Who gets to move to Australia?

Tuesday, November 3, 2026 • Duration 19:06

For years, we’ve heard how Australia doesn’t have enough people working as teachers, nurses and tradies. But what if I told you there’s also not enough swimming coaches, hairdressers and meat inspectors? That’s according to the latest data from Australia’s occupation shortage list, which helps shape which jobs employers can sponsor overseas workers for. In today's podcast, we're breaking down how the list is decided, which jobs are no longer in shortage, and how all of this impacts the Government's approach to immigration.

Why eating disorders are on the rise

Monday, November 2, 2026 • Duration 25:18

More than 18 million people around the world are living with anorexia or bulimia, with adolescents and young adults disproportionately affected. That’s according to a major new global study. It’s the biggest update on these two eating disorders in almost a decade, covering more than 200 countries and three decades of data. The findings, from what’s known as the Global Burden of Disease study, show Australia has the highest rate of anorexia and bulimia compared to any other country, and - as you’re about to hear - the picture could be even worse than we realise. To understand the whole story, I spoke with one of the senior researchers behind the study, Associate Professor Damian Santomauro from the University of Queensland’s School of Public Health for today’s deep dive.

Why are all my friends unemployed?

Sunday, November 1, 2026 • Duration 14:24

This is the story of thousands of uni students. They were promised that if they pulled all-nighters, did the internships and put in the extra hours, there’d be a job waiting at the end. But for many young Australians, the graduation gown came off, and the job never came. Last month, the Australian Bureau of Statistics revealed youth unemployment has climbed to 11.1%, the highest it’s been since 2021, when we were grappling with the pandemic. On today’s podcast, we’re going to unpack why young people are being hit so much harder when it comes to unemployment, why it’s not just you struggling to land a job, and how it’s part of a much bigger shift in the job market.
