Our summer podcast series brings you some of the best conversations from our webinars and live events in 2023. 

One of the great mysteries of Australian life is that a land of sweeping plains, with one of the lowest population densities on the planet, has a shortage of land for houses. As a result, Sydney’s median house price is the second most expensive on Earth, after Hong Kong’s. Alan Kohler discusses his latest essay and tells the story of how we got into this mess – and how we might get out of it.

This was recorded on Tuesday 28th November 2023 and things may have changed since recording.
