I spoke with Tegan Taylor and Dr Norman Swan of Coronacast on two occasions.

Once in June, when Australia's collective response to Covid-19 seemed to have sheltered us from the major health and economic effects.

I spoke to them again in early August, with my hometown of Melbourne deep in weeks of lockdown.

Both times the pair brought the facts, analysis and good humour that has made Coronacast a must listen for so many Australians.

Warning, there are some adult themes part way through the episode that I should've mentioned in my introduction.

The print version is available at SMH.
