Description
On today's show, David McBride discusses Julian Assange's prospects for extradition. Later, Andrei Molodkin discusses the Julian Assange Appeal and what he is prepared to do in his name. Find more about Andrei Molodkin's actions in the article: "The Artist Holding Valuable Art Hostage to Protect Julian Assange".
GUEST 1 OVERVIEW: David McBride is an Australian whistleblower. In 2011 and 2013, he served in Afghanistan as a military lawyer to the Royal Australian Regiment and Australian Special Forces respectively. David made information on war crimes committed by Australian soldiers in Afghanistan available to the ABC. If convicted of the charges against him, David McBride faces many years in prison.

GUEST 2 OVERVIEW: Andrei Molodkin's artistic practice is a leading example of Political Minimalism. He is distinctive for his formal approach to material, almost exclusively working in human blood, crude oil, steel and biro. Molodkin's projects have been censored throughout his career, from the Venice Biennale in 2009 where he represented his country in the Russian Pavilion – to 2021 when 'Whitehouse Filled with the Blood of US Citizens' was deemed too dangerous to show and was pulled from its intended location due to political tensions in the lead up to the Insurrection in Washington D.C. Recently, he has made international headlines with 'Putin Filled with Ukrainian Blood', a globally exhibited work produced in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The work was smuggled into Moscow and live-streamed on Red Square during the Victory Day parade. To coincide with the World Cup in Qatar, Molodkin presented a sculpture of the World Cup trophy filled with Qatari oil. It had a symbolic price of $150m to match the amount of money allegedly spent on bribes and kickbacks to FIFA officials. Last year, he publically sold blood-soaked copies of Prince Harry's Memoir, and projected a sculpture filled with the blood of Afghans onto St Paul's Cathedral to comment on Harry's remarks in Spare about his number of kills in Afghanistan. Molodkin has exhibited world-wide. His large-scale installations are in distinguished museum collections with ‘Liquid Modernity’, 2009 entering the Tate Collection, UK in 2012.
