See below for show notes:

In this special two-part discussion, Dan and John continue their discussion of the significant changes which have taken place to Australia over the past generation, and what Australia might look like over the next twenty years.

The focus of this discussion is on freedom of speech, including in relation to the defining free speech cases in Australia over the past 20 years.

John and Dan also share why they are hopeful about the future of freedom speech in Australia, and why public sentiment is much more supportive than it has been in the past.
