Watch as the 2024 Australian Political Book of the Year winner, Chris Masters, joins Walkley award-winning journalist Michael Bachelard to revisit 'Flawed Hero' and discuss recent developments in the Ben Roberts-Smith case. Following that, Barrie Cassidy unveils the highly anticipated shortlist for the 2025 Australian Political Book of the Year Award.

Australian Political Book of the Year: 2025 Shortlist Announcement was originally recorded on Monday 8 September 2025 at The Wheeler Centre.

The Australian Political Book of the Year Award recognises the vital part political books play in better understanding Australian politics and public policy โ€“ from thoroughly researched investigations into the scandals and upheavals that have shaped the nation to deep dives into the psyches of those who hold positions of power.

Discover the four remarkable books and authors in contention for this award as Bachelard and Masters discuss the vital importance of robust political discourse.
