SpinProof - #auspol

ABC's Atlas Network investigation - text to AI voice version.

The ABC's Gareth Hutchens recently produced an excellent investigative piece on The Atlas Network titled: "How the Atlas Network is shaping your life, even if you've never heard of it." Every Australian should know about The Atlas Network and their associated think tanks - as they've influenced the decisions of Governments - and therefore our lives - for decades. This podcast is a voice to AI text replication of that investigative piece - produced with the aim of making the important information highlighted more accessible to more Australians so we can be aware of the negative role they play on our economy, our climate and more. Please see Gareth Hutchen's excellent investigation into the Atlas Network on the ABC News website here > https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01-26/atlas-network-mont-pelerin-society-neoliberal-think-tanks/105700628 [https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01-26/atlas-network-mont-pelerin-society-neoliberal-think-tanks/105700628]

Cheryl Kernot, Noely Neate & Ronni Salt wrap the #auspol year for SpinProof

Denise is joined for the final SpinProof of yet another #auspol year with our regulars - Cheryl Kernot and Noely Neate - with Ronni Salt as special guest.  They speak about #auspol in 2025 - the highlights and the lowlights - and what's ahead for 2026. And making his SpinProof debut is Denise's cat Bo -who clearly does not like what we're saying :-) Yet another not to be missed replay of an engaging, entertaining and highly informed live chat.

Cheryl Kernot and Noely Neate join SpinProof

Catch up on this week’s political events in our latest SpinProof podcast replay -where Denise speaks with our favourite regulars - Cheryl Kernot and Noely Neate. We covered it all — from the post-election fallout (Labor’s majority, the rise of independents, and what the result really tells us), to the ongoing chaos around Trump, and big moments in media with Antoinette Lattouf’s legal win against the ABC. Plus, the social media bans — and how a flawed process from the start has led to a highly flawed plan.  Yet another great discussion.

Suzie Holt - community independent candidate for Groom - joins SpinProof

Today Denise speaks with Suzie Holt - the community independent candidate for the regional QLD seat of Groom.  In this wide ranging conversation they speak about the issues impacting the people of Groom, the benefits of having a representative focused solely on community need - and how the community independents movement offers a positive and constructive path forward in very volatile times. A great conversation!

Kath Davies from Chisholm joins SpinProof

The community independent candidate for the Victorian electorate of Chisholm - Kath Davies - joins Denise today for SpinProof.  They chat about Kath's interest in politics and why she's running as the community independent candidate, her campaign journey so far - and why she thinks the community independents movement is so important. A worthwhile listen.
