I love it!
Always interesting and well researched and the language!!! I’m still gliding after hearing King Farouk described as “an appalling, fat wastrel” 🤣
Another Great episode.
How good is David Marr? No topic is off limits, he’s afraid of nothing or no-one. Forthright, very knowledgeable & independent with interesting subjects every night. He tells things as they really are which makes a refreshing change from the media. ABC did well with their choice
How good is the 2026 Barry Jones episode?! The brilliance that pours out of the man continues into the 9th decade! Makes me wistful for visionary politicos in an era of shallow sloganeers that infests Australian politics presently. Thank you, this is an episode to cherish.
