The Drought & Bushfires of 2019

Drought

Host Sophie Love takes us through the trauma of her family’s 2019, one animal at a time.  It’s a heartbreaking insight into the realities of that word.  A word laden with fear, with death, with huge financial losses for many farmers.  But that might not mean as much to city people.  Which is why Sophie felt she had to share – both to dislodge the cold stone lodged in her heart since the year that culminated in Australia’s most terrifying bushfires – and to put real names and stories to the horror of drought.  It’s harrowing, but essential listening.  Take tissues!
