Unserious
news.com.auThe news is exhausting. So we made a podcast that isn’t.
Unserious brings together three journalists who rarely agree on anything to unpack the week’s biggest stories, smallest controversies and most terminally online debates.
Smart conversations. Dumb arguments. Immaculate vibes.
