- Very sorry this podcast is coming to an end!
Thank you both for very civilised discussions on very interesting topics.
Ah. Free speech. Intelligent debate and discussion. Just when we’re being told respectful debate and discussion is dead.

Apple Podcasts5Jonesy1900Australia2 years ago - Professor Aroney’s session
What an astonishing podcast outlining the possible pitfalls of the proposed constitutional amendment. I wish this had been more widely publicised. We’re told that the proposed change is minimalist, just a polite gesture of recognition of ATSI peoples which is obviously not true. This change could have far reaching and dangerous impacts on how Australian government works.
Thanks to the professor and an excellent host.

The Iain Benson interview was brilliant. Iain is absolutely amazing. I didn’t really know who he was, but I sure do now. This one interview has given me so much to think about and through. Much appreciated.
