Catch up on this week’s political events in our latest SpinProof podcast replay -where Denise speaks with our favourite regulars - Cheryl Kernot and Noely Neate.We covered it all — from the post-election fallout (Labor’s majority, the rise of independents, and what the result really tells us), to the ongoing chaos around Trump, and big moments in media with Antoinette Lattouf’s legal win against the ABC.
