Have you ever been to a protest before, does your experience match with mine?

In Episode #321 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: the reasons why I spontaneously went to Canberra, the 'Converge On Canberra' protest to support Julian Assange, some false information from a fringe protestor, the highlight of supporting ASSange, why I probably won't go to any more protests any time soon (hint: it's related to politics), Juan's seeking of truth by focusing on signal and why the money matters.

As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
