The Hon John Anderson AC

KAN English News Flash

Sen Jonathon Duniam MP

Jean and Ellen Reid

The program is replayed Fridays between 2PM and 3PM on Melbourne’s 3ZZZ 92.3FM

This week’s Summer Series episode is focusing on: Voices supporting Australian Jewry #1

 

 

Title: The Hon John Anderson AC – I feel very strongly about antisemitism (*from 4:25 mins)

(Original broadcast date: February 5, 2025)

Description: Maurice Klein speaks with The Hon John Anderson AC, commentator who served as the leader of the National Party and the 11th deputy Prime Minister of Australia from 1999 to 2005 under The Hon John Howard AC. John is a staunch friend of the Jewish community and Israel. With the massive wave of anti-Israel antisemitism storming Australia and the West, John believes that "we are at a  civilizational moment, the longer we ignore it, the longer we refuse to stand against it, the more likely it will be that it ends badly ". John feels strongly about antisemitism, deploring racism and hatred, and with everything happening in Australia he tells us that the Jewish community does have friends who are coming out in support. John states that he "looks forward to effective, moral leadership in this country" and tells us that PM Albanese and Foreign Minister Wong are deserting Israel big time at the UN, has only given succour to Hamas and the Israel haters. He believes that the antisemitism in Australia along with the feckless leadership from our Labor government is now an issue at the upcoming Federal election, and tells us that Peter Dutton has not abandoned and will not abandon the Jewish community and Israel. John Anderson AC you are a Mensch and a Blessing.

Title: Sen Jonathon Duniam MP – The Government is not serious about community safety and unity (from 37:15 mins)

(Original broadcast date: October 29, 2025)

Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with Liberal Senator for Tasmania, Sen Jonathon Duniam MP, the recently appointed Shadow Minister for Home Affairs about the entrance into Australia of almost 2000 Gazans (compared with 150 – 260 Gaza visas granted by France, Britain and Germany, and only 17 by the USA over the same period), the foreshadowing of the arrival of a further 600-700 Gazans despite the recently brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, and the return of the so-called ISIS brides and their children.

 

 

 

Title: Jean and Ellen Reid – The Christian bible is a Jewish book (from 47:58 mins)

(Original broadcast date: November 12, 2025)

Description: Malka Lawrence speaks with Jean and Ellen Reid, who founded The Bible Museum in St Arnaud a unique, family-run museum celebrating the Bible’s history, languages, and artefacts. This interview was inspired by a story shared by Maurice Klein, who heard it from Sam Blumenstein, President of the Yids on Wheels motorcycle group. During a country ride through Victoria, the group spotted an Israeli flag and menorah in a shop window in St Arnaud. Curious, they stopped and discovered The Bible Museum, a hidden gem that left a lasting impression.

Chip Le Grand

David Collier

Dr Rachael Kohn AO

The program is replayed Fridays between 2PM and 3PM on Melbourne’s 3ZZZ 92.3FM

This week’s Summer Series episode is focusing on: The Fifth Estate

  

Title: Chip Le Grand – The time is really now to take a stand on this stuff (*from 3:36 mins)

(Original broadcast date: July 16, 2025)

Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with Chip Le Grand, Chief Reporter for The Age newspaper, about the articles he has written since the recent arson attack on the East Melbourne Synagogue, the storming of the Israeli restaurant, Miznon, and the arson and graffiti attacks in Greensborough. Chip talks about the implication of these events - and the rise in antisemitism in general - on the local Jewish and non-Jewish communities, and the need for Victoria Police to uphold the law. He also is critical of the campaign against Australia’s Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism, Jillian Segal AO and her report, Special Envoy’s Plan to Combat Antisemitism, a policy-oriented framework for government and the Australian community. Chip argues that the strength of the report lies more in its findings of where the problems lie: in universities, the public broadcasters and the public service.

