Loved the podcast.
I think it would be great if you did a follow up one on the topic you briefly touched on, the huge gender difference within the movement.
For example, Australia and Queensland in particular tend to be very matriarchal, which is different to overseas.

Keep up the good work ;)

Great podcast! Thanks for making it happen.
