If you want to listen to a couple of people prevaricate particularly when it comes to answering people’s questions and calling out obviously poor political behaviour which has negative consequences for Australia then this is the podcast for you. As beneficiaries of the federal governments $67m journalist assistance fund it’s obvious why they go so soft.
Very informative. Also entertaining.
I was astounded to hear the hosts had no idea about de dollarisation. It is only one of the most important topics in current finance and they were clueless. Not good for an apparent financial podcast!
Similar to the other AFR podcast, it’s a little soft and waffling for me. And a little bit too politically bias.
No faffing about, straight to the point great attitude!

A weekly financial and business briefing hosted by two veteran Australian columnists who dissect macro trends, markets, policy, and corporate governance with brisk banter and data-driven analysis. Episodes frequently cover housing, inflation, central-bank policy, corporate accountability, AI and technology bets, and major market moves, often peppered with listener questions that anchor practical takeaways for investors and executives. Notably, the show maintains a distinctive mix of sharp skepticism toward policy or corporate missteps and a penchant for clear, accessible explanations of complex topics, making it valuable for listeners who want concise, high-signal context on Australia's business and finance environment.
