Tech Talk – Microsoft’s Humanist AI Code and the Massive Global Price Gap of the iPhone Duo with Stephen Fenech

Told that skyrocketing migration and housing pressures are just a big-city problem? Think again. 

Brent catches up with Mike the Oz Trucker, who is currently heading north and straight into Townsville later today and Cairns tomorrow for the Australia Marches National Tour. As the tour rolls through regional Queensland, we look at what truckers and everyday Aussies are seeing on the ground—from soaring property costs and rental crunches to infrastructure failing to keep pace.


Life on the Open Highway: Mike shares firsthand perspectives from behind the windscreen on how regional transport arteries and towns are feeling the pinch.


The Scale of Migration: Examining the numbers behind the national conversation, including the 1.2 million migrants brought into Australia between 2022–25. 


Housing & Infrastructure Strain: Unpacking the real-world impact of surging costs, such as Brisbane's median house price hitting $1.11 million. 


The Regional Tour Sentiment: What grassroots crowds are saying at stops from Gladstone and Mackay to Townsville’s Jezzine Park and Cairns’ Esplanade.

If you want to hear the unvarnished views of regional truckies and everyday Australians feeling the strain, this is an absolute must-listen.

Road to Townsville and Cairns – Mike the Oz Trucker on the "Australia Marches" National Tour

Told that tightening national migration targets won't impact your weekly grocery basket? Think again. 

The Albanese government has unveiled its long-awaited migration overhaul, aiming to slash net overseas migration and crack down on visa loopholes and working holiday makers. But while the policy targets city-centric numbers, regional Australia is sounding the alarm. Brent is joined by Michael Guerin, CEO of the National Farmers' Federation, to unpack why slashing seasonal workforce pathways could hit farms, regional towns, and Australia's food supply hard. 


The Seasonal Workforce Crunch: Examining how relying on temporary workers and backpackers—who fill roughly one in seven farm jobs nationally—keeps the agricultural sector afloat. 


Echoes of COVID Shortages: Looking back at how past labor constraints drove fresh produce price spikes of up to 25 per cent. 


More Than Just Farm Hands: Unpacking how seasonal workers support regional economies through local spending, accommodation, and hospitality. 


The Food Security Test: Asking at what point a lack of agricultural workers directly impacts what farmers can harvest and put on supermarket shelves. 

If you want to look past the political numbers and understand what migration policy means for food prices and regional communities, this is an absolute must-listen.
