Ep 86 - 'Who Don't You Pick On?'

Published: May 21, 2019, 6:21 a.m.

Join Caroline Wilson, Corrie Perkin and Brendan Donohoe  for our post-election debrief. We're also joined by Geoff Fleming from VitalSmarts to tell us about their game changing work.  Wearing his political reporter hat, Brendan crunches a few of the key statistics from Saturday's Federal Election and we question how the polls got the predictions so wrong. Was Bill Shortens perceived lack of X Factor a contributor to Labour's loss? We remember former PM Bob Hawke who died last week aged 89, and we check in on Corrie and Caro's 'Goal of the Month' progress. Brendan has a 'Crush of the Week' - the volunteers at the bowling club who hosted a Liberal Party event he was at on Saturday.
