    Can Australia Admit to Our Trump Moment? Plus, the Wild Epstein Conspiracies and the ABC's Missing Show

    Os and Scott watched Karl Stefanovic's hour-long interview with Anthony Albanese so you didn't have to. They break down why the interview was embarrassing for everyone involved, how Stefanovic has cultivated a hard-right audience, and why that's now blowing up in his face. Next, they look at the disruptive impact Pauline Hanson and One Nation are already having on our political system, including influencing the federal government on immigration policy and their approach to Australian women and children trapped in Syria. They examine whether the media coverage of One Nation has improved, and discuss what journalists, and political parties, could do differently. Later in the show, Scott breaks down some the harmful Epstein conspiracy theories finding traction on social media and why they are resonating when the actual truth is scandalous enough. In Keeping Tabs, Os and Scott look at why the ABC suddenly pulled an episode of Australian Story, which it had been hyping up for days, and share some of their favourite stories from Australian media outlets over the past week.

    How Andrew's Arrest Turbocharged the Epstein Story. Plus, Trump's Dangerous New Global Order

    Scott and Os start the show by talking about why Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's arrest is so significant and what it tells us about the Epstein story. They break down exactly what he is being investigated for, how the story has been covered, and how the Epstein files continue to reveal more and more about corrupt, shadowy networks that influence global politics and finance. Later in the show, they step through Trump's dangerous new foreign policy escalations including the launch of his Gaza "board for peace" and the ongoing threats around Iran, as well as discussing how the interview between Tucker Carlson and Mike Huckabee exposes how the political right in the US are split on the question of support for Israel. Finally, they end with a discussion on Sky News Australia's rebrand, and whether it will help or hurt the Murdoch-owned TV network.

    What's Behind the Media's Pauline Hanson Obsession? Plus, the Pod Save America Frenzy

    Os and Scott unpack how Pauline Hanson has been able to dominate the news and political conversation for the past week, all by going on Sky News and denigrating Muslims. They discuss why the media gives Hanson more oxygen and attention than any other political figure and why they refuse to interrogate her views when given the chance, and Scott looks at how reporting on Hanson during the 1990s and 2000s was much stronger than it is now. Later in the show, they examine Labor's attempts to try and take back control of the political news cycle. In Keeping Tabs, Os asks whether anyone knows who is editing The Sydney Morning Herald, Scott dives into Australia's obsession with Pod Save America, and a look at censorship at CBS, from Stephen Colbert to 60 Minutes.

    Is Australian Politics Idiot-Maxxing? Plus, How Herzog's Visit Divided the Country

    Os and Scott begin by looking at the impact of reporting on the Epstein files, including the fact that criminal charges have been brought against multiple figures Lamestream exclusively revealed were tied to Epstein in November last year. Then they look at the Liberal party's leadership spill and how it was covered, including the build-up to the party room vote, what prompted Sussan Ley's political demise, how Angus Taylor will be different, and what the consequences could be on Australian politics more broadly. Later, they discuss the fallout and legacy of Israeli President Isaac Herzog's visit to Australia and how the government and media subtly changed their tune after protests revealed the depth of anger in the community to the visit. Finally, they unpack the significance of ABC staff voting to strike over pay and conditions. Support Lamestream by visiting our website to sign up and become a subscriber.

    How the Media Fuelled Police Brutality. Plus, an Epstein Files Cheat-Sheet

    Os and Scott unpack the violent police crackdown on protesters opposing the Israeli President's visit to Sydney on Monday. They discuss the confronting footage of police tackling Muslim men as they prayed and evidence police punched a number of protestors as they were restrained, before zooming out to look at how the political and media atmosphere over the past two years led the country to this horrific moment. Then they discuss the global fallout from the latest revelations in the Epstein files, and why the media coverage in Australia seems so far behind the rest of the world. They step through how the files reveal an international network of patronage, money and favours involving some of the most powerful figures in global politics and examine the allegations that Epstein was an intelligence asset. In Keeping Tabs, Scott and Os review the ABC's Four Corners episode this week examining intelligence failures in the lead-up to the Bondi attack, and Scott shares a good news story about the media industry.

    How the Media Whitewashed Israel's President. Plus, the ABC Email that Panicked Staff and the Coalition is Back!

    Os and Scott start by discussing the reunification of the Coalition and how seriously we should take it. Then they discuss their latest exclusive reporting on Jeffrey Epstein and his interest in international affairs and diplomacy. Next, they discuss how Australia's media has given Israel's President Isaac Herzog the red carpet treatment and accused those protesting his Australia trip of supporting the Bondi terrorists. They also discuss the NSW Government's attack on writer Randa Abdel-Fattah and her involvement at the Newcastle Writers Festival. Later in the show, Scott breaks down how a controversial ABC edict could put the organisation's journalists and their sources at risk, and severely limit the broadcaster's ability to report on key issues.

    Our Rudd-Epstein Exclusive, the Israel Protest Ban, and the ABC Investigates Tyra Banks

    Os and Scott open the show by discussing their exclusive story on Kevin Rudd and Jeffrey Epstein published this week. Then, they turn to the decision by NSW Police to ban protests during the visit of Israel's President, and how predictions that new laws rushed through parliament would be used to protect Israel have been proven right. Next, they discuss The Daily Aus' curious strategy on social media comments that seems to prohibit discussion on Gaza, but not much else, and how questions from Lamestream led to a shift. Later in the show, they have a big conversation about polling: why it's influencing the political conversation so much, how it works and how accurate it really is. Finally, in Keeping Tabs, they look at Nine's decision to sell its radio division and buy a billboard company, and the ABC's exposes on Tyra Banks' "hot ice cream" venture.

    How Albanese's Invitation to Israel's President Sparked a Political Storm

    Os and Scott dive into the growing political and community backlash to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's decision to invite Israel's President Isaac Herzog to Australia. They discuss the background to the trip, how Herzog being cited in the genocide case at the International Court of Justice, how it makes Australia's commitment to human rights look pretty weak, and how momentum against the visit is growing. Then, Scott steps through the Israeli government's recent admission that the Gazan health ministry figures of at least 70,000 Palestinians being killed by the IDF are accurate, and what the consequences of that should be in newsrooms that treated the figures with scepticism. Later in the show, Os and Scott look at the US' descent into authoritarianism and how Trump appears to be using the threat of war with Iran to distract from the growing protest movement against his government. Plus, a check-in on where the Liberal leadership fiasco is at. Support Lamestream by visiting our website to sign up and become a subscriber.
