Jeremy Cordeaux returns to the garage with a fiery critique of the Albanese Government, examining plunging Newspoll numbers, controversial tax changes, housing affordability, and what he sees as serious failures in economic management. Jeremy argues that proposed tax reforms and attacks on investment are already hurting Australia's housing market, warning of rising rents and lower auction clearance rates.

He also takes a deep dive into the AUKUS submarine program, comparing it to the abandoned French submarine deal and questioning whether taxpayers are getting value for money from Australia's largest-ever defence procurement project. Jeremy reflects on billions already spent with little to show for it and calls for greater transparency around defence spending.

Along the way, he shares stories from Australian history, famous birthdays, political intrigue, and memorable moments from the past, delivering the unique mix of opinion, commentary and nostalgia that listeners have come to expect from The Court of Public Opinion.
