} We talk with CommsDay chief editor Simon Dux about Optus' takeover of Amaysim, the launch of the new GoMo band and calls from Commpete for regulatory intervention in the MVNO market.  Simon also talks about the issues which private LTE operators face in gaining licensed spectrum.

] Executive editor Rohan Pearce takes a look back at this week's NBN parliamentary hearing where they discussed their preparations for the next bushfire season as well as their mmWave trials. We also discuss NBN's acquisition of its business satellite services providers.

] In an extended chat, I discuss the US election with renown NY telecom analyst Dave Burstein. We canvass what a Biden win might mean for the pushback on China's role in the global telecom supply chain as well as what it will mean for the net neutrality debate. And we then move on to take a look at America's 5G market, what's happening with the user case and handset prices. It's a great discussion across a wide array of topics and worth a listen.
