Episode description

Afternoon Headlines: Anthony Albanese promises finical help for flood disaster victims, the Liberals and Nationals inch closer to reuniting and Donald Trump’s administration bans Harvard University from enrolling international students

Deep Dive: Fair game or a disgrace to sport? The controversial Enhanced Games were officially launched this week with its first event set to take place next year in Las Vegas. 

Aussie world champion James Magnussen is among those to sign up and take performance enhancing drugs to compete in the major event next year in Vegas with million dollar prizes up for grabs.

In this episode of The Briefing Natarsha Belling is joined by sports journalists Tracy Holmes who argues the Enhanced Games aren’t about the athletes, they’re about the multi-billion-dollar bio tech industry.
