Why Helen Garner trained her forensically observant eye on an Aussie rules team - and what she learnt from it
Friday, 9 January, 2026

In this week's episode we speak with acclaimed author Helen Garner, who followed the travails of her grandson's footy team for her new book, The Season. She speaks with Konrad Marshall about what she now envies about male contact sports, the benefit of coming to footy with limited prior knowledge, and the debate over the book's cover image.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
