- 0:00Speaker 1: Lateener, welcome wait debate.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Well, it's great to have your company on the Late
- 0:08Speaker 2: Debate James Macpherson with Liz Storer and Caleb Bond coming up.
- 0:12Speaker 2: A Melbourne real estate agent reckons he should be the
- 0:14Speaker 2: one to sell your house because he's the best looking
- 0:16Speaker 2: real estate agent in all of Melbourne.
- 0:18Speaker 3: I'll show you a photograph a little lately.
- 0:20Speaker 4: Lucky, I'm not a real estate agent in Melbourne. He'd
- 0:23Speaker 4: have some competition for that title.
- 0:26Speaker 5: First.
- 0:26Speaker 3: We'll decide after that, Caleb.
- 0:28Speaker 2: Plus, when we look at the papers, fresh questions being
- 0:31Speaker 2: asked about the death of Cardinal George pell and hospital
- 0:35Speaker 2: workers doctors and nurses wearing body cams amid a rising
- 0:39Speaker 2: number of assaults. But first, Victorian politicians gave themselves a
- 0:43Speaker 2: three point five percent pay rise yesterday, which took the
- 0:47Speaker 2: Victorian premier just sent to Alan's annual wage up to
- 0:50Speaker 2: almost half a million dollars, which isn't a bad reward
- 0:54Speaker 2: for presiding over a state with a net debt approaching
- 0:57Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty five dollars and rising. And of
- 1:01Speaker 2: course she gets this pay rise at the same time
- 1:04Speaker 2: that she's telling Victorian hospitals they need to drastically cut
- 1:08Speaker 2: back on their operations budget because you know, the state
- 1:11Speaker 2: just doesn't have enough money. So with all of that
- 1:14Speaker 2: going on, this tweet from Justin to Allen yesterday caught
- 1:18Speaker 2: our attention. She tweeted, today marks one hundred and seventy
- 1:22Speaker 2: three years since Victoria legally separated from New South Wales.
- 1:26Speaker 2: Best move we ever made. Well, there's nothing like trying
- 1:31Speaker 2: to distract everyone from your undeserved pay rise with a
- 1:35Speaker 2: little bit of infantile interstate rivalry.
- 1:38Speaker 6: But interestingly, in eighteen.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Fifty one, the same year that Victoria separated from New
- 1:42Speaker 2: South Wales, Victoria announced.
- 1:45Speaker 6: A gold rush. But with all of that gold.
- 1:47Speaker 2: One hundred and seventy three years later, there's something like
- 1:50Speaker 2: thirty billion dollars more in debt than New South Wales
- 1:54Speaker 2: and still you can't get a train from Tullamarine to
- 1:57Speaker 2: the city.
- 1:58Speaker 3: Caleb.
- 1:59Speaker 4: It's an absolute disgrace. Look, let's be perfectly honest here.
- 2:02Speaker 4: Many Victorians would like to rejoin New South Wales tomorrow
- 2:07Speaker 4: because they know how bad the situation is, they know
- 2:10Speaker 4: how bad the debt is. They're desperate for a labor
- 2:13Speaker 4: right premiere instead of a labor left premiere.
- 2:16Speaker 6: But you look at their debt down there.
- 2:18Speaker 4: They're the most indebted state in the country, and they're
- 2:20Speaker 4: actually one of the most indebted jurisdictions in the world.
- 2:24Speaker 3: Can you believe it?
- 2:25Speaker 4: But it's like you know that Johnny Cash song five
- 2:28Speaker 4: feet high in Rising?
- 2:29Speaker 6: How high is the water, Mama?
- 2:31Speaker 4: Well in this case, it's like, you know, how high
- 2:33Speaker 4: is the state debt, Mama? Billions and billions in rising
- 2:36Speaker 4: and just keeps going up and up up.
- 2:38Speaker 6: It won't stop. But we won't take them.
- 2:40Speaker 4: In New South Wales, we do not want Victoria because
- 2:43Speaker 4: can you imagine, like we are so lucky that we
- 2:46Speaker 4: split from them. Can you imagine if we had to
- 2:48Speaker 4: deal with all of that nonsense today, all the debt
- 2:51Speaker 4: that we would have to take on. Putting that line
- 2:55Speaker 4: there was the best thing they ever did because it
- 2:57Speaker 4: kept all the socialists out of New South Wales. And
- 2:59Speaker 4: I'm very glad for you and all the people that
- 3:02Speaker 4: were voting for Dan Andrews.
- 3:04Speaker 7: We do not want you, Okay, you've.
- 3:06Speaker 5: Made your bed stay there lying in it. A report
- 3:10Speaker 5: in March from the IPA and it used ten KPIs
- 3:14Speaker 5: and it put all the states next to each other.
- 3:17Speaker 5: Victoria rated second last or last in seven of those tens.
- 3:24Speaker 5: So we know that it's ranked highest for tax burden,
- 3:27Speaker 5: tax debt, and energy costs, and I honestly, last time
- 3:31Speaker 5: I checked as well, it was also the highest ranked
- 3:34Speaker 5: in terms of people leaving the state and migrating to
- 3:38Speaker 5: other states. Because honestly, especially if you're a parent in
- 3:42Speaker 5: Victoria right now, looking at the tax burden, the debt
- 3:47Speaker 5: burden and the tax burden, obviously they're married up there,
- 3:50Speaker 5: wouldn't you just be like, I'm getting the hell out
- 3:52Speaker 5: of here. My kids are not paying this off. They
- 3:56Speaker 5: are not going to be under the same tax burden
- 3:58Speaker 5: that I'm struggling under right now to pay off.
- 4:01Speaker 7: All Victoria's jolly mistakes.
- 4:04Speaker 5: Like we keep saying, every state had a pandemic, every
- 4:07Speaker 5: single every single state and territory had the same pandemic.
- 4:12Speaker 7: Nobody wrapped up the.
- 4:14Speaker 5: Kind of bankruptcy that Victoria did.
- 4:18Speaker 2: It's a little rich of Jacenter Ellen to be boasting
- 4:20Speaker 2: that Victoria is better off without New South Wales and
- 4:24Speaker 2: New South Wales. People were quite happy for that separation.
- 4:27Speaker 2: You used to say, the only good thing about Victoria,
- 4:29Speaker 2: of course, was the AFL. But even now Sydney has
- 4:31Speaker 2: the best aff sating on top of the ladder.
- 4:35Speaker 6: Have him, they do at the moment.
- 4:37Speaker 5: But interestingly, and anyone who believes in the supernatural would
- 4:41Speaker 5: wonder the same thing. This reminded me strangely of something
- 4:45Speaker 5: that I saw after the twenty twenty two census, which
- 4:48Speaker 5: showed that Victoria had, in fact, forul Melbourne namely, had
- 4:53Speaker 5: in fact become the capital of Satan worship.
- 4:57Speaker 7: In the nation.
- 4:59Speaker 5: Check out this video that Vice made at the time
- 5:02Speaker 5: about this.
- 5:04Speaker 4: It's possible your neighbor might be performing Satanic rituals, or
- 5:07Speaker 4: your cousin could even be a devil worshiper.
- 5:11Speaker 5: Bidle says, godliness, exultination, righteousness makes it strong. I just
- 5:16Speaker 5: find as a churchy myself that for me personally, obviously,
- 5:23Speaker 5: other people would probably think this is wacky, but there
- 5:26Speaker 5: cannot be no correlation here, because anyone who believes in
- 5:30Speaker 5: the supernatural realm believes that the physical is a mirror
- 5:33Speaker 5: of it in some way, shape or form. And it
- 5:36Speaker 5: did get me to wondering because I had no idea
- 5:39Speaker 5: Melbourne was the Satanist capital in Melia.
- 5:41Speaker 4: Had no idea Satan was literally the premiere of Victoria
- 5:45Speaker 4: for years and they worshiped him.
- 5:48Speaker 6: Daniel Andrews is his name.
- 5:50Speaker 4: They worshiped him every single day when he came out
- 5:53Speaker 4: in his north face jacket. Telling me that Victoria is
- 5:57Speaker 4: the Satanic capital of Australia is like telling me that
- 6:00Speaker 4: it's blue in the sky.
