Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The 2026 Budget For Basic B*tches
Q: What political response are you anticipating to criticisms of the budget, and how do you respond to naysayers?
We acknowledge there will be noise, but encourage engagement on the substance: helping younger Australians buy homes and making policies affordable, with reform that balances fiscal responsibility against signaling positive change.
Vigil Tonight For Alice Springs Lost Little Girl & Can We Talk Our Way Out Of The Manosphere?
Q: Why is it important to involve men directly in conversations about family violence and health?
Involving men is crucial because changing outcomes requires cultural shifts in attitudes and behaviors within communities; conversations with men help identify practical barriers and solutions, ensuring policies address real-world needs and are effectively implemented.
Vigil Tonight For Alice Springs Lost Little Girl & Can We Talk Our Way Out Of The Manosphere?
Q: Can you walk us through what the National Healthy Men Community Conversations plan involves?
The plan is a listening tour across the country where men, local services, and organizations discuss how to keep men physically, mentally, and socially well, with the aim of shaping future policy on men's health and preventing violence, rather than simply funding existing programs.
As Australia Mourns Kumanjayi Little Baby, Big Questions Have Been Raised
Q: Catherine, how does Alice recover from this? What do the next weeks look like?
She explains that recovery involves continued mourning, community-led dialogue, and careful scrutiny of housing, child welfare, and policy mechanisms to ensure communities are safer and better supported without politicizing the tragedy.
As Australia Mourns Kumanjayi Little Baby, Big Questions Have Been Raised
