June 21, 2026 Hands-Off Hanson, Sane-Washing, and the Algae Is Winning
This week, Jo Dyer and David Milner are joined by Bruce Wolpe and first-time guest Charlie Lewis from Crikey. The panel dissects that National Press Club address, and how the media (mis)handled Hanson's inflammatory rhetoric, as well as a curious pre-event disinvitation, and why so many reporters seemed more concerned about keeping Hanson happy than holding her accountable.

Also on the agenda, the Albanese government's latest capitulation to business lobby pressure on tax reform, Gina Reinhart's bizarre proposal to hand Australian islands to Elon Musk or Israeli defence contractors, and Trump's reasons for starting a war he couldn't win.

June 14, 2026 The World-ish Cup? - Emma Shortis, Michael Pascoe, and Jayson Gillham
That feeling when the government's budget lacks principle and accountability, and we all suffer because the math ain't mathing on those secondhand subs we totally always wanted.

Our panel looks deeper at the budget after many Senate estimates questions (and non-answers), and examines the erratic behaviour of statements coming out of the White House.

Plus, Dave interviews concert pianist Jayson Gillham, formerly of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, who had a performance cancelled for speaking out about Israel murdering Palestinian journalists.
