    1.03 - Inescapable - Social Cohesion Enforcers

    JOIN PLUS+ The controversial return of so called ISIS brides to Australia raises urgent questions about national security, rehabilitation, and risk. These are women who left with their children to support the Islamic State and are now seeking repatriation but are they deradicalised and safe to reintegrate, or do warning signs such as reports of Islamic State linked groups targeting young gay men and children allegedly expressing violent extremist views suggest deeper dangers? We also examine concerns around the policing of speech in Australia, the introduction of multicultural police units, privacy fears tied to China and diaspora intimidation claims, as well as emerging tech vulnerabilities from robot vacuum hacks to broader IoT security flaws. The discussion expands to declining standards of public decency, before our Plus+ segment turns to renewed investigations into grooming gang scandals in the United Kingdom, questioning whether authorities were merely negligent or potentially complicit. To finish, we lighten the mood with a look at the latest Chad rankings, online conspiracy chatter, and what fresh telecom hack data may reveal about society.

    1.02 - Inescapable - Radical Safety

    GET INESCAPABLE PLUS+ A series of disturbing and deeply polarising stories shaping debate at home and abroad headline the show this week. We examine the fallout from the random stabbing in Sydney and the scrutiny of the NSW mental health system after an escaped patient was charged with murder, before turning to France where the death of a far-right activist has ignited fierce arguments about political violence and the hypocrisy of rival factions. We also cover the Taliban’s reported stance on domestic violence in Afghanistan, the jailing of Brandan Koschel over speech at an Australia Day protest and the broader battle over hate speech laws, plus the deeply contentious discussion around Canada’s assisted dying regime and why some critics warn of troubling historical parallels. In the Plus+ extension, we dig into failures in policing, speech and social cohesion, the rise of basement broadcasters and intergenerational ideological clashes, claims of Chinese authorities intimidating citizens on Australian soil, explosive online culture wars from the UK to Melbourne, and a review of a controversial “peace map” that has stirred talking.

    Get the Full Episode on Inescapable Plus+ Upon the eve of our new show Inescapable, Australia became a nation in shock. Laws were drafted with such extraordinary speed that many began questioning whether the country is becoming the world’s proving ground for a new era of speech control, or if something deeper is unfolding beneath the chaos. In this first episode, we examine how moments of crisis can rapidly reshape a nation. After a series of horrific attacks left the public shaken, sweeping speech restrictions appeared almost ready to deploy. Why was the legislation so expansive? Why did it move with such urgency? And why does Australia increasingly feel like a testing ground for policies that could ripple far beyond its borders? We explore the tension between security and liberty and the long historical pattern of governments expanding authority in times of fear. Is this reactive governance, or something more deliberate? At the same time, another current is rising. Australians are debating, questioning, and rediscovering long held values of free expression, mutual respect, and the promise of a fair go. In the friction between protection and freedom, a deeper national conversation is taking shape. Is this the beginning of lasting suppression, or the catalyst for a civic reawakening? Some forces may seem inescapable, but history reminds us that societies are not passive. This is only the beginning.
