About this listen

In Brains Trust Season 2, journalist and producer Chris Walker learns about today’s world with provocative, inspiring, meaningful, and funny discussions with a ‘Brains Trust’ of notable Australians (and one very captivating American).

Featuring Samantha Armytage, Tommy Little, Abbie Chatfield, Tony Armstrong, Jamila Rizvi, Charlie Pickering, and tech entrepreneur Rob Reid, the conversations are woven together so you can eavesdrop on the ultimate dinner party where the Brain Trust talk about all the topics you SHOULDN’T talk about at the dinner table.

Season 1 was a reflection on the year of 2020 with Hamish Blake, Dr Chris Brown, Annabel Crabb, Waleed Aly, Ronny Chieng, Adam Briggs, and Kitty Flanagan discussing COVID, Media, Politics, Family, The Planet, Science, Conspiracy Theories and more.
