Season 2, Ep 13: Farewell 2022!

The reMAKERs

It’s the end of the year, folks. No one needs anything overly demanding to listen to, but nor do we need a whinge-fest (state of nation: “tired”).

Enter Millie and Lily for the final reMAKERS pod of this year: a pretty chill but perky chat that comes full circle to the start of this season, about our ‘why’ as a country and interesting spaces the public good ideas have travelled to this year.

Find out why 2022 is the year Millie fell in love with public servants, and what Lily’s most excited to learn about next year (bringing the pod community along, of course).

Also some books and podcast recommendations for your summer, even though Millie confesses she has no intention of reading ‘nerd books’ any time soon. It’s honest, but light. It’s reMAKING, over-an-iced-latte-with-a-friend style.
