Weekly Wrap 761: What if your life was a pie?

On a grey city footpath someone has discarded a meat pie, but it can barely be seen beneath a frantic milling flock of around 22 grey feral pigeons.

Monday 23 to Sunday 29 December 2024 was my last full week for the year. I was wondering what photo to use for this final Weekly Wrap, and then Fate provided exactly what I needed. This discarded pie represents your world, Good People. Peck peck peck.

Weekly Wrap 760: Two podcasts, and for some reason a pub

A view across a city intersection on a rainy day. In the centre of the frame is the Great Southern Hotel, Sydney, a five-storey red-brick Art Deco construction nestled between an modern glass office building and a narrow Victorian-era four-storey business building. Two tram tracks run from behind the viewer through the intersection and to the right.

During my week of Monday 16 to Sunday 22 December 2024 I managed to knock off two podcast episodes, a newsletter, and a bunch of planning, despite suffering from a mild cold. I’m so pleased with myself that I’m posting a photo of a pub from five years ago.

Weekly Wrap 759: Am I the perfect parrot perch, perchance?

A male Australian king parrot, a medium-sized bird with a bright red head and belly with back and wings in various shades of green. He is standing on a man's left hand, the palm of which holds a selection of seeds to eat.

During my week of Monday 9 to Sunday 15 December 2024 a certain king parrot decided that I am now his feeding perch. I finally wrapped up the spring series of The 9pm Edict podcast. And my injuries continued to heal quite quickly. I’ll definitely tell you more about them soon.

Weekly Wrap 757: Welcome the Parrots of Productivity

Two tree stumps. On the left one, the taller of the two, are two Australian king parrots. The male has a bright red head and belly with back and wings in various shades of green. The female is a paler green with olive sections, and a red belly, although overall she is more drab.

My week of Monday 25 November to Sunday 1 December 2024 was finally a bit more productive. There’s yet another podcast. There were billable hours. And most importantly, we’re in the final stages of this season’s crowdfunder.
