    Ep 310 - Taking Your Freedom to Keep You Safe - Exactly who IS this "eSafety Commissioner" and do we need her?

    This weekend on THE OTHER SIDE...  

    Exactly who IS this "eSafety Commissioner" and do we need her?

    The Australian government is using the stabbing tragedy in Sydney last weekend, combined with the stabbing of a Christian Priest by a Muslim teenage 'terrorist', to resurrect it's nearly-dead draconian proposed Misinformation and Disinformation laws.

    Having had to shelve the laws at the end of last year for lack of political clout  following the devastating Voice Referendum defeat, Albo and co have decided now might be a good time to have another crack at reviving them.
     
    By using the latest tragedies as a weapon arm the eSafety Commissioner to make ridiculous censorship demands of Elon Musk and his platform X, the government hopes the public will see it as a "White Knight" taking on the "Evil Ego-maniac Billionaire."

    Demonstrating their usual spinelessness, the Liberal-National Party Coalition have again abdicated their responsibility to be a true opposition.  Leader Peter Dutton jumping full on-board with the government's plans.  As an ex-policeman, Dutton doesn't mind a bit of heavy-handed government surveillance power over the people.
    Meanwhile, with much to gain from the demise of social media power, the old media players are cheering the political class on to victory.

    But is the double-act working this time?  Or are the elites of Canberra and the Sydney Media mob about to get their backsides handed to them on a platter even more than they did in the Voice vote?   

    Ep 310 of The Other Side for the weekend commencing Friday April 26, 2024.

    Ep 309 - Sydney's PAIN - The Week of the Long Knives - What's to Blame?

    Ep 309 - Sydney's PAIN - The Week of the Long Knives - What's to Blame?

    This weekend on THE OTHER SIDE... 
    Damian explores the reasons behind a week of tragedy and tears for Sydney.
    As sad as the Bondi Junction knife attack was, is there anything anyone could have done to prevent it?
    And what are we not realising about the social and political climate in Western Sydney? An apparently religiously-motivated stabbing attack on a beloved Christian Bishop in the middle of a religious service, left worshippers terrified and brought hundreds of supporters to the streets, sparking a riot. Why?  We speak to local resident and new media commentator Joel Jammal for some important insights.
    Also what does Bruce Lehrmann's loss to Network Ten and Lisa Wilkinson in his defamation lawsuit really tell us about the 'omni-shambles' that is the whole Higgins-Lehrmann 'rape' affair?
    And are Israel and Iran heading for all-out war? One expert thinks not.

    Ep 308 – Is AUSTRALIA (and the west) in Crisis? A Special Episode

    This weekend on THE OTHER SIDE  Damian is joined by two smart friends of the show, past interview guests, businessman and ‘natural law’ expert, Rob McMullan and business leader, former forensic auditor and police prosecutor, Scott Pelto, for a special ‘off the set’ deep dive discussion on the question Is Australia in Crisis?  We all know something just doesn't feel right these days. It's as if we’ve lost our moral centre and sense of national integrity.  Who are we exactly? And what do we stand for? And if we are in some kind of crisis, how do we define it so we can fix it?

    People are dying. Nobody cares. Australia had 15,000 more deaths than usual during 2023.

Damian has some thoughts. The Hypocrisy of Albo and Chris Bowen - Flying two separate RAAF jets to a PR event about vehicle energy consumption reduction says it all about the sincerity of climate catastrophe campaigners. Kids Out of Control - Youth criminals are challenging each other to one-upmanship games on social media, putting the lives of police and the public at serious risk. Ep 307 of The Other Side for the weekend commencing Friday April 5, 2024.

Isn’t The First Step Admitting You Have a Problem?

Even though I fully admit an addiction to this podcast, I have no intention of quitting. As a California Yank kept apart from her Aussie partner for more than a year, I depend on Damian Coory to keep me up-to-date on happenings in Oz so I can converse with my guy in a reasonably informed manner. That aside, I truly believe this podcast is a “must” for any freedom-loving fan of classical liberalism, free markets, truth, and reason—or any citizen of the world weary of revisionism and the trite & tired bashing of Western civilization. Yeah, I capitalized “Western.” Anyway, give it a listen; it’s informative, it’s pithy-yet-funny, and it’s a great listen during your commute or your p.m. walk.
