Joan Didion #2
(Reloading this as version 1 had a lot of glitches)
Welcome back to the first podcast of 2022!
A fair bit has occured since Eliza and Geraldine last sat down for a chat. The Omicron variant of COVID is raging and scratched a bit of sheen off Eliza's earlier optimism.
Two giants of the 20th century died over the Christmas break: South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu and American journalist & author Desmond Tutu.
And Geraldine has explored regional Australia and the stories that underpin our national consciousness.
