  • Episode 81: In the ring with Denise Renzi
    Feb 17 2025

    We love getting to meet new friends through this podcast and this week we have another to introduce to our listeners- Denise Renzi. Denise is originally from the beautiful city of Modena in Italy and is now based in Bendigo where she is pursuing her dream of becoming a professional boxer. Currently she is an amateur boxer and competes in the Victorian Amateur Boxing League. It was so interesting to hear her story of becoming a boxer, as well as her story of how she came to live in Australia. We also discussed boxing as a sport and how it is strong in the Italian culture. Denise has a big fight coming up this weekend and we wish her all the best. We look forward to catching up with Denise again for another episode in the future.

  • Episode 80: Happily ever after- Italian Australian Style! A Valentine's Day Special
    Feb 10 2025

    It's almost Valentine's Day so for this week's episode we caught up with a couple who just love to celebrate this occasion, our Aunty Mimma and Uncle Rolly. Aunty Mimma is our Dad Melo's youngest sister and her husband is our Uncle Rolly. We love their story of an Italian Australian woman marrying an Australian man. It was a lot of fun going listening to the story of how they met, meeting each other's families and how they are still very much in love after more than 25 years of marriage.

    We are very close Aunty Mimma and Uncle Rolly, we always have a lot of fun and a lot of laughs when we all get together and this chat was no exception. We know our listeners will enjoy a few laughs while listening to this one.

  • Episode 79: When you're more Italian than you realise! Ft Laura Cortellazzi
    Feb 3 2025

    We love having our friends join us on the podcast, this week we are joined by Laura Cortellazzi. Laura's story is unique and fascinating. Laura immigrated to Australia with her parents at the age of 18, she was born in France to parents of Sicilian heritage however her dad was actually born in Australia before moving back to Italy as a child. Living in France Laura grew up with French as her first language but learned Italian through her family, she later learned English a teenager.

    We heard the story of how Laura met her husband Anthony who is a long time family friend of ours, of course we debated which food is better- French or Italian? We also discussed how Laura identifies her heritage and we enjoyed hearing about an Italian family moving to France then to Australia all the while maintaining a strong connection to their Italian heritage.