- 6:02Speaker 7: We all know how much sense to me now?
- 6:05Speaker 8: No wonder he got re elected after terrorizing the population
- 6:08Speaker 8: for years.
- 6:09Speaker 2: When the Herald Son reported that Victoria is the Satan
- 6:12Speaker 2: capital of Australia, this line stood out to me. They
- 6:17Speaker 2: wrote to some of these satanists had been atheists, but
- 6:21Speaker 2: we're looking for something more. So I don't believe in God,
- 6:26Speaker 2: but I'm going to get the devil a going.
- 6:30Speaker 7: My god instead.
- 6:32Speaker 4: And he was pretty good at winning elections too, would
- 6:35Speaker 4: you believe it all?
- 6:36Speaker 6: Let's go over to the US.
- 6:38Speaker 4: Now. We hear all the time about misinformation and disinformation,
- 6:42Speaker 4: and you know, of course here in Australia we've got
- 6:44Speaker 4: this Misinformation Disinformation Bill coming up. You had the President's
- 6:49Speaker 4: Press Secretary kringe On Pierre, most recently trying to claim
- 6:54Speaker 4: that videos of Joe Barden were deep fakes and cheap fakes,
- 6:58Speaker 4: and that they were missing information and disinformation that were
- 7:02Speaker 4: lying to you about the real states of the president. Well,
- 7:06Speaker 4: we all saw him at the debate on Friday. I
- 7:08Speaker 4: think we can all agree they were not cheap fakes
- 7:11Speaker 4: or defakes. But this is the line now, misinformation and disinformation.
- 7:14Speaker 4: It's what politicians use when they want to discredit someone's argument,
- 7:18Speaker 4: i e. Fact that they don't like that go against
- 7:21Speaker 4: their argument. Well, funnily enough, Kamala Harris, the Vice President
- 7:26Speaker 4: of the United States, has been caught out engaging in
- 7:29Speaker 4: misinformation and disinformation herself. She tweeted this, Donald Trump would
- 7:37Speaker 4: ban abortion nationwide. President Joe Biden and I will do
- 7:42Speaker 4: everything in our power to stop him and restore women's
- 7:46Speaker 4: reproductive freedom. Let me repeat that Donald Trump would ban
- 7:51Speaker 4: abortion nation wide.
- 7:54Speaker 6: Well, isn't it good that these days.
- 7:56Speaker 4: We have things like I don't know videos and I'm
- 7:58Speaker 4: not talking about cheap or defeates that we can go
- 8:01Speaker 4: back to that prove these kind of statements wrong all
- 8:04Speaker 4: the tape.
- 8:06Speaker 9: My view is now that we have abortion where everybody
- 8:09Speaker 9: wanted it. From a legal standpoint, the stage will determine
- 8:13Speaker 9: by vote or a legislation, or perhaps both, and whatever
- 8:16Speaker 9: they decide must be the law of the land.
- 8:19Speaker 6: In this case, the law of the state. Many stages
- 8:23Speaker 6: will be different.
- 8:25Speaker 4: So that was April Donald Trump saying that the states
- 8:29Speaker 4: will make their own laws, and now Kamala Harris claims
- 8:32Speaker 4: that he will institute a national ban on abortion. It's
- 8:36Speaker 4: simply not true now, of course, one of the interesting
- 8:39Speaker 4: things about the fact that she put it on X
- 8:41Speaker 4: formally Twitter, Elon Musk's platform, is that these days, when
- 8:45Speaker 4: someone puts misinformational disinformation on X, you can actually go
- 8:50Speaker 4: on and make a complaint and they put a little
- 8:51Speaker 4: addendum at the bottom of the tweet or the post
- 8:54Speaker 4: or whatever it's called now that points out the actual truth.
- 8:57Speaker 4: And Elon Musk himself harnessed this today he said, when
- 9:01Speaker 4: will politicians, or at least the intern who runs their account,
- 9:05Speaker 4: which in most cases is probably true. If you check
- 9:07Speaker 4: Joe Biden's Twitter account, My god, some of the stuff
- 9:10Speaker 4: that's posted on there is just inane.
- 9:12Speaker 6: And learned it lying. When will they learn that lying.
- 9:15Speaker 4: On this platform does not work anymore?
- 9:20Speaker 6: I mean, it's just a bald faced lie.
- 9:23Speaker 4: On what basis would she try to claim that there
- 9:26Speaker 4: is going to be a nationwide band on abortion.
- 9:29Speaker 7: He's literally never said it, because they're shilling.
- 9:32Speaker 5: For votes, and right now they are desperate for votes,
- 9:34Speaker 5: especially after Friday's performance from the sitting president, or should
- 9:39Speaker 5: I say lack thereof, But yeah, they're desperate and they
- 9:43Speaker 5: know that nothing harnesses especially the female fury of the US.
- 9:49Speaker 5: We saw this when Rovi Wade was overturned by the
- 9:51Speaker 5: Supreme Court.
- 9:52Speaker 7: I mean, you've just.
- 9:53Speaker 5: Not seen scenes like that for a very long time.
- 9:57Speaker 5: This gets people on both sides, whether you're or.
- 10:00Speaker 7: Anti, absolutely rabid.
- 10:03Speaker 5: And she is trying, by lying to make women believe
- 10:07Speaker 5: that nationwide, there's just going to be a complete kibosh
- 10:11Speaker 5: on abortions. It is a lie, but she's doing it
- 10:15Speaker 5: in order, I guess, appealing to the lowest common denominator
- 10:19Speaker 5: who doesn't know well enough the community. Note that X
- 10:23Speaker 5: then slapped on her tweet literally said, I quote President
- 10:28Speaker 5: Trump has repeatedly said he will not sign a national
- 10:31Speaker 5: abortion band, and had five links attached so that if
- 10:35Speaker 5: people were questioning the community, note, they could click on
- 10:38Speaker 5: any number of those five links and watch him say
- 10:41Speaker 5: it like we just played for folks watching back home.
- 10:44Speaker 7: So it was completely blown out of the water the
- 10:48Speaker 7: minute she posted it.
- 10:50Speaker 5: But again, if you're appealing to the lowest common denominator,
- 10:54Speaker 5: then you're gonna get those ropeable people that you're after.
- 10:58Speaker 5: But of course that didn't even stop her from then
- 11:00Speaker 5: releasing this completely cringe video once again trying to appeal
- 11:06Speaker 5: to women on the basis of we're protecting your reproduction rights.
- 11:10Speaker 7: Trump's going to take them away.
- 11:14Speaker 10: So what's on your mind.
- 11:16Speaker 11: Oh, Madam VP Harris, I'm worried about the election. Women's
- 11:21Speaker 11: reproductive rights are on the line, our Supreme Court is
- 11:24Speaker 11: on the line. Our basic freedoms are being tested.
- 11:27Speaker 6: Madam VP.
- 11:28Speaker 11: I know you've been sure having cross country.
- 11:31Speaker 7: What are you hearing?
- 11:32Speaker 10: Yeah, girl, I'm out here in these streets, and let
- 11:34Speaker 10: me tell you you're right, Taraji. There is so much
- 11:37Speaker 10: at stake in this moment. The majority of us believe
- 11:40Speaker 10: in freedom and equality. But these extremists, as they say, they're.
- 11:46Speaker 6: Not like us. The they not.
- 11:48Speaker 10: There's a full on attack on our fundamental freedoms.
- 11:52Speaker 5: Oh, a full on attack on our fundamental freedoms.
- 11:56Speaker 7: Don't you just love it?
- 11:57Speaker 5: The more they refer to anyone who believes different lead
- 12:00Speaker 5: to them as extremists, I'm like, this is wearing so
- 12:03Speaker 5: thin so fast.
- 12:05Speaker 7: Nobody believes you anymore.
- 12:06Speaker 2: Yeah, girl, I've been out on these streets and imagine
- 12:10Speaker 2: running an administration so bad, failing so epically that your
- 12:15Speaker 2: your greatest hope for reelection is to boast it you'll
- 12:17Speaker 2: be more effective in killing the unborn than your opponents.
- 12:20Speaker 6: Well.
