The Dr Jo Show

Rally info: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/nswrallyforlifeseptember2026The latest media attack on Alex Antic has completely unravelled. In this episode, I expose the leaked messages, political manoeuvring and glaring conflicts behind another attempt to damage one of Australia’s strongest conservative voices. I show how Leah Blyth’s own messages undermine her own carefully constructed narrative in support of her preselection campaign for 2028, why Anne Ruston’s political interests matter given she is seeking preselection for the 2032 election, and how a Nine journalist with personal connections to Ruston relied on an AI-generated claim about a “mass walkout” that simply did not happen. This is not serious journalism. It is establishment politics dressed up as reporting. The harder they come for Alex Antic, the clearer it becomes why the Liberal establishment wants him stopped.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donatev

Rally info: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/nswrallyforlifeseptember2026Labor and the Liberals have just pushed through extraordinary new ASIO powers, and Australians deserve to know exactly what happened. In this episode, I expose how the legislation passed the Senate, why most Liberal senators were nowhere to be seen when the vote was recorded, and what these expanded questioning powers mean for freedoms. I break down the threat of compulsory questioning, secrecy offences, the lack of a normal right to silence, and the dangerously vague concept of “promotion of communal violence.” Alex Antic and Andrew McLachlan stood against it. The rest of the Liberal Party must answer for this.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

The Sydney Swans scandal has exposed something far bigger than one night in a hotel room. In this episode, I break down the media’s extraordinary pile-on, the contradictions of commentators who celebrate “sex work” while condemning the men who use it, and the rush to frame unproven allegations as established fact. I explain why the presumption of innocence matters, why the AFL keeps bending the knee to ideological pressure, and why this controversy has become a vehicle for attacking men, masculinity and male sport. The hypocrisy is impossible to ignore, and Australians deserve to see exactly what is happening here.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Australia’s immigration system is completely out of control, and politicians are refusing to confront the biggest part of the problem: international students. In this episode, I explain why Australia’s temporary migration system has exploded, how universities have become dependent on billions in foreign student fees, and why tinkering around the edges will never fix it. I break down the real numbers, the impact on housing, wages and social cohesion, and why Australia should abolish the current international student program and rebuild it from scratch. Our migration system must serve Australians first — and right now, it simply does not anymore📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Born at just 21 weeks and three days, Miracle survived against extraordinary odds—while babies of the same age who survive abortions can still be denied life-sustaining treatment. In this episode, I reveal the hospital protocols, coronial evidence and shocking Queensland statistics the abortion establishment cannot explain away. Now Llew O’Brien has introduced a federal Birth Equality Bill to protect these newborn babies, and momentum is finally building. The tide is turning.

https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/nswrallyforlifeseptember2026Michael Kemp confronted me in regional NSW and insisted I had misrepresented him. His proof? He handed me the speech he gave defending his vote for the Greens’ abortion bill. I read it—and somehow it made his position even worse. In this episode, I break down one of the most incoherent political speeches I have ever encountered: bizarre arguments about “nature,” claims that his community demanded his vote, and excuses that collapse under scrutiny. Kemp says he is a farmer, not a politician. His own words tell a very different story. NSW voters deserve to know exactly what their MPs are voting for.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Rally info: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/nswrallyforlifeseptember2026The South Australian Liberal Party is in the middle of a fierce battle over its presidency, and the media has chosen a side. In this episode, I expose the so-called “leaked letter” published by The Advertiser, the campaign to stop Alex Antic becoming party president, and the factional operators working behind the scenes. The grassroots have already made their position clear, yet the attacks, leaks and media headlines keep coming. I break down what really happened at the Liberal Women’s Council meeting, why the claims of “chaos” are absurd, and why conservatives must understand what is happening inside the party.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/nswrallyforlifeseptember2026In this explosive interview, I sit down with Nationals MP O’Brien as he prepares to introduce a federal bill requiring life-sustaining treatment or palliative care for babies born alive after abortion. We confront the political cowardice surrounding abortion, the Queensland LNP’s decision to shut down debate, and the Nationals’ disastrous record in New South Wales. O’Brien admits he is deeply disappointed with his own side and explains why he has crossed the floor before. I also make clear why I believe conservative voters now have an alternative — and why I am determined to hold politicians accountable for their votes.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/nswrallyforlifeseptember2026Lucy Hood tried to turn one joke about Vickie Chapman into a political scandal, and it backfired spectacularly. In this episode, James and I break down the outrage, the media pile-on, Labor’s glaring double standards, and why attempts to silence blunt criticism only exposed the weakness of their argument. We also revisit Lucy Hood’s record on late-term abortion and explain why Ben Hood’s bill mattered. Most importantly, New South Wales now has a real chance to protect babies.

