This week, Ross Solly and Genevieve Jacobs ask why the ACT government is diverting funds from our potholes riddled roads to light rail, how the pundits completely missed the Victorian election result and who really does the housework in 2022.

It's a question for the ages this week on The Hoot from Region. Would you rather wrestle a snake or a possum? Which would be more predictable - or dangerous?
