Episode 134 - The Whitlam Dismissal Part 1 (1974-1975)

The 1975 Constitutional Crisis has played a part in the Australian psyche in much the same way that Ned Kelly has: the main players in the game are either saint or sinner, depending on your pre-conceived biases and preferences. But what actually happened? With the recent release of the Palace Letters tot he public, more of a clue to the inner workings of the Crisis has been revealed - though whether that makes things clearer or not is another question. Join Holly and Matthew as they navigate the waters of the Constitutional Crisis, and the events that led up to its necessity.Main Theme music – Kevin MacLeod"Slow Ticking Clock" – Kevin MacLeodUsed under a Creative Commons license.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weird-crap-in-australia--2968350/support.
