Excellent Question Elizabeth

Join Mitch McTaggart on a hilarious journey through Australian television. Mitch looks at conspiracy theories and how they've evolved on TV, the "whiteness" of Australian drama, and the constant plagiarism of ideas between television networks.

Can't Reach The Hospital TV Remote

Mitch examines one of the most infamous Australian examples of the 24-hour news cycle taking TV news reporting too far, and wonders if anyone actually learned any of the all-too-obvious lessons from the exercise. He also turns a baleful eye towards the stereotypical complaints boomers express about everything wrong with today's world.
