 2: But we did speak about this story a little while 148 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 2: ago when the ARIA did announce that it was going 149 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 2: to induct Higgins into the Hall of Fame, and I 150 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 2: mentioned at the time the reason that they were giving 151 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 2: it to her was that they said that Missy Higgins's 152 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 2: music had been cited as a formative influence by two 153 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 2: generations of Australian singer songwriters, and we spoke about that 154 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 2: at the time. But what I loved most at the 155 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 2: ARIA Awards, and you actually alerted me to this, was 156 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 2: when Missy Higgins got up on stage. She performed a 157 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 2: medley of all her biggest hits and then foot scar 158 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 2: which is the biggest banger of all. She was joined 159 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 2: by a number of other Aussie superstars, people like Amy Shark, 160 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: g Flip, Angie McMahon and Greta Ray, and all of 161 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 2: these people have spoken about the influence of Missy Higgins 162 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: on their own crafts and it was so heartwarming. It 163 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 2: was so beautiful.
