  • Dezi anti government?

    I was wondering how Dezi Freeman & his family lived given that he didn’t work? So anti government yet he lived on Centrelink benefits?

  • Don’t let seven news do podcasts.

    “The hunt for Desi Freeman” what Absolute garbage is this? lasted half way through first episode, got to where the supposed journalist says “other people helping him were so close they were almost related!” My god you fools how does one become “almost related” you either are, or aren’t. Simple. Other than this abysmal Desi Freeman rubbish, secrets we keep is great, please don’t let seven news do podcasts.

  • Good Podcast

    Harry Hobbs talks way to fast for podcasting haha! However very interesting and makes me realise I have a little bit of sovereign citizen in me. If another pandemic broke out and gov tried to vax me, make me wear a mask and lock me down again, I don’t think I’d co-operate so easily any more. We are definitely over governed now and people are getting fed up!

    It’s a shame to see Joey Watson go and for this podcast to get the channel 7 treatment. Disappointed with the new direction and missing Joey’s thoughtful, in-depth storytelling
