Episode description
Feeling a sense of nostalgia for queuing might sound a little odd, but when it comes to seeing your favourite band there is perhaps a certain camaraderie that comes from those long waits with sleeping bags and a thermos. But as ticket sales for big touring acts move online, can it dimmish a sense of fandom? In this edition of The Conversation Hour we explore whether online ticketing has made accessing tickets harder than lining up in a physical queue.
Also in this edition, we discuss the challenges of dealing with a rare cancer, the impact of tourism on Bali and an innovation in bee conversation.
