  • Why listen to angry and bitter people

    Using bad data, poor arguments, inaccurate assumptions. Keep on listening to this if you’re unable to understand logic.

  • Define an Australian!

    Sam I’m a great fan of your podcast and enjoy your reel rants too. On this issue however I really disagree with how you interpret who is Australian.

    Your debate with Joanna and James got really fierce and at times you let yourself down with your anger towards James. As a British Australian myself who has been naturalised,(not born here) I claim to be British Australian.

    Joanna Howe, regardless of her Indian background is Australian as she is definitely a part of Australian culture and has our... more

  • UnAustralian.

    How many times can you say “if you can’t define it, you can’t defend it” in a single episode? With the calibre of guests that are on this podcast it could be amazing, but Sam you’re just so angry and aggressive. The way you spoke to Dr Howe and her husband was disgraceful and unAustralian. She’s done (and continues to do) far more for Australia than you ever will.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#105 - Troy Candy - Australia Is Becoming Harder To Succeed In
Q: So to educate me, who are you voting for?
The guest explains he leans toward a right-leaning party with a strong Australia-first immigration and debt-reduction platform, viewing it as the pragmatic stepping stone to long-term change rather than a perfect solution.
#106 - Calista Clements - Monoculture, University Indoctrination & National Identity
Q: Would you ever consider running for political office?
It's a real possibility as the culture war intensifies and there's a hunger for a commonsense alternative; I'm focused on media and public discourse for now, but politics could be in the future.
#106 - Calista Clements - Monoculture, University Indoctrination & National Identity
Q: Why did you start speaking up in the public sphere in the 2000s?
I felt there wasn't much room for voices that questioned the rising woke narratives; with a background in activism and a pragmatic family environment, I decided it was time to share my perspectives rather than stay silent.
#103 - Former SAS Captain Mark Wales - Immigration, War & Australia’s Future
Q: How do you view the budget's approach to immigration and economic policy?
He contends that the budget relies on immigration to stimulate growth, which he views as a risky, potentially unsustainable tactic that masks deeper structural issues in policy making and economic planning.
#103 - Former SAS Captain Mark Wales - Immigration, War & Australia’s Future
Q: What are your thoughts on voting behavior and the impact of immigration on housing and services?
The guest argues that higher immigration without corresponding growth and infrastructure reduces living standards, inflates housing costs, and pressures services, suggesting a need for policy that balances population growth with economic and housing capacity.