Title: David Collier – There was something visibly wrong with that image that every single journalist should have had alarm bells ringing (*from 26:14 mins)

(Original broadcast date: August 06, 2025)

Description: Maurice Klein speaks with David Collier,investigative journalist exposing extremism, antisemitism, anti-Zionism, the BBC, media bias and much more.  With his article "The Image Went Viral, The Truth Did Not" David exposed the recent media lies and dishonesty surrounding the photo of an alleged young Palestinian child starving, due to Israel's prosecution of the war with the Hamas Palestinian terrorist Government of Gaza.  David unpacks his article for us which is supported by having direct communication with the mother of the child Mohammed Zakaria Al-Mutawaq, who has been suffering from serious health issues since birth, with the mother simply wanting help for her son. For its propaganda war to demonise Israel, Hamas has been running a false narrative that famine is rampant in Gaza and Israel is starving children, with there being no evidence showing mass famine happening in Gaza.  Mass famine is happening in Africa not in Gaza, the only reason Hamas can get away with the lies of alleged famine, is thanks to the world media being complicit, lying and manipulating the narrative with Hama and  attributing all blame on Israel. David also points out that there is no recorded footage supporting the allegations that Israel has been killing Gazans gathering for all the massive amount of aid that Israel has been allowing into Gaza. To follow and support David Collier's important work go to www.david.collier.com his handle on X and Facebook is: @mishgan. The battle is not just for the Jews and for the Jewish state; the battle is for the survival of Western Civilization.

 

 

Title: Dr Rachael Kohn AO – The West unfortunately cultivates the fiction that the Arabs want a democratic state that has not existed neither in Gaza nor in the territories under the PA (*from 49:52 mins)

(Original broadcast date: June 25, 2025)

Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with Dr Rachael Kohn AO, award-winning presenter and executive producer for more than 26 years of a number of religion-related programs on ABC Radio National, including The Spirit of Things, The Ark, Religion Today and Religion Report, about interfaith dialogue, the threat to democracy posed by religious intolerance and the unreality of the two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Rachael also considers whether this conflict is a religious or geopolitical war.

L'Chaim - To Life Summer Series SU2025 E3 (07-01-2025) with Chip Le Grand, David Collier and Dr Rachael Kohn AO

Jess Wilson MP

A/Prof Les Schreiber

Charlotte Korchak

Goodbye 2025. Hello 2026!

The program is replayed Fridays between 2PM and 3PM on Melbourne’s 3ZZZ 92.3FM

This week’s Summer Series episode is focusing on: It’s Academic!

  

Title: Jess Wilson MP – Our classrooms should not be a place for political activism (*from 3:13 mins)

(Original broadcast date: August 27, 2025)

OmnyStudio Podcast Link:https://omny.fm/shows/lchaim-to-life/jess-wilson-mp-our-classrooms-should-not-be-a-place-for-political-activism

Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with Jess Wilson MP,the member for Kew in the Victorian Legislative Assembly, representing the Liberal Party, about the spate of antisemitic incidents that have taken place in Melbourne over the past 20 months. Jess describes her reaction to the antisemitic verbal abuse suffered by primary school-aged students from Mount Scopus Memorial College when visiting the Melbourne Museum. She also talks about the apparent normalisation of antisemitism in our classrooms, with teachers claiming they have a right or mandate to push a strong, pro-Palestinian viewpoint on students as young as those of kindergarten age, without any repercussions. Jess also talks about the recent revelation that Victoria’s “Respectful Relationships” curriculum has been amended so that children as young as 5-years-old can be taught that ‘their body parts may not match their gender’ and that biologically male students who identify as female are entitled to play sport on girls’ teams. This ignores strong evidence-based criticism from psychiatrists on the introduction at an early age of the idea of being transgender.

