Great new Australian political podcast

There is a void within the podcasts covering Australian politics. Other podcasts on the subject are quality however the depth of analysis in "the thought bubble" is second to none.
Recording quality is sound and guests so far have been highly qualified and interesting.
I look forward to adding 'the thought bubble' to my regular podcast rotation
