Don’t Charge Your Phone Overnight, A Real Warning Or Tech Myth?

In this episode of The Quicky, we speak with our resident tech expert, Trevor Long, to find out the fact from fiction when it comes to our devices.

Sam Kerr's Reverse Racism - It's Not A Thing
Sam Kerr. We know her. We love her. But our love was called into question this week, when it was revealed that in January last year, after our star Matilda had been out celebrating, a drunken taxi ride in Twickenham ended with her throwing up and allegedly arguing with the cabbie over the fare.
Police were then called where Kerr reportedly got into an altercation with a white police officer, allegedly calling him a 'stupid white bastard'. She's since been charged with racially aggravated harassment.
But what exactly constitutes racism? Can a person of colour be racist towards a white person?
In this episode of The Quicky we take a look at exactly this with Craig Foster, who admits to reevaluating his initial opinions of Sam following the news.

Customer Reviews
Too many adverts
Love The Quicky, love Claire Murphy but, too many adverts! 7 adverts wrapped around an 18 minute podcast is too much, and would put me off listening to future episodes.
Laughable
It’s like reading New Idea to get ‘the news’. Ignorant, white centric, privileged lens. This media organisation keeps cis white women in their superficial, comfortable place so that no change happens. Especially for minorities. Embarrassing. Would be embarrassing to work at this tabloid company.
Top Show Thought Provoking!
I listen to this show everyday. It’s an invaluable part of my morning routine. I love how the topics are varied and have original thoughts. I really like when they go into further detail on a news story that I haven’t wrapped my head around.
