Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 121 ratings
  • Peaks and troughs

    Aside from Alan, the show would benefit from more analysis and less waffle - it was 3:20 of the episode ‘Who will benefit from the budget’ before any mention of policy…

  • Terrific stuff

    Never written a review, never listened to a podcast, wary of all podcasts as they’re essentially advertising platforms with no end leading to dilution. This is far from the case - genuine experts with a genuine need for continuous communication and more value for taxpayers. Love it.

  • Completely mixed bag

    I subscribed to this for the deep dives by Alan Kohler but picked up the rest of this on the same feed.

    Alan is a master communicator which is rare for business presenters.

    Most are wooden, or try to insert too much information, or oversensationalise.

    The rest of the business and finance team at the ABC are well intended but barely listenable and would do well to study why Alan rates so well. It’s media school 101.

  • Perfect

    Carrington Clarke’s sonorous voice and sultry undertones give me the strength to keep goin, and I would happily submit to sacrifice by fire in honor of his longevity. ABC Business Daily is the only reason I’ve started wearing a seatbelt to work.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What CBA’s Matt Comyn thinks about interest rates
Q: How will AI affect jobs at Commonwealth Bank and the broader economy?
AI will create new roles and efficiencies, reduce some tasks, and require clear reskilling and internal mobility pathways; the net impact includes both opportunities and workforce transitions.
What CBA’s Matt Comyn thinks about interest rates
Q: What is your view on the role of government deficits and surpluses in today's economy?
Surpluses can provide fiscal capacity to manage shocks, but Australia's debt and deficits require careful balancing with growth and productive investment; deficit reduction needs to be targeted and sustainable.
What CBA’s Matt Comyn thinks about interest rates
Q: Do you think there will be more rate hikes after the last one?
The market signalled the move was well expected and priced in; while another hike is possible, it will depend on upcoming inflation data and broader economic conditions.
The economics of migration
Q: How should the stock of temporary migrants be managed to align with permanent migration, and what are the fiscal implications?
The goal should be to keep the stock of temporary migrants around current levels and allow a gradual decline, so net migration aligns with permanent visa issuances; this would balance fiscal costs and benefits, since temporary migrants contribute taxes but use relatively fewer welfare services.
The economics of migration
Q: What impact would a big cut in temporary migration have on the labor force and economy?
Reducing temporary migration would likely shrink the labour supply, potentially lowering productive capacity and increasing wage pressures in affected industries, while policy could try to compensate through higher wages or expanded training and education funding.
