Some call it a ‘Bracket’...

...…others call it a ‘Round Robin’! Either way it is the path to the BIG NEWS Championship. A weekly Podcast Tournament that pits BIG NEWS stories against one another, with winning stories advancing until the week's BIG NEWS Champion is crowned!

Anything that follows the question "Hey, did you hear the BIG NEWS?" is a potential candidate for the BIG NEWS Championship! As a result, the world's biggest political stories find themselves in Show Downs with the planet's most trivial entertainment news. The country's most controversial social conundrums face off against seemingly inconsequential sports stories. The BIG NEWS Championship is a uniquely Australian look at Domestic & World News from a Down Under perspective. Every story will make you think! And every match up will make you ask, "Could this story be the week's BIG NEWS Champion?".