- 12:21Speaker 2: Back in March, Jane Marla Harris proudly announced a historic
- 12:25Speaker 2: tour of abortion clinics throughout America, boasting that she was
- 12:28Speaker 2: the first sitting president or vice president to actually visit
- 12:32Speaker 2: an abortion clinic. And this was her big pitch to voters.
- 12:36Speaker 2: There's almost a million unborn children aborted every year in
- 12:40Speaker 2: the United States, and the best that the Biden administration
- 12:44Speaker 2: can do coming up to this election is say we'll
- 12:46Speaker 2: make sure that continues. That's how epically bad they are.
- 12:51Speaker 3: It's just a disgrace.
- 12:52Speaker 7: And Trump's more the one for freedom, being.
- 12:54Speaker 5: Like, hey, I'm actually leaving it up to the states
- 12:57Speaker 5: state by state basis, which also means that if someone
- 13:00Speaker 5: wants to access.
- 13:01Speaker 7: The ability to kill their baby, like you very accurately say, Mac,
- 13:06Speaker 7: just across the state border. There's a lot of states
- 13:08Speaker 7: to choose from.
- 13:09Speaker 5: You can just take yourself where it's fine and they'll
- 13:13Speaker 5: book you right in so they're the ones who are
- 13:16Speaker 5: basically talking about a nationwide it's a free for all,
- 13:20Speaker 5: whereas he's like, hey, let's let's let the more conservative
- 13:23Speaker 5: states states say nay, make up their own rules with
- 13:27Speaker 5: regard to this, with the more liberal states being.
- 13:31Speaker 7: Like, hey, it's a free for all.
- 13:32Speaker 5: As there are states in the US that say right
- 13:35Speaker 5: up until the day of birth will book you in.
- 13:39Speaker 5: But let's not forget what President Joe Biden said on
- 13:44Speaker 5: the night of that fatefully terrible debate.
- 13:47Speaker 7: Here was him in defense of abortion.
- 13:52Speaker 12: The vast majority of consuls and scholars support it, row
- 13:55Speaker 12: when it was decided support it role, and that was
- 13:58Speaker 12: that's this idea that they're all against it.
- 14:00Speaker 6: It's just ridiculous.
- 14:02Speaker 12: And this is a guy who says the state should
- 14:04Speaker 12: be able to have it. We're in a state where in
- 14:06Speaker 12: six weeks you don't even know whether you're pregnate or not,
- 14:09Speaker 12: but you cannot see a doctor, have your and have
- 14:12Speaker 12: him decide on what your circumstances are when you need help.
- 14:15Speaker 6: But here's the deal.
- 14:17Speaker 12: There's a lot of young women to be raped by
- 14:19Speaker 12: their by their in laws, by their by their spouses,
- 14:23Speaker 12: brothers and sisters, by it's just ridiculous, and they can
- 14:27Speaker 12: do nothing about it, and they try to rest them
- 14:29Speaker 12: on the cross state line.
- 14:32Speaker 5: People are being raped by their brothers, insisters.
- 14:35Speaker 7: That that is your argument.
- 14:38Speaker 4: I didn't know that two women could have a child.
- 14:41Speaker 4: I didn't know.
- 14:42Speaker 7: I didn't think that was that was very problematic.
- 14:45Speaker 5: But clearly, according to President Biden, that is possible, and
- 14:50Speaker 5: that is why he is standing up for reproductive rights
- 14:55Speaker 5: staying in the US. Now there has been a complete
- 14:58Speaker 5: melt down on behalf of the damn. The US Supreme
- 15:01Speaker 5: Court has just ruled that presidents and ex presidents cannot
- 15:06Speaker 5: be prosecuted for decisions that they made, things that they
- 15:09Speaker 5: did as president or obviously ex president in Trump's case,
- 15:15Speaker 5: if those decisions were part of their core duties as president.
- 15:20Speaker 5: Well to the meltdown, the vote on the Supreme Court
- 15:24Speaker 5: went six ' three, which is very predictable with the
- 15:26Speaker 5: Conservatives holding a six strong majority in the Supreme Court.
- 15:32Speaker 7: And of course this complicates things.
- 15:35Speaker 5: Drastically for the Dems because they've got this trial coming
- 15:39Speaker 5: up in which they want to hold Trump to account
- 15:43Speaker 5: for trying to overturn the twenty twenty election. Of course,
- 15:47Speaker 5: he didn't do that. But they're not going to roll
- 15:50Speaker 5: those tapes, and I just think this is hilarious. So
- 15:54Speaker 5: that trial has already been pushed back because they're like,
- 15:56Speaker 5: this is a massive complication that we did not see,
- 16:00Speaker 5: and they're trying to now ascertain whether the decisions that
- 16:04Speaker 5: he made around that time and the dying days of
- 16:07Speaker 5: his presidency were in fact a core part.
- 16:11Speaker 7: Of well the president's job at the time.
- 16:14Speaker 5: If that falls over, because the Supreme Court has now
- 16:18Speaker 5: referred that part to a district court. If that falls over,
- 16:22Speaker 5: I guess they won't have a case at all.
- 16:24Speaker 4: And that's why it's important because this is the January
- 16:27Speaker 4: sixth case is the one that could have led to
- 16:30Speaker 4: him being imprisoned before November, when the presidential election will
- 16:33Speaker 4: be held. So it severely delays that and possibly scapers it,
- 16:37Speaker 4: which was the whole point of running this case. But
- 16:40Speaker 4: the unhinging of it today was incredible. So you had
- 16:44Speaker 4: Joe Barden come out with a spray tan on seemingly
- 16:48Speaker 4: after his team complained that he looked pale on Friday Thursday,
- 16:54Speaker 4: US time because the CNN makeup artists had done him
- 16:58Speaker 4: up to pale or something.
- 16:59Speaker 6: That's why he so sickly.
- 17:01Speaker 4: So they've now seen him off to go and have
- 17:02Speaker 4: a spray tand so he can look like Donald Trump.
- 17:05Speaker 4: So you can pick between orange man good and orange
- 17:08Speaker 4: man bad.
- 17:08Speaker 6: Now I suppose it seems to be what they're going for.
- 17:11Speaker 4: I was just sort of imagining Jill there this morning
- 17:13Speaker 4: with like the spray bottle China, like.
- 17:15Speaker 6: We need to make you look alive, Joe.
- 17:18Speaker 4: So Joe comes out and says his piece in which
- 17:21Speaker 4: he essentially rebukes the Supreme Court, which is his historic
- 17:26Speaker 4: moment for a president to come out and say that
- 17:30Speaker 4: the Supreme Court is wrong and that you now need
- 17:33Speaker 4: to exercise your voice against the Supreme Court by voting
- 17:37Speaker 4: for me.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Especially when he's claiming that Trump is a threat to demoscrap.
- 17:42Speaker 4: And he's saying the Court is wrong and you have
- 17:44Speaker 4: to vote for me to try and rebuke the Court.
- 17:47Speaker 4: Then you had these like absolutely unfathomable ideas being put
- 17:52Speaker 4: forward that it would mean that Trump or or any
- 17:55Speaker 4: other sitting president would be able to legitimately have their
- 17:59Speaker 4: politic opponents executed and that they would be immune from
- 18:03Speaker 4: prosecution's last time a military coup like atlaive Checks, having
- 18:09Speaker 4: someone executed is not part of your duties as president,
- 18:13Speaker 4: and how if you can argue that it is I'm
- 18:15Speaker 4: here for the court case.
- 18:16Speaker 2: I can't if they're an Iranian terrorist or a Syrian terrist.
- 18:19Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, well okay, but that's a bit different. That's
- 18:22Speaker 4: a military operation. It's not like, you know, Joe Biden's
- 18:25Speaker 4: going to rock down to the CIA and say, look,
- 18:27Speaker 4: can you just go and put a bullet in Donald
- 18:29Speaker 4: Trump's head for me?
- 18:30Speaker 6: Please? It's just crazy town stuff.
- 18:34Speaker 4: But this is where they are because after that debate,
- 18:37Speaker 4: they know.
- 18:38Speaker 6: That if Biden is the man in November.
- 18:41Speaker 4: They are stuffed, and so they're grabbing onto literally anything
- 18:45Speaker 4: they can right now, even if it is patently absurd.
