Description

It's the biggest fight in the smallest state. So how do people in Tassie feel about the new AFL stadium, now it has the votes in the Parliament to happen?

And Bruce Lehrmann's had another loss, this time in trying to challenge his failed defamation suit. So with the full federal court now backing the original ruling that on the balance of probabilities he raped his then colleague Brittany Higgins, is the case officially over?

Plus, we unpack the scandal around a viral song sung by what a lot of people reckon sounds like an "AI clone" of Jorja Smith. 

And could improving accessibility in netball also help with the umpire shortage? 

Listen now: 

01:20 - What happened with Bruce Lehrmann's appeal?

07:31 - The future of the Hobart stadium

14:06 - Does 'I Run' infringe copyright?

25:01 - Umpiring in a wheelchair

Guests: 

  • Jade Toomey, reporter, ABC Canberra
  • Richard Savery, Senior research fellow, University of Canberra
