Tina Quinn joins the show again, and she and Scott begin by discussing how all four of Ed Sheeran's support acts pulled out in solidarity with Macklemore, who was dropped from the stadium show after pressure from the Israel lobby.
Then, they dive into Karl Stefanovic's sudden courtroom battle over the future of his podcast, with Tina sharing some insight from those who've worked with Stefanovic.
After that, Scott and Tina talk about Pauline Hanson's appalling comments about Indigenous Australians, and ask why the media have suddenly realised the depth of Hanson's bigotry, and whether they let her off the hook too easily.
Finally, they review the ABC's second episode of the National Forum, which this time was about immigration, and discuss a podcast blow-up between Naomi Klein and the New York Times' David Marchese.
