In this episode, the Sentinel's editor Peter Hackney and features editor Travis de Jonk explore the top headlines of the week, including City of Sydney councillor Dr Kerryn Phelps dropping out of the Sydney Lord Mayor race in September elections; The star studded launch of RuPaul's Drag Race Downunder at the Sydney Opera House and premiere on Stan; And the NSW Government being accused of 'privatisation of public land' by disgruntled Pyrmont residents; And the mixed community reaction received by a report into the Kings Cross' planned revitalisation.

This week we speak to Rita Bratovich - the arts and entertainment editor at the Sydney Sentinel - about her role, her career highlights and why she does what she does.
