On this week's podcast:

From the Democracy Institute in Washington DC, Patrick Basham explains his blacklisting by the Ukrainian Centre for Countering Disinformation. He is one of approximately 79 targeted by the Ukraine Government. 

Let’s ensure that sort of thing doesn’t happen here.

We extensively cover a wide range of concerns; China, Trudeau, Ardern and Hunter Biden’s laptop.

We also make  comparison with Australia over the direction of both countries' governance.

We finish up with a look at high fashion in the war zone.

And, of course, The Mailroom.
