Remembering Derryn Hinch, Robbie Katter on the $60B Olympics, & Bogus Backlash

This week on Bonafide: Queensland MP Robbie Katter makes the case that Australia can't afford a $60 billion Brisbane Olympics, and weighs in on nuclear power and water infrastructure. Craig Willis, who worked alongside Derryn Hinch for 42 years, joins Luke to remember the legendary broadcaster following his passing this week — the jail term for naming a pedophile priest, the on-air sackings, and the friendship that lasted five decades. Tech commentator Trevor Long breaks down what really happened in the Telstra network outage and the media pile-on that followed. Channel Seven's UK correspondent Ben Downie covers the UK's incoming prime minister, Nigel Farage's chaotic by-election, Prince Harry's tense return to the UK, and the latest on the Prince Andrew investigation.And it's Truckie Tuesday 124 — Rod Hannifey is joined by Tony Crook from GME to talk UHF radio etiquette, Australian manufacturing, and why the family behind GME says they'd rather shut the doors than build overseas.⚠ This episode includes a brief, non-graphic mention of a distressing current news story involving the death of a child, and Derryn Hinch's own disclosure of childhood sexual abuse.
