Hi!! Today's bonus episode is an interview with Kate Ellis, who previously held the record as the youngest minister *ever* after she was appointed to federal cabinet at age 30 in 2007, during the Rudd Labor government. Kate is the author of Sex, Lies and Question Time, a book that dives into the toxic blokey culture in Canberra – through the eyes of the women that work there.

We'll be back with our regular episode next Monday!
