  • 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.

Will an AI backlash hamper its boom?
Q: What did you make of what we heard from Anthropic and then being joined by OpenAI and SpaceX?
David Taylor responds that the industry is racing forward with huge investment while there are warnings about our ability to manage risk, and he emphasizes watching policy signals and market reactions to see whether the pace is sustainable.
What's behind the retail results?
Q: What are the main factors behind the current performance of Woolworths and Coles, and how do online versus in-store dynamics affect their outlook?
The big two are growing in sales and profits, with online channels expanding. However, the relative mix between stores and online matters for margins, fulfillment strategies differ (Coles uses centralized fulfillment centers while Woolworths relies more on in-store picking and local fulfillment), and promotions/pricing will continue to influence consumer behavior and profitability. External tailwinds include the cost-of-living relief driving supermarket spending, inflation supporting sales, and the ongoing shift in consumer shopping patterns that could favour these incumbents if they execute well on logistics and pricing.
WiseTech's new CEO on recovering from scandal
Q: Firstly, do you have any comment on any of those things?
I've known Richard since 2004 and I've worked closely with him for many years; I have immense respect for his contributions and the company's progress, and I'm cooperating with regulators while focusing on stabilizing WiseTech for customers, staff, and investors.
Are we headed for 'Bondmageddon'?
Q: Are we heading for GFC 2.0?
Das explains that while history rhymes with past crises—especially around debt, rates, and leverage—the current setup includes complex funding structures in tech that could delay a traditional crash, but there are clear warning signs such as rising rates, high debt, and energy-driven inflation that could still precipitate stress for banks, households, and governments.
The business of comedy: Alan Kohler talks to Marty and Michael
Q: What changed when you switched to a subscription model?
The subscription model gave us predictable income and allowed us to scale with less dependence on platform ad revenue and demonetization risk, enabling more ambitious productions while managing costs.
