Lead Poisoning Cover-Up, Robodebt Fallout, A Love Letter & Who TF Is James
This week Konrad blows the lid off explosive emails that were buried - showing how regulators (that are meant to look after us punters) covered up a mining industry lead poisoning scandal. Plus, another scare campaign, a $1.8 billion Robodebt payout (while no one in power actually faces consequences), and the knock-back techniques used by the politicians dodging our invites to the Political Fundraiser.

Labor's Secrets, Politician Enters the Punt Tank & Qantas Smacked (sort of)
In our brand-new segment, pollies get just 60 seconds to pitch their best ideas to punters we’ve pulled straight from our DMs. First in the Punt Tank is Allegra Spender, pitching a capital gains shakeup. Will she get a Punt or a Pass? Plus, Labor’s so called transparency gets shredded, and Qantas cops a fine (but is it enough to pep up the punts??)
