PODCAST
LATE NIGHT LIVE WITH PHILLIP ADAMS
ABC RADIO NATIONAL
ABC.NET.AU/RADIONATIONAL
Before Fred and Ginger there was Fred and Adele, pictured, two siblings from Omaha who shared a 27-year theatrical career, and revolutionised the dance and song world of the 1920s. The Astaires were adored by audiences, feted by royalty, and courted by social elites everywhere they went. From the start Adele was the more natural performer, while Fred had to practise hard to hone his trademark timing, but ultimately his skills surpassed those of his sister, and he formed an on-screen partnership with Ginger Rogers Late Night Live talks to theatrical historian Kathleen Riley's about her book The Astaires.

360 DOCUMENTARIES: SMOKERS AND A PLEASURE WORTH DYING FOR
10AM, ABC RADIO NATIONAL
SMOKING was once regarded as both a pleasure and a right, and wherever you looked, advertisers had a brand for you. Whether you consider yourself an international jet-setter or cowboy, sophisticated gent or regular Aussie larrikin, the enticement was there to light up — but no longer. Smoking is still legal and brings great pleasure to millions, but smokers are just more conflicted now. Today's cigarette packets are decorated with repulsive pictures of gangrenous feet and victims of mouth cancer— but are you going to give up? If you beat addiction, would you be the same person?
