    Aug 14 2018
    It’s a walk in the park. This expression is used to describe something that should be easy, but is it really that easy to walk through a park? Our experiences in the city can differ greatly between individuals, and for some, a walk through the park isn’t so peaceful. Hosted by Verity Firth and produced by Ollie Henderson, Miles Herbert and Ninah Kopel.

    After #MeToo: Counting Dead Women
    Aug 28 2018
    We started making this episode in May when the annual count of women who had died due to violence in Australia was 24. We finished making this episode in August when the count was 41. And in the time it took us to finish this episode, and upload it to your podcast feed, another woman has been allegedly murdered. This is about counting dead women- why we do it and what it means. Hosted by Verity Firth and produced by Ollie Henderson, Miles Herbert and Ninah Kopel. Thank you to everyone who helped create Destroy the Joint and Counting Dead Women, whose work inspired this episode.

    After #MeToo: Condition of Entry
    Sep 11 2018
    They're all around us. They're in your family, or your circle of friends. Maybe you work with them. You could even be one. Immigrant women are a significant portion of our population. So what does #MeToo mean to them? This episode is about women who come to Australia for a new life, only to find themselves trapped in their old one. Or women who come for an education, and find themselves having to learn about sexual violence and consent.

    Podcast Extra: #MeToo and Defamation - Live Panel
    Nov 28 2018
    Media outlets have long felt the pressure of Australia’s defamation laws – some of the toughest in the world – claiming stifled freedom of speech as a damaging symptom. This argument is now resonating in the context of #MeToo, revealing gaps in a legal system that fails to protect women. We spoke with journalist Jenna Price, lawyer Sophie Dawson, and Industry Professor Nareen Young to explore if our laws are silencing women.
