    Weekly Wrap: Understanding Israeli President Herzog’s visit, and who is Nancy Guthrie?

    13/02/2026 | 42 mins.
    Getting you across Israeli President Isaac Herzog’s visit to Australia is our priority this week. It’s been a challenging one for lots of people, so we’ve tried our best to make sense of it and get you across the facts and different perspectives. Then, we couldn’t look past the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the mother of the NBC TV host who has been missing for over a week now. We’ve got you covered for the Libspill - Sussan Ley is out and Angus Taylor is the new Liberal leader. We’ll also get into our top 3 favourite moments from the Winter Olympics, including the Biathlon Bronze medallist’s cheating confession on international television.

    Weekly Wrap: Unpacking the latest Epstein files, and a lifesaving swim

    06/02/2026 | 45 mins.
    The US Department of Justice released over 3 million documents in the latest batch of Epstein files. Despite feeling a bit intimidated by digging into it all, we decided we couldn’t look past it, so we’ve done our best to pull out the key details for you. Then, we get into where we’re at with the Liberals and the Nationals - will they get back together, or no? We also wanted to get you across the biggest thing in AI at the moment, Claude Code. And our favourite story from the week had to be the 13-year-old who made a heroic 4km swim to shore to save his family.