- 18:49Speaker 2: Well on that point, have a listened to Democrat Representative
- 18:53Speaker 2: Zoe Lovgren. She makes exactly the ridiculous point that Calorb
- 18:56Speaker 2: just warned of.
- 18:58Speaker 13: I guess you know, theoretically President Biden, acting within the
- 19:04Speaker 13: scope of his official duties, could dispatch the military to
- 19:08Speaker 13: take out the conservative justices on the court and he'd be.
- 19:12Speaker 6: A mere.
- 19:14Speaker 2: Could you imagine if a Republican said that, they would.
- 19:17Speaker 6: Be done for incitement? Honest?
- 19:19Speaker 2: And I mean she before she was a Democrat, like
- 19:22Speaker 2: most politicians. She was a lawyer, but I don't know
- 19:25Speaker 2: how anyone would have paid that lady to represent them
- 19:28Speaker 2: in the court of law if that's the kind of
- 19:30Speaker 2: logic that she uses to make an argument.
- 19:32Speaker 5: But again it speaks to the fearmongering.
- 19:35Speaker 4: Right.
- 19:36Speaker 5: So the last story is Kamala Harris being like, there's
- 19:38Speaker 5: going to be a massive nationwide pi bosh, You're not
- 19:42Speaker 5: going to be able to chill your babies anymore. Now
- 19:46Speaker 5: they're trumpeting the fact that Trump's just going to be
- 19:49Speaker 5: able to kill people indiscriminately.
- 19:51Speaker 7: That's what this US Supreme Court ruled.
- 19:54Speaker 5: But can you imagine if presidents and ex presidents weren't
- 19:59Speaker 5: like immune to institution for some of the decisions that
- 20:01Speaker 5: they've made, the wars their countries have participated in. Now
- 20:05Speaker 5: that people know a lot more about them, the jails
- 20:09Speaker 5: would be full of.
- 20:11Speaker 2: It's foolish for Biden to be upset about this. This
- 20:13Speaker 2: is great news for him exactly because it now pretty
- 20:16Speaker 2: much protects him from what they're warning of that Trump
- 20:19Speaker 2: is going to come into office and he's going to
- 20:20Speaker 2: send everybody to jail.
- 20:22Speaker 5: He doesn't protect Biden from his family's dodgy business dealings.
- 20:27Speaker 7: That the Congress and others are still busy digging through.
- 20:31Speaker 7: We have not seen the end of that story.
- 20:33Speaker 5: Yet, because of course, that had nothing to do with
- 20:36Speaker 5: his business as a president or at the time vice president.
- 20:40Speaker 5: That had everything to do with something that.
- 20:43Speaker 7: Was supposed to be and remain off the book.
- 20:46Speaker 6: Now.
- 20:46Speaker 2: I can see you moving your notes because you want
- 20:48Speaker 2: to move on to the next topic. But we do
- 20:50Speaker 2: have a clip that I'll get Liz to introduce because
- 20:52Speaker 2: I'm way too old to know these rappers, but apparently
- 20:55Speaker 2: they're very what I While.
- 20:58Speaker 8: The Democrats are having this melt down trying to fear
- 21:01Speaker 8: amonger amongst the public desperately, this absolute banger shot to
- 21:06Speaker 8: number three on.
- 21:07Speaker 7: The chart four days of being released. Check it out.
- 21:14Speaker 6: You know who we vote?
- 21:15Speaker 4: Vote?
- 21:16Speaker 6: We voted Donald Trump Baby America me saving America, Saving
- 21:24Speaker 6: voted Trump Trump Baby.
- 21:28Speaker 5: That's Forgiato Blow and Supermodel and the rose in the streets.
- 21:34Speaker 7: I don't know, I maybe.
- 21:35Speaker 8: Just butchered it, but that's what it looks.
- 21:37Speaker 4: Like on paper.
- 21:40Speaker 2: Tomorrow night, can we do either Billy Joel or Elton
- 21:43Speaker 2: Johnathan program back of.
- 21:45Speaker 8: Singing Trump Trump Baby America needs Saving Baby top of
- 21:49Speaker 8: the podcast again.
- 21:50Speaker 4: I'll admit it to music, but it cannot go so
- 21:53Speaker 4: far as to call that a baker.
- 21:55Speaker 7: Okay, okay.
- 21:56Speaker 5: In my defense, you haven't listened to the whole The
- 22:00Speaker 5: verses get even better.
- 22:02Speaker 7: Oh it's rap, it's wrap.
- 22:05Speaker 5: Oh come on, Caleb, nobody expects you to have We
- 22:08Speaker 5: appreciate some Can we have a jazz tune about about
- 22:12Speaker 5: how good Trump is?
- 22:13Speaker 4: Oh?
- 22:14Speaker 7: Yeah, that would be so Trumpian.
- 22:15Speaker 2: All right, I got this program back on track.
- 22:18Speaker 4: Five.
- 22:18Speaker 2: Six years after the death of Jeffrey Epstein, questions continue
- 22:23Speaker 2: to be asked. Yesterday, transcripts from the grand jury investigation
- 22:28Speaker 2: back in two thousand and.
- 22:29Speaker 6: Eight were released.
- 22:30Speaker 2: There I remember, Jeffrey Epstein was offered a plea deal
- 22:34Speaker 2: where he got to plead to trafficking minus for the
- 22:38Speaker 2: purpose of prostitution and served only about eighteen months in prison.
- 22:43Speaker 2: Then he was released to continue trafficking young girls for
- 22:46Speaker 2: another ten years before he was finally.
- 22:49Speaker 3: Arrested and jailed.
- 22:50Speaker 2: It's come to light that the prosecutors who offered Epstein
- 22:53Speaker 2: this plea deal knew very well that he'd been raping
- 22:57Speaker 2: young girls as young as fourteen, and that he had
- 23:00Speaker 2: been paying teenage girls to get their friends to come
- 23:04Speaker 2: to his house so they could give him naked massages
- 23:07Speaker 2: and so he could engage in sexual activities with them.
- 23:11Speaker 2: The Florida Circuit Judge Lewis Delgado said that the transcripts
- 23:17Speaker 2: being released would absolutely outrage people. Details in the record,
- 23:21Speaker 2: he said, will be outrageous to decent people. The testimony
- 23:25Speaker 2: taken by the grand jury concerns activity ranging from grossly
- 23:28Speaker 2: unacceptable to rape. All of the conduct at issue is
- 23:32Speaker 2: sexually deviant, disgusting, and criminal. And as I said, with
- 23:38Speaker 2: all of that being known to prosecutors, they offered him
- 23:40Speaker 2: a sweetheart deal. He spent eighteen months in jail and
- 23:44Speaker 2: then spent the next ten years back in the community,
- 23:47Speaker 2: continuing with his sexual trafficking of young girls.
- 23:51Speaker 3: So of course it begs the question, when they knew
- 23:53Speaker 3: all that, why on earth did he get such a
- 23:56Speaker 3: sweet sweet rit.
- 23:58Speaker 6: Let me think.
- 24:00Speaker 4: I mean, this Jeffrey Epstein character was linked to a
- 24:03Speaker 4: lot of very important, powerful people in America. And of
- 24:08Speaker 4: course what this plea deal meant was that he avoided
- 24:12Speaker 4: federal charges. He only had to deal with state charges
- 24:15Speaker 4: because originally they were going him for the trafficking and rape.
- 24:19Speaker 6: And then in the end, I think.
- 24:20Speaker 4: It was procuring a childer the age of sixteen for
- 24:23Speaker 4: under eighteen, sorry for prostitution, which was far more lenient.
- 24:29Speaker 6: But you know, you go into the logs of who
- 24:32Speaker 6: has flown to his island or his former ireland.
- 24:36Speaker 4: I suppose because he's dead now, by the way, he
- 24:39Speaker 4: didn't kill himself. The Clinton's lots and lots of very
- 24:44Speaker 4: important people, politicians, entertainers.
- 24:48Speaker 6: The charity workers, everyone is on there right.
