300 Episodes Of Generic Interviews To Kill Time While You're On The Train

About this episode

The 300th episode of Progressive Podcast Australia features discussions on various pop culture topics, politics, and a reflection on a quote related to the Israeli government's actions towards Palestinians.

We're back to keep the Progressive Podcast Australia brand alive with our 300th episode special! The show covers a wide range of topics with a bunch of pop culture stuff, a little bit of politics and some meta podcasting about podcasting. We discuss the books Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World Book by Naomi Klein and How We Love by Clementine Ford; the TV shows The Curse and The Traitors (with a focus on disability representation); and the movie Guns Akimbo. We finish the show with a quote that was featured in the Propaganda exhibition in London, which we visited in about 2010! We discuss the quote in light of the actions of the Israeli government towards Palestinians.
