For a special live launch of season 2, Clare and Yves are joined by Professor Jenny Hocking, the driving force behind the campaign to unlock the Palace Letters and expose the truth about the Dismissal. Jenny reveals how she contracted archive fever from writing biographies of powerful men, and explains why the history revealed by the letters between Sir John Kerr and the Palace is "far worse than she'd imagined". Plus she shares her dirty little archive secret - a family skeleton in the closet that shocked Gough Whitlam.
Recorded live online with an audience via zoom, 20 August 2020.
