Charlie and Rachel welcome returning guest-host Natalie Feliks. Together they are joined by human rights lawyer David Mejia-Canales to discuss the right to protest, and how the Australian media's coverage of protests give cover to repressive laws.
They also review the media coverage of the budget, the upcoming trans day-of-action, and the US government chat to which a journalist was accidentally added.
