Spot on
This show always nails it . You guys rock and i cant wait til you take the joint back. Its not ABOUT indigenous affairs like its a thing, its ABOUT life , culture and negotiating the contemporary landscape, from a perspective that is informed by indigeneity. These are the real australian voices and should be the leading voices of our times. more honest about the past , more clearsighted abt the future.
Last show one guest corrected Turncoat re the radical option, itd be sending the colonists home. I totally agree. It took indonesia 300 years to get rid of the dutch. Its not too late for Australia. Perhaps the discourse needs to embrace that kind of edge it might help people appreciate the middle better. <3
Listen to them, peeps!
Did you really use the term Aborigines
In an episode about raising the age, one of your guest uses a slur against Aboriginal/first nation people. Absolutely disgusted at the lack of consideration and lack of education. If I could give no stars I would. Do better.
Essential listening
For anyone who wants to know about indigenous culture and issues, this intelligent, thoughtful show is essential listening.