Title: A/Prof Les Schreiber – Hate speech has nothing to do with freedom of speech (*from 27:04 mins)

(Original broadcast date: July 02, 2025)

Segment Podcast Link:https://omny.fm/shows/lchaim-to-life/a-prof-les-schreiber-hate-speech-has-nothing-to-do-with-freedom-of-speech

Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with A/Prof Les Schreiber, Associate Professor of medicine at the University of Sydney, about the reasons behind his decision to publicly criticise the recent actions of university students who turned their backs on Jewish students seeking support to stamp out on-campus anti-Semitism and were defending the existence of the Jewish state, as well as the general lack of action by the university’s administration against on-campus antisemitism. This lack of effective action has led to some faculty members leaving the university and has potential students questioning whether attending the University of Sydney is their best option for continuing their studies. Les also condemned the involvement of some faculty members in newsletters that contained virulently anti-Zionist material and called for a single Palestinian state, although the university has now clamped down on this activity. Les also reported on the ‘behind-the-scenes’ activity of the Australian Academic Alliance Against Antisemitism (the 5A group) since its formation in November, 2023.

 

 

Title:  Charlotte Korchak – The Jerusalem Education Institute: focusing on changing the world one-on-one and person-to-person (*from 40:51 mins)

(Original broadcast date: September 10, 2025)

OmnyStudio Podcast Link:https://omny.fm/shows/lchaim-to-life/charlotte-korchak-the-jerusalem-education-institute-focusing-on-changing-the-world-one-on-one-and-person-to-person

Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with Charlotte Korchak, Founder and Senior Educator of the Jerusalem Education Institute (JEI), an organisation dedicated to educating people by providing them with accurate information on Israel, which is needed to fully understand what is happening in the region. The educational philosophy of the JEI is that details have to be presented in a way that stimulates interest and discussion, and this is achieved via the ARM method – Acknowledge/Answer, Reframe and Message. Charlotte describes how the ARM method enables students and educators to respond effectively and in a measured way to criticisms of Israel and Jews in general. This approach is much more likely to lead to a rational discussion than a heated argument. More information on, and links for donations to, the Jerusalem Education Institute can be found at www.jerusalemedu.org.

 

 

Title: AI – Goodbye 2025. Hello 2026!(*from 66:37 mins)

Description: An exclusive release broadcast of a L’Chaim – To Life commissioned AI generated music track from Songer (https://songer.co/) wishing all our listeners a happy 2026.

Jess also talks about the recent revelation that Victoria&rsquo;s &ldquo;Respectful Relationships&rdquo; curriculum has been amended so that children as young as 5-years-old can be taught that &lsquo;their body parts may not match their gender&rsquo; and that biologically male students who identify as female are entitled to play sport on girls&rsquo; teams. This ignores strong evidence-based criticism from psychiatrists on the introduction at an early age of the idea of being transgender.

Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with A/Prof Les Schreiber, Associate Professor of medicine at the University of Sydney, about the reasons behind his decision to publicly criticise the recent actions of university students who turned their backs on Jewish students seeking support to stamp out on-campus anti-Semitism and were defending the existence of the Jewish state, as well as the general lack of action by the university&rsquo;s administration against on-campus antisemitism. This lack of effective action has led to some faculty members leaving the university and has potential students questioning whether attending the University of Sydney is their best option for continuing their studies. Les also condemned the involvement of some faculty members in newsletters that contained virulently anti-Zionist material and called for a single Palestinian state, although the university has now clamped down on this activity. Les also reported on the &lsquo;behind-the-scenes&rsquo; activity of the Australian Academic Alliance Against Antisemitism (the 5A group) since its formation in November, 2023.

Description: Morry Frenkel speaks with Charlotte Korchak, Founder and Senior Educator of the Jerusalem Education Institute (JEI), an organisation dedicated to educating people by providing them with accurate information on Israel, which is needed to fully understand what is happening in the region. The educational philosophy of the JEI is that details have to be presented in a way that stimulates interest and discussion, and this is achieved via the ARM method &ndash; Acknowledge/Answer, Reframe and Message. Charlotte describes how the ARM method enables students and educators to respond effectively and in a measured way to criticisms of Israel and Jews in general. This approach is much more likely to lead to a rational discussion than a heated argument. More information on, and links for donations to, the Jerusalem Education Institute can be found at <a href="http://www.jerusalemedu.org">www.jerusalemedu.org</a>.
