This week's show is Part One in our interview series with Melbourne GP, health innovator and activist, Percy Rogers. Percy was a kindly GP to many people over many decades in Coburg and beyond, specialising in maternity health, but he started life in Western Australia in 1927. Percy grew up in Australia's experience of the Depression and the Second World War. He remembers how much it cost to pay lodgings whilst also trying to put yourself through college as a working-class boy. Percy was a maths whizz and was turned onto socialism at a young age whilst perusing books down a little alleyway in Perth many moons ago. He stumbled on some books talking about Marxism and he resonated with that view of the world. We are very much looking forward to learning where Percy's journey will lead us next when he returns to the studio next week! Tune in then.
