It's the first Wednesday of the month AND the broadcast before International Women's Day, so Meg & Eugenia have booted the boys out of the studio to talk gender & transport.

Our first interview is with Dr Nicole Kalms from the Monash Design Department's XYX Lab about her research into women's safety on public transport around the world. We talk about how design is gendered and the dramatic changes many women make to their lifestyles and routines in order avoid feeling unsafe in transport spaces.

In the second half of the show we talk to Rachel Lynskey: activist, urban planning student and Sustainable Cities Coordinator at Friends of the Earth. We chat about the current issues in Melbourne's public transport politics, the importance of community-led campaigns and how different our city could be if it was planned with gender in mind.
