On this week's podcast, we pay a visit to one of our favourite friends of the pod.

Wayne Swan is a Labor legend. the proud Queenslander served as the Member for Lilley between 1993-1996 and again from 1998-2019.

As Treasurer in the Rudd/Gillard governments, he steered Australia successfully through the Global Financial Crisis that decimated economies around the globe from 2008 until 2012 and beyond. Having retired from parliamentary politics, "Swanny" remains active as the National President of the Australian Labor Party. Wayne Swan is a proud advocate and champion for workers, Unions, and a fairer economy that shares its wealth more equally. 

Francis paid him a visit at his Brisbane home to discuss the challenges and opportunities the Albanese Labor Government faces in making Australia a better place for all.

The way we work, how work is changing, how it used to be and what it might look like in the future.

It’s about who we work with, and who we work for.

It’s a discussion about the conditions in which we work and the demands of a job.

It’s talking about how it can be the best thing in our lives and also the worst.

Work can give us meaning and satisfaction, it can be the most challenging thing we’ve ever done and the most soul destroying days of our lives.

And that can all be in the same week!

Above all, we want to talk about work in a way that helps make work better for everyone
who listens.
