Grab your budgie smugglers and hop aboard the mateship, it is time to talk Aussie argot. Words underpin the myths and stereotypes of our national identity; they have also obscured harsh realities and inequalities. Join Australian National Dictionary Centre Director, Dr Amanda Laugesen, and beloved novelist Pip Williams, author of The Dictionary of Lost Words, for a linguistic feast. In conversation with Terri-Ann White.
