Hosted by Sam Bamford, a former Australian Army infantry paratrooper and combat veteran with a deployment to Afghanistan in 2012, the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast has evolved into one of Australia’s most outspoken independent platforms.
What began as conversations around resilience and mindset has grown into a podcast that challenges prevailing cultural narratives, questions political orthodoxy, and pushes for a common-sense approach, without apology.
Sam sits down with politicians, veterans, athletes, thinkers, and everyday Australians for long-form, uncensored conversations about what’s really happening in Australia and the West, from politics and national security to masculinity, culture, accountability, and the real-world consequences of bad ideas.
This podcast isn’t designed to make people comfortable.
It’s designed to ask hard questions, demand accountability, and say what others won’t.
If you’re tired of scripted media, safe opinions, and being talked down to, 2 Worlds Collide is for you.
- 159 - Monologue #10 | One Nation Has Hastie, Lambie & The RSL In Full Meltdown
🎙 In this monologue of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I break down the latest attacks on One Nation and why Australian veterans are now being dragged into the political fight. I discuss Andrew Hastie, Jacqui Lambie and the RSL, including Hastie’s claim that an attack on one veteran is an attack on all veterans. But where was that same support when Ben Roberts-Smith was under attack? I also look at One Nation’s Secret Harbour by-election win and why I believe Labor and the Liberals have panicked over One Nation’s growing support and are now increasingly working together against them. Are we watching a coordinated political attack, and are veterans being used as part of it? 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products🤝 Patreon: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 YouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcast #2WorldsCollide #OneNation #AndrewHastie #JacquiLambie #BenRobertsSmith #AustralianVeterans #AustralianPolitics #PaulineHanson
Sat, 12 Sep 2026 - 158 - #123 - George Mamalis (The Adelaide Set) - Is Australia Heading Towards Mass Censorship?
🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down once again with George Mamalis from The Adelaide Set for a wide-ranging conversation about censorship, free speech and the increasingly heated political climate in Australia. We discuss the current Labor Government and the growing debate around new laws and proposals that could impact what Australians can say, see and access online, and whether Australia is heading towards greater government control over political speech and online content. We also break down the political battle surrounding One Nation, the rhetoric being directed towards the party and its supporters, and concerns about calls to restrict or ban political parties. With One Nation continuing to challenge the traditional major parties, we discuss whether attempts to marginalise political movements could ultimately have the opposite effect. George and I also look at the broader political climate, the role of the media, the increasingly hostile language being used against political opponents and what all of this could mean for democracy and free political debate in Australia. No scripts, no spin. Just a conversation about where Australia is heading and what Australians should be paying attention to. 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: 2 Worlds Collide website🤝 Join Patreon: 2 Worlds Collide Patreon 📺 Stay ConnectedYouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: 2 Worlds Collide #2WorldsCollide #GeorgeMamalis #TheAdelaideSet #AustralianPolitics #OneNation #PaulineHanson #Censorship #FreeSpeech #AustralianLabor #AnthonyAlbanese #AustralianGovernment #AustralianMedia #IndependentMedia #Australia #PoliticalPodcast
Thu, 10 Sep 2026 - 157 - Monologue #9 | Labor’s War On One Nation Is Getting Dangerous
🎙 In this Monologue, I break down Labor’s escalating attacks on One Nation and the increasingly aggressive language being used against political opponents. When politicians and the media continually use extreme labels and rhetoric, at what point does that language risk inciting real-world hostility and violence? I then discuss the latest push to target the so-called “manosphere” and why I believe this is another attempt to justify greater censorship and control over what Australians can see, say and discuss online. Finally, I look at comedian Dave Hughes calling out the Australia Institute and the broader debate around political influence, commentary and the organisations helping shape the national conversation. No scripts, no spin. Just my thoughts on what's happening in Australia right now. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🇦🇺 Labor’s attacks on One Nation🗣️ The language being used against political opponents🚨 When political rhetoric risks fuelling hostility📱 The “manosphere” becoming the next target🚫 Censorship and greater control of online speech🎙️ Dave Hughes calling out the Australia Institute📢 Media, politics and influence in Australia🇦🇺 The direction Australia is heading 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products🤝 Join Patreon: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay ConnectedYouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation#2WorldsCollide #Monologue #AustralianPolitics #OneNation #Labor #Censorship #FreeSpeech #Manosphere #DaveHughes #AustraliaInstitute #AustralianMedia #Australia

