Health, HIV, Interview, Marriage Equality, News & Politics, Society & Culture, Sports & Recreation, the informer

On tonight’s show we find out on Friday whether Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis, or PrEP, will be subsidized on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme, so we spoke to some men who have started taking one pill a day which prevents HIV Infection.

We head to the Team Melbourne Sports Festival to find out why it is that people are picking inclusive sporting teams to be a part of. Is this a better way to focus on their mental health as well as their physical health?

And we hear from Christine Forster and Virginia Flitcroft about love and coming out later in life. They tied the knot last Friday, in what was the first high-profile same-sex wedding since marriage equality law was passed in Australian Parliament.

This podcast is the whole show which originally aired on Monday 5th Feb 2018.
