Let's talk!

This week it was revealed that in the lead up to the federal election in 2022, Dr Monique Ryan was told she had unelectable hair! So, Jo and Serpil Senelmis discuss their physical attributes and what they think would be electable and non-electable about them.

Broad Radio’s own Diana Nguyen has adapted an Alice Pung book for the MTC called Laurinda, so we find out what it’s like to see her work on stage, to have an Asian cast and what it’s like working as a clown doctor in her spare time!

And as it is a year since the Taliban took power in Afghanistan Jo and Serpil talk about the difficulties for women still there, for the young women who are going to school undercover and share first hand experiences of how access to education shapes the life and the freedom of women.
