Show Notes
Taylor Swift's new album ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ is out, and, like everything she does, it's smashing records. It’s a big talking point, so we’ll get you across the scale of it. Then we get into US President Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza, Australia’s new defence treaty with PNG, and Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s split. In what's coming up, we're heading into a massive weekend of sport, the start of daylight saving, federal parliament resumes, and Daniel Day-Lewis returns to acting.
