It's been a BIG week and, honestly, one of our most interesting episodes yet.
We kick things off by breaking down why Karl Stefanovic was axed from Nine, his viral "I'm free" video, and what we think comes next.
Sarah then dives into Kylie Jenner's new partnership with Meta AI Glasses and whether the feminisation of tech is finally enough to make wearable AI cool. Hannah unpacks Australia's newest teal political party and what they're hoping to represent.
Then, we have the best time going through all the reports and rumours surrounding Taylor Swift's wedding. We also break down New York City's primary election, where Zohran Mamdani-backed candidates all won while JFK's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, lost.
Finally, in our Q&A, we answer a listener question on Australia's FIFA Women's World Cup campaign and where the tournament goes from here.

Chelsea Manning has leaked hundreds of thousands of classified documents to WikiLeaks, including the infamous Collateral Murder video. The fallout is immediate: governments scramble, public trust is shaken, and Julian Assange becomes one of the most divisive figures in the world.
We unpack the leaks that changed everything, the 2016 U.S. election controversy, Assange's years inside the Ecuadorian embassy, and the legal battle that eventually brought him back to Australia.

BIG TALK: Julian Assange & WikiLeaks PART ONE
23/06/2026 | 30 mins.
Before WikiLeaks became one of the most controversial organisations in the world, Julian Assange was a teenage hacker from Australia with a fascination for secrecy.
In this episode, we trace Assange's journey from hacking NASA and the Pentagon to developing the philosophy that would eventually underpin WikiLeaks. We unpack the leaks that first put the organisation on the map, from government corruption in Kenya and Guantánamo Bay documents to Scientology secrets and Australia's internet censorship blacklist.
And finally, we meet the whistleblower who would change everything: Chelsea Manning. Part Two is out now.
