For the first time in history a US President is facing a criminal trial. In a New York courthouse, opening statements from prosecutors claimed that Trump's hush money trial was election interference but can they make that stick? In Australia, the government puts forward its migration act amendments in response to the High Court's decision which declared indefinite detention unconstitutional. Can the amendments survive another High Court challenge? HK Jack says the chances are good. JTI...

The Two Jacks examine recent violent events in Sydney, the most recent the stabbing of an Assyrian Orthodox Bishop in a church in Western Sydney and the tragedy of the Westfield attacks in Bondi Junction. In the void where information is not immediately forthcoming misinformation rules on social media and sadly in the mainstream media, too. In sport, England left arm tweaker 'Deadly' Derek Underwood passes away while in the AFL, the Eagles have a new star. 

The Two Jacks examine recent polling results in the US. Biden is coming back according to JTI who cites polling showing the incumbent is moving in the right direction. HK Jack predicts Trump will win the presidential election in November while JTI products Trump will lose including a loss in Florida. In Australia, the fate of Bruce Lehrmann hangs on Justice Lee's judgment due next week. 

Big news week this one. The stabbing attack in Bondi has given us pause for thought on many levels. A lot didn't pause or think, however, and simply spoke. They spoke nonsense. Unfortunately this simply gave us more pause for thought. Things feel very messy. Trump has set up an elaborate 'pump and dump' scheme with the $DJT stock backed by Truth Social. This idiot conman cult leader has managed to convince other idiots to part with their money because meme stock hysteria and general...

Expanded polling shows the Coalition has been unable to bridge the gap between it and the Albanese government. The polling at this stage in the electoral cycle remains stubbornly 52-48. Polling aside, the Liberal Party continues to ignore what was its constituency and has a serious problem with women voters. HK Jack says the Libs never really stood a chance of winning the next election given the serious rejection of the Morrison government. JTI maintains that a loss at the next election...

This week we are taking a deep dive into kambo frog poison. Two Australians are the subject of coronial inquiry after dying soon after the transdermal application of amazonian frog poison. Best part is - it doesn't even get you high. But it makes you sick. And then not being sick feels really good. It's mostly dumb. Is there something to it? Maybe. But it's mostly dumb. ------------------------ Please join the patreon. Give me money. Money me! Money now! Me a money needing a lot now. (IYKYK...

The Two Jacks discuss polling in the US which show Trump leading in seven battleground states. Are they right? We've already seen a much smaller vote for Trump in the primaries than the polls indicated. In Australia, the Albanese government announces multi billion dollar package for housing in remote Australia. Will it be value for money? In sport, the AFL and NRL seasons are underway with JTI's beloved Blues already chalking up two wins.

Cookers have not been idle though they have been travellin'. What's the deal there? We look at comments from John Graham about what REALLY causes road accidents. Mr. Lara Trump has found himself being completely burned by his Dad once again. SovCits are doing bank things. It's incredibly silly. They shouldn't. But they do. And a handy way to get out of paying to register a dog? Make it a person. Just follow this one trick magistrates HATE! In Pete we look at bitcoin and speculate that...

The Two Jacks discuss the lawyers' picning that has erupted over the Brittney Higgins rape case that led to a mistrial based on jury misconduct. Defamation action abounds now with five ACT police officers entering the fray, suing ACT prosecutor Shane Drumgold. The Libs launch their nuclear policy. Is it the longest political suicide note in Australian political history? In the US, HK Jack believes Joe Biden will be tapped and asked to withdraw his candidacy. We look at the possible...

The Two Jacks turn their attention to the breaking news of an unnamed federal MP who'd 'betrayed' his country to a foreign nation. Peter Dutton has his money on it being a Labor man. Hmm. Scomo hangs up five pairs of boots after a teary speech in the House. How will history judge the man? Alabama IVF clinics close in the wake of a judgment from the state's supreme court and that's a huge problem not just for Alabaman women but for Trump, says JTI. Tunisian born resident of France for three...

Had a mix up with file names - uploading this one fresh in case the other one still plays the old episode on your podcast app! JTI finds a dreadful case of government out of control in relation child sexual abuse. A waste of $10mil in public funds but a kick in the guts to victims of CSA still waiting on compensation. The Taylor Swift Eras tour is underway in Australia bringing with it billions in economic activity. For all that, she has been subject to criticism from the Left - "too white,...

The Taylor Swift Eras tour is underway in Australia bringing with it billions in economic activity. For all that, she has been subject to criticism from the Left - "too white, not sufficiently feminist" and from the Right who think's Swift is a liberal plant from the Biden Government. Whatever happened to appreciating other people's joy, folks? Albo gets engaged and HK Jack plays wedding planner. The two boat arrivals in WA have brought headlines but the real problem, HK Jack says is there...

