Os and Scott discuss how Pauline Hanson’s address to the National Press Club has divided journalists, and highlighted the big race problem in Australia's newsrooms. They also talk about how the last week reveals the media's limitations in combating the far-right.
Then they unpack the latest on the political crisis in the UK and why it looks like Prime Minister Keir Starmer's days are numbered.
Later in the show, they're joined by former captain of the Socceroos, SBS presenter and refugee advocate Craig Foster to talk about the World Cup, Australia's performance, the best narratives coming out of the tournament, the state of the media, Anthony Albanese's time as PM, and the rise of Pauline Hanson.
