🎙️ Season 1 Finale: Tim Wilson MP — Goldstein, Terror, Teals & Small Business
In our final episode of Season 1, we sit down with Tim Wilson MP, the Federal Member for Goldstein, for a wide-ranging and deeply important conversation.
We begin with the tragic Bondi terror attack, discussing the national mood, community grief, and the growing concern many Australians feel about safety, cohesion, and leadership in moments of crisis.
Tim also reflects on what it was like returning to Parliament after achieving something few thought possible — defeating a Teal independent and reclaiming Goldstein for the Liberal Party. We unpack the public sentiment behind that result and what it signals about the political landscape moving forward.
We finish with Tim’s passion project: small business. From reducing red tape to incentivising growth and rewarding risk-taking, Tim outlines why small businesses are the backbone of the Australian economy — and why they need to be supported, not strangled, by government.
It’s a fitting end to an epic first season — honest, challenging, and hopeful about the future of Australia.
Thank you for joining us for Season 1 of The JJ Podcast. 🎧🇦🇺
🎙️ Episode 25: Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price — The Australian Spirit Is Coming Back to Life
In this powerful episode of The JJ Podcast, we sit down with Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price — one of Australia’s most compelling political voices — to unpack the experiences, values and convictions that shaped her life, her leadership, and her fight for Australia’s future.
Jacinta reflects on her childhood in Alice Springs, the role models and family influence that guided her, and the deep sense of responsibility that pulled her into politics. We dive into the Voice referendum, the passion behind the “NO” campaign, and why she believes that Australians rejected division in favour of unity.
As the Shadow Minister for Government Efficiency, Jacinta saw firsthand the staggering levels of waste and reckless spending inside government — and she shares what she uncovered.
We also talk about the 2025 election campaign, and Jacinta’s frustration that the Liberal Party had a “loaded chamber” of strong policy ideas but never fired the gun. She argues that they had the evidence, the facts and the “ammunition” to call out Labor’s mistruths — but failed to seize the moment.
This episode finishes with an emotional discussion about:
🇦🇺 patriotism
🇦🇺 unity and national pride
🇦🇺 the power of the Australian flag
🇦🇺 why no nation thrives on guilt
Jacinta reminds us that we must learn from our PAST, not live inside it. We must leave behind what harms us, build on what strengthens us, and fight for an Australia where:
Families are supported
Communities are empowered
Facts matter
Our nation comes first
She believes the Australian spirit is coming back to life — and after this conversation, you will too.

🎙️ Episode 24: The Science Behind Net Zero — with Mia Schlicht (IPA)
This week on The JJ Podcast, we sit down with Mia Schlicht, environmental scientist and research fellow at the Institute of Public Affairs. Mia studied atmospheric science and is passionate about challenging political narratives around climate change, CO₂ emissions, land use and the push toward “green energy.”
In this episode, Mia calls out one of the biggest frustrations in Australian politics
“There has been a lack of fact-based debate.”
We break down the science behind net zero, the history of Earth’s changing climate, the truth about agricultural land and emissions, and why renewables are not as ‘green’ or as cheap as we’ve been told. Mia explains how politics, not science, is driving Australia’s energy direction — and why the coalition must begin prosecuting a fact-based case moving forward.
If you care about the environment, energy policy, cost-of-living, agriculture or simply want to hear actual science rather than slogans, this episode is a must-listen. 🌿⚡️

🎙 EPISODE 23 — Jennifer Parker:
Australia’s Defence Reality Check
This week we sit down with one of Australia’s most respected voices in national security — Jennifer Parker, Defence and Marine Security specialist, former Warfare Officer in the Royal Australian Navy, and leading analyst in maritime strategy and Indo-Pacific security.
With over two decades of active service, Jennifer brings real-world experience and sharp strategic insight to the discussion as we explore what it means for Australia to be an island nation in a rapidly shifting global landscape.
In this episode we unpack:
⚓️ The state of Australia’s maritime capability
⚓️ Nuclear submarines + why AUKUS matters
⚓️ Defence spending + tech superiority
⚓️ Cyber warfare + next-generation threats
⚓️ Political influence in defence communication
⚓️ Where we’re strong — and where we’re dangerously vulnerable
This is a conversation every Australian should hear.
Because our security isn’t abstract — it’s national survival.
🎙️ Australia’s Big Immigration Reality — with Daniel Wild (IPA)
In this week’s episode, we’re joined by Daniel Wild, Deputy Executive Director at the Institute of Public Affairs, for a deep dive into Australia’s exploding immigration numbers — the highest in our nation’s history.
We unpack why Australia’s “Big Australia” policy is on steroids, how rapid population growth is affecting housing, infrastructure and social cohesion, and why Daniel argues that our migration intake urgently needs to return to Howard-era levels of around 100,000 per year.
We also break down the truth about foreign student numbers and university dependency on international enrolments. At Sydney University alone, 51% of students are now international, and some classes aren’t even taught in English anymore. Daniel warns that universities have turned into de-facto migration pathways and focus their attention towards INCOME over education. He believes foreign student numbers should be capped at 30% maximum.
We also explore the challenges of integrating large numbers of people with vastly different cultural, social and religious beliefs — and why sustainable, manageable migration is essential for maintaining social cohesion in modern Australia.
If you care about Australia’s future, population policy, education, borders and the social fabric of our country, this is a must-listen.

How Polling Really Works with Dr Dorian von Freyhold
In the world of politics, polls are taken, published and analysed constantly — but how do they actually work? And how much can we trust them?
In this episode, we’re joined by Dr Dorian von Freyhold, Managing Director of Compass Polling and a consumer psychologist with a PhD in understanding human behaviour. We dive into the mechanics behind polling: how researchers find the right mix of people to question, how modern technology is reshaping (and reducing the cost of) polling around the world, and what this means for the future of political insights.
We also take a close look at the current state of Australian politics, exploring where the public really sits on net zero, cost-of-living pressures, the nuclear vs renewables debate, and just how far behind Australia is when it comes to technological innovation compared with the United States.
A fascinating, myth-busting conversation about what Australians are thinking — and why it matters.
🎙️ This week on The JJ Podcast — Jaimee and Jaimie sit down with Kellie Sloane MP, the Member for Vaucluse and Shadow Minister for Health, to unpack one of Australia’s biggest challenges: the state of our healthcare system.

We also dive into the challenges facing the modern Liberal Party — from messaging and mass media to brand identity — and how politics and perception have never been more intertwined.

🎙️ Episode 18 | Evelyn Reeves: From Leftist Activist to Conservative Voice
This week, we sit down with Evelyn Reeves — an American pro-life activist who’s made the rare journey from the political left to the right. We dive deep into why that transition happened and what she’s learned along the way.
Evelyn opens up about her upbringing in a large, conservative, Christian household — where she was homeschooled — and how she found herself deeply involved in progressive activism before her beliefs began to shift. We talk about what ultimately drew her back to the right, the backlash she’s faced (including death threats), and how she’s now building a fast-growing social-media presence sharing her story and sparking debate.
It’s an honest, eye-opening conversation about conviction, courage, and the complexity of changing your mind.
