Episode Description

China's President Xi Jinping has hosted a major summit and put on the biggest military parade during peacetime. We’ll get you across the significance - and former Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews’ attendance. We'll also cover the anti-immigration protests and simmering debate that went into this week, and we’ll intro you to  Chloe Malle, American Vogue’s new editor. In what's coming up, Erin Patterson's live-streamed sentencing, and where to be early Monday morning for the astronomical event of the year.
