Join me and Vince in this heartfelt episode of 'Why Is It So?' as we probe into the significance of Anzac Day, a day that commemorates the spirit and sacrifices of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. Listen as we reflect on the historical landing at Gallipoli in 1915 and the enduring impact of the brave souls who served and perished in wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping missions. We discuss the shared sense of unity and respect this solemn day fosters among Australians and New Zealanders. From the emotional Anzac Day services to symbolic tributes like the Anzac Bridge and the poignant last post, experience the national pride and gratitude conveyed through these commemorations. Discover personal stories of valour like those of Albert Jacker and John Simpson Kirkpatrick, and how their bravery resonates today. The episode also touches on modern interpretations and the importance of keeping the Anzac legacy alive across generations. Above all, it’s a tribute to the courage of those who fought and an acknowledgment of the freedoms we cherish today.

In this episode, Vince and I take a journey into the evolving significance of Easter in a contemporary society. We discuss how Easter has shifted from its religious roots to a holiday often viewed merely as a long weekend. The conversation highlights the erosion of traditional practices, like the significance of Good Friday, and the rise of non-traditional activities, such as sporting events during this time. We also reflect on how the Easter holidays are perceived by the average Australian today and ponder the diminishing focus on religious aspects in favour of leisure and commercial interests. This episode is an introspective look at how societal values impact traditional religious celebrations, exploring themes of cultural change, modernity, and the importance of preserving traditional values in an ever-evolving world.

Meet Gary Pacelli, a man with an extraordinary life journey from law enforcement heroics to overcoming a near-fatal skydiving accident. In this episode of "Why Is It So?", Gary recounts to us, his incredible experiences as a law enforcement officer and his courageous recovery from a skydiving accident that left him a paraplegic, when his parachute opened “hard” breaking his neck, a mile high in the sky, at the age of 53. With his indomitable spirit, Gary challenged all odds to skydive again, proving that resilience knows no bounds. Tune in to hear Gary’s inspiring story of hope and determination, and learn how he defied the limitations of his injury to reclaim his passion for skydiving. Gary has written a book, NOT MY TIME, that is in pre-production to be brought to life on the Big Screen, and he has generously sent me a few books to give away to our listeners, but they are limited.
