The Uncomfortable Truth About Jessica Rowe And Pauline Hanson

On the show today…

The Pepsi Super Bowl 56 Halftime performers have officially been announced and - brace yourselves - it is a pretty iconic lineup.

And this week, journalist Jessica Rowe released a new episode of her podcast, which featured a long-form interview with politician and One Nation founder Pauline Hanson. When she released the episode, Jessica made it clear that she did not align with Pauline’s political stance. However, people were quick to point out that giving her a platform, knowing her history and public views, was still a dangerous move. The episode has since been deleted, but it has left us with an uncomfortable truth about the way politics and entertainment intersect in Australia. 

Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! This week we’re talking about a nail-biting new thriller that dropped this week and a spooky prestige series that has launched its new season with a bang.
