Under Cover

In this episode, we look at male contraceptive pills, Indonesian AFL, music and life after lockdown.

Show Notes

In the second episode, we look into:

Male Contraception- How NOT to get pregnant. A problem that had no solution until the 1960s when The Pill changed everything for women. But that was the last millennium. Why hasn't there been a male pill in the six decades since? 
All this time, the only birth control option for men has been the condom. But that could soon change.

Indonesian AFL- Sport is a powerful way of bringing people from all walks of life together - and that’s exactly what one small Melbourne football club is doing. The Krakatoa's is a community football club affiliated with AFL Indonesia. It’s encouraging Indonesians living in Australia to play Aussie rules football.

Music Industry in COVID- The last two years of Covid lockdowns in Melbourne have been a challenge for everyone, affecting us all in different ways. One area that was hit pretty hard was the music industry. Clubs shut, venues weren't able to host shows, and it left artists in a pretty fragile space. We hear the story of a Melbourne musician to find out how he got through the limitations of lockdown with no gigs and no audiences.
