One Nation has proposed a raft of radical changes to the superannuation system that would allow Aussies who rent or pay a mortgage to divert a portion of their super payments as salary for up to three years. In this speical episode, I'm joined by AMP Chief Economist Shane Oliver to unpack the proposal and explore what redirecting future super payments could mean for your long-term savings, inflation, and the housing market.

Hello! This week, I sit down with the incredible Liane Moriarty to talk about her brand-new, number-one bestselling book, Big Little Truths... the long-awaited sequel to Big Little Lies.

The government has officially banned checkout surcharges on credit cards, which means no more extra fees when you tap your card in store. But while that sounds like a win, it’s triggering a major shake-up behind the scenes that could quietly cost you money. In this episode, I sit down with financial educator and author Nicole Pedersen-McKinnon for a proper wallet audit. We unpack how merchants are pricing card fees into shelf prices, why banks are slashing credit card rewards, points, and travel insurance perks, and what you need to check on your own cards to ensure you're still getting real value.
