Welcome to The Conditional Release Program, a podcast that delves into the netherworld of cults, crims and con artists.
Who would have thought a spicy chest cough would turn everyone so completely mad?
Our weekly show covers the conspiracy theorists that created a 'shadow pandemic' of political idiocy and violent ideation within the fringe of politics.
From time to time we get our hands even dirtier with true crime deep dives. Jack is a seasoned expert in the true crime genre, having written and spoken extensively about Roger Rogerson, Stan 'the man' Smith and, of course, the Fine Cotton Fiasco. In various episodes he guides us through the dark underbelly of Australian crime in his trademark storytelling style.
The world is getting weird and we are getting weird with it. Let's watch as democracy crumbles into a smouldering heap - and take note of the kids carrying the matches and the metho.
Hosted by Jack the Insider and Joel Hill with an occasional rotation of guests that generally share our distaste toward the lunatic fringe.
Last week was a bit of a slog. We both spent the entire week doomscrolling twitter and taking notes to make sure we were across the rather casual and amazingly short lived attempted coup in the Unite…
What a genuinely bizarre start to the year. We were going to cover flat earthers - they are hilarious and apparently full of nazis - but January 6 really kicked off.
In the news, Melissa Carone is bac…
While everyone seems to be celebrating the end of 2020, I hope they aren't celebrating the start of 2021. There's a bloody lot that could go wrong in the next twelve months and just because there's b…
This one is a MEGA EPISODE! It's about twice as long as normal. Let's face it, you're either on a road trip or fucking around at home. Turn this on instead of the cricket commentary and the time will…
Oh no! The plague is back! And it went straight past the harbour bridge, through the wakehurst parkway down into Avalon bloody Beach!
We look at the resurgence of Covid-19 in NSW through a redpilled …
This episode we take a backwards glance at some of the biggest fuckwits of 2020. This is a big claim, as they've really come out of the woodwork this year - but anti-lockdowners have it all. Antivaxx…
This week's news is a bit of a big one - there's a bloody lot to cover. We look at our favourite new Trump witness, Melissa Carone otherwise known as 'Conspiracy Karen'. We also look at the way the c…
This week we look at incels. The unfuckables. Those who couldn't get a root in a brothel. It's a dire place to be and you'd never want to join the ranks.
Within this unfortunate subculture are those t…
It's been a tough week for the Nazis. Realising that Pete Evans might be one of them has surely caused an existential crisis in the ranks.
This week Jack looks at the common misconception that the Na…
Anti vaccine activists are a pain in the arse. We plan to give you an idea of why they give us the shits and what makes them particularly evil. A cult of grifters and scumbags that has only been galv…
So this one is pretty spicy. I wrote this under a psuedonym because I simply did not want to deal with raging antivaxxers if the article got any hits. About 10k hits later and no death threats means …
Two elections in one week! How blessed. We have a look at the Queensland election and the huge drop in the One Nation vote which bizarrely seems to have gone to Labor.
We also (obviously) look at the …
Friendly warning: this one contains a bit of chatter about sexual and physical abuse and may bring up uncomfortable themes for some. Listener discretion is advised.
Jack gives us an explanation of ho…
In this episode we look at the ridiculous belief system of the 'Sovereign Citizens'. These are people that think the law doesn't apply to them, and behave as such. The cops think they're terrorists. …
Well I did promise earlier that nothing you learned in this podcast would either be useful or true but I jumped the gun there. National treasure, political trailblazer and very good friend of the sho…
Jack and I introduce ourselves in a spectacularly poorly produced first now second episode. While I focused more on keeping my tins cold in my studio than on audio quality, Jack entrusted me with the…
Here is a primer on all the nonsense we are going to discuss throughout the podcast. While we intended to do the first episode as an introduction, it ended up being a chat which referenced a fair bit…