The Two Jacks discuss the film of Barnaby Joyce in a state of advanced refreshment in Braddon, ACT. Is it a sacking offence? Well, plenty of workers would have similar experiences on a Friday night and not be offered a couple of months personal leave as a result. Get back to work, Barnaby. Meanwhile, HK Jack faces a letter from a listener on the NDIS who knows a good deal more on the scheme. HK Jack plays a dead bat. Is Israel's push into Rafah a step too far in the Gaza conflict? Can an...

Craig Kelly either got hacked or retweeted a video of incest foot porn. Dunno which - but it's difficult to be hacked in the way he is suggesting. Evidence points to no. BUT we must take him on his word. Must we? The lawyers suggest we should. Economist turned cooker Dr. Wilson Sy has released a paper suggesting that COVID doesn't exist - and that it was simply a mass euthanasia program in the UK. Some deaths might be from the jab but the rest are from MIDAZOLAM. Segment is worth the listen...

The Stage 3 tax cuts as amended by the Albanese Government have been an early success. Does it give Albo the opportunity to reset the political narrative for 2024? The early polling is unclear and JTI suggests the polls can be ignored until the cash drops to the punters in July. Nemesis runs on the ABC with most of the Libs and Nats giving us their take on the Abbott-Turnbull-Morrison Years. Why do they subject themselves to these exercises? Is it ego? Meanwhile in the US, the DC four count...

We're back with a deeper dive on the executive producer of the Sound of Freedom - Paul Hutchinson. He's a money man. Made his money being a money man in real estate. Now he's a money man for the movies and a money man for saving the kids. An interesting chap. Very accomplished if you take his word for it. But it seems like there might be an interesting relationship between Hutchy and the truth. Does he suck as much as Tim Ballard? Maybe. Probably not. But the fact that we have to ask the...

The electoral support for tax cuts is yet to drop and JTI says there's no point looking at polls until at least July when the money drops. Politicians lie as one of listeners reminds us (as if we needed reminding) and live to lie another day. HK Jack says there may be a little loss of skin but overall the package should be well received. The Government actuary (yes, there is one) predicts extraordinary cost blow outs in the NDIS over the next decade and HK Jack makes a few suggestions on how...

The Stage Three tax cut restructure has been announced. Albo has backed away from a promise and bracket creep remains real. He may lose some skin over it but overall, the announcement means 11 million Australian workers will pay lower taxes as of July 1. JTI believes it's designed to wedge Peter Dutton in the regions and outer suburbs where Dutton wants to take the Libs. Scott Morrison resigns from the parliament. Where does he stand on the pantheon of Prime Ministers? A fair way down but...

Jack examines the life of Roger Rogerson, part creature of NSW Police culture and part psychopath, Rogerson killed in the line of duty and killed for profit. What was his role in Chris Flannery's death? Sally Ann Huckstep's murder?

EDIT - CORRECTION: From @daggydad on Twitter. Dr John Campbell is an a&e nurse with a PhD, not a doctor of medicine. @GasmanR went on to elaborate Small pedantic correction, Dr John Campbell is a nurse not a doctor. He does hold a valid Phd and can use the honorific doctor - but it is in the discipline of nursing education, he is not a medical doctor. While unfortunately a small number of my fellow doctors are raving cookers (including unfortunately a guy I went to university with and...

The Two Jacks discuss the latest furore over Australia's National Holiday. Have the arguments hit a new low? With Peter Dutton's calls to boycott Woolworths, the Two Jacks say it couldn't possibly get crazier. A day of nationhood is needed, one that will unify Australians and not divide them. In the US, Trump takes Iowa with Nikki Haley looking like having a fighting chance of winning New Hampshire. Around the world, how do progressive Jews view the response from their fellow non-Jewish...

Here's a preview of this weeks premium epiosde. From as little as five bucks a month! Don't make me get all weird and shame you like Dave Oneegs does - if you can't afford it, you just need to like want it more. Winners grindset bro. If any of you are missing out because you're actually broke drop me a line and I'll send you a file. It's the honour system so don't tell me fibs! Enjoy the free...

This week Joel has a chat with Neil Sanders of the excellent podcast Some Dare Call It Conspiracy - which you should all be subscribed to already. We look at the puppet masters of the alt media who are pushing their agenda onto the hapless conspiracy movement that don't seem to notice that all their beliefs just happen to be fossil fuel industry talking points. FUNNY THAT. Neil is one of the few people I can think of (Daniel Morrison, Brendan from BIAS/Dirt Unit) who really get this...
