Matt brings on three smart guests to talk about the Job Guarantee proposal and political developments, both in Australia and more generally. The conversation covers things like Bill Mitchell (top JG advocate in Australia), Noel Pearson (Mitchell's newest ally, one of the most prominent anti-welfare advocates in the country), Work for the Dole, Jobseeker Payment, the Phillips Curve/NAIRU/Wage-Price Inflation, what jobs JG can actually do, Giuliani's TANF workfare program and its impact on unions, among other things.

A must listen!

Guest Mark Paul on his new book

I know this is not of interest to everybody, which is why I've made it a separate bonus episode you can skip. But if you are extremely online like many of us are, you may have seen the spate of articles about Sean McElwee, his departure from Data for Progress, and allegations about participating in illegal straw donor conspiracies. Carl Beijer is one of the great Sean chroniclers and so I've brought him on to fill in all the details.
