• Best of News Fighters: Putin's phoney call-in show! (from 2021)
    Jan 21 2024

    After 5 years and 125 episodes News Fighters is going on indefinite hiatus while I work on other projects. But in the meantime I thought I’d re-release some classic episodes to the podcast feed to recap some of our better, least topical moments which hold up to this day.


    An incredibly huge thank you to everyone who's listened, shared, guested, hosted and written with us, especially regular contributors Stefan Pazur and Bec Melrose, and Dan Ilic at A Rational Fear.

    News Fighters was a comedic look at Australian news, media and political hypocrisy from TV comedy video editor Dylan Behan.

    Jan 12 2023

    For this week’s classic summer episode I replay the Federal Election Night Recap show originally released on May 22, 2022 that recaps why Scott Morrison lost and what we can expect from new PM Anthony Albanese.


    Then I replay my election interview with Tom Greenwell, co-author of the book "Gonski: How Australia Failed Its Schools" about how our politicians keep failing our education system. Order the book here: https://unsw.press/books/waiting-for-gonski/

  • 2022 Year in Review: What a deluge!
    Dec 15 2022

    It’s my fourth annual year in review wrap where I look back on the big Aussie news stories of the year: the floods, the rain, the weather emergencies, the lettuce prices, it’s all here! Also I look back on the May Federal Election, the invasion of Ukraine, China’s Covid Zero uprisings and the Iran protests. Expect hilarious wacky clips and a whole lot of “wait, was that this year?”


    Also our sports and showbiz reporter Stefan Pazur stops by to look back on the year on the screen and on the pitch.
