273. *SPECIAL* Mike with Guest Fiona Booth
273. *SPECIAL* Mike with Guest Fiona Booth. This is a conversation recorded on Sunday 23rd November 2025. I don't often break from convention and throw in an extra show but this one is important because it's time sensitive. We only have a short time to put in submissions to the NTC about reforms to the NHVAS and I'm amazed we've got to this point without widespread outrage. Please have a listen and put in a quick submission. It's not that hard to do.
