“Big Ideas is usually an interesting program. But this episode is full of wild and inaccurate assumptions. How dull.
It’d be a no star rating if it was possible to give zero stars.”

“There doesn’t seem to be a fundamentally inclusive panel on many of these discussions. The way in which many of your presenters disregard ancient civilizations and indigenous practices, essentially minimizing them in favor of western Christian ideals and ‘virtue’…society existed prior to...”Read full review »

“This podcast covers various topics of significance in a long format. This allows for decent analysis and comparisons.
Many episodes are recorded live and have audience questions which add value.
Well worth it!”

“Your AFL story forgot (??) to mention they make all those $$$mil while paying peppercorn rent on prime real estate (home grounds on public land) provided originally on the basis of ‘not for profit’ sports clubs. Time to make the ALF pay for the privilege.”

“There are some scientifically rigorous and interesting talks, but most speakers chosen are aimed at getting all the brownie points from the far left identity politics movement. How we must now focus on “age-ist discrimination” has been the straw that’s broken the camels back for me.”

“• EPISODE: “Law In A Time Of War”
In which “Law And War”, as named in the outro, seems to be an American publication. Dr Bond’s book is “Law In War”.
A trifling error perhaps, but I’m sure it means a lot to Dr Bond (and possibly her publisher).

Particularly the panel episodes which are more often a few men and the male host, and while there may be some other diversity on the panel, which is excellent, the ABC could surely put some more...”Read full review »
