Early Edition with Ryan Bridge - Podcast tekijän mukaan Newstalk ZB
An American comedian is defending his decision to kick a breast-feeding mother out of his Melbourne comedy show. Flight of the Concords star Arj Barker asked breastfeeding mother Trish Faranda to leave his Melbourne show on Saturday, claiming her baby was disrupting his performance. Faranda says it was humiliating to be publicly called out. Australia correspondent Donna Demaio told Mike Hosking that Barker "feels bad for any upset involved", but says he was thinking of the hundreds of other ticketholders hoping to hear his show. He says it was a 15-plus show, and the 700 others in attendance needed to be able to enjoy the event. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