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Scott Challen for a conversation about where Australia is headed and why more Australians are becoming concerned about the direction of the country. We discuss the attacks from the socialist side of politics on those pushing common-sense views, Australia’s natural resources sector and why our resources are so important to the nation’s future. We also get into mass immigration, the upcoming rallies across Australia, and the importance of The Australian Lobby Group in giving everyday Australians a stronger voice and pushing for real political change. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover: 🇦🇺 Where Australia is headed⚔️ The attack on common-sense politics⛏️ Australia’s natural resources sector🌏 Mass immigration & population growth📢 The upcoming rallies against mass immigration🤝 The Australian Lobby Group & why it matters🇦🇺 What needs to change in Australia 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: 2 Worlds Collide website🤝 Join Patreon: 2 Worlds Collide Patreon 📺 Stay ConnectedYouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: 2worldscollide.com.au #2WorldsCollide #ScottChallen #AustralianPolitics #AustraliaFirst #AustralianLobbyGroup #MassImmigration #AustralianResources #AustralianNews #IndependentMedia
Fri, 04 Sep 2026 - 155 - #121 - Andre Mamet - The Media Tried To Destroy Him For Putting Australia First
🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Andre Mamet, a young Australian nationalist and patriot who has found himself at the centre of intense media scrutiny over his political views and involvement in Australian politics. Andre has recently been the subject of coverage from major Australian media outlets, including the Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and the ABC. In this conversation, Andre responds to that coverage directly and explains why he believes his views have been misrepresented and associated with ideologies he says he does not hold. We discuss what Andre actually means when he talks about Australian nationalism, why he believes putting Australia and Australians first should not automatically be treated as something extreme, and the line between legitimate scrutiny of political figures and guilt by association. We also get into the media's coverage of One Nation and its supporters, the use of labels such as "far-right" and "extremist" in Australian political debate, immigration and national identity, and whether young Australians with nationalist or conservative political views are being discouraged from participating openly in politics. Whatever your politics, Andre deserves the opportunity to explain his own beliefs in his own words rather than having others define them for him. 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: 2 Worlds Collide website🤝 Join Patreon: 2 Worlds Collide Patreon 📺 Stay ConnectedYouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: 2worldscollide.com.au #2WorldsCollide #AndreMamet #AustralianPolitics #AustraliaFirst #AustralianNationalism #OneNation #AnthonyAlbanese #AustralianMedia #ABC #SydneyMorningHerald #TheAge #FreeSpeech #Immigration #AustralianCulture #AustralianNews #IndependentMedia #CurrentAffairs #PoliticalPodcast
Wed, 02 Sep 2026 - 154 - Monologue #8 | Ben Roberts-Smith Hunted Their Murderer... Now The Government Is Coming After Him
🎙 In this Monologue, I reflect on the 14th anniversary of the murder of three Australian soldiers in Afghanistan and the disgraceful reality that Hekmatullah is a free man, while our own Afghanistan veterans continue to face investigations and prosecutions. I then break down the hypocrisy surrounding the Sydney Swans situation and the trial by media before the full facts are even known, while other horrific attacks in Melbourne receive nowhere near the same outrage. Finally, I discuss what I believe is Albanese's coordinated attack on Christianity, Western society and the values Australia was built on. No scripts, no spin. Just my thoughts on what's happening in Australia right now. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🇦🇺 14 years since our three soldiers were murdered🎖️ Hekmatullah, Afghanistan and our veterans🏉 The Sydney Swans and trial by media📢 AFL, media and political hypocrisy🚨 Violent crime and selective outrage✝️ Albanese, Christianity and Western society🇦🇺 The direction Australia is heading 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products🤝 Join Patreon: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay ConnectedYouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation#2WorldsCollide #Monologue #AustralianPolitics #Afghanistan #AustralianVeterans #SydneySwans #AFL #AnthonyAlbanese #Christianity #AustralianMedia #Australia

