Join Caroline Wilson and Corrie Perkin for Ep 65.

Housekeeping kicks off this week with a huge thank you to everyone who came to our first ‘Live Podcast Lunch’ event last week at The Flying Duck Hotel. Along with our sponsors The Interchange Bench we helped to raise over $12,000 for Breast Cancer Network Australia AND we had a ball. Listen to Ep 64 for an edited pod version of the event. 

Caro reveals one of her more embarrassing behind the scenes TV experiences - her relationship with Luke Hodge has never been the same again!

We ponder the state of play for women in politics – what now for Julie Bishop and Julia Banks? Heading to Canberra? Cover those arms ladies, if you don’t want to get thrown out of parliament for inappropriate attire like Patricia Karvelis did. 

Caro and Corrie discuss the ‘Gangland Lawyer Saga’ rocking Victoria Police. A royal commission has been called but are we facing the real possibility that convicted criminals will have their sentences reduced or overturned? Check out the latest episode of Andrew Rule's podcast 'Life and Crimes' HERE for a great insight into this case.

After a weekend work trip to Hobart, Caro reports back with her take on the AFL in Tasmania, and she sounds more hopeful than ever. 

Caro’s “Crush of the Week” is AFL Legend Kevin Sheedy.

Our 'Crush of the Week' is proudly presented by The Interchange Bench.
