Episode 166: Housing, health and education: The debates we all have to have, and the bobcats we deserve

Van Badham and Ben Davison are back - with new tech, new producer (welcome, Casper!), and a jam-packed episode on everything that matters. After three debates and polling momentum seeming to flow to Labor, Van and Ben pick apart three defining (and revealing) policy conversations of the election campaign: housing, health and education. From the ideological shockwaves of Dutton’s Trump-flavoured Coalition to Albo’s pitch for a Big Labor Legacy, it’s the election campaign Australians have to pay attention to. With the dog in Ben’s lap (an occasionally growling), Van and Ben break down the real differences between policies (hint: one builds houses, the other is more of a vibe), unpack the return of old Liberal tricks, and even find time to celebrate bobcats roaming free in New Jersey. It’s fierce, funny, forensic - and not to be missed.
