Reviews

4.5 out of 5 stars from 4.3k ratings
  • Too many ads

    I like this PC but unfortunately I’m probably going to ditch it because there’s just too many ads. Especially after listening for about 4 minutes, then 2 or 3 ads! Too much.

  • Essential listening

    I’m surprised at some of the 1 star reviews- it just shows that we live in a world where people can only think in extremes.

    7am went through a change when it separates from Schwartz media. However, it is still en excellent source of opinion and up to date interviews about current issues. The team clearly works hard to produce this. There is a left lean, which is fine for me.

  • Has lost its way

    I've listened to this podcast daily for over two years. It was fantastic, but has become so left-wing lately that it sounds like Karl Marx is in charge! So much for "independent journalism"

  • Time to shut it down

    It is probably the most sexist show I have ever listened too. If it was males hosts it could have been cancelled years ago. I have listed for several years but it took my son listening in the car to point out to me that they keep denegrating males and whenever any topic is up it is “guys/men” if it was women it would be better … sad I did not notice myself

“I feel sick about it”: Tanya Plibersek on the Swans, Scots College and rising misogyny
Q: What role do education and consent programs play in changing attitudes?
Education programs like respectful relationships, consent education, and collaborations with organisations like Teach Us Consent are central to changing attitudes, alongside empowering parents and peers to discuss these issues openly.
“I feel sick about it”: Tanya Plibersek on the Swans, Scots College and rising misogyny
Q: What actions is the government taking to tackle online harms and misogyny among youths?
The government is pursuing a digital duty of care, banning under-16s from certain platforms, enforcing age checks, banning deepfakes, and funding education programs like respectful relationships and porn literacy.
“I feel sick about it”: Tanya Plibersek on the Swans, Scots College and rising misogyny
Q: What makes up a strong institutional response to these cases?
A strong response centers on supporting the victim, reframing the issue to address behaviours, and ensuring ongoing accountability across clubs, schools, and organizations involved.
“I feel sick about it”: Tanya Plibersek on the Swans, Scots College and rising misogyny
Q: You've been critical of the response from both the club and the school. Why is that?
The response in the early hours tended to minimize institutional responsibility; the guest stresses that victims must be centred and that institutions should focus on addressing behaviours rather than protecting reputations.
Operation Economic Outcast: Can Trump really isolate Iran?
Q: If Tehran thinks that it can endure this, wait it out, what leverage does Trump actually have left at this point?
Trump's leverage hinges on the global economic system's dependence on the dollar and allied support, but enduring pressure without broad consensus risks pushing Iran to seek resilience through its regional and global partners, reducing the effectiveness of sanctions.