We discuss the influence of politics and ideology in education, what Australian children are being exposed to in schools, and whether parents are losing a say in the values being taught to the next generation. We also get into immigration and population growth, housing and cost-of-living pressures, the direction Anthony Albanese and Labor are taking the country, government spending and control, and why Edward believes Australians need to understand the lessons of socialism before we repeat the mistakes seen elsewhere.

Ben breaks down the pressures farmers are facing, concerns around government regulation and land acquisition, and why Farmers Fightback is pushing back against policies they believe threaten farms, livelihoods and the future of Australian agriculture. We also discuss why farmers feel they're being ignored and silenced, the importance of protecting productive farmland, Australia's food security, and what happens if governments continue making life harder for the people responsible for putting food on Australian tables. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🚜 The battle facing Victorian farmers🏛️ Farmers Fightback and the Victorian Government🌾 The pressures being placed on Australian farms🏡 Land acquisition and property rights🗣️ Why farmers believe they're being silenced📜 Government regulation and its impact on farming🥩 Australia's food security🔥 Why Victorian farmers are fighting back🇦🇺 The future of Australian farming 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: 2 Worlds Collide website🤝 Join Patreon: 2 Worlds Collide Patreon 📺 Stay ConnectedYouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: 2 Worlds Collide #2WorldsCollide #BenDuxson #FarmersFightback #AustralianFarmers #VictorianFarmers #Farmers #Victoria #VictorianGovernment #AustralianAgriculture #FarmingAustralia #FoodSecurity #PropertyRights #AustralianPolitics #Australia #IndependentMedia #AustraliaFirst #CurrentAffairs #PoliticalPodcast

George has spent years involved in Australian politics and independent media, and in this episode we break down why more Australians are turning away from the traditional major parties, where the political momentum is shifting, and whether One Nation's surge represents a fundamental realignment of Australian politics. We also discuss what could happen at the upcoming Victorian and NSW elections, the growing frustration with Labor and the Coalition, changing voter sentiment, and what Australia's political landscape could look like heading towards the next federal election.

Wed, 03 Jun 2026 - 130 - #102 - Dr Joanna Howe - Pro-Life Laws, Immigration & The Future of Australia
(At the request of Joanna and James, I removed two short 5-second clips from this episode.

This wasn’t a safe or scripted conversation. There were disagreements, challenging moments, and tough exchanges — but that’s the point. If Australians can’t openly debate difficult issues and still shake hands at the end, then we risk becoming a society driven by cancellation instead of conversation. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🇦🇺 Joanna Howe’s pro-life bill⚖️ Abortion laws in South Australia🌏 Immigration & national identity🧠 “What is an Australian?”🔥 Heated debate & difficult conversations📰 Cancel culture & public pressure💬 The importance of open discussion 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/cat...🤝 Join Patreon: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-p... 📺 Stay ConnectedYouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation#2WorldsCollide #JoannaHowe #AustralianPolitics #Immigration #NationalIdentity #ProLife #FreeSpeech #AustralianPodcast #IndependentMedia

We also break down the current conflict overseas, the impact it’s having globally, and how it ties into Australia’s fuel situation, cost of living pressures, and long-term economic outlook.

