About this episode
Konrad Benjamin from Punter's Politics went from being a school teacher 2 years ago to one of Australia's most influential political commentators.
He's got millions of followers by pushing a pretty simple message: keep money out of politics.
He's been in Canberra this week, putting on a fundraiser that gives regular people access to politicians.
So how has it gone?
In this longer interview cut, Konrad talks to Dave about the pressure he feels to keep going and why he's taking on lobbyists.
