The Shot Podcast

 The Shot

A weekly podcast about Australian politics, power and corruption. Each week Jo Dyer and Dave Milner probe the myths and half-truths pushed by those in power.


Sometimes profound, occasionally profane, The Shot podcast is always entertaining. If you want a didactic account of power and politics in Australia, download something else. But if you want robust, honest and witty engagement with the big issues, The Shot podcast will be right up your alley.