This is a raw and honest conversation about the challenges facing the country right now — and the bigger questions many people are starting to ask. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🇦🇺 Gerard Rennick and his role in Australian politics🏛 The two-party system and political divide🌍 Global conflict and its impact on Australia⛽ The fuel situation and energy security📉 Cost of living pressures and economic outlook🇦🇺 Where Australia is headed from here 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch:https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products🤝 Join Patreon:https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay ConnectedYouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation#GerardRennick #2WorldsCollide #AustralianPolitics #FuelCrisis #TwoPartySystem #CostOfLiving #EnergySecurity #PoliticalPodcast

Drew Pavlou and Will Mitchell go back and forth on foreign influence and lobbying within Australian politics, the complexities of the Israel–Iran conflict, the meaning and implications of Zionism, and what it truly means to put “Australia First.” In this episode, we step away from one-sided narratives and allow both perspectives to be heard — challenging ideas, questioning assumptions, and diving into the conversations many people are thinking about but not openly having.

Her work and advocacy have placed her at the centre of some of the biggest debates currently taking place in Australian politics.

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Jeremy Van Akerlaken — better known online as Clown Repellent — for a raw, unfiltered conversation about culture, politics, free speech, and the issues many people feel are being ignored by mainstream media. Jeremy has built a large following online by doing something simple but increasingly rare: saying exactly what he thinks.

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Cory Bernardi — former Australian Senator and current lead One Nation candidate for South Australia’s Legislative Council in the upcoming state election — for a direct and wide-ranging conversation about the future of Australia, the failures of modern politics, and the growing disconnect between government and everyday Australians. Cory spent over a decade representing South Australia in the Federal Senate and became one of the most outspoken voices in Australian politics. During his time in Parliament he challenged the political establishment on issues including government spending, national sovereignty, cultural change, energy policy and the direction of the country. After leaving the Liberal Party and founding the Australian Conservatives, Cory has now returned to the political arena as the lead One Nation candidate for the South Australian Legislative Council, running in the upcoming state election. In this episode we break down the political landscape in Australia today — from the cost-of-living crisis and immigration policy to energy, national security, and the role of media in shaping public debate.

Sun, 08 Mar 2026 - 111 - #83 - Amos Gill - Politics Is a Joke (But Also Not)
🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Amos Gill — one of Australia’s funniest and most globally recognised comedians — for a wide-ranging, hilarious, and thought-provoking conversation about life, geopolitics, culture, and the absurdity of modern existence. Amos has built a remarkable career from Adelaide to the world stage — starting as a runner-up in triple j’s RAW Comedy Competition and going on to host major radio shows, sell-out stand-up tours across Australia, the UK, and the USA, and open for comedy heavyweights like Jim Jefferies. In this episode we dig into the realities of living between Australia and America, how comedy intersects with serious issues, and why laughing at the chaos of politics, war, and culture can sometimes teach us more than the news ever will. We also unpack topics including freedom of speech, cancel culture, the war in Ukraine and Afghanistan, life on the road, and the stark differences between Aussie and American life — all delivered with Amos’s signature sharp wit. This isn’t just another comedy chat.It’s an honest, clever ride into the funny — and the serious — with one of the brightest comic minds going. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:😂 How comedy intersects with real-world issues🇦🇺🇺🇸 Life between Australia and the USA🎤 Freedom of speech and cultural tension⚔️ War, politics and modern conflict commentary📺 Cancel culture and social media censorship🎭 Behind the scenes of touring and performing globally 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products🤝 Join Patreon: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay Connected:YouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation:#AmosGill #2WorldsCollide #ComedyPodcast #StandUpComedy #FreeSpeech #CancelCulture #Geopolitics #WarAndComedy #AussieInUSA #JimJefferiesPodcast