https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/nswrallyforlifeseptember2026In this episode, I expose what really happens during a late-term abortion after Australian influencer Danielle Mitchell publicly documented the termination of her baby. I explain why describing the baby as simply being “put to sleep” hides the brutal reality of fetal intracardiac injection, potassium chloride, and fetal pain. James and I examine Queensland protocols, animal euthanasia standards, fetal surgery pain relief, and research on how unborn babies respond to invasive procedures. Australians deserve to know exactly what late-term abortion involves. This is why we must speak up, show up, and defend these vulnerable children today across our country now.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

For 14 years, Jess has worked as a midwife bringing babies into the world. Now she is exposing the horrifying reality she has witnessed inside Australian hospitals. In this interview, Jess reveals the trauma of delivering babies after late-term abortions, the pressure placed on midwives who object, and cases that have stayed with her for years — including an abortion at 39 weeks and healthy twins reportedly aborted at 32 weeks. Midwives enter this profession to protect mothers and babies, yet many are being forced into situations that leave them devastated. Australians deserve to know what is happening behind hospital doors.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Vicki Chapman and the Liberal Party’s left tried to stop Australians seeing this interview, which is exactly why I am publishing it. On stage with Senator Alex Antic, I explain why the Liberal Party keeps losing, why One Nation is rising, and why courage matters more than media approval. I reveal my journey from working for Bill Shorten and the union movement to fighting for conservative principles, free speech, women, and babies in the womb. We also discuss defeating the political establishment, bypassing hostile media, building grassroots power, and the historic breakthrough that proves real change is now within reach.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Last night, Vicki Chapman tried to stop my appearance at the Liberal Women’s Council from being filmed, but the room overwhelmingly rejected her motion. In this episode, I reveal exactly what happened, share hidden footage from inside the meeting, and expose the tiny left-wing faction still trying to control the Liberal Party through leaks, disruption, and media hit pieces. The grassroots made their position unmistakably clear: they support free speech, conservative values, and genuine pro-life leadership. Vicki Chapman’s attempt to silence me backfired spectacularly, and the result showed that the old Liberal establishment is losing its grip permanently for good.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Women’s Forum Australia surrogacy resources: https://www.womensforumaustralia.org/surrogacySurrogacy turns pregnancy into a contract and children into commodities. In this episode, I expose the horrifying Canadian case of a surrogate mother being sued for $600,000 after refusing to abort a baby diagnosed with a cleft lip. I explain why this case is not an exception, but the inevitable result of an industry built around adult demands rather than women’s dignity or children’s rights. From abortion clauses and legal threats to global baby farming and Australia’s surrogacy review, the evidence is overwhelming. Surrogacy exploits vulnerable women, deliberately separates babies from their mothers, and must never be expanded in Australia.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

In this episode, I sit down with Professor Peter Ridd, the scientist who exposed the truth about the Great Barrier Reef and paid an enormous price for refusing to stay silent. Peter explains why the reef is thriving, how peer review entrenches academic groupthink, and why universities punish researchers who challenge fashionable orthodoxies. We discuss his dismissal, his High Court battle for academic freedom, the institutional incentives driving climate alarmism, Covid-era deception, and the need for a constitutional right to free speech. Peter’s story proves that courage, evidence and principle can still confront Australia’s most powerful institutions—and win decisively.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

The Full Federal Court’s ruling against Pauline Hanson is a devastating blow to free speech in Australia. In this episode, I break down the Hanson v Faruqi decision, expose how Section 18C overrides genuine political debate, and explain why the court’s reasoning should alarm every Australian. I examine the judges, the expert evidence, the double standards, and the extraordinary claim that restricting offensive speech somehow strengthens democracy. This judgment creates a dangerous two-tier system and confirms that ordinary Australians can be punished for expressing unpopular views. Pauline must fight on, because without free speech, Australia is no longer truly free.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Pauline Hanson called climate change a hoax—and the backlash was immediate. In this episode, Dr Jo and James examine Abby Chatfield’s furious response, revisit dramatic predictions from Al Gore and other climate voices, and ask whether the so-called experts deserve unquestioning trust. From warnings about submerged cities and expanding deserts to claims of human extinction, they compare past forecasts with what actually happened. Dr Jo also reveals why she resigned from a leadership position over climate justice being embedded across a law curriculum. Is climate alarmism collapsing, or are Australians being told only one side of the story?📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

At the National Life Awards 2026, Australia’s pro-life movement honours the politicians, doctors, advocates, creators and community leaders refusing to stay silent. Dr Joanna Howe and James bring humour, emotion and hard truths as awards go to Marika Grünfeld, One Nation, Simone Freeborn, Matthew Bigger, Julie Sharpe, Dr Melissa Lie, Gemma and Rob Cribb. Barnaby Joyce delivers a powerful tribute, while winners reveal the personal cost of challenging abortion laws, media narratives and political pressure.

