Brent takes a hard look at Bob Katter’s recent behavior toward journalists. From threats to aggressive labeling and postering, Katter’s actions go far beyond ordinary political pushback—they intimidate the media and erode public confidence in our democracy. No elected official should respond to legitimate questions with intimidation or hostility. 

Brent unpacks why this matters for press freedom, how it impacts public trust, and what it says about accountability in Australian politics today.

Crossing the Line: Aggression, Intimidation, and Public Trust

This week we’re joined by resident astrologer Sue Dunwoody to unpack a rare and powerful astrological setup — with seven planets now in Aries, bringing a surge of energy, urgency, and fast-moving change.

We break down what this means for communication, relationships, and decision-making as Mercury enters Aries mid-week, sharpening words and speeding up reactions. Then we look ahead to the New Moon in Aries, a moment traditionally linked to new beginnings, bold choices, and fresh starts.

Across the board, the theme is clear: action over hesitation — but with a strong warning around impulsive decisions, heated exchanges, and saying things before thinking them through.

It’s a week defined by momentum, emotion, and confrontation — with every sign feeling the pressure in a different way.

All Eyes on Aries — A High-Intensity Week in the Stars 

This week we’re joined by astronomer David Reneke to unpack a landmark moment in space exploration — the successful return of NASA’s Artemis II mission after its historic crewed journey around the Moon.

For the first time in over 50 years, astronauts have travelled beyond low Earth orbit and returned safely, completing a full lunar fly-by and proving key systems needed for future Moon landings.

We break down what was achieved, what the astronauts experienced while viewing the Moon from deep space, and why Australia played an important role in tracking and deep-space communications.

We also look at the most intense phase of the mission — re-entry and ocean splashdown — where temperatures soared to extreme levels and precision recovery operations were critical to mission success.

It’s a conversation about engineering, exploration, human perspective, and what this mission now means for the next era of lunar travel.

Artemis II Returns — Moon Mission Breakthrough, Astronaut Perspective, and a High-Stakes Splashdown 

Join us as we take a closer look at Australia’s medicine supply chain at a time of growing global uncertainty, and ask a simple but important question — should Australians be concerned about access to the medicines they rely on?

We’re joined by Liz de Somer, CEO of Medicines Australia, to break down how the system actually works behind the scenes, and why more than 90% of medicines used in Australia are manufactured overseas.

While the system is generally stable and highly regulated, it is also deeply connected to global manufacturing and logistics networks — meaning disruptions overseas can quickly flow through to local pharmacies and hospitals.

We explore what actually causes medicine shortages, how often they occur, and what happens when supply is interrupted. We also look at how government and industry respond in real time to maintain continuity, including substitution arrangements and contingency planning.

It’s a clear, practical discussion about resilience, risk, and what Australians should really understand about the medicines they depend on.
