David will be appearing with special guest Facilitator Charles Firth to discuss Girt Nation, The Unauthorised History of Australia Volume 3

The saga of Australia continues with . . . GIRT NATION

David Hunt tramples the tall poppies of the past in charting Australia’s transformation from aspiration to nation – an epic tale of charlatans and costermongers, of bush bards and bushier beards, of workers and women who weren’t going to take it anymore.

David Hunt is an unusually tall and handsome man who likes writing his own biographical notes. He is the author of the bestselling Girt and True Girt, as well as two books for children. David is also a television presenter and podcaster, and has a birthmark that looks like Tasmania, only smaller and not as far south.

Facilitator for this session, Charles “Danger” Firth is an Australian comedian, best known as a member of The Chaser productions CNNNN and The Chaser's War on Everything, and author of American Hoax. He is currently co-host of The Chaser Report, Australia’s daily news comedy podcast.
