Ep 147: Tana Douglas

What goes on tour stays on tour - unless you're the the first woman roadie in the world At just fifteen, Tana Douglas ran away to the circus that was rock 'n' roll in the 1970s, taking a job with a young and upcoming band called AC/DC. While still a teenager she headed to the UK and later the US to work for a who's who of bands and artists. Life on the road was exhilarating, hard work, occasionally surreal but never dull, particularly when you're the only woman in the road crew and the #metoo movement is still 40 years away.

Whether wrangling Iggy Pop across Europe, climbing trusses while seven months pregnant, drinking shots of JD with Bon Scott backstage at Wembley, or donning a tailor-made suit to do lights for Elton at Windsor Castle, Tana did it all.

Loud is rock 'n' roll like you've never seen it before, by a woman who not only survived the all-male world on the road but climbed to the top and lived to tell the tale. Tana joins our editors to talk about it all and more.

Ep 209- Celeste Liddle (Greens Candidate for Cooper)

Ep 209- Celeste Liddle (Greens Candidate for Cooper)

While the Liberals panic over losing affluent inner-city seats to the Independents, the Labor Party faces the same age old challenge of The Greens taking their urban working class electorates. Celeste Liddle is a candidate gunning to do just that, in perhaps the most marginal Labor seat in the country. A unionist, feminist author and a member of the party's Indigenous caucus known as ‘The Black Greens’ - Liddle could easily become the newest MP for Cooper, a division that Labor only held onto by 1% in 2016.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep 208- Rebekha Sharkie (Centre Alliance)

Ep 208- Rebekha Sharkie (Centre Alliance)

This week’s guest, Rebekha Carina Che Sharkie represents the Division of Mayo, just south and east of Adelaide. A Ten Pound Pom who as a kid would sleep under tables in the rural pubs of South Australia while her dad played drums. She initially approached the Liberals for pre-selection a decade ago, but was told that a single mother would be a bad look for the party. So, she joined the Centre Alliance and got herself elected as an independent in 2016. After surviving the Parliamentary citizenship crisis a year later, she's been re-elected twice since - and it doesn't look like she's going anywhere.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep 206- Hanabeth Luke (Independent Candidate for Page)

This week, Clancy and Errol talk to another Independent Candidate hoping to disrupt the status quo at the 2022 Federal Election. Hanabeth Luke is a scientist and Marine Rescue volunteer, who teaches at Southern Cross University, while also raising a family in Evans Head. She making a run at the marginal electorate of Page, currently held by the National Party. After 6 weeks of flood rescues and recovery from Byron to Grafton, Hanabeth has a lot to say about the current government, and it seems the rest of her constituents are also fed up with the way things are. The editors ask Hanabeth what her plans are if it comes down to a hung parliament, and do these Independents answer to higher powers?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
