In this bonus episode for Patreon subscribers, former NSW federal senator and Greens legend Lee Rhiannon joins the show. What has she been doing since retiring? Why do people need to know more about the situations in Palestine and India? How did she get into politics? And what is the state of the left and the Greens party - should it aim to be a professional or a protest party, and how should it be engaging with environmental and social issues?
