The Karl Stefanovic Show

She says she was thrown under a bus by her own party. She says Australia has lost its confidence. And she’s done playing it safe.In this unfiltered conversation on The Karl Stefanovic Show, Jacinta Price opens up about internal party fractures, what she really thinks of Angus Taylor, and what her political future now looks like.She doesn’t hold back on national identity either — calling Welcome to Country ‘pointless’, arguing Australia should unite under one flag, and questioning whether weak leadership has left the country divided and uncertain.From loyalty and ambition to assimilation and accountability, this is a straight-down-the-line conversation about where Australia is heading — and who’s prepared to say what others won’t.

In this episode of The Karl Stefanovic Show, Karl sits down with Michael Maguire for a rare, deeply honest conversation about leadership, pressure and what it actually takes to build a winning rugby league team.Madge opens up about taking on one of the toughest jobs in Australian sport — coaching the Brisbane Broncos in a parochial market with relentless media pressure — and why he never flinched. He walks through his coaching blueprint: hard standards, brutal honesty, trust built over time, and a belief that players grow when you genuinely care about them as people first.They dive into Reece Walsh’s development, the misconceptions around his game, and how maturity, discipline and trust transformed raw talent into match-winning impact. Madge also breaks down how belief is built across a season, why hard training is non-negotiable, and how pressure moments — injuries, suspensions, hostile crowds — reveal who you really are.From rebuilding culture to delivering when the noise is loudest, this is a masterclass in leadership, resilience and elite performance — on and off the field.

In this episode, Barnaby Joyce joins Karl for a raw, unfiltered conversation about power, politics and why he believes everyday Australians — particularly those in the country — keep getting screwed.Barnaby talks candidly about his semi-fun friction with Anthony Albanese, and how he gets under the Prime Minister’s skin. He lays out his view on how Australia could be a genuinely rich country again — if governments backed productivity, energy security and regional Australia instead of bureaucracy and ideology.He argues that country people pay the highest price for bad policy, from environmental regulation to energy decisions made in cities by people who never feel the consequences. Barnaby reflects on what government used to be like “in the old days” — when leaders were tougher, more human, and less afraid of making hard calls — and why he believes modern politics has lost that edge.The conversation turns sombre as he speaks about the horror of Bondi and what it did to the national psyche — a moment he says pushed many Australians to finally say “no more.” From there, Barnaby delivers a blunt critique of what he calls a sanitised political culture, arguing Australians are sick of being lectured, controlled and told what they can and can’t say.It’s a confronting, controversial discussion about leadership, national identity and whether Australia still has the backbone to make decisions in its own interest.Would so appreciate your rating a follow if you enjoyed this episode.

In this episode, I sit down with Curtis Stone for a brutally honest conversation about what really happens behind the success.Curtis opens up about almost losing the $4m business he backed with his brother, the bad review he literally threw in the bin because he knew it was wrong, and the reality of the drug epidemic he sees every day living in LA. He talks about why he actually moved to LA in the first place (a free trip with his mates), and why Australia is pulling him home again — including the restaurant he wants to open here next.There are lighter moments too: the panic of Paul McCartney turning up to dinner with no vegan meals prepared, the blind date with his wife he nearly didn’t go on, and what it was really like working under Marco Pierre White — intense, intimidating, and formative. We also talk steak — including the perfect cut served at Curtis’ LA restaurant, Gwen (we tasted it… it’s elite).And guys, if you like this epsiode, I'd really appreciate a follow It's free and it really helps us build this channel.

In this conversation, Big Chocky and I tackle some of the most difficult and polarising issues facing Australia right now.Big Chocky opens up about being labelled a racist, his stance against all forms of extremism, and why calls for retaliation after the Bondi attacks were not the right answer. We discuss ASIO, the limits of watchlists, and the reality that many serious threats never make headlines.The conversation turns to protecting women amid rising attacks, the lack of positive role models for young boys, and how anger can be redirected into communication rather than violence.He also shares his personal story — being adopted at two months old, never knowing his biological parents, the role his wife has played in his success, and how he grew an audience of more than one million people in just a year.Karl reflects on his own father’s experience immigrating to Australia, the importance of assimilation, and what it means to join a country by embracing its values — not just living within its borders.A confronting, personal and timely conversation.

In this episode, I sat down with Alexander Volkanovski for a raw conversation about what it really takes to stay at the top. At 37.About being written off, fighting through doubt, and the mental discipline it takes to keep showing up when the margin for error is zero. He talks fighting in Sydney this Sunday, the pressure of carrying a nation - in front of his family, preparing for the unexpected, and why providing for his family is still the ultimate motivator.From White House UFC hype to the quiet, unseen work of mental readiness, this is an honest look at resilience, legacy, and staying in the fight long after people think you’re done.Love to know what you think.Follow my page so you never miss an episode.
