VICE Election Podcast - Episode 3 (with Aamer Rahman)

In our final episode, Aamer Rahman talks with our panel about what life is like for journalists held hostage by one of the longest election campaigns in Australian history. They also touch on Penny Wong's comments on the same-sex marriage plebiscite, and Scott Morrison's painful revelations about the bigotry he's suffered for being a straight, white, male Christian. This week's guests are editor of The Saturday Paper, Erik Jensen; paediatric nurse and activist Kate Pern; and Jess O'Callaghan, social media producer for the ABC's Radio National Drive, as well as another excellent #auspol podcast, The Party Room.
