Podcasts have surged in popularity in recent years, with notable interviews with political leaders, and now we're seeing a similar trend in Australia.

Controversial reality TV star and podcaster Abbie Chatfield has sat down with the prime minister, Anthony Albanese, on her podcast It's a Lot Podcast.

Bill McDonald said on 4BC Mornings, "What was said in the podcast, it's nothing out of the ordinary and there probably wasn't anything shocking."

"She just agreed with pretty much everything that he had to say, and not challenging him on much at all," Bill continued.
