For two years, a pack of Strepsils cost $5.50 at Coles. Then suddenly, it was $7. Then just as suddenly, it was on sale for $6 with a big "Down Down" discount tag. The ACCC examined that sequence of events and is now alleging that Coles is not offering discounts, but rather engaging in deceptive conduct in relation to a group of at least 245 items. Yesterday, the consumer watchdog began its case against Coles in Australia’s Federal Court, and on today’s pod, we're going to take a closer look at the hearing that could reshape supermarket pricing in Australia.

Hosts: Emily Donohoe and Sam Koslowski

Today, we're diving into allegations that some athletes at the 2026 Winter Olympics used penis-enlarging injections to gain a competitive advantage in ski jumping. Look, I know that sounds absolutely ridiculous, but stay with me because this is a real story that the World Anti-Doping Agency has said it will investigate further. The claims are that athletes might be manipulating their body measurements to access bigger suits, which would give them a genuine advantage in competition.
