DEEP DIVE: What is CGT and would ditching the discount make housing cheaper?

Have you clocked people talking about the capital gains tax discount this week? It's a tax break that basically lets property owners pay less tax when they sell their houses, and it tends to benefit older, richer Australians and investors. So when it comes to the generational wealth divide, is it part of the problem? A bunch of economists certainly think so, and this week there've been hints from the government that some type of change might be on the table. So what might that look like? On the deep dive today, we unpack whether the capital gains tax is fair, and chat to an economist about policy alternatives.

THE SHAKEUP: What 'difficult' means, White House hockey + ditching group assignments

A single word from Anthony Albanese this week got massive backlash, after he called child sexual abuse survivor and former Australian of the Year Grace Tame "difficult". So what's with that word? And does Anthony Albanese's explanation about why he used it stack up? And the gold medal-winning US men's hockey team got into trouble for laughing when Donald Trump joked about not inviting the gold medal-winning women's team to his State of the Union speech. Plus, do group assignments need to go? One politician is calling on unis to ban them, saying they cheapen degrees. We hear your group project nightmares.

DEEP DIVE: Is hanging out with old people good for you?

When you think about your best friends, you're probably thinking of people around the same age. Maybe people you know from school, or at work, or who you grew up with. But have you ever built a friendship with someone who's a lot older — maybe 30, 40 or 50 years your senior? On the hack deep dive this week, we're hearing from people who reckon their intergenerational friendships give them access to insights, perspectives and wisdom they would otherwise never get to experience. We hear from a 17-year-old with a group of friends in their 50s, a teenager who's learnt so much from chats with his elders, and we tag along with our own reporter Alice Angeloni on her hangout with her 82-year-old friend Clive. Could friendships like these help with Australia's growing problem of loneliness? We also catch up with a psychologist who reckons: yes.
