South Australia could soon become one of the first places in the world to ban political donations in state elections.

The announcement from the state government this week has reignited a national debate about how our political parties are funded, what donors want from their donations, and how else we could model the system.

In today’s podcast, we’ll look at what the South Australian Premier is proposing, but also how things work in the political donation hall of fame - the United States.

Listen to "Why is Australia so good at swimming?"
