_Presenter and Pearls and Irritations Editor Catriona Jackson is joined for the third and final episode of the Dismissal editon of Pearlcast. _

Catriona is joined by two guests at the heart of the story:

• John Menadue, former head of the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet under Whitlam, and Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Pearls and Irritations • Brian Toohey, the journalist who has dug deepest into CIA and other foreign interference in the Dismissal

Together they work to untangle a murky web of people and nations, pressuring Sir John Kerr, and interfering in the sovereignty of a democractic nation.
