Episode Details

Ben Carroll is poised to make his boldest move yet—challenging Premier Jacinta Allan for the top job in Victoria, just four months before election day. A seasoned MP since 2012 and former deputy premier, Carroll’s political ambition has always been clear, from his early days shaking hands with Bill Clinton to his controversial tenure as Education Minister, marked by strong test results and a notorious “cheat sheet” fiasco. Now, after publicly declaring his leadership bid, he’s positioning himself as a “marathon runner” with a vision to tackle corruption, fix the economy, and resolve the teachers’ pay crisis. This isn’t just another campaign—it’s a potential seismic shift in Victorian politics.
