Scott takes Os on a deep dive into the world of commercial radio, focusing on the mammoth $200m deal Kyle and Jackie O signed to help take their show national. Where do media companies get this kind of money? Why are they spending it on shock-jocks? Is the future of radio as grim as it looks?
They also cover the media reporting of the new Liberal party leader Sussan Ley and discuss whether she is as "moderate" as news coverage suggests, and look at Labor's recently factional implosion.
And they announce a new segment: "Keeping Tabs", which will be a more rapid-fire discussion of different stories and issues in the media that deserve attention or scrutiny.
