    16. Yarn with Phil Bevan aka Majura the Magician

    For this yarn I've visited Phil Bevan aka Majura the Magician in his Queanbeyan castle, filled with hundreds of magical books and props. There are not many magicians around, especially as funny and engaging as Phil and seeing the cards on the kitchen table while Phil was magicking up a cup of coffee for me, I was excited to see some fun card tricks! It's like being transported to another world and I loved every bit of it! Majura Comedy Magic has won numerous awards for close up strolling magic at the Crown Casino in performed at the lodge and parliament house for two Australian Prime Ministers. Phil travels to international conventions for magicians and is a rockstar teacher who brings joy and magic to everyone who knows him. We talked about the business of happiness, schools, parties and Disneyland.

    15. Yarn with Jervis Bay Portrait Prize artists

    I was fortunate to visit the first JBPP held at the Jervis Bay Breweng & co and interview Randall Sinnamon and participating artists with their muses! The co-organisers of this new art prize, Randall Sinnamon and Vanessa Harries, were inspired by a now defunct exhibition that had been a favourite component of the region’s former SeeChange Festival, The Little Archies (named of course in honour of the much loved Archibald Prize for Australian portraiture). Randall is himself a past Archibald Prize finalist – his portrait of Egyptian-Australian oud virtuoso Joseph Tawadros was selected in 2023, at the Art Gallery of NSW. You can hear Vanessa on 927FM each Wednesday from 4.30pm-5.30pm. Her program the SLAM profiles local artists, musicians, bands, exhibitions and festivals. The works had to portray a Shoalhaven resident, but the artist could be from anywhere. This yarn has 8 various interviews and was recorded with background music, so the sound quality is slightly compromised. * Randall Sinnamon 0:00 - 0:48 * Clayton Campion 6:59 - 12:14 * Allana Valentine 1st Prize 12:31 - 24:15 * Sarah Yee 2nd Prize 24:26 - 28:38 * Alfie Campion (12 years) Brewers Choice 28:48 - 31:38 * Glenn and Giuseppina (Pina) Miller 32:02 - 38:39 * Catherine Woods 3rd Prize 38:50 - 47:09 * Vanessa Barbey 47:21 - 53:47
