Rick Morton joins Jess, Rachel and Charlie to discuss his new book Mean Streak, a "corporate thriller" that uncovers the horror of Robodebt. Rick gets into how it happened, where it all went so wrong and why we need to learn from this.
The team also delve into Senator Lidia Thorpe’s protest during King Charles’ visit to Parliament House and the media storm that surrounded it, including the comments of Azealia Banks… and they cover Al Jazeera’s reports against the ‘unfounded’ claims of the IDF as well as Australian media’s recent coverage of Palestine.
