Welcome to another pilot episode of the News Fighters Daily News Wrap where I recap the TV news bulletins so you don't have to buy a TV.

Today: Trump's Aussie promotion, Australia's ICE-like immigration raid & the ageist internet changes coming soon!

I knocked this news wrap out in less than four hours and would love to find a platform for this content. Interested? Hit me up: [email protected].

News Fighters is back from hiatus with a one-off recap of the 2025 Australian Federal Election campaign policies from the two major parties. It’s do-nothing Anthony Albanese versus the uncosted Peter Dutton. Who will win on May 3? Not the Australian people by the looks of it!

After 5 years and 125 episodes News Fighters is going on indefinite hiatus while I work on other projects. But in the meantime I thought I’d re-release some classic episodes to the podcast feed to recap some of our better, least topical moments which hold up to this day.

An incredibly huge thank you to everyone who's listened, shared, guested, hosted and written with us, especially regular contributors Stefan Pazur and Bec Melrose, and Dan Ilic at A Rational Fear.
