Each week, Luke Grant chats with an ordinary Australian who has achieved extraordinary things. For more than 80 years, the story of Vivian Bullwinkel has stood as a quiet but powerful symbol of courage, resilience, and service. A World War II nurse and the only survivor of the Bangka Island tragedy, where 21 of her fellow nurses were killed by Japanese soldiers, she endured surviving a shipwreck, enemy fire, and three years as a prisoner of war. Yet she returned home not in bitterness, but in service, dedicating her life to caring for others and honouring those who were lost. In August 2023, Vivian Bullwinkel became the first woman to be honoured with a statue at the Australian War Memorial - a long-overdue recognition of her sacrifice, and the vital role of wartime nurses in Australia’s history. Luke chats with Jenny Davis, an author and acclaimed theatre performer awarded an Order of Australia for her contributions, to learn about the incredible story of Vivian's life.

Peter Dutton has promised to revoke the lease of Chinese-owned company, Landbridge, from the strategic Port of Darwin if he wins the election and appoint an Australian government-approved operator. Mr Dutton’s decision to secure the critical infrastructure comes as he seeks to shift the election campaign back to national security amid growing geopolitical uncertainty. However, in an attempt to spoil Mr Dutton’s policy announcement, Mr Albanese called into ABC Darwin on Friday night to claim Labor was going to do something about the port without revealing what the government’s policy was. Shadow Home Affairs Minister, Senator James Patterson, joins Luke Grant to chat about the details of the policy and discuss the Prime Minister’s “trainwreck” radio Interview.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
