Tune in to RN on Christmas morning to hear an amazing lineup from our Religion and Ethics team and special guests, including Stan Grant, Meredith Lake and David Rutledge. Then, journey to ancient South-East Asia to discover treasured antiquities that would later end up in Australian galleries — via some questionable channels. Venture into the polka-dotted world of celebrated Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama, who, at 93, continues to expand her prolific body of work. And learn the true testimony of "Baby Roe", the child at the heart of the landmark Roe v Wade legal battle. If you're looking for your next podcast to binge, try Dig: Sirens Are Coming, a true crime investigation following Queensland's corrupt cops and the sex workers who would bring them down. Or, listen back to your favourite RN programs on the ABC listen app. We hope you have a wonderful Christmas. Until next time, Anna Levy, deputy digital editor
