Summary

Ivanka Trump and Jared’s Kushner’s plans to turn the nation’s only island & a pristine wilderness into a billionaire's playground has triggered a wave of protests. Politico Europe editor Alice Taylor explains why this particular development has stuck such a nerve. First Nation’s people have been dining out on bush tucker for millennia, but foods like warrigal greens, wattle seed and finger lime are still considered 'exotic' in fine dining establishments. Professor Henrietta Marrie from the UQ Training Centre for Uniquely Australian Foods & head of culinary services at Cairns Convention Centre, Ben Boudaud are on a quest to get more Australians cooking with ancient flavours. He was the leader of the 80s Bratpack, who gained fame with films like the Breakfast Club, St Elmo's Fire and Mighty Ducks. Now in his 60s, Emelio Estevez is all grown up and making more contemplative films, including a reboot of The Way starring his famous dad, Martin Sheen.
