    Budget Backlash, Jai Arrow's MND Diagnosis & the Christchurch Link to a US Mosque Shooting

    This week on Covered, the budget backlash explodes into a full-blown revolt as small business owners flood social media with AI-generated memes and the opposition seizes on the chaos. Rugby league is rocked by the devastating news that South Sydney star Jai Arrow has been diagnosed with MND at just 30. And a mass shooting at a California mosque carried out by two teenagers inspired by Christchurch killer Brenton Tarrant brings one of the darkest chapters in our region's history back into devastating focus.

    ISIS Brides Home, Matt Wright's Prison Blow and Queensland's Ministerial Love Triangle

    This week on Covered, Australia's so-called ISIS brides touch down in Sydney and Melbourne after more than a decade away, and the AFP was waiting. We unpack the arrests, the children, and why the political fallout for the Albanese government is only just beginning. Then, crocodile wrangler and Netflix star Matt Wright is denied early prison release, meaning he will miss the birth of his third child by days. And in Queensland, a cabinet affair has exploded into a full blown integrity crisis - two ministers, a two year romance, and a multimillion dollar Olympic decision that raises serious questions about conflict of interest at the top of the Crisafulli government.

    Bondi Attack ‘Couldn’t Be Stopped’, Trump Assassination Plot & ISIS Brides Blocked

    The Bondi interim report is out and the biggest takeaway is confronting - authorities say there was likely nothing that could have been done to prevent the attack. We unpack what the recommendations actually say and why that conclusion is raising eyebrows. There’s also been a third alleged assassination attempt on US President Donald Trump. We get into the man reportedly at the centre of it including the bizarre, rambling manifesto calling himself “the friendly assassin.” Plus Australia’s ISIS brides saga takes another turn, with a group of women and children reportedly stopped from returning after attempting to fly back.

    Geelong refinery up in flames, Hungary's far right falls & Harry and Meghan's not-so-royal tour

    Australia's fuel crisis just got a whole lot worse after a fire ripped through one of the country's only two remaining oil refineries. We debunk some of the biggest myths around Australia's fuel supply and how the PM's fortnight in a hardhat across Asia has actually paid off. Then to Hungary where voters have toppled strongman Viktor Orban in a landslide that's raising a bigger question - is the global far right losing its grip? And Harry and Meghan have touched down in Australia for what smells a lot like a royal tour, only they're not royals anymore and they're charging up to three grand for the privilege.

    Ben Roberts-Smith Behind Bars, Savannah Guthrie's Return to TV & Humans Just Went to the Moon

    It's been a week! Australia's most decorated living soldier Ben Roberts-Smith has been arrested at Sydney Airport and charged with five counts of war crime murder. We break down the charges, the public arrest that's divided the country, and why the way it was carried out is raising just as many questions as the allegations themselves. Then, Today Show host Savannah Guthrie returned to breakfast television two months after her elderly mother Nancy was abducted from her home in Arizona and hasn't been seen since. We talk about how the network handled her comeback, what was said and what deliberately wasn't. AND finally a moment that genuinely had us in tears. Humans went to the moon and came back! NASA's Artemis II crew completed a ten-day mission and splashed down in the Pacific.

    Albo's National Address Backfires, Dezi Freeman Shot Dead & Kyle and Jackie O's $160M War With ARN

    It's been a week! The PM gave a national address on the fuel crisis and somehow left the country more rattled than before he started talking. We unpack why it's been called everything from a flop to a waste of airtime and what it tells us about how this government is handling the crisis. Then, after 216 days on the run, Australia's most wanted man Dezi Freeman has been killed in a police shootout and the details of how it all ended are something else. And in a story you genuinely could not make up, Jackie O has dropped an $82 million lawsuit on ARN, meaning both her and Kyle are now suing the company for a combined $160 million, all seemingly because of a conversation about Prince Andrew's horoscope. We've got the best bits from nearly 300 court documents and trust us, it's juicy.
