    The best for quick Aussie news
    I’ve been an avid listener of The Squiz for 3+ years. As an American, it’s hard to find quick, digestible Aussie news yet The Squiz nails it while providing some good laughs. The witty dynamic between Kate, Claire, Larissa and the rest of the hosts brings light into my day. Plus it’s great getting tomorrow’s news early since I live in the US :)
