That’s right, this week we’re going all hybrid on you.

Sally and Francis are joined by Ben Davison, who co-presents the uber cool political podcast “The Week on Wednesday” alongside writer, activist and force of nature, Van Badham.

Francis, Sally and Ben discuss the vaccine mandate that workers are facing, the fate of University jobs and why lecturers no longer have time to hang out and discuss your favourite Radiohead album with you, and why its not a good idea to make your dentist visit a once in a decade event.

*On the Job is made by Australian Unions.
