Is Nothing Sacred pulls apart the farce of the 2015 Survival Day with a look at the new Knights and Dames honours, LGBTIQ Indigenous services and teaching the history of the 26th of January in Australia, as we aim for a Republic on a day that truly United us as a nation.

Featuring Noel Tovey AM, the icon of the LGBTIQ and Indigenous community, as we celebrate his recent Order Of Australia medal.

Dameyon Bonson from Black Rainbow returns to speak about his new venture under Black Rainbow to create a support hotline for LGBTIQ Indigenous Youths.

Professor Geoff Gallop AC, former premier of Western Australia and the current Chair of the Australian Republic Movement, sets aside our anachronistic Knights and Dames (including the Gaffe-master Prince Phillip) and look to an Australia independent of the Commonwealth.

Nathan Appo the #SurvivalDay campaigner shares his story and spreads his message of education to the community about Survival Day.

Aired on 26th of January, 2015.
