    LISTEN: Labor's $22.7 Billion Electricity Betrayal & Albanese's Podcast Blunder

    Jeremy Cordeaux presents The Court of Public Opinion. The energy regulator's own report lays it out in black and white: electricity prices have risen $22.7 billion since Labor came to power — despite the promise of a $275 saving. Jeremy asks how Energy Minister Chris Bowen can keep blaming the previous government, and why net zero and the renewables push have made power dearer, not cheaper. Also in this episode: Anthony Albanese's cringeworthy podcast appearance filmed at The Lodge; One Nation's plan to scrap the Office of Multicultural Affairs; Tony Abbott's powerful London speech on mass migration; the case for banning gambling advertising; Fiji's Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka and the politics of the South Pacific; plus Jeremy's "On This Day". Proudly supported by Rossdale Homes — when trust is a must. rossdalehomes.com.au Have your say — call in on Friday's live stream at jeremycordeaux.com. New episodes posted Tuesday and Thursday.

    LISTEN: The Karl Stefanovic Sacking, Free Speech & Why CBS Just Killed 700 Radio Stations | Jeremy Cordeaux's Court of Public Opinion

    Jeremy Cordeaux is back in the Rossdale Homes garage on another chilly Adelaide morning for a wide-ranging Court of Public Opinion. With the studio computer still down, Jeremy roams freely: Aldi is crowned Australia's cheapest supermarket, the Vespa turns 80, and SA Opposition Leader Ashton Hearn's second pregnancy prompts a frank discussion on whether a party leader can juggle high office and motherhood — and Jeremy's contrarian take on taxpayer-funded parental leave. The heart of the show is the Karl Stefanovic saga: sacked by Channel Nine after interviewing controversial figure Tommy Robinson on his new podcast. Jeremy uses it to reflect on freedom of speech, media loyalty, and the seismic shift from radio and TV to podcasts and live streaming — pointing to CBS shutting 700 US radio stations after 100 years. Drawing on his own extraordinary career — the Truro murderer, a Washington siege, standover threats from the builders' union — Jeremy argues that a broadcaster's greatest asset is its people. He closes on the $435 million Australia spends on multiculturalism. Live from the dining room table. TOPICS DISCUSSED  Broadcasting from the garage; computer/system failure, no dates again Aldi named Australia's cheapest supermarket The Vespa turns 80 — mod culture, Adelaide nostalgia, what "Vespa" means SA Opposition Leader Ashton Hearn's second pregnancy — leading a party while mothering two small children Jeremy's contrarian view on taxpayer-funded parental leave (and agreeing with Pauline Hanson) The Karl Stefanovic saga — Channel Nine declining to renew, then sacking him over a Tommy Robinson podcast interview Freedom of speech and where its limits lie ("you can't yell fire in a crowded hall") The shift from radio/TV to podcasts and live streaming; CBS closing 700 US radio stations after 100 years Media economics — audience fragmentation, no critical mass for big stars and high overheads Kyle Sandilands' reported $100m/10-year deal and unsustainable contracts Loyalty in media — management backing its talent; Jeremy's builders' union standover story at 5KA Jeremy's career interviews — the Truro mass murderer (Walkley win) and the 1977 Washington Hanafi siege (NY gold medal) The $435 million Australia spends on multiculturalism; recent city demonstrations See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    LISTEN: Inflation Lies, The "Widow Tax" Trap & The End Of The Christian Brothers | Jeremy Cordeaux's Court of Public Opinion

    Thanks to Rossdale Homes, Jeremy Cordeaux broadcasts from the garage on the coldest day of winter for another no-holds-barred Court of Public Opinion. With the studio computer down, Jeremy runs free across the week's biggest issues: the inflation sleight-of-hand where Labor spruiks falling headline numbers while underlying inflation climbs to 3.6% — the figure the Reserve Bank actually watches — plus record-low auction clearances signalling a slowing housing market. He brands the PM's under-16 social media ban "show business" after 86% of kids found a way around it, unpacks Senator David Pocock's "widow tax" trap buried in the budget's negative gearing changes, and watches Jim Chalmers "build the aeroplane while it's up there." Jeremy also turns to the Venezuela double-earthquake catastrophe and its failed socialist government, a One Nation member crossing the floor to vote with Labor and the Greens, the ABC's renaming campaign, and the quiet end of the Christian Brothers in Australia after half a billion dollars in abuse payouts.

