The Media’s Role In The Federal Election; Journeying Through Deep Time To The Otherlands; Why Everyone Else Is Wrong With Comedian Andrew Hansen
Dr Chris Wallace discusses the media's role and performance in the federal election campaign and previews Labor's chances of winning. Chris is the author of, How To Win An Election, and is Associate Professor at the 50/50 By 2030 Foundation at the University of Canberra. Scottish paleobiologist Thomas Halliday joins Amy for an in-depth conversation about his debut book, Otherlands: A World in the Making. Thomas takes us on a journey into deep time and introduces us to the awe-inducing ecosystems, animals, plants, and places that existed – from Alaska during the Pleistocene (20,000 years ago) to Australia during the Ediacaran (550 million years ago). Plus, songwriter and comedian Andrew Hansen (The Chaser, CNNNNN, Stories From Oz) stops by to talk about the craft of comedy and his new stage show, Everyone Else Is Wrong, which he will perform at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
