The Two Jacks look at the coming year and offer some predictions on the Australian federal election, what might happen with a second Trump presidency, where Europe is headed and is it possible the New Year will usher in a period of peace in the Middle East? In sport, the Test World Championship beckons. Will Australia defend its title and what of the powerhouse of world cricket, India?

In this episode we continue the process of unravelling RFK Jr.'s worm riddled brain. We continue to tear apart his absurd tweet which claims the FDA is waging war on things like 'exercise' and 'sunlight' and look further into the implications of his role in the Trump administration - if he actually gets confirmed.
As usual, the CRP10 coupon code still works at cbco.beer and apologies for this one coming out late - a bit of covid and a lot of day drinking has prevented me from editing and publishing it.
Enjoy!

I took so long to upload this - mostly because of covid but also self indulgence. Had a good chat with Dave about cookers.
Just as a side note - I am going to get vaccinated around November from here onward. Covid goes mental during silly season. I prefer novavax because it has zero side effects for me (I am not a doctor this is not medical advice) but if we all jab up in October or so, we might not have to destroy christmas on a regular basis. My last jab was last year and covid last week SUCKED.
Episode is of course brought to you by CBCo but since recording they have sent me beers so my lack of beers are now lies. We love CBCo. CRP10 code still works. Buy their beer - it makes us look good, but it's also really good beer. I maintain their IPA is one of the best WCIPAs in the country and CHEAP!
The audio edit is a bit janky because it's done by AI but it's fine. I'm tired. Enjoy the episode!
Oh and a patron had an issue finding the SP group so here's a facebook like that might work.
PS the myplace song is at the end and I have not listened to it cause it's awful

So descript are offering AI shownotes which is amazing cause I hate writing them. Good lord - timestamps!

The Two Jacks final episode for the year with Christmas on the way, includes the Two Jacks' book selections just before Santa slides down the chimney.

Listeners! This week Jack is off trying to find himself in New Zealand. Something something Kia Ora. I tried to find someone to do this with but I put that in the too hard basket and recorded this one solo.
So yeah, it's just me this week.
So we - the royal we - look at Bovaer - the latest cooker outrage over a cattle feed supplement which lowers methane emissions. Don't eat it though. Especially if you are a rat.
And we - again, actually just me - look at the recent interlocutory hearing to kick off the vaccine injury class action headed up by Dr. Melissa McCann. It's going really badly. Which is a bit sad, in a way - cause a few people in the class probably deserve a payout.
By the time I started this, I had several standard drinks. Podcasting is so much harder on your own!
Hope ya like it. Jacks' back soon!
Enjoy.

The Two Jacks discuss two appeals - one filed, one pending both dealing with a recent murder, the other an horrific crime from the 1980s. What chance will these convicted murderers have of having their cases examined again?
Meanwhile inflation and the cost of living pressures in Australia are set to remain high on forecasts with the Reserve Bank unlikely to drop interest rates before the next election.
How will the Trade War between China and the US affect Australia? Badly, the Two Jacks suggest.
In sport, we review the Perth Test. Let's not forget that India are very good and Bumrah is the best fast bowler in the world. The dominance is set to continue in this series and into the foreseeable future.
-
The Two Jack's report on vandalism in eastern Sydney with an anti-Semitic bent while in Melbourne a nightclub is subject to arson, an indicator of organised crime's turf wars.
We examine the government's (with Opposition support) bill to prohibit kids under 16 from accessing social media. JTI believes this is not a winner for the government and will only increase talk of government overreach.
In India, Gautam Adani is indicted for financial crimes hy the US Dept of Justice.
In sport, Australia and India prepare to lock horns in the first of five Test series.
-
Apologies for the radio silence - besides licking my financial wounds and feeling like an absolute prat for getting my election prediction SO HORRIBLY WRONG it has been hard to find the time and energy to get behind the mic. Hey, at least I'm not that Ann Seltzer lady.
This episode also sounds like shit cause I recorded in a large room and did an AI edit. Damnit, you'll get what you get until law exams are done!
This episiode we are having a good look at the plans of RFK Jr. who you all know is going to Make America Healthy Again. Well, is he?
It's gonna be interesting. My inner cooker is fascinated to see how this goes, but as per usual the very positive things like removing toxic dyes from American food are completely counterbalanced by the fact that the person who plans to do it is a complete idiot.
Law school ends this week. The future is bright! Plan some road trips, listeners, cause you're getting content for Christmas!
Much love and I hope you enjoy!

