News Fighters

This fortnight I look at the biggest news story of the year: THE LIONS ON THE LOOSE! Also with inflation and interest rates rising here in Australia, it’s time to call out everyone who is profiting from the war in Ukraine and why they’ll never stop!

Also my guest is comedian Tom Ballard author of the book “I Millennial, one snowflake’s screed against boomers, billionaires and everything else”. We also talk about housing affordability, class struggle and his new Greens podcast Serious Danger.

Happy Budget Night! Jim Chalmers has delivered his first budget, and it definitely feels a lot gloomier and less shouty than the coalition budgets of recent years. With energy prices and grocery costs rising, we take an indepth look at Labor’s cost of living measures which will help new parents and ahhh… errr… that’s about it to be honest. Enjoy!

We look back on the turbulent Prime Ministership of Britain’s Liz Truss from 2022 to 2022. From the stumbles and lowlights to the near economic catastrophes, this is a PM for the history books (or at least the pub trivia nights). Also who’s next and when is the next British election?

After a couple of delays we finally evaluate Anthony Albanese’s first 100 days in office (give or take 37). We look back on Albo 747’s countless overseas trips, his celebrity encounters, policy sellouts and his complete abandonment of insecure workers over COVID 19 sick pay.

Well what a whirlwind fortnight for the British royal family. I look back at how the news of the Queen’s death rolled out across the world and at local reactions from former Australian Prime Ministers to bewildered people on the street. I also look at the proclamation of our new head of state, King Charles III (a man that none of us voted for) and why some Aussies might actually like him.

We take an indepth look at the election of new UK PM Liz Truss and why she's basically the UK's equivalent of Scott Morrison.

We’re back with an all new episode which has an indepth look at FORMER Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s recent car crash press conference where he tried to deny his way out of admitting he seized other minister’s portfolios at the height of the pandemic, but only for emergency use and only because it was in the national interest.

Also we are looking for SPONSORS and new patrons. You can get ad-free episodes for just $6/month! But we also want to find 3 sponsors to pay us $300/month (with shoutouts included) so Dylan can almost get the legal paid minimum wage to make TWO deep dive episodes a month.

I'm on break but I thought it was a good time to replay an extended version of my segment from last year on Russian President Vladimir Putin's bombastic call in TV show, in which he actually foreshadowed his invasion of Ukraine.

Originally released the day Boris Johnson became British PM in 2019, we replay a very prophetic episode previewing the narcisstic lying sh*tshow that would characterise his leadership as well as his potential future ambition.
