I get it - Trump is an idiot and has a major impact on the world, but this is getting ridiculous with how many episodes are focused on America. Can we hear more about Australia?
Listened for over 20 years to ABC podcasts. But how quickly they were able to bow to a foreign government is quite frankly scary. Antoinette Latouf was fired for sighting a human rights watch article in her spare time.
They say they got to do better but I never hear Palestinian voices when they are part of the news and it’s almost like all Jewish Australians support the IDF. I know that’s not true.
Don’t listen. Look for independent journalists.
Since the start of 2026, we’ve had the devastating bushfires in Victoria and not one episode. They’d rather focus on stories about Trump and the USA again for the millionth time. And to think my tax money goes to this and I’m hearing US news not what’s actually here in our own country. Shame on you!!!
They said 67 and I like this podcast it is good for kids because I am a kid
