Episode Description
In this episode, Serina is joined by her former boss, Grant Dooley, whose real-life memoir Bomb Season in Jakarta is more gripping than an action spy thriller. A former Australian diplomat with postings in Guangzhou, Shanghai, and Jakarta, Grant takes us inside the high-stakes world of mid-2000s Australia-Indonesian diplomacy – a turbulent era of bombings, political unrest, and personal resilience, all while navigating life on dual diplomatic postings with his wife and children.
