Radio Reversal is a show that subjects aspects of everyday life to historico-political, theoretical, cheeky, irreverent, high brow, low brow, eye brow, warm-hearted analysis. Our aim is to see the world more clearly, think about what we'd like it to become, and how we can make that happen. We think that discussing these sorts of ideas is one way to lessen the alienation that affects many of us trying to make sense of a world that so often makes no sense of us. We also play loads of awesome music (sometimes thematic!) with great enthusiasm for requests and an emphasis on supporting local artists. It's fun!

Morning Zedthreaders, Han in the studio with you today, with a challenging but vital show for you, featuring speakers from last weekend's Justice for Palestine Magan-djin protest gathering as part of the nationwide 12 October March for Palestine. First up is Wangerriburra and Birri Gubba activist Sam Woripa Watson, asserting the need to continue fighting alongside the news of a so-called ceasefire. Next up is Dr Saya Aziz, Australian anaesthetist, describing the horrors she witnessed whilst working at Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, on behalf of PANZMA (Palestinian Aust NZ Medical Association). Finally, former Freedom Flotilla participant, Gold Coast grandmother and Uni of Qld educator Helen O'Sullivan, reflects on the Sumud Flotilla and the pause in bombing, along with the ongoing fight that stretches before us.
As always, these words are accompanied by some brilliant tunes by local and international artists. Tune in live or catch up on-demand, and for more you can listen to our podcast.
