Shownotes Transcript

A transport minister stepping down after a winery lunch, an election promise for taxpayers to cover long lunches for businesses, and a literal Aussie Trump: we’re dissecting the week in politics.

And a "workforce of marshmallows": that’s what some bosses think of junior doctors who are threatening to walk off the job. 

Plus, the Anna v Mikaela beef: losing followers, "feeling broke" and influencer accountability. 

Hack host Dave Marchese is joined by political reporters Tess Ikonomou from AAP and Michael McGowan from The Sydney Morning Herald.
