Katie celebrates the 400th episode of Miss Chatelaine by revisiting the theme of her very first show in 2017: protest songs. She welcomes singer-songwriter and activist Emmy Ryan to the studio to talk about Emmy’s time living and working in Mparntwe/Alice Springs, how protest songs can inspire, and how every action and word – no matter how small – can make a difference. Katie reads out congratulatory messages from the Miss Chatelaine listener family, fellow JOY volunteers, and Australian music legend Judy Small, and spins protest songs by some of her favourite artists. Here is the playlist:
- Sisters of Winter (A Cappella Version) – MILCK
- Mr President – Phil Smith
- There Is Power in a Union – Billy Bragg
- Stand or Fall – Judy Small
- Heavy Foot – Mon Rovîa
- Protest Song – David Keenan
- Together – Emmy Ryan
- Starfish Thrower – Chris While & Julie Matthews
- Occupy Your Mind – Grace Petrie
Follow Emmy Ryan on Facebook and Instagram and find her music and merch on Bandcamp.
