The story was reported in The Age: “A sign condemning violence against women and children erected on Phillip Island after the death of local mother Samantha Fraser has been vandalised.

The roadside billboard, erected by Westernport Water as part of a local campaign to fight family violence, has been defaced four times since it was put up more than a month ago.”

Ant talks with Tash, and the circumstances around the vandalism, Samantha’s tragic death, and what’s next.

No brainer this time round... we talk Gillette, the tragic murder of Aiia Maasarwe in Melbourne, Kelly O’Dwyer stepping away from Federal politics, plus Damien might...just might, express a fully considered and verbalised idea before moving into the next one. See if you can pick it.

What a year! Is there ANYTHING good to talk about? It's a time to reflect on 2018, cover off on some lingering issues, and look forward to making 2019 waaaay better than this one. In our final ramblings for this year, we deliver some book reviews of all things, focus on what has mattered to Australia (SPOILER ALERT: It's mainly superficial), discover what's been great for women around the world (guess what! positivity can exist OUTSIDE your feed) and identify if New Year's resolutions are even necessary. Have a listen, stay safe, and feel free to explore or previous episodes until we upload our first for 2019. Thanks to everyone for supporting the #AllMenCanAUPodcast so far.

Tracy McLeod Howe, for 12 weeks, was CEO of White Ribbon. The depth of her experience explains why she was asked to become the CEO. In this episode, Ant travels to Sydney to have a chat with Tracy about the impact of White Ribbon and what men who don't want to be Ambassadors can do to reduce violence in our society. There's a Monty Python reference and some career advice.

Dave Grohl IS Jesus...moving on. In a scrambling attempt to cover off on the flood of shite that's been happening between September and now, we throw stones at Piers Morgan, Brett Kavanaugh et. al. In the process, we discover we might not be so innocent, as we call it out and promptly put our hand up! Ping New York Times, SBS The Feed, The Guilty Feminist Podcast.
