In our reimagined podcast, The Lab at Deakin, Paul and Gini (Virginia) Weber interrogate the power of language, how butter is made, and whether you really are politically correct or just being some ill-defined misanthrope.

The Marketing Lab is recorded and produced on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation. We pay our respects to elders past, present, and emerging. We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Australians and Traditional Custodians of the land where we live, work, and learn.
