📊 Median house prices in Sydney and the household incomes needed to service those mortgages
🏡 The growing trend of Australians using superannuation to buy property
🚪 Why young couples and families are being priced out of Sydney
📈 The rise of first home buyers skipping incentives to buy investment properties instead

🎙️ 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.

Stats That Shape Australia | With Brianna McKee
In this episode of The JJ Podcast, Jaimee and Jaimie sit down with Research Fellow Brianna McKee to unpack the numbers shaping Australia’s future. From demographics to energy to education, the statistics tell a powerful story about where we’re headed as a nation.
We dive into:
👶 Australia’s birth rate decline — how it compares globally, and why it poses serious challenges for our economy, security, and future stability.
📉 The fall of “woke” culture — why the trend is slowing in Australia, and how we often follow America’s lead, just a few steps behind.
⚡ Energy policy and young Australians — fresh IPA research reveals that 18–24 year-olds care most about affordability, and aren’t willing to pay the price for net zero.
📚 The decline of history education — what it means when schools and universities step away from teaching our past.
It’s an eye-opening conversation that challenges the narrative and digs into the data.

From foreign relations and our alliance with America under President Trump, to defence security, energy security and pricing, and emissions targets—we unpack where Australia is heading and why so many feel left behind.
We also dive into the day-to-day realities Australians are facing: skyrocketing immigration, cost-of-living pressures, housing affordability, the small business squeeze, public spending blowouts, national debt, and more.
It’s a wide-ranging conversation that goes beyond headlines and gets to the heart of what’s really happening.

In this powerful episode of The JJ Podcast, we sit down with Senator Pauline Hanson, founder of One Nation, for a wide-ranging and candid conversation.
We discuss the tragic death of Charlie Kirk and what it reveals about the growing attempts to silence conservative voices.
Pauline shares her thoughts on the surge of support for One Nation across Australia, the importance of Aussie pride, and why celebrating our flag and heritage should never be labelled as “racist." We dive into concerns about activism creeping into the Aussie school curriculums, and Pauline gives her perspective on Jacinta Nampijinpa Price, the current Liberal leader — and why she might be more at home in a party like One Nation.
A straight-talking, unapologetic discussion on politics, patriotism, and the future of conservatism in Australia.
