How Good's ... our 'ANZAC Spirit'?

Rightly or wrongly, the events of Gallipoli have shaped our national identity for over 100 years.In 1915, Australia was a newly federated nation still on its P plates, searching desperately for a sense of self. But what does the ANZAC Spirit mean to us in 2021? Why are we ripping Victoria Cross medals off our most decorated soldiers when we could just chalk it up to the mysterious "Fog of War"? How do we properly install the Spirit into the next generation of milky-handed recruits (presumably via an iOS update)? What even is "mateship" anyway?Is it OK for left-wing social commentators to tweet controversial views about our ANZACs, or should we continue to exile them from Australia until they recite all 4 verses of Advance Australia Fair at gunpoint? And how can nightclubs tastefully leverage the ANZAC Spirit in two-for-one drinks promotions? Featuring more unfiltered insights from prominent social commentator and Aussie comedian, Luke Heggie.Spicy stings courtesy of audio producer Tim "T-Dog" Eldridge.
