We're back, BroadTalkers! And in this special series we cast a razor-sharp gender lens over the politics, policy, and pork-barrelling of Australia's Federal Election 2022. Joining Virginia Haussegger to discuss the first week of campaigning are Jane Caro and Georgie Dent.

This week the BroadTalk team ask whether a Federal integrity commission is a vote-changer, discuss the way that greater access to childcare could turbo-charge job creation, ask when our political leaders are going to have a debate about equity, and wonder where the voice of women was in week one of the campaign.

Jane Caro AM is a Walkley Award winning author and columnist who is standing as a candidate for Reason Australia for the Senate at the forthcoming election.

Georgie Dent is a journalist, editor, author, and prominent advocate for women's empowerment, gender equality and mental health. She is the Executive Director of The Parenthood, and the author of Breaking Badly.

BroadTalk is presented by Virginia Haussegger AM and is a production of BroadTalk Media. It is produced by Martyn Pearce.