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Senator Alex Antic for a direct, unfiltered conversation on free speech, government oversight, and the growing political tension shaping Australia’s future. Alex is one of the most outspoken voices in federal parliament when it comes to civil liberties, and in this episode we dig into why free speech is being narrowed, how government power has expanded with little scrutiny, and what that means for everyday Australians. We also unpack the left’s growing fear of a political shift to the right, the backlash against dissenting voices, and why open debate is increasingly being treated as a threat rather than a foundation of democracy. From there, we dive into foreign lobbying and influence, how it operates inside Australian politics, and why transparency and accountability matter more now than ever. This isn’t party talking points.It isn’t political theatre. It’s a serious conversation about power, control, and the consequences of silencing disagreement. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🗣️ Free speech and the limits being imposed on public debate🏛️ Government oversight and unchecked power⚖️ The political left and fear of a rightward shift🌍 Foreign lobbying and external influence in Australian politics🇦🇺 Democracy, dissent, and national sovereignty🔍 Why transparency and accountability still matter 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products🤝 Join Patreon: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay Connected:YouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation:#AlexAntic #2WorldsCollide #FreeSpeech #GovernmentOversight #ForeignInfluence #AustralianPolitics #CivilLiberties #Accountability #CommonSense

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Ben Duxson, a farmer from rural Victoria, for a raw, unfiltered conversation on land, livelihoods, and the growing conflict between government policy and the people who feed the country. Ben is part of Farmers Fightback, a grassroots organisation pushing back against government policies that farmers say are threatening productive farmland in the name of the green energy agenda. We unpack what’s happening on the ground — land acquisition pressures, renewable energy projects being forced into rural communities, and why farmers feel ignored, overridden, and sacrificed for political targets made far away from the paddock. We also talk about the bigger picture: food security, rising costs, generational farming families under threat, and what happens when ideology replaces common sense. 👉 Follow and support Farmers Fightback — they’re on the front line of this fight: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/1Ey14VuAep/?mibextid=wwXIfr Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wallaloogregredistrict TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wallaloo.gre.gre Website: https://farmersfightback.com This isn’t activism theatre.It isn’t political spin.

Thu, 26 Feb 2026 - 108 - #80 - Senator Barnaby Joyce - When Government Decisions Hit Home
🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Barnaby Joyce for a wide-ranging, unfiltered conversation on service, responsibility, and the growing crises facing everyday Australians. Barnaby comes from a proud military family, and we begin by unpacking that history — what service, sacrifice, and duty have meant across generations, and how those values have shaped his view of leadership and country. From there, we dive head-first into the cost-of-goverment crisis, the pressure on Australian families, and how government decisions have contributed to the economic strain people are feeling right now. We also break down the energy crisis — soaring power prices, energy security, net-zero policy impacts, and why Australians are paying more while getting less certainty about the future. This isn’t a rehearsed political appearance.It isn’t soundbites or spin. It’s a direct conversation about accountability, consequences, and what happens when governments lose touch with the people they’re meant to serve. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🎖️ Barnaby’s family military history and service💰 The real cost-of-living pressures on Australians⚡ Australia’s energy crisis and rising power bills🏛️ Government decision-making and long-term consequences🇦🇺 Responsibility, leadership, and national priorities🗣️ Speaking plainly in a political culture built on avoidance 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products🤝 Join Patreon: www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay Connected:YouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation:#BarnabyJoyce #2WorldsCollide #AustralianPolitics #CostOfLivingCrisis #EnergyCrisis #MilitaryService #GovernmentAccountability #IndependentVoices #CommonSense

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Charlie Bakhos for a deep, unfiltered conversation on faith, conflict, and the narratives shaping what the world sees and what it ignores. Charlie is a man of faith and commentator who isn’t afraid to speak openly about uncomfortable truths. In this episode, we unpack the Israel–Palestine conflict, the way it’s framed in mainstream media, and why certain realities are either distorted or completely left out of the conversation. We also dive into a topic rarely spoken about: the persecution of Christians around the world, why it receives little media attention, who it affects, and what’s actually happening beyond the headlines. At the centre of it all is Charlie’s faith, how it shapes his worldview, why he refuses to stay silent, and what it means to stand firm when holding these views comes at a cost. This episode isn’t safe.It isn’t sanitised. It’s an honest conversation about truth, belief, and the courage to speak when silence is easier. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🇮🇱🇵🇸 The Israel–Palestine situation beyond the headlines📰 Media narratives and selective outrage✝️ Why Christian persecution is rarely discussed🌍 What’s happening to Christians globally🙏 Charlie’s faith and why it matters now more than ever⚖️ Speaking truth in a world that rewards conformity 📌 Timestamps for Easy Navigation:0:00 – Intro06:45 – Charlie’s background & faith journey18:30 – Israel–Palestine: context vs media framing37:10 – Global Christian persecution55:40 – Faith, backlash, and standing firm1:12:00 – Final reflections 💥 Support independent voices🧢 Merch: www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products🤝 Join Patreon: www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay Connected:YouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation:#CharlieBakhos #2WorldsCollide #FaithAndTruth #IsraelPalestine #ChristianPersecution #IndependentVoices #MediaNarratives #FreeSpeech #FaithInPublic

