Penny Wong on hack, new depression treatment + back to the moon

Hack

About this episode

Donald Trump made a big speech at the UN in New York this morning, going to town on climate change, immigration and... teleprompters and escalators. 

Penny Wong was there for the speech: we talk to her about it, as well as Australia recognising Palestine and our relationship with Iran. 

Plus, have you heard of trans-cranial magnetic stimulation? It’s a high tech way of treating depression, and it just got TGA approval. 

Also: why NASA's heading back to the moon.