- 24:52Speaker 4: So if you want to talk about a man who
- 24:54Speaker 4: is well connected or was well connected in America, you'd
- 24:57Speaker 4: be hard pressed to find better than Jeffrey Epps.
- 25:00Speaker 6: And Jeffrey was not a dumb guy.
- 25:02Speaker 4: That's why he had all those contacts and why he
- 25:06Speaker 4: put people in compromising positions so that if the day
- 25:09Speaker 4: ever came that he needed to ring in a favor,
- 25:12Speaker 4: he was able to do it.
- 25:14Speaker 6: And you have to ask the question, is that what
- 25:16Speaker 6: he did for me?
- 25:17Speaker 5: This gives further merit to the long running speculation that
- 25:22Speaker 5: he was something of a CIA asset himself. He met
- 25:26Speaker 5: with the now director of the CIA several times. We
- 25:29Speaker 5: know that from Epstein's own personal diaries, and it was
- 25:34Speaker 5: Julian Assan who once sagely noted when Gilay Maxwell was
- 25:39Speaker 5: sentenced and everyone was like, oh, finally we've got someone
- 25:42Speaker 5: convicted over this terrible child sex trafficking ring and Epstein
- 25:47Speaker 5: Island and all the rest of Epstein's dead.
- 25:49Speaker 7: But at least we got her.
- 25:51Speaker 5: And everyone was asking, where the heck is the client list?
- 25:56Speaker 5: How has this woman been convicted of a crime for
- 26:00Speaker 5: which there seemingly was no.
- 26:02Speaker 8: Customers whatsoever, Even though the flight.
- 26:05Speaker 5: Logs, even to Epstein Island were known, there were names
- 26:10Speaker 5: on that people were going, people were making use of
- 26:13Speaker 5: his services.
- 26:15Speaker 7: I loved Julian.
- 26:15Speaker 5: Osange's quote because he said the reason why the FBI
- 26:20Speaker 5: will not and will never release Epstein's client list was
- 26:25Speaker 5: because their blackmail would then be useless. And they built
- 26:29Speaker 5: up this dossier of blackmail, and these incredibly powerful people
- 26:34Speaker 5: like you say, these are the kinds of people who
- 26:36Speaker 5: run the world. They were never going to release it
- 26:39Speaker 5: because all of a sudden, everything that they had on
- 26:43Speaker 5: these evil elites would be utterly useless. We wouldn't be
- 26:47Speaker 5: able to blackmail you with anything anymore.
- 26:49Speaker 7: So it's a lot of people will call.
- 26:52Speaker 5: That wild theory, but anyone who wants to read this
- 26:56Speaker 5: has been covered by mainstream media for a very long time, Dear,
- 27:00Speaker 5: that Epstein was in fact some sort of plan, and
- 27:04Speaker 5: that would explain why, even with these heinous crimes on
- 27:07Speaker 5: his record, he barely got a slap on the wrist
- 27:10Speaker 5: because they needed him to stay in the game, keep
- 27:13Speaker 5: doing what you're doing, so we can keep building this
- 27:16Speaker 5: DOSSI eight.
- 27:17Speaker 4: And he maintained a lot of these contacts well after
- 27:20Speaker 4: he was convicted and sent to jail.
- 27:22Speaker 7: Indeed, tho it eight.
- 27:24Speaker 6: I mean, you know, you.
- 27:24Speaker 4: Can't forget the images of Prince Andrew walking around with
- 27:28Speaker 4: him in Central Park.
- 27:30Speaker 6: Well after that, these people remained frings with him, right indeed, And.
- 27:33Speaker 4: You would think in your right mind that you wouldn't
- 27:37Speaker 4: hang around with a guy who is a convicted child
- 27:40Speaker 4: sex offender, right, But they continued to do it. And
- 27:44Speaker 4: you've got to ask the question again, what did he
- 27:46Speaker 4: have on these people that would cause them to not
- 27:49Speaker 4: just drop him like a ton of bricks and continue
- 27:52Speaker 4: hanging out with them.
- 27:54Speaker 6: It's it's all very curious.
- 27:56Speaker 7: It would also explain his suss death. As you just said, Epstein.
- 28:00Speaker 6: Just turned up himself in prison.
- 28:01Speaker 5: Yeah, apparently no one was looking at the time, and
- 28:05Speaker 5: he had access to what he needed.
- 28:07Speaker 7: In order to take his own life.
- 28:09Speaker 5: And I don't know that sounds like what happens to
- 28:12Speaker 5: most assets when they stopped being an asset.
- 28:14Speaker 2: He had massive video surveillance also in his house and
- 28:18Speaker 2: on the island and those.
- 28:19Speaker 7: And in the cell, but apparently.
- 28:21Speaker 2: Those exist any longer.
- 28:26Speaker 8: Incredible how that works, dear question.
- 28:29Speaker 2: Do you reckon we will ever get a client list
- 28:31Speaker 2: or any information about it? Or do you think this
- 28:33Speaker 2: will be something we're talking about like the death of JFK.
- 28:35Speaker 7: Maybe in thirty years time, maister.
- 28:38Speaker 5: Maybe in thirty years time, after everyone's dead and there's
- 28:40Speaker 5: absolutely no one left to prosecute.
- 28:43Speaker 7: Much like the.
- 28:44Speaker 5: Incredible book that I've referred to several times now, a
- 28:46Speaker 5: book by Tom O'Neil called Chaos, and he went into
- 28:50Speaker 5: the CIA.
- 28:51Speaker 7: Chaos. He is a CIA operation name.
- 28:54Speaker 5: He went into what he calls the secret history of
- 28:57Speaker 5: the CIA. But he got to find out what he
- 29:01Speaker 5: found out.
- 29:01Speaker 7: Because it was thirty years in the past and.
- 29:04Speaker 5: So people were a lot more forthcoming with records. He
- 29:07Speaker 5: also got access to records which others then denied that
- 29:10Speaker 5: they'd given him access to when everyone had been like
- 29:12Speaker 5: you should never have been amongst those files. He was
- 29:16Speaker 5: simply asked to write an article, and twenty years later
- 29:19Speaker 5: the story had consumed his life. It is an incredible book,
- 29:23Speaker 5: but yeah, I think maybe thirty years from now, maybe
- 29:26Speaker 5: even longer, when well, it doesn't really matter anymore, does it.
- 29:30Speaker 7: Everyone's dead. The truth comes out inevitably and.
- 29:33Speaker 6: It's always too late. Unfortunately, that's the saddest part of
- 29:36Speaker 6: it all.
- 29:36Speaker 4: Let's go to Europe now, where Victor ubarn the Hungarian
- 29:41Speaker 4: Prime Minister, has been made the new President of the
- 29:44Speaker 4: European Union.
- 29:46Speaker 6: And he's not going in there to play EU games.
- 29:50Speaker 6: He's going in there to clean the joint up. Now,
- 29:54Speaker 6: in the lead.
- 29:54Speaker 4: Up to the EU elections, which of course we had
- 29:57Speaker 4: last month, he put on X National, conservative, sovereigntist and
- 30:02Speaker 4: Christian forces are on the rise across Europe. Don't represent
- 30:07Speaker 4: progressive ideas, we represent the people. We are the worst
- 30:11Speaker 4: nightmare of the Brussels bureaucrats. We will win the European
- 30:15Speaker 4: elections this June, and they did and will occupy Brussels.
- 30:19Speaker 4: Hashtag make Europe great again. Well, he's on his way
- 30:24Speaker 4: in there. He's about to make Europe great again. This
- 30:28Speaker 4: is how he's announced it just screams badass, doesn't it,
- 30:50Speaker 4: And it's good.
- 30:51Speaker 6: We need someone like this at the EU to shake
- 30:54Speaker 6: things up a bit.
- 30:55Speaker 4: I just hope that over the next few years that
- 30:57Speaker 4: joint gets the absolute living hell shaken out of it,
- 31:01Speaker 4: because of course Ferajs tried to do that for a
- 31:03Speaker 4: long time when he was there, but he was sort
- 31:06Speaker 4: of like a lone voice on the back benches, you know,
- 31:09Speaker 4: screaming against the rest of them. But now that you've
- 31:12Speaker 4: had this great right wing push into the EU, maybe
- 31:15Speaker 4: we'll actually start to see some change, especially with a
- 31:18Speaker 4: bloke like allbarn help.
