BIG TALK: The Whitlam Dismissal PART ONE

With the 50-year anniversary of the Whitlam era having just passed, we’re diving into why this moment still has everyone talking.

In part one, we peel back the story of the man who tried to reshape Australia faster than the country could catch its breath and how that boldness created one of the most fascinating political rollercoasters we’ve ever had.

From Medibank to no-fault divorce, free uni to ending conscription, Whitlam arrives in 1972 and immediately begins rewriting the national script. But the pace, the ambition, and the battles with a hostile Senate set the stage for a showdown no one could have predicted.

This episode takes you from his historic 1972 win, through the reforms, all the way to the surprising snap election just 17 months later.
