CONTENT WARNING: This Episode of Doin' Time contains audio images of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who have died and graphic discussion of deaths in custody and racial profiling. Today on the show Marisa interviewed Dr Vicki Sentas, Associate Professor, Faculty of Law and Justice at UNSW Sydney. Marisa invited Vicki on the show to alert listeners about a landmark class action highlighting horrors of strip searches, and hear an overview of what has happened to date. Following a class action led by leading law firm Slater and Gordon and Redfern Legal Centre, a judgment was handed down in the Supreme Court of NSW which awarded significant damages to the lead plaintiff, Raya Meredith, for an unlawful strip search undertaken by NSW Police at the Splendour in the Grass Festival in 2018. After that, Marisa interviewed Cath Strong from the Defend Dissent Coalition who also did some brilliant MCing at last Tuesday's rally at Parliament House which had a number of speakers discussing new police powers. Cath joined Marisa to give a report back and talk about the Justice Legislation Amendment Bill, focusing on draconian anti-protest laws the Allan Government has been proposing. Finally, Marisa interviewed Dr Tamar Hopkins: Expert on racial profiling data, and Founder Centre Against Racial Profiling. She discussed findings, based on an analysis of Victoria Police's own 2024 data, revealing that Aboriginal people are now 15 times more likely to be searched and 10 times more likely to have force used against them than white people. Racialised communities are subjected to over-policing that frequently escalates into police violence.

“NSW Police admitted to unlawfully strip searching a young woman at a music festival — forcing her to remove her tampon. Then they tried to deny it ever happened. In this episode of The Slippery Slope, I unpack the gaslighting, the cover-up, and the court ruling that could expose thousands more illegal searches. If you think this is just one bad apple… think again.”This is just my opinion:Intro song is 'Bring Me Down'Buy Me a CoffeeThe Slippery Slope SpotifyJ Fallon SpotifyThe Slippery Slope Apple PodcastsThe Slippery Slope YouTube
Today was all about burgers – and we went in hard. GQ dropped their list of the best burgers in the world, with three Aussie contenders making the cut. Naturally, it turned into a full-blown burger-off with the team (and the callers) throwing down their personal faves, from Mary’s in Newtown to Fergburger in Queenstown. Things got messy with talk of truffle aioli, fake meat, Splendour burger runs, and even Albo’s beloved Frango’s. Safe to say, we were starving by the end.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A history of the dandy from below, from Beau Brummell and Baudelaire to Bowie and Bolan... and beyond. The historical figure of the dandy has commonly been described as an upper-class gentleman, often exemplified by well-known men such as Beau Brummell, Charles Baudelaire, Oscar Wilde, and Max Beerbohm. But there is a broader history to be told about the dandy - one that incorporates unknown men from the lower strata of society. The Dandy: A People's History of Sartorial Splendour (Oxford UP, 2025) constitutes the first ever history of those dandies who emanated from the less privileged layers of the populace - the lowly clerks, shop assistants, domestic servants, and labourers who increasingly during the modern age have emerged as style-conscious men about town. Peter Andersson shows that dandyism is far from just an elite phenomenon represented by famous poets and artists. He shows how dandyism as a popular youth subculture grew into an influential cultural movement, from the days of Beau Brummell in the early 19th century to the age of mods in the 1960s. A series of fascinating in-depth studies of the wide variety of dandy subcultures that have surfaced around the world in the last two centuries tell the story of how the shaping of fashions and the image of men became increasingly democratized, with the arbiters of taste increasingly coming from the other end of the social spectrum. Along the way, we encounter such long-forgotten groups as the mashers, the knuts, the Paris gandins and the Berlin transgender dandies, alongside more well-known but unexplored figures like the zoot suiter, the teddy boy, and the New Romantic. Above all, this is a story of how fundamental aspects of modern culture such as fashion, style, and conduct have been shaped from below just as much as from above. It is a story that shows how the problematic business of young men trying to find an identity is an enduring phenomenon - and one sadly often accompanied by innocent victims along the way. Peter K. Andersson is a historian and writer, with a PhD in History from Lund University in Sweden. He has been a visiting scholar at the universities of London, Oxford, and Bologna, and has written extensively on Victorian cultural history, urban history, and popular culture.

