This week marks exactly a year since COVID-19 was officially named by the World Health Organisation. To mark the occasion I thought I’d look back on a year of predictions to see exactly what Australia got right and wrong about the pandemic. And why Scott Morrison shouldn't get the credit!

And joining me for a chat about the past week is RAW Comedy Winner and former Tonightly writer Bec Melrose.

Also in the headlines I look at the eventual vaccine rollout, vague climate targets and AFL racism.