- 31:20Speaker 2: So the presidency of the Council of Ministers in the EU,
- 31:22Speaker 2: it's on a six month roditating thing, right, But the
- 31:26Speaker 2: evidence that he is a good conservative leader is seen
- 31:30Speaker 2: in the fact that so many were trying to stop
- 31:33Speaker 2: Hungry from having their turn and finding all manner.
- 31:36Speaker 3: Of excuses not to have in there. And I love
- 31:37Speaker 3: the way he's.
- 31:38Speaker 2: Not mega, he's mega.
- 31:42Speaker 8: And everyone's like, look, he's like Trump, he's a populist,
- 31:46Speaker 8: and all the people said kind ashamed of it.
- 31:49Speaker 5: So if you think you're insulting him by pointing it out,
- 31:53Speaker 5: he's helping you.
- 31:54Speaker 2: But I mean what's a populist, someone who believes in
- 31:56Speaker 2: national borders, someone who believes in preserving the Christian heritage
- 32:00Speaker 2: of Europe. And if you believe in those two things,
- 32:02Speaker 2: or you're a danger to it says a lot about
- 32:04Speaker 2: Brussels when those things are seen as somehow an impediment.
- 32:09Speaker 2: Australia has announced that for the first time since the
- 32:11Speaker 2: nineteen nineties, we've had a decrease in life expectancy. Now
- 32:16Speaker 2: it's only by zero point one years, but as I said,
- 32:21Speaker 2: for the first time in about thirty years, life expectancy
- 32:24Speaker 2: in this country has decreased. That's according to the Australian
- 32:26Speaker 2: Institute of Health and Welfare, who listed the top five
- 32:30Speaker 2: causes of death in twenty twenty two as coronary heart disease, dementia, COVID,
- 32:37Speaker 2: nineteen cerebra vascular disease and lung cancer. It should be
- 32:43Speaker 2: said we still have the fourth highest life expectancy at
- 32:46Speaker 2: birth in the world, after only Japan, Korea and Switzerland,
- 32:50Speaker 2: but life expectancy did go down for the first time
- 32:53Speaker 2: in many years. They attribute that to COVID, saying that
- 32:57Speaker 2: half the excess deaths in twenty twenty two would because
- 33:00Speaker 2: of COVID nineteen.
- 33:01Speaker 4: Yeah, indeed, and look, I mean you know that point
- 33:04Speaker 4: one of a year. Let's be frank, I mean that's
- 33:05Speaker 4: time when I could be drinking red wine. I want
- 33:07Speaker 4: that point one of a year. They did miss on
- 33:10Speaker 4: the top five list. Here though, that premiers and chief
- 33:14Speaker 4: Health officers should have been there because watching their presses
- 33:19Speaker 4: every day for two bloody years saptis of the will
- 33:22Speaker 4: to live.
- 33:23Speaker 6: And that was why we all cut it.
- 33:25Speaker 4: But all I can say is that the inquiry that
- 33:29Speaker 4: has now been mooted in terms of the causes of
- 33:33Speaker 4: the excess death rate which has shot up in Australia
- 33:35Speaker 4: and across the world, cannot come soon.
- 33:38Speaker 2: They've had enough right that the Senate have heard that evidence.
- 33:42Speaker 2: They allocated one day to it.
- 33:44Speaker 6: That's why I'm sorry. I didn't even know what had happened.
- 33:48Speaker 2: And it's a great point because most of the country
- 33:50Speaker 2: doesn't know it happened. Senator Ralph Berbett pushed. I think
- 33:52Speaker 2: it was on his fourth time he finally convinced the
- 33:55Speaker 2: Senate to have this inquiry. The Senate voted thirty one
- 33:58Speaker 2: to thirty in favor of inquiring to excess deaths. They
- 34:02Speaker 2: allowed only about four weeks for submissions, which wasn't anywhere
- 34:06Speaker 2: near enough, and devoted one day to trying to find
- 34:10Speaker 2: out why are more Australians dying than should be.
- 34:13Speaker 5: Well, I understand that report's going to be handed down
- 34:16Speaker 5: in August, and I hope that everyone tunes in for
- 34:19Speaker 5: it because I'm fascinated to here.
- 34:22Speaker 7: I mean, when we have.
- 34:22Speaker 5: An eighteen percent excess death rate, that's where it's at now.
- 34:26Speaker 5: It's only been on the climb since it was brought
- 34:29Speaker 5: to our attention by the Actuaries Society months ago. Then
- 34:33Speaker 5: it was more like thirteen percent. I believe, if memory serves,
- 34:37Speaker 5: it's only been climbing. This is something that we desperately
- 34:41Speaker 5: need an answer to.
- 34:42Speaker 7: We haven't had an excess.
- 34:44Speaker 5: Death rate like this since World War II, and that
- 34:47Speaker 5: certainly wasn't a mystery as to how we'd lost lives.
- 34:50Speaker 5: So finally the Senate has very begrudgingly agreed to look
- 34:54Speaker 5: into this and we're going to get that report handed
- 34:57Speaker 5: down in August.
- 34:57Speaker 7: I know albe all e.
- 34:59Speaker 5: Is because that was my I first thought when I
- 35:00Speaker 5: read this as well, in terms of life expectancy in Australia,
- 35:04Speaker 5: the age dropping, I instantly went to excess mortality and
- 35:08Speaker 5: just thought, well, naturally that's going to bump it down,
- 35:11Speaker 5: isn't it.
- 35:11Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 35:12Speaker 4: Can I just say, though, so that they're saying that
- 35:14Speaker 4: COVID is the third biggest killer or was the third
- 35:17Speaker 4: biggest killer in the country, given that the rate of
- 35:23Speaker 4: life expectancy or the life expectancy is only reduced by
- 35:26Speaker 4: point one of a year, would that not prove what
- 35:29Speaker 4: we were all saying from the beginning that COVID was
- 35:32Speaker 4: really only a danger to.
- 35:33Speaker 6: You if you were an old person.
- 35:35Speaker 4: Right, because you would expect to see chromerbid it is, Yeah,
- 35:39Speaker 4: because you would expect to see if it was killing
- 35:41Speaker 4: young people on mass that you'd have a much starker
- 35:44Speaker 4: decrease in the life expectancy, right, But that hasn't happened.
- 35:48Speaker 4: So does that not prove that COVID for most people
- 35:52Speaker 4: was reasonably fun.
- 35:53Speaker 2: But won't the counter argument be No, it would have
- 35:56Speaker 2: been shocking except for the vaccine lockdown that set. So
- 36:00Speaker 2: that would be the counter. Whether we agree with that
- 36:03Speaker 2: or not, but that'd be the counter. We're going to
- 36:04Speaker 2: go to a break. When we come back, we'll look
- 36:06Speaker 2: at what the papers are saying, including a massive exclusive
- 36:09Speaker 2: on the front page of Tomorrow's Australian about the death
- 36:12Speaker 2: of Cardinal George Pell.
- 36:13Speaker 3: That's coming up in a month.
- 36:20Speaker 2: Welcome back, well, Liz, there's an exclusive on the front
- 36:23Speaker 2: page of Tomorrow's Australian that is particularly fascinating.
- 36:26Speaker 5: Indeed, and I'm so glad somebody's onto this because I
- 36:30Speaker 5: can't be the only person who when Cardinal Pell suddenly
- 36:34Speaker 5: died at the age of eighty one after undergoing a
- 36:37Speaker 5: hip operation in Rome, well it just didn't quite make
- 36:42Speaker 5: much sense to me. But it turns out his mate
- 36:45Speaker 5: is on the case. The front splash reads Pell's death
- 36:49Speaker 5: shrouded in mystery. Former Vatican auditor vows to get to
- 36:53Speaker 5: the truth. The Vatican's first Auditor General, Liberal Maloney, has
- 36:58Speaker 5: described the death of cut Donald Pell as shrouded in
- 37:02Speaker 5: mystery and revealed he made a heartfelt vow to get
- 37:05Speaker 5: to the truth for his colleague while paying final respects
- 37:08Speaker 5: at his.
