This is the 200th episode of The Saturday Quiz, and what better way to mark the occasion than by having two of the funniest comedians to have ever answered the quiz, do it all over again?

Zoë and Alexei have never been on the show together, but their rapport is brilliant. And somehow, they wind up with mostly correct answers.

As always, play along at home by getting your copy of The Saturday Paper.

Julia Zemiro has been on this podcast many times before, but this time she’s brought along Susie Youssef to partner with. Which is kind of what she’s done with her tv show Great Australian Walks on SBS. She was the solo host of the first season, but now for the second season, Julis is sharing the hosting duties with Susie and Gina Chick.

It’s no secret that this podcast skews towards the big cities of this country, mostly those on the Eastern Seaboard. In fact, most podcasts in general favour the big cities. Kirsten Diprose and Damian Callinan are doing their bit to change that with their brand new podcast: Town Criers. She's a journalist and and he's a comedian and together they are sharing the driving on a road trip through rural Australia, to reveal everything worth celebrating about small country towns.