    LISTEN: Australia Is Broken... Here's How We'd Fix It | Jeremy Cordeaux Garage Edition

    Jeremy Cordeaux delivers another passionate edition of The Court of Public Opinion, taking aim at government spending, taxation, gambling advertising, public sector growth and the treatment of Australia's iconic Brumbies. Jeremy outlines what he believes are the major reforms needed to get Australia back on track, including lower taxes, reduced government bureaucracy and a stronger focus on productivity and economic growth. He also questions Labor's handling of gambling reform, discusses Australia's world-leading gambling losses, and argues that growing economic hardship is contributing to family stress, homelessness and financial desperation. The episode finishes with a strong defence of Australia's wild horses and a call for greater public action to stop the Brumby cull. Basic Topics Discussed Fixing Australia's economy Government debt and taxation Fringe Benefits Tax and Capital Gains Tax Public service growth Productivity and economic reform Pauline Hanson and One Nation Gambling addiction in Australia Gambling advertising controversy Cost of living pressures Family violence and homelessness Government revenue from gambling Brumby cull debate Animal welfare concerns Australian history and heritage This Day In History segment Carly Simon birthday Qantas job cuts history David Letterman Little Bighorn battle See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    LISTEN: Pauline Hanson Surges, The CFMEU Scandal Deepens & Adelaide's Tree Massacre

    Jeremy Cordeaux marks the anniversary of his arrival in Adelaide and reflects on a lifetime in broadcasting before launching into a fiery critique of the Albanese Government, union influence, public sector growth and economic management. Jeremy examines the collapse in auction clearance rates, Pauline Hanson’s rising political fortunes, the CFMEU controversy, and Labor’s decision to abolish the Australian Building and Construction Commission. He also tackles the Adelaide Parklands tree removal controversy, the ongoing Brumby cull in New South Wales, and what he sees as double standards in animal welfare policy. Along the way, he shares personal reflections, historical observations and his trademark commentary on politics, culture and current affairs.

    LIVE: Dr Kevin Donnelly AM: Wake Up To Woke, The Long March Through The Institutions & Why Pauline Resonates | Jeremy Cordeaux

    Education author Dr Kevin Donnelly AM joins Jeremy Cordeaux — with Dr John Bruni and Professor Ian Plimer at the table — to discuss his new book Wake Up to Woke and the cultural shift reshaping politics here and abroad. Donnelly traces the "long march through the institutions" from Gramsci to today's classrooms, drawing on Roger Scruton's idea of "oikophobia" to explain why voters are fed up with a globalist elite — and why Pauline Hanson, authentic and consistent over thirty years, instinctively resonates where polished apparatchiks do not. The panel argues a change of government won't be enough while an entrenched Canberra bureaucracy holds the real power, and makes the case for decentralising the public service, abolishing ACARA, and reviving a classical, liberal-arts education over a STEM-only model. A sharp conversation on culture, schooling and where the country is heading, recorded live from the dining room table. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    LIVE: Frank Pangallo: The Illegal Tobacco Boom, The "Fire The Liar" Surge & Why The Liberals Won't Fight | Jeremy Cordeaux

    Former South Australian MP and veteran journalist Frank Pangallo joins Jeremy Cordeaux — with Dr John Bruni at the table and a guest turn from political strategist Toby Ralph — for a frank, funny and pointed look at where politics has gone wrong. Pangallo, who rang the alarm on illegal tobacco in Parliament years ago, explains how a $7 billion-a-year black market built a "tobacco mafia" bigger than drugs while bureaucrats looked away, and uses the Laffer curve to show how over-taxation drove it. The panel digs into a Greens bill redefining parenthood, the politics behind South Australia's abortion vote, and Pauline Hanson's extraordinary "Fire the Liar" war chest — 75,000 battlers tipping in $50 at a time. Toby Ralph delivers three blunt pieces of advice to Hanson and a warning to the Liberals: you can only win from the centre. Recorded live from the dining room table for The Court of Public Opinion.

    LIVE: Professor Ian Plimer & Dr John Bruni: Pauline Hanson's Rise, Gina Rinehart & The Global Populist Wave | Jeremy Cordeaux

    Geologist, author and mining-company director Professor Ian Plimer joins Jeremy Cordeaux — with Dr John Bruni also at the table — for a wide-ranging panel on the shifting ground of Australian politics. Plimer argues Pauline Hanson has become a serious political force as high-profile figures like Gina Rinehart publicly back One Nation, while a divided Liberal Party, hamstrung by its "wets," keeps sliding. He makes the case for reward and incentive over "fear and forced," skewers bracket creep and a "fourth-generation Canberra" elite disconnected from struggling families, and shares his first-hand read on Nigel Farage, whom he first met in 1981. Bruni weighs in on the global populist wave — Giorgia Meloni's surprising pragmatism, Farage, and the lessons of Whitlam's catastrophic overreach. Sharp, contrarian and rich with insider anecdotes, recorded live from the dining room table for The Court of Public Opinion. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
