The Coldest Night

This Saturday, June 21st, is the shortest and coldest night of the year, and for many sleeping rough in Sydney, it could be their last. In this stark and urgent episode, Cailey exposes the deadly intersection between homelessness and mental illness in our city. With over 122,000 Australians experiencing homelessness and soaring rates of untreated mental health conditions among them, this is more than a crisis, it’s a moral failure.

As Sydney prepares to gather in Martin Place for a public memorial honouring lives lost on the streets, this episode is both a eulogy and a rallying cry. Who are we, if we let people die in plain sight? Listen in. Show up. Because the real emergency isn’t the cold, it’s our silence.
