For nearly two years the federal government, supported by the mainstream media, has strongly denied that Australia is selling weapons to Israel. Today on the show, Os and Scott unpack exactly how Australia is part of the weapons supply-chain, our complicity in the genocide in Gaza, and how the government got away with misleading the public for so long.

They also discuss the reaction to Anthony Albanese's announcement that Australia will recognise Palestine, and look at how most Labor policy is calibrated to satisfy political journalists, rather than the public.

Then they discuss the huge transformation taking place across the podcast industry, as the biggest media companies scrap well-researched, narrative-led shows in favour of influencer and celebrity focused content and pivot hard to video.

And in Keeping Tabs, a popular news influencer outlines their plan to build a new political party sitting somewhere between Labor and The Greens, and a bit of behind-the-scenes on how Lamestream breaks stories.
