- Policy analysis at its best
If you’re really looking for an informed interrogation of Australian government policies and their political drivers this is the podcast for you. While there are many podcasts that dip into policy analysis these long form discussions with knowledgeable experts really help you understand the complexities. Recent ones on immigration and housing were standouts - nothing is as simple as the politicians would have you believe.

Apple Podcasts1Overrated opinionsAustraliaa month ago - Excellent
The best podcasts really do seem to come out of our best Universities. Mark is well spoken and authoritative. Maria is clearly smart, but needs to say “like” less! And interrupt less.
