Tim Wilson on Hastie's exit, and bringing back that 'big Liberal energy'

The member for Goldstein, Tim Wilson, is a guest on the podcast this week during a very interesting time for the Liberal Party. Last week, home affairs spokesman Andrew Hastie quit the front bench, followed by infighting and internal leaking. Wilson talks about his relationship with Hastie and the former frontbencher's 'fraught' decision to step back, and where the party's soul-searching could possibly lead.

Wi-Fi on the long-haul: Is the final frontier of silence over?

If you’re lucky enough to be on a plane these days, flying somewhere, it’s so easy to feel ungrateful. Does anyone need to watch the film Red 2, again? And why do we get so sweaty? But sitting way up high in the air for a long time, you can experience actual peace of mind. To concentrate, work, relax. Or - here’s a surprising benefit - just be … bored. Today, senior reporter Chris Zappone, on the joys of his recent 17-hour long-flight from Singapore to New York City. And the new technology that might bring this to a halt.

Free range? Or food fraud? The new tech exposing ‘bogus’ Australian food labels

Can we trust food labels? As in, is the chicken in the supermarket fridge really free-range like it says it is? Are the "local" prawns from a fishmonger at the market really Australian? Today, science reporter Angus Dalton talks about new technology developed by Australian scientists that can uncover where food truly comes from, and the results may well lead you to question what you’re buying on your weekly shop.

The deaths at Alva Beach. Was this a case of self-defence?

Almost seven years ago to the day, on the NRL grand final weekend, a bizarre set of events unfolded. An injured woman knocked on the door of a stranger, saying she was escaping from two men, and that she needed help. The 19-year-old air force cadet who answered the door let the woman in and called emergency services before the men forced their way into the home. The slightly built teenager armed himself with a knife, and the end result? The two men were killed. It seems like a case of self-defence, but a new podcast called 'Alva Beach: Death at the Door' - from 60 Minutes reporter Adam Hegarty - says there are still holes in the story that need to be answered. And just a warning, listeners may find the contents of this episode distressing. Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Can Albanese claim credit for Trump’s peace plan?

The prime minister has just returned from 10 days of high-wire diplomacy, initially at the United Nations in New York before swinging through London and stopping by Abu Dhabi on his way home. He’s claimed some credit for helping push along a potential peace plan for Gaza, spruiked Australia’s social media ban on the global stage, and drummed up interest in Australia’s green transition and critical minerals reserve. Foreign affairs correspondent Matthew Knott was on the PM’s plane and, with Jacqueline Maley away this week, he joins chief political correspondent Paul Sakkal.

Introducing: Diagnosing Murder

For decades, families in Australia and overseas, have been accused of one of the worst crimes imaginable – child abuse. Diagnosing Murder is an investigative podcast about parents who've had their children taken away, sat in the dock and even done time in prison. All for something they insist they didn't do – shake their baby. Can we trust the science behind shaken baby syndrome? Or are innocent people being locked up for a crime they never committed?

Why Western democracies are struggling against Russia's and China’s 'hybrid war'

On the weekend, Denmark reported unidentified drones had appeared above its major military bases. It was the country’s third drone alarm in a week and one of five European nations in a month to experience incursions - from either drones suspected of Russian origin or from the Russian Air Force itself. So why is Russia violating Europe’s skies, seemingly with impunity? Political and international editor Peter Hartcher says it’s all part of a "hybrid war", and one that Australia is no stranger to. And, Hartcher argues, the West has been blind to these attacks. Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
