Emma and bryan talk to him about his amazing history: his time as a member of the Stolen Generations, his sexuality, his heroin addiction and cat burgular identity and how he became one of Australia’s greatest stage and scene actors. He also manages to blend in talk about sphincters; such is Uncle Jack’s charm.

He recently won a Helpmann Award and not long ago finished a Warner Bros. film with Hugh Jackman. *swoon!*

We dedicate this Lefty Pinkoes podcast with love and gratitude to Aunty Frances Bond – Ilbijerri Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Theatre’s longest-serving Director who recently passed away.

‘Uncle’ Richard (as bryan insists on calling him) was an officer for the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody and has been dealt his fair share of heartache and tragedy as a result.

Despite this, Uncle Richard has found healing through his culture, his family and through the process of facilitating Aboriginal voice through the arts – be it on stage, through poetry or through song and music.

Uncle Richard talks about Australian and Aboriginal politics, grieving, culture, pride, history all in the context of wanting to find a future that provides hope.

We dedicate this podcast to Richard’s ‘tough-as-nails’ mother, Aunty Tina (Aunt, we have our fingers crossed for you and hope that you are a finalist in the Victorian Indigenous Art Awards!), and to Jamie.

Enjoy! x

To mark the 20th Anniversary of the raid, the Tasty crew are running with their strengths; they’re planning the Tasty Raid 20th Anniversary Party! Listen to our chat to find out how, when and why you should join them on dancefloor to mark the occasion.
