214: Is the party over for Sydney Mardi Gras? ft. Charlie Murphy

Tom is joined by the Charlie Murphy from Pride In Protest, to talk about the fight for Sydney Mardi Gras, as the board overrules membership votes and debate rages over whether the event is a protest or a party. (4:04) Then, why does the world seem to be turning against the queer community? And are lesbians more pro-trans than trans people?