Anthony runs one of the most effective independent news and media organisations in the country and is, in my view, one of the best in his field. He’s been on the front line of accountability and knows firsthand what happens when you challenge the narrative. We break down the Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism Bill 2026 currently being pushed through Parliament — what it really means, why so many Australians are alarmed by it, and why it deserves to be completely scrapped and thrown through the shredder. Anthony also speaks openly about his time spent in a supermax prison after attempting to organise rallies during the COVID era, and what that experience revealed about dissent in modern Australia.

Known for his massive social media following and viral content, Jackson opens up about his rise on social media, the pressures that come with influence, and why he wanted to show a different side of himself in a long-form setting.

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Chris Kateris — better known as Big Chocky — for one of the most raw and confronting conversations we’ve had on the show. At a time when speaking honestly comes at a cost, Chris speaks openly about the Bondi incident, the moral failure of the Australian government, and what he sees as a growing attack on men in modern Australian society.

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Matt Canavan — Federal Senator, former Resources Minister, and one of the most outspoken critics of net zero, energy insanity, and Canberra groupthink. Matt doesn’t tiptoe around the issues. He says what most politicians won’t — and in this conversation, we go straight at some of the biggest and most uncomfortable topics facing Australia right now.

This week on the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I’m doing something different. Instead of hosting, I jumped on someone else’s show — and I sat down with Brodie Buchal, host of the Brodie Buchal Podcast (YouTube: @BrodieJamesBuchal) for a no-filter conversation about my military career, what’s gone wrong in Australia, and the war on masculinity happening right under our noses. Brodie gave me the space to go deep — from Afghanistan to politics, national identity, accountability, the cost-of-government crisis, and why young men are struggling to find purpose in a culture obsessed with weakening them. It was real, honest, and one of the most personal conversations I’ve done on camera.

Sun, 07 Dec 2025 - 95 - #67 - Carlos Quaremba - One Nation’s Fight to Fix South Australia
🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Carlos Quaremba — Victor Harbor councillor, One Nation’s SA State President, and now the party’s lead candidate for the 2026 South Australian Legislative Council election. Carlos has been making waves for calling out government incompetence, exposing the cost-of-living crisis, and taking a wrecking ball to net zero policies that are punishing everyday South Australians. He’s unapologetic, direct, and one of the few voices in South Australian politics willing to stand up for working people instead of donors, bureaucrats, and global agendas. In this raw and unfiltered conversation, we dig into the real issues facing South Australia — housing, power bills, debt, immigration, local government, and why both major parties have abandoned the average Australian. Carlos doesn’t mince words, and after hearing this, you’ll understand why Pauline Hanson called him a leader who “won’t drop an issue until he gets answers.” This one is about accountability, truth, and taking back the state from the political class who’ve run it into the ground. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:💸 Why South Australians are being crushed under cost-of-living pressures🏠 The housing crisis and how policy failure got us here⚡ How net zero ideology is driving up power bills🏛 The decay inside local government — and how to fix it🇦🇺 Why Carlos believes it’s “time for One Nation in South Australia”🗳 What 2026 means — and what’s really at stake for the state 💥 Want to support independent voices?🧢 Grab merch: www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products 🤝 Join Patreon: www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay Updated:YouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the convo at#CarlosQuaremba #OneNationSA #2WorldsCollide #TruthMatters #SouthAustraliaPolitics #CostOfLivingCrisis #NetZeroDebate #HousingCrisisSA #PoliticalAccountability #AussiePodcast #AustraliaFirst #StandForTruth