On this day in history, Anne Boleyn reached the pinnacle of her triumph. After six years of struggle, scandal, and seismic political and religious change, Anne Boleyn was crowned Queen of England in a glittering ceremony at Westminster Abbey. Dressed in purple velvet, barefoot and crowned with the Crown of St Edward—a crown usually reserved for monarchs—Anne processed through a sea of blue cloth, surrounded by nobles, clergy, and the hopes of a dynasty. This wasn't just a coronation. It was a carefully orchestrated show of legitimacy, power, and divine approval. Join me as I take you through every detail of this extraordinary day—from the riverside arrivals and the grand abbey ceremony to the 80-dish banquet and Anne's moment of glory beneath a cloth of estate… all while the king watched from the shadows. This was Anne Boleyn at her height. Her triumph. Her crowning moment.

In the 1960s, Natalie Wood was one of the world's leading actress, her star shining as bright as Elizabeth Taylor's. She'd been acting since she was a small child, appearing in movies like Miracle on 34th Street. She'd starred opposite James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause, and she'd been linked romantically to Warren Beatty, Michael Caine, Elvis Presley, and Dennis Hopper. And her husband, actor Robert Wagner, may have gotten away with killing her off of Catalina Island in 1981, during a weekend getaway the couple shared with none other than Christoper Walken.

Claudia Karvan joined the show and had us all starstruck—especially Tim, who went full fanboy. She opened up about her wild Splendour in the Grass memories (yes, she was in the Nirvana mosh pit), being hoisted into the sky by a hot air balloon (kind of), and the deep family revelations she uncovered on Who Do You Think You Are?. From orphans to balloonists and suffragettes, her ancestors seriously delivered. Oh, and she absolutely crushed Quick Draw… even if she called us out for being demons.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Screenwriter and playwright Abi Morgan has worked across a diverse array of themes and genres for more than 25 years. She wrote the television series The Split, a domestic drama involving divorce lawyers, and created the psychological Netflix series Eric. Her other television credits include Sex Traffic, for which she won a BAFTA for Best Drama serial in 2005, and The Hour, the television news drama which earned her an Emmy award in 2012. Her film credits include The Iron Lady, which starred Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher; historical drama Suffragette; and Shame, co-written with the director Steve McQueen. Her recent book This Is Not A Pity Memoir recounts her husband's recovery after serious illness, and her own treatment for cancer. Abi Morgan tells John Wilson about her childhood in a theatrical family; her father was the director Gareth Morgan and her mother is the actor Pat England. She chooses the author, screenwriter and director Nora Ephron as an important influence, and particularly the film Heartburn which Ephron adapted from her semi-autobiographical divorce novel Heartburn. Abi Morgan also recalls the work of television screenwriter Kay Mellor, whose series Band Of Gold and Playing The Field also influenced her own writing. She describes how seeing an exhibition of the work of artist Cornelia Parker, including her installation Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View, inspired some of Abi's early theatre work including her plays Splendour and The Mistress Contract. Producer Edwina Pitman
In this episode, we explore the mysterious death of Natalie Wood, the Hollywood star whose life was tragically cut short under circumstances that still spark debate. Found drowned off the coast of Catalina Island in 1981, questions remain about what really happened that fateful night on the yacht Splendour. Was it a tragic accident, or is there more to the story?
Tina Arena popped in and absolutely tore the roof off. We’re talking truth bombs, taped boobs, and tour dates, betch. She’s hitting the road around Australia through April and May for her Don’t Ask Again tour (yes, the hits are coming), and she'll be lighting up the Australian Idol grand finale this Sunday night on Channel 7. We covered everything from Splendour memories and Matt Corby duets to keeping the dream alive without chasing the fantasy. And look—Tina says if you’re not in this game for the right reason? Get out. Queen energy only. Also, she might call us next time she’s on mushrooms. Fingers crossed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 2022, we caught up with producer and DJ Dillon Francis ahead of his Splendour in the Grass set. We cover the perils of high-altitude paint balling, travel conundrums at local NZ airports, and who listeners should have seen at that year's festival (immediately before Max got the worst bout of 'VID).Discover more new music and hear your favourite artists with 78 Amped on Instagram and TikTok.

The opulent halls of 17th and 18th-century Versailles were not just filled with dazzlingly dressed courtiers and royal intrigue. They also positively buzzed with scientific discovery and innovation, making the French royal court a crossroads of science and power. Professor Suzannah Lipscomb visits a fascinating exhibition at London's Science Museum which peels back the gilded layers of the famous palace to reveal its lesser-known role as a hotbed of scientific thinking. Along the way, she hears about innovative and dangerous new surgeries, sees the Sun King's actual pet rhinoceros as well as the world's most famous watch, designed for Marie Antoinette.Presented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.
