Only legends on the first new episode of Stop Everything! for 2022.

Hear from Nooky, proud Yuin and Thungutti man, rapper and host of Blak Out on Triple J about his new track Run Dingo, new platform We are Warriors, and the power of hip hop and visibility. 

BW and BL also reflect on the reactions around Grace Tame’s viral Jan 25 photo op with Prime Minister Scott Morrison and the also-viral takedown on The Project by host Carrie Bickmore and Guardian Australia journalist Amy Remeikis of political journalist Peter van Onselen, who wrote that the 2021 Australian of the Year was “ungracious, rude and childish, refusing to smile for the cameras.”

And what are some five-letter words for healing through play? We love Wordle, the lo-fi online word game that’s taken our omicron-riddled, RAT-scare world by storm.
