About the episode

COVID has utterly consumed our attention for the past year, but it's time to reignite the "Big Australia" debate.There's a lot to be worried about. For starters, our rapidly ageing population and workforce. By 2050, the life expectancy will be nudging 90. Can you imagine being served a piccolo by a 70-year-old barista?How will we deal with increasing urban congestion? More lightrail? Can we convince our millions of unemployed Arts graduates to move to regional areas? Will coastal erosion destroy the Hemsworth brothers' property portfolios? Is Harry Triguboff already eyeing development opportunities on the Three Sisters?Featuring more unfiltered insights from prominent social commentator and Melbourne Comedy Festival fan favourite, Luke Heggie.Spicy stings courtesy of audio producer Tim "T-Dog" Eldridge.
