Marking Jeff's run for Parliament at the West Australian state election today, this is a special extra to episode 78 with Jeff Pow and Michelle McManus. It’s a stretch of eight minutes or so that starts with Jeff describing the extraordinary and instructive experience of the day Southampton burned. And it closes with a collective reflection on notions of responsibility, stewardship and the long game.

Title slide: The burned out shell of the historic Southampton Homestead (pic: Anthony James).

Music:
The Great Unwind, by William Tyler off his album Modern Country.
