MOVIE PREVIEW - Join us! Thanks to Red Energy.

We’re thrilled to be partnering with Red Energy for our first podcast event of the year.

This week Caro and Corrie discuss sexism in journalism and the fall-out following Aaron Patrick’s story in the Australian Financial Review last week on News Corp’s Political Editor Samantha Maiden. Caro admits these take-down tactics are bringing back many personal memories for her, and Corrie questions whether we’ll see a shift in support by the Murdoch press away from the government towards the opposition in the lead up to the next federal election. Does a Murdoch endorsement still help to win or lose elections in the current climate?

This week in the Cocktail Cabinet for Prince Wine Store we embrace the flavours of Autumn. Myles brings in a delicious French liqueur for us to try – Le Birlou, and also recommends the Mt Langi Cliff Edge Shiraz for Corrie’s next lunch.

Corrie's Crush of the Week for Red Energy is Carla Zampatti who sadly died on the weekend – we remember her as an icon of the Australian fashion industry.

In BSF we discuss;

· Why I’m Not a Millionaire:The Dazzling Memoir of an Extraordinary Trailblazer by Nancy Spain (available at My Bookshop HERE).

· 15 Days on BBC First

· Corrie serves up Julia Bussttil Nishimura’s Spiced Carrot Cake (see recipe below or HERE).

Caro is Grumpy that the AFLW Grand Final hasn’t been given a standalone spot on the footy fixture but will instead compete with an AFL game.

And in 6 Quick Questions we ask is it a good call or bad call that ABC TV have moved Q&A from Monday to Thursday night, we reflect on great Easter meals and Corrie sings the praises of Carmon and Ginger on Instagram.
