After months of delays, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese met with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House this week. 

There was plenty to talk about during the pair’s first formal meeting since Trump's re-election last year, with a major deal on critical minerals, progress on AUKUS, and a tense moment between the U.S. President and former PM Kevin Rudd. Today we're breaking down what happened, why it matters, and what comes next.

Hosts: Emma Gillespie and Lucy Tassell
Producer: Orla Maher
