Amy Taylor\\u2019s music has taken her all over the world \\u2013 from the UK to the US, Coachella to Glastonbury \\u2013 but she definitely wasn\\u2019t expecting it to deliver an audience with the Prime Minister. Yet that\\u2019s precisely what happened on Wednesday, when the often foul-mouthed and always feminist frontwoman for ascendant Melbourne pub-punk band Amyl and the Sniffers was flown to Canberra for a meeting with Anthony Albanese.

In this episode, Taylor chats to\\xa0Good Weekend\\xa0senior writer Konrad Marshall, author of the magazine\\u2019s\\xa0profile of Taylor\\xa0this weekend. Their conversation explored everything from the structural sexism that\\u2019s rife within the industry to the uncomfortable conversations Taylor is more than comfortable having.
