    This week on the podcast, we look at some of the female Democrats in contention for 2020 and also examine the idea of "unlikeable women" in politics with Macquarie University's Gender Studies Program Director Dr Rebecca Sheehan. Plus, we unpack Hillary Clinton's reemergence and her advice for so-called "Bernie Bros".

    An historic shutdown and a BuzzFeed bombshell
    We return in 2019 in the midst of an historic US government shutdown. Meanwhile, a steady stream of new Democratic candidates are putting up their hands for the 2020 race and the White House has been rocked by allegations in a BuzzFeed News report that the president directed his former lawyer to lie to Congress. Former Bloomberg BNA analyst and research associate with the Council on Foreign Relations in New York, Jared Mondschein, joins the podcast to discuss the high stakes for Trump, the Democrats and the media.
