7am

Ruby’s interviewing style has improved lately, therefore the podcast sounds more professional. Good work.

Some excellent work here, the team has so much talent in pulling together stories. Fundamentally this series has a balance issue. Episodes are generally built around an issue or individual, and an opposing argument is included very rarely. Since early 2025 I’ve noticed a very obvious focus on niche far-left issues, which is fine as long as you’re not looking for a balanced product.

Thankyou 7am for covering the other side of the story of NDIS reform. The focus on fraud has left stories of the impact to participants impacted by reform at all costs out of the picture. Great to see 7am offering balance

Karvalas is as out of touch with why Australia voters are disgruntled as the Democratics were in the US elections. So this is not a podcast with quality analysis, that’s for sure. Neglecting your base, and ignoring the very real problems they face - housing, cost of living, cost of education, poor funding for mental health, just to focus on a few areas that need attention are part of the cause. And the constant overlay of “woke” policies (significantly driven by the ABC, it must be said) that voters find irritating and unrelatable all set us on the frightening path where Right parties (genuinely right, not the mythical right that encompasses anyone who disagrees with Karvalas, on her measures) gain ascendancy. If you want political success, focus on the issues that the left (the real Left - not the “progressives” who are anti free speech, anti worker and neglectful of policies that lift the least well-off) that will genuinely improve society.
