    Crime: For Fluff's Sake

    Today we are talking about everyone's favourite topic - DOGS! That may have been click bait because we actually take a bit of a delve into animal cruelty - what it is, what it covers and who investigates it. We tell a fair few fluffy stories about the little creatures we love (a little smoodle called Norman, mainly) and implore you to report any complaints to RSPCA if you see something that just doesn't look right. We get so much love from our little furry friends (all creatures, great and small - does that trigger anyone to that ad a few years ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO5qXw-WTDk). Come along with us - this one is short, sweet and a little serious somewhere around 10 minutes. Enjoy! ----------------------- Show notes: If you want to report an instance of animal cruelty, please visit RSCPA's website at https://rspcavic.org/services/inspectorate/report-cruelty/  Sources for today's ep are: - https://agriculture.vic.gov.au/livestock-and-animals/livestock-health-and-welfare/report-animal-cruelty - https://agriculture.vic.gov.au/livestock-and-animals/animal-welfare-victoria/pocta-act-1986/about-the-prevention-of-cruelty-to-animals-legislation - https://content.legislation.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/2020-04/86-46aa096%20authorised.pdf - https://www.sentencingcouncil.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/2019-08/Animal_Cruelty_Offences_in_Victoria.pdf - https://www.sentencingcouncil.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/2019-08/Animal_Cruelty_Offences_in_Victoria_Factsheet.pdf - https://www.armstronglegal.com.au/criminal-law/vic/offences/aggravated-cruelty/ - https://www.gotocourt.com.au/criminal-law/vic/animal-cruelty-offences/#:~:text=The%20offence%20of%20animal%20cruelty,to%20%2496%2C614%20for%20a%20corporation) ------------- Music: Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com DISCLAIMER: https://www.intheknowpodcast.com/disclaimer

    Interview: Lawyer Life

    How the heck is it March already?? We are asking ourselves the same question...it has been a busy week but we managed to squeeze in a quick chat with the lovely Maddy, a Brisbane based employment lawyer. Maddy takes us through her experiences as a young lawyer, navigating the workplace after graduation and getting involved. Maddy came out as trans in 2019 and gives us such an eloquent insight into being a trans woman while also being a working professional. Her story is inspiring and we walked away feeling both invigorated and educated. We cannot wait for you to listen! Thank you to Maddy for her time, openness and wisdom. --------------- Show notes (two of the wonderful organisations Maddy is a part of): - Out for Australia: https://www.outforaustralia.org/  - Queensland Law Society - Future Leaders Committee ---------------  If this episode has brought anything up for you and/or you feel like you would like to talk to someone, please contact one of the following organisations: Thorne Harbour Health, Victoria’s largest LGBTI health organisation serving the health needs of LGBTIQ communities to ensure all gender, sex, and sexually diverse individuals are treated with dignity and can participate fully in society.
