15: Rat Boyfriends, Climate Scientists for President, and the Importance of Hair Ties

This week we chat about Rising: Melbourne's international arts festival, in particular the brilliant Counting & Cracking. Doctor Who comes up with its brilliant new star Ncuti Gatwa, and we dive into the delicacy that is a rat boyfriend. Plus, in the news is QLD's trial of 50c public transit, Mexico's new president, and and Indian airline's attempts to make air travel safer for women. And to top it all off, we bring back Broadly Diva.
