Episode notes

"I will not be lectured about sexism and misogyny by this man." 


Ten years ago Julia Gillard said these words to Tony Abbott, then leader of the Opposition. 


But her speech was about more than just one man. 


In this episode, we start at the beginning; the day Australia got its first female Prime Minister. From the moment she took the leadership, to the moment she made her most famous speech.
