Mike speaks with Robbie Swan, co-founder of the Australian Sex Party, about his new book, A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Sex Party.

Part memoir and part social history, the book draws on Swan’s 25 years as a magazine editor and parliamentary lobbyist for the adult industry, sharing humorous, candid and often surreal stories from the front lines of censorship battles, politics and social change.

Bookended by the creation of the Australian Sex Party with trailblazing MP Fiona Patten, it offers a behind-the-scenes look at the people who helped challenge taboos and influence law reform in Australia.

Robbie’s Swan:  Sex, politics & Satire

part 1 end

Mike speaks with journalist, broadcaster and 2GB contributor Jason Morrison about Pauline Hanson’s warning that Australia must confront the growing threat of radical Islam or risk following the UK’s path.

Morrison raises her calls to ban burqas, tighten immigration from fundamentalist countries, and what these proposals could mean politically as One Nation’s support continues to grow.

Should couples be putting an expiry date on their relationship?

It sounds completely unromantic, but a growing 'sunset clause' trend suggests that agreeing to regular relationship check-ins could help couples stay happier for longer.

Is this a brilliant idea or are we overcomplicating love?

Karina Chapman, Dating Coach, Founder of Aligned Connections, tells Mike the idea has value, but only if couples understand the purpose behind it.

Rather than seeing it as a deadline to decide whether to stay or go, she says it should be viewed as an opportunity to intentionally reconnect. 

Relationships don't usually end because people stop loving each other overnight. They drift apart through a lack of communication, assumptions and unspoken expectations.

Karina says every couple should have regular conversations about where they're heading, what's working well and what needs attention.

It's not about putting an end date on love. It's about choosing each other.
