My guest to today is Dr Philippa Martyr who is an academic at the university of Western Australia, an author, a regular columnist of the Catholic Weekly, and one of the more knowledgeable people about the state of the Catholic Church in Australia today. She has just released a new book “Witness: The Future Catholic Church in Australia” which contains probably the most comprehensive and UpToDate data about the true state of the Church and Catholic-branded organizations in Australia. It does not paint a pretty picture. However, she is a friend of the Church and the book also contains some thoughtful analysis about what should its future should look like. In our chat we discuss 1. Why non-Catholics should care about the state of the Catholic Church in Australia today 2. How dire things really are 3. What the cause of this situation? 4. Whether we need a Catholic DOGE to get Catholic organizations focused on their true mission. And much more. https://www.connorcourtpublishing.com.au/Witness-The-future-Catholic-Church-in-Australia-by-Philippa-Martyr_p_636.html https://research-repository.uwa.edu.au/en/persons/philippa-martyr https://catholicweekly.com.au/author/dr-philippa-martyr/

Moira Deeming - The Fight Against Gender Ideology Extremism in Australia

My guest today is Moira Deeming a well-known Australian politician who has been member of the Victorian Legislative Council, the upper house of the Parliament of Victoria, for the Western Metropolitan Region since 2022. Moira has risen to national prominence in Australia and internationally as a result of her battle resisting various aspects of gender ideology. She was also involved for most of last year in high profile defamation trial against then Victorian Liberal leader who falsely accused her of being an associate of neo-Nazi sympathisers and extremists. Moira has an interesting and unconventional background for a Liberal Party representative and has long standing traditional ties to the Labor Party. The district she represents an area which has long been seen as being "dead red" i.e. an area where the centre-right has no chance of success. Today we discuss: How she is holding up after her long trial What she thinks is ultimately driving proponents of the gender ideology Why it is that even politicians that agree with her do not have the courage to speak up Why there is an intergenerational divide among women on gender ideology What impact Trump's recent executive orders might have in Australia What she thinks of the realignment in politics in the UK and US and what is means for Australia Why Victoria is no longer the "jewel in the crown" of the Liberal Party and what can be done about that. And much much more.
