Mattel has recently launched its first autistic barbie and in this edition of The Conversation Hour we explore how the doll has been received by the autistic community, and how far will it go in moving in the dial on inclusion and representation.
Also in this edition, as the State recovers from the recent bushfires, we discuss what safe vegetation along our roadsides should look like. And later in the program we hear about a new study on muscle strength in women as they age, plus get all the latest from Melbourne Park in the lead up to the Australian Open.
