Our Take: HBO's Harry Potter, a kidney donation & Chris loses to English (again)

Our Take: HBO's Harry Potter, a kidney donation & Chris loses to English (again)

Well, well, well… fancy seeing you here.

Welcome back to The Briefing: Our Take, our weekend hang-out where we loosen our ties and kick off our shoes to take you behind the scenes of the week that was, and what you (and we) made of it.

This week Chris and Sach get into HBO's new Harry Potter series dropping on Christmas Day. They react to the latest trailer, dig through your comments on it, and discuss whether they’re going to watch it.

They're also joined in studio by 2DayFM's very own Emma Chow, who steps up to The Weekend Quiz but somehow manages to get them talking about Tipping Point and Sach’s days as a court reporter.

They also discuss Emma’s very exciting news she received this week!

The Weekend Quiz (just questions, no answers):

  1. The government this week proposed new laws that could give us the power to opt out of, or switch off, the algorithm on socials. What's it called?
  2. Pauline Hanson was on ABC News24 this week and got into a bit of argy-bargy with Chris Kenny. What were they arguing over?
  3. We spoke to Greens Senator David Shoebridge on the pod this week. He was appointed the party's first-ever spokesperson for what?
  4. A Melbourne council this week announced it would be banning what from public pools and playgrounds?
  5. What subject did Chris and Sach admit on the podcast they cared the least about in school?

The Weekend List:

To watch: New Zealand Spy on ABC iview (thanks to listener Jay)
To listen to: Harry Potter audiobook for free on Spotify
