Episode 5 - The Monster Factory

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 how innocent children went into the Borstal system of youth detention and came out as brutal criminals. It's what he likes to call 'the monster factory'.

We also look to the present state of youth detention and some of the things that haven't changed as much as we like to think, especially regarding youth in solitary confinement and regular abuse and torment.

It's a bit of a serious one.

The news has a look at Hunter Biden's laptop and the 'contents', donut days in Victoria and yet another outbreak of covid-19 in The White House. Oh dear.

The Week in Pete Evans looks at his plans for a wellness retreat that features red pills over dinner and Pete winning yet another award for being Pete.
