The Betoota Advocate drafts up a list of our ten favourite Kiwis and he drafts up a list of his ten favourite Aussies. We then make three trades.

What the heck are the midterms? And how do they affect us down here? Former US correspondent for Nine, Charles Croucher, joins Betoota Talks to give us the run down on the many different political soap operas currently taking place across the United States. For the first time since the Obama era, it looks as if the US Democrats are the party trying new things - and it seems to be working. Does this make Trump old news?

WEEKLY BULLETIN: Sleep Scores, New Sydney Airport & Ben Roberts Smith Catered Headlines 

One of Australia's most decorated living authors, Anna Funder, joins Betoota Talks to discuss about how the current state of global politics and economics feels kind of familiar. A keen student of pre-war Europe and an on-the-ground observer of Easter Berlin after the wall came down, Funder talks about modern wealth inequality like we might be in denial about how tough things really are. Why is trust in our democratic institutions so low? Why do the Tech Bros have a seemingly free rein? But she's always the optimist!