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Edward Schuller — National Secretary of the Teachers’ Professional Association of Australia (TPAA), reformer, and one of the few voices in education willing to challenge the system from the inside. Edward has made waves for standing up to bureaucratic control, calling out ideology creeping into classrooms, and fighting to give teachers and parents their voice back. He’s not afraid to take on the establishment — from teachers’ unions and government departments to the cultural agendas shaping what our kids are taught. In this honest and unfiltered conversation, we dig into the state of Australia’s education system — what’s really happening behind the staffroom door — and how ideology, policy failure, and top-down control are reshaping the next generation. This one goes beyond education — it’s about truth, integrity, and protecting the minds of tomorrow. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🎓 Why Edward believes the education system is failing both teachers and students📚 How ideology and bureaucracy are taking over the classroom💡 The importance of critical thinking and restoring balance in education🔒 The culture of fear, censorship, and silence inside teaching🇦🇺 What needs to change if we want Australian kids to grow up free-thinking and independent 💥 Want to support truth-telling voices?🧢 Grab merch: www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products 🤝 Or join Patreon: www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay Updated:YouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the convo at#EdwardSchuller #2WorldsCollide #TruthMatters #EducationReform #TeachersVoice #FreeSpeech #AustralianEducation #CommonSense #AussiePodcast #ParentRights #ProtectOurKids #StandForTruth

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Senator Malcolm Roberts — One Nation Senator, straight-talker, and one of the few politicians in Canberra willing to call out the lies, hypocrisy, and corruption eating away at Australia’s democracy. Malcolm has built a reputation for saying what others won’t — challenging the mainstream narratives around government overreach, climate policy, global agendas, censorship, and the slow erosion of Australian sovereignty. He’s been slammed, censored, and misrepresented — but he’s never backed down. In this raw and unfiltered conversation, we cut through the political spin and talk about what’s really going on — from the cost-of-living crisis and foreign influence, to climate control, digital IDs, and the growing disconnect between the people and their so-called leaders.

Angie has been on the front line of the cultural battle to protect women’s spaces, women’s sport, and women’s safety — and she hasn’t backed down, no matter the pressure. In this powerful and unapologetic conversation, we dive into the growing clash between biological reality and radical ideology, why politicians are too afraid to speak up, and what’s really at stake for women and girls in Australia.

Rennick has never been one to toe the party line. In this raw and wide-ranging conversation, we unpack his split from the Liberal Party, how big business and global corporates dodge tax, and why the People’s First Party is pushing for bold economic reform. From monetary policy to government debt, from sovereignty to power, this conversation cuts through the noise. It’s straight talk about how we rebuild Australia into a strong, independent powerhouse — and why the current political game isn’t working. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover:🇦🇺 Why Gerard walked away from the Liberal Party🏦 How big business dodges tax while everyday Aussies carry the load💰 Reforming government debt & monetary policy to restore national strength⚔️ The state of Australian politics — and why the system is broken🚀 How People’s First Party plans to put Australians first again 💥 Want to support truth-telling voices?🧢 Grab merch: www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products 🤝 Or join Patreon: www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay Updated:YouTube: @2worldscollideInstagram: @2worldscollidepodcastX: @2worldsPodcastWebsite: www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the convo at #GerardRennick #2WorldsCollide #PeoplesFirstParty #AustralianPolitics #MonetaryPolicy #PoliticalReform #UncensoredTalk #TruthMatters #TaxReform #AustraliaFirst

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Professor Ian Plimer — an emeritus geologist, author, and one of Australia’s most courageous critics of mainstream climate orthodoxy. Plimer has spent decades studying Earth’s climate history, dissecting the assumptions behind carbon models, and challenging the narratives you won’t see in the papers.