- 37:08Speaker 7: Coffin in Rome.
- 37:09Speaker 5: Malorney, a foremer partner with multinational accounting giant Deloitte, is
- 37:14Speaker 5: the only man left alive of the high powered trio
- 37:18Speaker 5: led by Pell, who launched Pope Francis's reforms of the
- 37:22Speaker 5: Holy Sees corrupt sclerotic financial systems. The article goes on
- 37:27Speaker 5: to relay the most remarkable story about how these three
- 37:31Speaker 5: men were going through the Vatican's' finances with a fine toothcomb,
- 37:35Speaker 5: finding plenty of things that weren't so great. They were
- 37:39Speaker 5: then unceremoniously fired. The two remaining and their officers were
- 37:46Speaker 5: broken into by Vatican police. They confiscated electronic equipment, forced
- 37:52Speaker 5: open a safe with axes, crowbars, sledgehammers, chisels, and power drills.
- 37:57Speaker 5: It reads like something out of a true true crime novel.
- 38:02Speaker 5: But this guy's story is truly extraordinary.
- 38:05Speaker 7: And can I just say.
- 38:06Speaker 5: Power to his arm because I thought that that needed
- 38:10Speaker 5: looking into as well, given the timing of his passing
- 38:15Speaker 5: and that we were told it was a cardiac arrest
- 38:18Speaker 5: after a hip operation.
- 38:19Speaker 2: Well, the article goes on to say that Cardinal Pearl
- 38:22Speaker 2: was warned, don't have the hip operation in Rome, come
- 38:25Speaker 2: back to Australia.
- 38:26Speaker 3: For the operation.
- 38:27Speaker 2: The article also says that his casket was closed at
- 38:31Speaker 2: the funeral, which everyone thought was very unusual that it
- 38:34Speaker 2: would be closed, and the autopsy wasn't done properly either.
- 38:38Speaker 2: So there's a lot in this piece and I dare
- 38:40Speaker 2: say it's not the last word we'll hear on this.
- 38:43Speaker 4: No, Well, I mean he made a lot of enemies
- 38:45Speaker 4: in the Vatican because he was trying to clean the
- 38:47Speaker 4: joint and in Victoria, which is.
- 38:49Speaker 5: Another reason why they tried to take him out with
- 38:51Speaker 5: these sexual action.
- 38:53Speaker 4: And this you'll remember allegations of people at the Vatican
- 38:57Speaker 4: allegedly conspiring with the vict Torrian police to trump stuff
- 39:03Speaker 4: up to try and get him because they were that
- 39:05Speaker 4: worried about what he was doing and what he was uncovering.
- 39:08Speaker 4: You'd be stupid not to be asking questions about the
- 39:10Speaker 4: circumstances of his death.
- 39:12Speaker 2: Let's go to the front page of Tomorrow's Daily Telegraph.
- 39:15Speaker 2: The main story there relates to the Sydney Uni stabbing
- 39:18Speaker 2: teen influenced.
- 39:19Speaker 3: By salad bar of ideologies.
- 39:22Speaker 2: The headline says from Tate that's Andrew Tate to terror.
- 39:26Speaker 2: A fourteen year old boy accused of stabbing a student
- 39:29Speaker 2: in the neck at the University of Sydney yesterday was
- 39:32Speaker 2: allegedly influenced by a salid bar of ideologies and is
- 39:35Speaker 2: a keen follower of controversial streamer Andrew Tait. The teen
- 39:40Speaker 2: had been enrolled in a deradicalization program.
- 39:44Speaker 3: So there's a little bit to unpack there.
- 39:46Speaker 2: This fourteen year old was charged last year after an
- 39:51Speaker 2: alleged plan to stage a quote christ Church terror like
- 39:55Speaker 2: attack on a Sydney school. Those charges were dropped in
- 39:59Speaker 2: February because of what they said were mental health issues.
- 40:02Speaker 2: He was apparently placed into a deradicalization program, and now
- 40:07Speaker 2: this alleged attack has taken place. What's interesting to me
- 40:12Speaker 2: is salid bar And I'm commenting more on the reporting
- 40:16Speaker 2: of this now rather than the allegations, because that's what
- 40:19Speaker 2: they are, their allegations. But you've got a salad bar
- 40:21Speaker 2: of ideologies and the only one they mention is Andrew Tate.
- 40:26Speaker 2: I'm no fan of Andrew Tate at all, but I
- 40:28Speaker 2: just found that interesting that that's the one they list.
- 40:31Speaker 3: What were all the others? Why do we only have
- 40:33Speaker 3: that one?
- 40:33Speaker 4: Oh?
- 40:33Speaker 5: I find this absolutely discussing reporting by the Daily Telegraph
- 40:37Speaker 5: honestly do better.
- 40:39Speaker 7: So apparently salad bar of ideologies.
- 40:43Speaker 5: But the headline literally reads from Tate to Terra, how
- 40:47Speaker 5: dare you?
- 40:48Speaker 7: How dare you?
- 40:49Speaker 6: Pin?
- 40:50Speaker 5: Whatever this kid was up to on a guy oceans
- 40:53Speaker 5: away whose videos he might have watched. Why is it
- 40:57Speaker 5: that in today's society we have bought into this. What
- 41:01Speaker 5: I believe stupid notion is that I can go out
- 41:04Speaker 5: do whatever I really want to and then be like, well,
- 41:07Speaker 5: Caleb Bond said such and such on the Late Debate
- 41:10Speaker 5: last week, and now you're under fire for it.
- 41:13Speaker 7: You'll be in the headlines splash. I mean, there's a
- 41:16Speaker 7: lot to.
- 41:16Speaker 5: Be said for Andrew Tate, good and bad, but ultimately
- 41:21Speaker 5: I don't believe he's a terrible role model. He's certainly
- 41:24Speaker 5: not the limpristed losers that most men have to look
- 41:27Speaker 5: up to because society can't.
- 41:29Speaker 7: Offer any better these days.
- 41:30Speaker 5: He is extremely militant and one would say ultra masculine,
- 41:35Speaker 5: but I find him utterly hilarious mostly.
- 41:38Speaker 7: And if it.
- 41:39Speaker 5: Became if it came between having my son look up
- 41:42Speaker 5: to the Minister for Men's Behavioral Change of Victoria or
- 41:47Speaker 5: Andrew Tate, I know who the heck I'd be picking.
- 41:51Speaker 3: It's just Celid bar and that's what they go with it.
- 41:53Speaker 3: It's just unjust.
- 41:54Speaker 5: It is unjust to pin this on Tate and to
- 41:57Speaker 5: feature his picture on the front page of the Daily Telegraph.
- 42:02Speaker 5: They've already admitted that this young man struggles with mental
- 42:05Speaker 5: health issues, and yet you found a way to twist
- 42:08Speaker 5: this into oh Andrew Tate's fault Andrew Tates inspiration just nonsense.
- 42:13Speaker 3: I think it's just alliteration. Take terror. It works.
- 42:16Speaker 2: Let's go the other article on the front page. There
- 42:18Speaker 2: workers teed off on Fridays.
- 42:20Speaker 3: I like this story.
- 42:21Speaker 2: Employees working from home are slacking off at the end
- 42:23Speaker 2: of the week, taking long lunches and hosting virtual meetings
- 42:27Speaker 2: at the Driving Range as Sydney CBD is flatlining, with
- 42:31Speaker 2: close to one thousand office and retail spaces laying empty.
- 42:35Speaker 2: The article goes on to say that most people are
- 42:38Speaker 2: choosing to work from home on Mondays and Fridays, making
- 42:42Speaker 2: all of their office meetings on Tuesday, Wednesdays, Thursdays. Well,
- 42:46Speaker 2: I don't know why that's controversial. It would be controversial
- 42:48Speaker 2: if people weren't doing that, Caleb, that makes perfect sense.
- 42:51Speaker 4: I'm going to say, I don't mind the idea of
- 42:53Speaker 4: taking meetings from the driving Range.
- 42:55Speaker 6: Look, I have railed, as.
