Booking Overview

A daily news podcast focused on Australian national affairs, current events, and newsroom analysis, with a journalist-led format that primarily features internal Australian journalists rather than external interview guests. It is therefore not a conventional guest-placement target; PR agencies would have limited opportunities for clients such as senior officials, policy experts, legal analysts, or prominent newsmakers, and any booking would likely require direct relevance to a major developing story.

Mossad tried to wipe out the Houthis. They’re back with a vengeance

July 21, 2026

Feared spy agency Mossad tried to wipe out the Houthis in 2025 – but this band of fiercely anti-semitic, anti-American Shiite rebels, who are funded by Iran, are very hard to kill.
