From time to time we make it our way to feature episodes with good outcomes. We know our podcast features true crime cases and accidents caused by humans or natural disasters, most of which did not have a happy ending, not that we expected it to be.

This week on The Hoot, we're all about the money, money, money. We start with the ACT Budget (stop yawning; this is important), and then we get to the baffling pay rise for our new Governor General, Sam Mostyn. How big is the pay rise? How does 43 per cent sound? That's 43 per cent on a salary already nudging $500,000. (Let that sink in for a minut…

This week on The Hoot, the owls take a hard look at the ACT Government's 20-year plan to cull the number of poker machines in local clubs. Under the initiative, the number of poker machines in the ACT will be slashed to just 1000 by 2045 if Labor is re-elected in October (there are currently 3790). The primary goal is to reduce gambling harm. ACT L…

The Hoot: Is CSIRO's nuclear reaction a fusion of fact and fiction, or another sign of the times?

You've heard about CSIRO's analysis of nuclear power, right? And you remember when the ACT Government told you how great the next stages of light rail would be (although not the cost ... which is odd ... but we digress). And you saw the Treasurer deliver the Budget (gee, you really are a sucker for punishment, aren't you!) How reliable are the figu…

This week on The Hoot, David Murtagh and Claire Fenwicke delve deep into Jack's Law, a move by the Canberra Liberals to combat knife crime. Hard to disagree with, right? But there's a problem.

How about that Budget?! Thrilling, eh! Yep, we're in the 'meh' boat, too. Talk about a nothing burger. There's not much to get excited about - until you start looking under the bonnet at the tricks.
