It discusses the changing perceptions of the United States in Ukraine, the importance of soft power, and the broader geopolitical consequences of supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression. In this conversation, Taylor discusses the complex historical and contemporary issues surrounding World War II, NATO's role, and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. He emphasizes the complicity of various nations in the events leading up to World War II, the potential for a new global conflict if Russia's aggression is not checked, and the importance of supporting Ukraine and its leadership under Zelensky.

Plenty of debate on TV Gold this week as Andrew Mercado and James Manning discuss: Adolescence (Netflix, 4 episodes) starring Stephen Graham as the father of a 13-year-old accused of murdering a fellow student. Long Bright River (Stan, 8 episodes) starring Amanda Seyfried as a Philadelphia police woman searching for her sister who is missing at the same time as a serial killer is at work in a rough neighbourhood where her sister lived. Running Point (Netflix, 10 episodes) is being called the US Ted Lasso. But one of our critics thinks the comedy about Kate Hudson taking over as the President of fictional basketball team LA Waves is better than that! Andrew also has a few comments about a special new Netflix documentary and two supersoaps that have both been celebrating their 40th anniversaries.

Toxic Town (Netflix, 4 episodes) is the first of two series this week set in England. Jodie Whittaker stars as one of a group of women in Corby in the Midlands that gave birth to children with physical abnormalities. They subsequently took the local council to court in a battle over compensation to prove that neglect of toxic waste was the cause. Don’t miss a super performance from the wonderful Aimee Lou Wood. Smoggie Queens (Binge/Foxtel, 6 episodes) is a hilarious comedy about the group of LGBTQ friends in Middlesbrough, northern England. The series is written by and stars Phil Dunning as the unforgettable Dickie. He gives many of the best lines though to Mark Benton’s character Mam. The White Lotus (S3 Binge/Foxtel, 8 episodes) has finally turned up on the TV Gold radar. It has taken three seasons, but we are well and truly hitched to the wagon. This season is set in Koh Samui which coincidentally is where co-host James Manning was when this episode was recorded. Some hilarious characters this season led by Jason Isaacs as a wealthy businessman whose business seems to be spiraling out of control. His family includes Parker Posey as his wife and Patrick Schwarzenegger as their eldest son. The most interesting couple are arguably Aimee Lou Wood and her older and richer partner Walton Goggins. This episode also talk about the new streaming service Tubi which is ramping up in Australia and give co-host Andrew Mercado some homework for next week.

OUTRAGEOUS: THE QUEER HISTORY OF AUSTALIAN TV, 60min., Australia Directed by Andrew Mercado Every LGBT milestone happened on Australian TV in the 1970s, years before the rest of the world. And nobody ever saw it, because the nudity, adult stories and queer themes from these TV series could never have been tolerated on commercial TV anywhere outside of Australia. This documentary event, which includes a specially edited episode of Number 96 to highlight several queer stories, will finally set the record straight. https://www.instagram.com/outrageousdoco/ Get to know the filmmaker: On the 50th anniversary of Stonewall in 2019, I kept seeing articles that detailed the biggest LGBT moments in pop culture history ever since , and Australian TV never got a mention. I started rolling that idea around in my head, and by the time of the first COVID lockdown, I was deep into it. Originally I wrote it as a book, but quickly realised it would work best as a documentary.

Season 14 is nothing if not controversial among die hard fans of A Country Practice. Some refuse to engage with it and pretend it never happened, that ACP ended with Terrence and Matron's wedding and everyone rode off into the sunset. The show got a lot of things wrong: for a start, it relocated to Victoria. It lost half its stars. It used a soft filter none of us can work out. Andrew Mercado is Australia's leading historian, and he watched it all unfold in real time in 1994. He's with us to talk about what the show wanted to be, why it didn't get there, and what TV was doing at the time.