The Two Jacks discuss the Albanese government's decision to prevent kids under 16 from accessing social media as well as the Misinformation and Disinformation (MAD) bill. The view from the two Jacks is that this is not a role for government and may end up becoming a vote loser for the government. The Two Jacks look at Trump's cabinet nominations thus far. Matt Gaetz and RFK Jr round off some very ordinary choices. Will they survive the scrutiny of the US senate? In sport, rugby beats cricket for ratings as the Wallabies are back!
-
The Two Jacks post US presidential election special. The Donald is back. How did it happen and why did the Dems and Harris fail?
-
Elon Musk takes a hit after a fairly average product launch but spoiler alert - there's no justice in the world.
Speaking of justice, the department of in the US might have a word with Elon due to his silly million dollar giveaway to get punters to register and vote for Trump.Will he get in trouble? Probably not.
Monica encourages parents to encourage children to go into toilets and film other kids...
...
...
Wow.
And we talk shit about the US general election where it's apparently close. Maybe it is. Feels like something is amiss.
Oh, Babet has half a brain.
Enjoy!
-
The Two Jacks look at some of the US presidential election polling. JTI walks through one poll and shows the reasons why it is not reliable. It's not skewed one way or another. It's just bad polling.
In Iran, a special forces commander has a heart attack while under interrogation as suspicions within the regime grow on collusion with Israel.
Sir Keir Starmer shoots himself in the foot again while in sport, a NSW cricket prodigy emerges.

Listeners! This week we are doing another newsy roundup with Trump sending covid testing machines to Putin so his buddy doesn't get sick and a little spot of custodial bother for a Victorian nazi who did a cheeky salute to test the new laws. Spoiler alert - they seem to work.
In other news, we look at rallies. Mostly cooker ones. But we look at some laws around flags that don't really work. And probably shouldn't.
The libertarians get angry at cookers for having a rally without a permit and Crackers Kelly attempts to create an actionable 'defamation by proxy' when cookers taunt him at their free speech rally. Irony meter broken here.
In SovCits we explore the law on driving, sorry travelling, without headlights. I don't want to spoil it but I think you know the answer.
And Pete? Well, has he been funny this entire year? Not really. But Babet is hilarious. The tail end is (finally) getting updated.
Enjoy!

CBCo are still sending me beer which means you need to keep buying them. But why the hell wouldn't you - they gave us a discount code! Use CRP10 at checkout to get 10% off their excellent beers.

