Some news! After almost 8 life-changing years, I’m leaving @triplej 💔 Feeling so emotional about farewelling a job I love and a team that have become lifelong mates. Triple j has taught me EVERYTHING I know and I’ve been so lucky to have been supported & invested in for so long

Mandatory listening for anyone in Aus. Bravo @_angemccormack for this excellent series, what a way to cap off a stellar stint at @7ampodcast. All the best for your overseas adventures.
In this final episode of 7am’s five-part series, we speak with @JulieCollinsMP about what the government is doing to fix the housing disaster and whether there is more that could be done.

There's no one cause to the housing crisis, or one single solution - but we spoke to a lot of people for this series about what's driving the problem and how to solve it, including @SaulEslake @purplepingers @MChandlerMather @JulieCollinsMP, renters and public housing tenants. 🏚️
“I am genuinely surprised that there isn't more anger among young people at the way in which their parents and grandparents have cheated them.” – Economist Saul Eslake
Listen to episode one of our five-part series on the housing crisis today.

Great discussion between @_angemccormack and @SquigglyRick that contextualises the whole sordid mess of the #Lehrmann defamation case and the implications for Australian journalists and media…well worth a listen @7ampodcast podcasts.apple.com/au/podcas…

It's wonderful news that Stan Grant is now a regular columnist for @SatPaper. And as an even better gift, we get to hear his powerful + considered voice again on @7ampodcast. He's my guest today, discussing Sam Kerr, racism, the media, and philosophy: 7ampodcast.com.au/episodes/s…

Big love to @MrDTJames and @SquigglyRick for the Quill nominations for their work with 7am.
Working with reporters like them, who are equally brilliant and caring, on these series is one of the two best thing about being at 7am.

It's been such a pleasure to share so many great @7ampodcast episodes with @KarenMMiddleton!
Today is her last with us as she finishes up an amazing eight years at @SatPaper. Congrats and farewell, Karen ♥️
Pork-barrelling isn’t illegal, but it's one of the dark arts of politics: governments spending money in seats they want to win.
Today, @KarenMMiddleton on the MP who is trying to make public spending more transparent.

"With nearly 600 Black lives taken since the 1991 Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody, not one person has ever been held responsible or accountable for a Black death in custody," writes Donnas Kerr.

The goat came on the show.
As thoughtful and wonderful as you'd imagine.
His reflections on the Alex Jones/bohemian grove escapade and Jon revisting Alex years later, after his rise to prominence is fascinating - even if you know some of that tale.
Today, @jonronson tells us about the culture wars, his encounters with conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and reveals he’s a big fan of @amylandsniffers

I hope everyone enjoys listening to this as much as I enjoyed chatting with the wonderful folks at @SatPaper ♥️

This is a pretty big blow. GTM cancelled, Falls on a 'break', Laneway seeming to sell poorly. The boutique festival scene might be growing but we're basically left with one major festival a year. And who's to say Splendour isn't vulnerable to this kind of cancellation too?
Damn. This sucks. Feels like festivals can't even have an off year anymore. It's feast or famine, and kids in regional Australia are losing more of what they don't have enough of.

New: A podcast episode on the Tasmanian abuse crisis and Ashley Youth Detention Centre
Thanks, @7ampodcast 7ampodcast.com.au/episodes/e…
This has to be the most disturbing and shocking story in Australia right now that nobody is really talking about.
Very thankful for @NickFeik’s reporting on widespread abuse and cover-ups in Tasmania. Please listen to our @7ampodcast coverage today:

Like the rest of us, @Chanelcontos watched the bewildering videos of some old boys at a private school emotionally protesting the school going co-ed.
Contos joins @_angemccormack to discuss what it tells us about the culture of all-boys schools.
