Episode overview
In politics, the voters of Eden-Monaro are heading to the polls on Saturday in a by-election touted as a test of voter confidence in Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Opposition leader Anthony Albanese in these uncertain economic times. Meanwhile, the arts and media have been rocked by claims of racism in institutions and on our screens, and new research suggests the coronavirus pandemic has seen a spike in alcohol consumption by Australian women. Joining Hamish Macdonald to discuss these topics and more are: Shaun Micallef, Television host; Brooke Boney, Today Show entertainment reporter; Christopher Pyne, Former Liberal MP; and Terri Butler, Shadow Minister for the Environment and Water.
