Every weeknight Sarah Ferguson pulls together 30mins of news and current affairs, interviewing everyone from Pat Cummins to the Prime Minister. She’s also known for her hard-hitting investigative work— like The Killing Season on the Rudd-Gillard years or her award-winning exposé on live cattle exports, which led to a major policy shift.

In his first podcast interview of 2025 ahead of the federal election, PM Anthony Albanese joins News Club to talk about his values and why he doesn’t think the Coalition can win. We asked about his approach to Donald Trump, his news habits, the threat of misinformation, and his views on national pride. We got to educate him on the phrase ‘cossie livs’ aka cost of living... He also talks about his fiance, Jodie, and his friendship with his son Nathan. It’s a great listen as you ponder how you’ll vote in the upcoming election.
