This week we delved into Australia's broken political donations system,
reported on Julian Assange's last legal roll of the dice,
decided whether artificial intelligence will impact the many elections around the globe this year,
and wondered whether it might be time for a new competition-loving politician like Paul Keating.
Meanwhile Woolworths CEO Brad Banducci resigned,
prompting us to explain what “on the record” actually means and run through the culture warriors lining up to claim his scalp.
Plus Guy Rundle went to stood outside Taylor Swift's concert and loved it.
We hope you’re having a fantastic weekend. |

Taylor Swift soars above her peers not because her fanbase is addled and easily led, but due to the exact opposite: they’re pre-teen epicureans, attuned to finding the best that is sung and strummed.