The Two Jacks discuss the Pro-Palestinian rallies in Melbourne and Sydney. Laws extended to prohibit or restrict peaceful protests are a bridge too far in Australia. No one has to agree with them and some may find it offensive but it is part and parcel of living in a democracy. HK Jack would like a ban on mask wearing during protests but knows enforcement would be near impossible.
The south east of the US hunkers down for yet another hurricane coming its way, the second Cat 5 hurricane in October which is virtually unheard of.
While Trump has sought to polticise the response, JTI runs through the limits of FEMA's support, homeless Americans are specifically excluded from FEMA assistance and many residents in the large area are now finding they cannot be insured.
In the UK, the Starmer government appears like it is not ready to govern.
The Arab world sends mixed messages on Israel's incursion into Lebanon.
In sport, the battle lines are now drawn between the FA and Man City while Penright celebrate their fourth NRL premiership in as many years.
-
In breaking news, politicians have gone nuts demanding protesters who flew Hezbollah flags be charged with criminal offences. Hezbollah is a proscribed terrorist organisation but what does the law say about toting the infamous green and gold flag with an AK-47 on it. Politicians have sent the cops in but the likelihood of any convictions is not as obvious as many believe.
The Israeli cabinet approves the IDF to begin a "limited' ground incursion in southern Lebanon. History tells us the IDF will not want to get bogged down.
Sri Lanka has a new president who is promising to revive the island nation's economy while Austria shifts furth to the hard right.
In sport, the NRL grand final is upon us.
-
The Greens demand the government interfere with the independence of the the Reserve Bank and drop interest rates. HK Jack says it is legally possible but JTI says it is perhaps the Greens dumbest idea yet. Monetary policy should not be a political plaything.
In other news, the prospect of a ceasefire in Gaza diminishes to virtually nothing.
It's a huge week in sport. The biggest day of the AFL calendar is upon us and the Swans and the Lions face off. We will cheer on the Swans but we know just how good Brisbane can be. It's preliminary final week in the NRL with the two best sides in the comp - Melbourne and Penrith likely to make it to the grand final.
-
Listeners! This week we do a classic newsy segmenty episode where we kick off with a chat about pandemic management - former NSW police commissioner Mick Fuller looks back on how the pandemic may have been handled a little better. It was far from perfect. Did we learn any lessons though? Probably not.
We also look at the costs calamity facing Monica Smit, who kinda won her court case but still needs to pay costs to the state. Why? We have a crack at explaining the Calderbank rule.
In AV Update we look at Rob Schneider being a massive dickhead - aaaand
In SovCits we have a true FAFO moment where a free woman on the land discovers that magic words don't make kidnapping legal. Oh dear!
Pete is boring as hell and probably getting axed. Come on Pete! But he was in New Idea for some reason so we ran with that.
Enjoy!

Polling a week after the debate shows Kamala enjoyed a bounce.
In Australia, the AFP drive a wrecking ball through organised crime with a superb investigation.
In the UK the NHS, a public health system that was once the envy of the world is in disarray, requiring urgent attention from the Starmer government.
In sport, Man City's hearing begins in a veil of secrecy.
-
The Two Jacks analyse the debate. Harris clearly won and has got a boost in the polls but will it be sustained? Polling in many battleground states polling shows it neck and neck.
JTI thinks it will come down to Pennsylvania and if it stays blue, Harris will win the presidency.
In other news, the media's obsession with a hung parliament as a likely outcome of the next election is explored. JTI believes it unlikely while HK Jack points to polling showing two Teals looking at losing their seats but thinks a Coalition forming the next government is a fantasy.
JTI talks about his recent trip to the UK and how London's cars are pretty all much elejtric. In sport, it's finals time.

Good friend of the podcast Dave has been keeping an eye on a few things. While most cookerwatchers point and laugh from the sidelines (this is fair, they are very funny) Dave gets right into the thick of it - and helps keep an eye on when cookers cross over the funny/dangerous line.
If you don't already know him, he's an environmental activist from way back and knows almost bloody everyone in the movement. Unfortunately, some of these people have become rather sympathetic to cookers and have enabled their rather terrifying takeover of various LGAs, including his own in Cessnock.
Dave explains how the cookers took over council and we discuss what we should expect from the first ACTUAL COOKER MAYOR!
It's shit. Joel Jammal is involved. It's all so utterly cooked. But look on the bright side - these people can't even behave themselves at christmas lunch so the chance of them not getting sacked is minimal. Time will tell.
Also, MyPlace attempt to make an important documentary on a serious topic and just end up completely screwing it up. Won't post spoilers - but let's say cookers are an easy target for a con artist.
AND
FERGUS THE CAT which is very very funny. We also look back to one of Dave's first interactions with cookers in public. Not just cookers but the supermarket pest variety. Oh man, it's quite pathetic.
Jack's back and we will be in business soon - I am sending him smelling salts and meth to get him back in the swing of things.
Thanks for sticking around guys! Love yas!