Pauline Hanson’s call for a monocultural Australia has triggered outrage—but is she raising a question the political establishment refuses to confront? In this episode, Dr Joanna Howe and James debate multiculturalism, national identity, immigration, David Pocock’s viral response, and whether Australia needs one shared culture to survive. They examine claims about diversity, imported cultural practices, free speech, social cohesion, and the media backlash against One Nation. Is multiculturalism truly Australia’s greatest strength, or has it become a dangerous experiment nobody is allowed to question?

Dr Joanna Howe delivers a raw, emotional and unexpectedly funny gala speech about the personal cost of fighting abortion in Australia. After revealing her Labor Party expulsion, she recounts confronting Health Minister Chris Picton, chasing Nat Cook through a polling booth, being removed by police, and breaking down beside her locked electric car. Her 15-year-old daughter keeps filming through the chaos, while her husband races home to help. Then, in a surreal twist, Pauline Hanson arrives for spaghetti and meatballs. Jo also opens up about miscarriage, illness, faith, courage, family sacrifice, and why she refuses to stop fighting for babies.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

What really happened behind the viral interview with ABC journalist Lucy Barber? In this episode, Dr Joanna Howe and James reveal the full inside story—from the ABC’s initial email and allegations involving campaign spending and MP Nat Cook, to the decision that completely turned the tables: recording the journalist herself. They break down the questions they were sent, compare them with the ABC’s eventual TV, radio and online coverage, and explain why they believe the investigation was a politically motivated hit piece. Now, with their response reaching huge audiences online, did the ABC’s attempt to discredit them spectacularly backfire?📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

A young mother had already booked her 22-week abortion. She believed she had no other choice. Then one unexpected ultrasound, one compassionate stranger, and one life-changing conversation changed everything. Today, the little boy who almost lost his life is thriving, and his mother shares her remarkable story for the first time. This emotional interview reveals the pressures that led her to abortion, the support she never knew existed, and how one act of kindness transformed two lives forever. Every Australian should hear this extraordinary true story of hope, courage, compassion, and the power of choosing life.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Breaking news: an Adelaide man has been arrested after attempting to confront South Australian MP Nat Cook—and now leaked bail conditions raise serious questions about free speech and political accountability. In this episode, Dr Joanna Howe examines the extraordinary restrictions reportedly imposed on Luke Poulton, including limits on attending political events and commenting on elected officials online. Are these reasonable bail conditions, or a disturbing sign of growing government overreach? We break down the leaked documents, the media coverage, and why this story matters for every Australian concerned about democracy, free speech, and the right to question those in power.📲  Follow for Updates:📸  Instagram, TikTok & Facebook: @drjoannahowe🐦  X/Twitter: @ProfJoannaHowe🎙️ Podcast available on all platforms: https://thedrjoshow.transistor.fm/📩 Join my weekly e-newsletter: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/join🙏 Help raise awareness of Australia’s extreme abortion laws by donating here: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/donate

Dr Joanna Howe reveals the latest legal threat against her after calling RANZCOG the “Royal College of Abortionists.” In this explosive episode, Jo and James unpack the defamation letter, revisit shocking comments about babies born alive after abortion, and ask why a medical peak body is so aggressively defending abortion up to birth. They also expose growing unrest among doctors, the political controversy surrounding RANZCOG’s leadership, and the rise of Pro-Life Health Professionals Australia as a courageous alternative voice. Is this about reputation, ideology, or silencing the pro-life movement?

Why are the Nationals refusing to answer direct questions? And what happens next in the campaign over the sex-selective abortion bill?

ABC reporter Lucy Barbour called me about Australia Life’s political expenditure and Meta ads — but the interview did not go the way the ABC expected. After revealing I was recording too, I turned the tables and asked one simple question: what is the method of late-term abortion? Despite repeated chances, Lucy refused to answer.

Pauline Hanson’s National Press Club comments on late-term abortion have sparked a major fight on the Australian right. Some commentators are warning that One Nation will destroy its vote if it keeps talking about abortion, but are they right, or are they just repeating the same weak strategy that doomed the Liberal Party for years?
