Os and Scott react to the Prime Minister's address to the nation and look at what Anthony Albanese actually said that warranted the most dramatic intervention into TV networks since the Covid pandemic in 2020.
Also in today's episode, they unpack the overwhelmingly negative responses to the government's fuel excise tax cut and discuss why the PM seems so reluctant to take more serious action, even as countries around the world are announcing more significant stimulus measures.
Plus, a discussion about the reaction to the killing of Dezi Freeman and why some public figures felt comfortable celebrating his death at the hands of police, even as details about the stand-off and shooting remain murky.
And later in the show, they examine the National Press Club's decision to platform Israel's ambassador and how that exposes the organisation's hypocrisy. In Keeping Tabs, Scott spots an interview the ABC conducted with one of the figures featured in the Epstein files thousands of times. Was he asked about his relationship to Jeffrey Epstein? You'll never believe the answer.
