About this listen

How much do you really know about the 11th of November 1975?

You’ve probably heard that famous 'Well may we say' speech made by Australian Prime Minister Gough Whitlam on the day he was sacked by the Queen’s representative ... or seen the grainy footage from the steps of old parliament house. But do you properly understand the extraordinary events leading up to the most dramatic day in Australian political history? How did The Dismissal actually happen?

This audio series takes you inside the highest circles of power to uncover pieces of this story that have never been told before ... with lessons we should never forget. Host Alex Mann seeks out new clues and perspectives about what actually happened via first-hand accounts, many previously untold, bringing to life the scandals and subplots that changed the nation forever.

An Incredible and disturbing recount of our recent history.

Wow! I loved revisiting this part of Australian political history but with the new information that has become available. Brilliant research, careful analysis and entertaining anecdotes makes it a must listen. May we never forget!

Politics, intrigue, entitlement!

This podcast has it all. I recommend for anyone interested in Gogh but also the women’s movement in Australia, political intrigue, Australian history, or just a great mystery!
