  • What are the rules for political advertising

    Hi, I just listened to this podcast and I really enjoyed it. Well done. However, what I didn’t like is the change of voice tone. Every sentence finished about 3 octaves higher than it started. They all sounded like 15 year-old school children!! Please have a listen and see what you think.

    The PRESENTATION of communication is as important as the its CONTENT.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How to boost child vaccination rates
Q: Wendy, what's causing this fall in vaccination rates? You mentioned that they've been falling since 2020. Is COVID part of the explanation?
There are multiple factors contributing to the fall in vaccination rates, including vaccine hesitancy accelerated by COVID-19 misinformation and difficulties in accessing appointments due to cost of living pressures.
Why Rent Assistance needs to rise
Q: Would this just be an invitation to landlords to increase rents across the board?
Evidence suggests increasing rent assistance won't significantly raise rents, as it is a cash payment to recipients, and recipients typically use this money for essentials.
Why Rent Assistance needs to rise
Q: What do you recommend to make renting affordable for retirees?
We recommend increasing the maximum rate of rent assistance to help pensioners afford a wider range of housing options and reduce financial stress.
Why Rent Assistance needs to rise
Q: Aren't the age pension and rent assistance meant to help prevent retirees falling into poverty?
Yes, the age pension does help if one owns a home, but retirees who rent face much higher housing costs and lower rent assistance that isn't enough to meet their needs.
Why Rent Assistance needs to rise
Q: Why is it so difficult for renters in retirement versus people who own their own home?
Housing is most people's largest expense, which significantly impacts living standards in retirement. Renters spend more than 30% of their income on housing, while homeowners typically spend less than 5% after paying off their mortgage.
