On this episode, we look back on some of our favourite Policy Forum Pod moments ahead of this year’s Australian Podcast Awards.
Over recent weeks, the Policy Forum Pod team has been busily preparing our submission for the Australian Podcast Awards. In this time, we’ve had the chance to listen back through some of our favourite moments on the pod since the beginning of 2019. We all know happiness grows when it’s shared, so in this episode we invite you to join us on a little trip down memory lane, re-visiting some of our most engaging, emotional, and insightful discussions.