- 42:57Speaker 4: You would well know, and many of our viewers would
- 42:58Speaker 4: well know. I have railed against working from home for
- 43:01Speaker 4: quite some time. But there's one part of this that
- 43:04Speaker 4: I really like, and that's the people are taking long
- 43:06Speaker 4: lunches on a Friday, because I think the decline of
- 43:10Speaker 4: the West is like literally a linear line from when
- 43:13Speaker 4: long lunches went out of fashion.
- 43:16Speaker 6: The decline started there.
- 43:18Speaker 4: It was all thanks to Paul Keating when he brought
- 43:21Speaker 4: in the cap not the capital gains tax, the fringe
- 43:23Speaker 4: benefits tax, which has discouraged businesses from punting up money
- 43:27Speaker 4: for people to be able to go out and have
- 43:29Speaker 4: a bit of fun on an expense account. Now, bring
- 43:32Speaker 4: back the long lunch. That's where deals are done. That
- 43:35Speaker 4: is where business is done. It's where as a reporter
- 43:39Speaker 4: I would get good stories on a Friday afternoon over
- 43:42Speaker 4: a few bottles of red and then into the pub
- 43:45Speaker 4: afterwards for a few more pints. I came out of
- 43:47Speaker 4: that with more yarns than I ever did sitting at
- 43:50Speaker 4: my desk.
- 43:51Speaker 6: Bring back the long lunch.
- 43:53Speaker 4: It's what made Australia great, It's what made the West great.
- 43:57Speaker 6: As far as I'm concerned, anyway, do I agree with me?
- 44:00Speaker 2: I'm not going to argue with any of that. I
- 44:02Speaker 2: think it made perfect.
- 44:02Speaker 6: So I want to attend one of these.
- 44:04Speaker 7: It sounds fay, Oh yeah.
- 44:06Speaker 6: Look at the long lunch.
- 44:07Speaker 4: Anyone wants to.
- 44:08Speaker 2: I can't believe you just argued for long lunches and
- 44:10Speaker 2: it would increase productivity.
- 44:12Speaker 4: Absolute, absolutely believe it does increase productivity because.
- 44:16Speaker 5: At the very least as well relationships at work between businesses.
- 44:21Speaker 5: We're sitting down with people from your firm, et cetera,
- 44:23Speaker 5: and so on.
- 44:24Speaker 7: It's a very bonding experience. It's how business is done.
- 44:27Speaker 7: For literally, if I want to.
- 44:30Speaker 3: Get a deal, real estate deals get done on the
- 44:31Speaker 3: golf tep.
- 44:32Speaker 6: Do you want to get a deal done? Do you reckon?
- 44:35Speaker 6: You're going to get a better outcome.
- 44:36Speaker 4: Sitting in a sterile office or having a meal with
- 44:39Speaker 4: someone and a few glasses of wine. I mean, once
- 44:41Speaker 4: they loosen up, a few glasses of wine, just.
- 44:44Speaker 6: Naming your figure. It's how business works.
- 44:47Speaker 4: Let's go to the Newcastle Herald tomorrow where it's is
- 44:49Speaker 4: body cams for staff on hospital front line. Body cams
- 44:53Speaker 4: are the latest weapon in the battle against the rising
- 44:56Speaker 4: number of assaults in public hospitals, including John Hunt Hospital.
- 45:00Speaker 4: Almost ten Hunter, New England based doctors, nurses and other
- 45:04Speaker 4: staff were physically assaulted every week during twenty twenty three,
- 45:08Speaker 4: a total of five hundred and fourteen, and we talked
- 45:12Speaker 4: last night at the story of a paramedic in Victoria
- 45:15Speaker 4: who drove an ambulance off the road after an eighteen
- 45:18Speaker 4: odd hour shift. You've got nurses in hospitals being belted
- 45:23Speaker 4: and pelted for simply doing their jobs. These poor baggers
- 45:26Speaker 4: do not get paid enough.
- 45:28Speaker 3: We've got two big problems in hospitals.
- 45:29Speaker 2: One is we've got a lot of people who are
- 45:31Speaker 2: drug affected turning up at emergency departments, and everyone when
- 45:36Speaker 2: they turn up to an emergency department gets frustrated. Now
- 45:38Speaker 2: that doesn't excuse violent behavior, but people get frustrated because
- 45:42Speaker 2: the weight is so incredibly long.
- 45:45Speaker 3: We're going to go to a break when we come back.
- 45:47Speaker 3: A Melbourne real.
- 45:47Speaker 2: Estate agent who's got a unique sales pitch. He reckons
- 45:50Speaker 2: he's the best looking agent in Melbourne and that's why
- 45:53Speaker 2: you need him to sell your house. Welcome back, Well, Liz,
- 45:58Speaker 2: everyone's wondering if it's not Biden for president, who's it
- 46:02Speaker 2: going to be.
- 46:02Speaker 5: Indeed, after Friday Night's dismal debate performance, everyone's a flutter.
- 46:08Speaker 7: It's pretty much not a.
- 46:09Speaker 5: Question of if Biden will step down, but when will
- 46:13Speaker 5: he and who will step into those shoes. Well, Saturday
- 46:17Speaker 5: Night Live decided to give us some insight into what's
- 46:21Speaker 5: going on within the Democratic ranks right now.
- 46:25Speaker 3: But if Biden's not going to run, who will, in thought.
- 46:32Speaker 1: The jeeriff whizover, I don't know, I don't know.
- 46:35Speaker 7: Come on, there's going to be so he's coy.
- 46:45Speaker 1: Lit their foul, the producers of Smile and the twisted
- 46:49Speaker 1: minds of Morning Joe.
- 47:00Speaker 7: A superstar cooking all the where.
- 47:11Speaker 8: I mean, other than the oft quoted Michelle Obama, Michelle
- 47:14Speaker 8: Obama for the White House.
- 47:16Speaker 5: They really don't have a star crop to choose from.
- 47:19Speaker 4: Like a star crop to me, that looks very Look,
- 47:22Speaker 4: I'm just glad to see Snel actually doing something decent
- 47:26Speaker 4: a right lately.
- 47:27Speaker 6: You know, Well, a broken clock is right twice a
- 47:30Speaker 6: day now. Look at six years old, I said.
- 47:32Speaker 4: On national television that I wanted to be a real
- 47:34Speaker 4: estate agent, and in fact it's six years old. On
- 47:37Speaker 4: national television I sold a house. So I thought that
- 47:41Speaker 4: I had the title of the best looking real estate
- 47:44Speaker 4: agent in the country.
- 47:45Speaker 6: Well, no, there's a bloke down in Melbourne, Noah res I.
- 47:48Speaker 4: He put an ad on the back of a bus
- 47:51Speaker 4: saying that he is the best looking agent in Melbourne,
- 47:54Speaker 4: and that that is why you should buy a house
- 47:57Speaker 4: from him or sell a house with him. You know,
- 47:59Speaker 4: they took about looking like the back end of a bus,
- 48:01Speaker 4: So I don't know that I would have gone for
- 48:02Speaker 4: that option myself.
- 48:04Speaker 6: But here he is explaining why he did it.
- 48:08Speaker 5: Oh.
- 48:08Speaker 14: I always get comments from all the girls at the
- 48:11Speaker 14: office and most importantly by my mum, always saying that
- 48:15Speaker 14: I'm the best looking agent in the area and the funniest.
- 48:18Speaker 14: So that from the girls and the team at their office,
- 48:22Speaker 14: they thought it would be a good idea for us
- 48:24Speaker 14: to stick it on our bus, just to be a
- 48:26Speaker 14: little bit cheeky and different.
- 48:29Speaker 6: Now.
- 48:29Speaker 4: Look, I get compliments from girls in the office as well,
- 48:32Speaker 4: but I don't come on with it.
- 48:34Speaker 6: I don't come on with a super under my name
- 48:36Speaker 6: that she is best looking TV host on But.
- 48:39Speaker 2: He's not just the best looking, he's also the funniest
- 48:42Speaker 2: and he can prove it because he's.
- 48:43Speaker 7: Mum, his mum. He knows he's hamming it up and
- 48:47Speaker 7: it works. We're talking about it.
- 48:49Speaker 3: That's it from us. We've got to go, but stick around.
- 48:51Speaker 3: Coming up is the Reader Penney Show.
