Show Notes
In this episode, we’re chatting with Joe Aston, Founder of Rampart and columnist for the AFR, to look ahead at the biggest news stories from 2025 and the two themes Joe reckons will dominate 2026: AI and interest rates. We also dive into the Murdoch succession and what it means for News Corp and Fox, where all the power is going to come from for AI data centres, and Joe's verdict on Australia’s political leadership (spoiler: "pathetic").
