050 - Mining Mimosas

This episode contains a recording of an Indigenous woman who has passed away. If you don’t want to hear that, please skip from 26:56 to 27:52.

It’s our fiftieth episode! To celebrate, we’re drinking some extremely depressing Mining Mimosas, as we look at some of the ways that mining companies destroy the lives, heritage, and legal status of First Nations people by, for example, blowing up 46 000 year old rock shelters.

We also have some really top notch memes from two noted memelords, updates on some long-running legal battles, a far too adorable potluck from some of our sweetest listeners, and a whole bunch more.
