There's been another major twist in the presidential contest with Joe Biden being persuaded to step aside, allowing his VP, Kamala Harris to step in. She isn't quite confirmed as the nominee yet but it seems Barack Obama is more or less alone among senior Democrats in calling for an open convention in Chicago on 19 August. The Two Jacks discuss the role of Nancy Pelosi as Joe's executioner. As all good politicians must, she led the tributes to the 46th POTUS with metaphorical blood on her hands and proved herself to be a leader of consequence. Can Harris beat Trump? It's more than possible but she is starting from six lengths behind. In other news, the Brits show us the pathway to political civility as Sir Keir Starmer announces a major change to housing policy in the UK. Germany cuts its military aid to Ukraine by half. While in sport, the return of warm up games would assist battling cricket nations as a quick fix for the terrible mess Test cricket finds itself in.

Welcome to The Conditional Release Program, a podcast that delves into the netherworld of cults, crims and con artists.Who would have thought a spicy chest cough would turn everyone so completely mad?Our weekly show covers the conspiracy theorists that created a &#39;shadow pandemic&#39; of political idiocy and violent ideation within the fringe of politics. From time to time we get our hands even dirtier with true crime deep dives. Jack is a seasoned expert in the true crime genre, having written and spoken extensively about Roger Rogerson, Stan &#39;the man&#39; Smith and, of course, the Fine Cotton Fiasco. In various episodes he guides us through the dark underbelly of Australian crime in his trademark storytelling style. The world is getting weird and we are getting weird with it. Let&#39;s watch as democracy crumbles into a smouldering heap - and take note of the kids carrying the matches and the metho. Hosted by Jack the Insider and Joel Hill with an occasional rotation of guests that generally share our distaste toward the lunatic fringe.
