Today we are talking about "disaster communism". Can we glimpse a radically different society in the moments of communal care following a disaster? I speak to Nick Southall who has written a book on the subject, and to Andrew George from Lismore about the community responses that have popped up there since the 2022 floods.

Today we talk to longtime Aboriginal activist Wayne "Koko" Wharton to get a report back from the recent First Nations delegation to the militarised colonial zone of Kanaky (New Caledonia).

Today we talk to Coedie McAvoy aka Gurridyula. The third anniversary of the Waddananggu culutural ceremony on Adani's mine lease is coming up soon - an incredible effort. We get an update from there, also hear about what happened last week down in Canberra where he has been trying to meet with the Environment Minister for a yarn. And we chat about exciting events coming up in Brisbane to celebrate the three year anniversary.

This week's show is a zine special! We speak to Asger, Bianca and Emily about their personal experiences of zine making and the importance of this simple medium for the anarchist, queer and travelling streetkid cultures.

Today we are talking about "lawfare" by the state against activists - tying people up in endless court cases to restrict their political activities. I speak to Margie Pestorius, Hannah Doole and Dave Sprigg about their own experiences with police and courts.

On today's show we are talking public transport! To celebrate 50c fares beginning in Brisbane this week, I talk to Roman Gaffa from Translink, Peter Allen from the RBTU Union, Michael Berkman from the Greens, and academic Kelly Bertolaccini about the meaning of this dramatic change, and the value of public transport.
