Episode notes

This week's take on the news relating to rural and regional Australia with Fleur Anderson and Wade Dabinett: We can't avoid it - we talk Corona. We've left one non-Corona story and interview right to the end as a reward for listening to Wade and Fleur bang on! This week the conversation turned Macro. Will this change how we govern forever? It's certainly changed the way we run our businesses (Fleur is a fan of the new dress code - 'Zoom Meeting'!) This tweet charts global numbers and Australia get an honourable mention: https://twitter.com/jburnmurdoch/status/1246538603934646272?s=19 These are Wade and Fleur's two favourite articles for the week talking about Corona and Government: https://www.afr.com/policy/foreign-affairs/end-of-golden-era-exposes-illiberal-liberalism-20200322-p54clt https://www.theaustralian.com.au/inquirer/coronavirus-pragmatic-leaders-build-a-bridge-to-the-other-side/news-story/790608669e332d17402892c2c8c18acf Big shout out the Interact Limestone Coast who have set a great example for other communities on how to showcase, stay connected and promote what they have to offer during social distancing.
