THE SHAKEUP: Melon gate, Sussan Ley's road to nowhere + looking hot at work

Hack

About this episode

Anthony Albanese's "joke" about receiving crown melons from Japan's Prime Minister has landed him in hot water. Was it problematic, or overblown? 

And, from leading the federal opposition to being "invisible" on a bus tour through the US, we unpack Sussan Ley's post-politics holiday. 

Plus, how much housework do you do? Are you ready to elevate your situationship to 'partner' status? The Census has been and gone, leaving tough questions in its wake. 

We also ask if looks matter in your industry. 

Host Dave Marchese is joined by Features Editor at The Daily Aus, Emma Gillespie, and creator Lachy McIntyre.
