#97 - Senator Alex Antic - Roberts-Smith, Immigration, Energy Chaos & ASIO Powers

🎙 In This Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Senator Alex Antic — for a direct and unfiltered conversation about some of the biggest and most controversial issues facing Australia right now. We dive into the Ben Roberts-Smith defamation case — unpacking the national debate, media coverage, and what this situation means for veterans, accountability, and public trust. We also explore global instability — including recent fires at oil refineries around the world — and what that could mean for energy security, supply chains, and Australia’s future. Beyond that, we get into immigration — how current levels are impacting housing, infrastructure, and the broader direction of the country — and why it’s become one of the most debated topics leading into upcoming elections. We also discuss the ASIO Amendment Bill 2026 — what it proposes, the concerns around government powers, and what it could mean for everyday Australians. This is a raw, honest conversation about politics, national security, and the future of Australia. 🧭 In This Episode We Cover: 🪖 The Ben Roberts-Smith case and national debate 🌍 Global refinery fires and energy security concerns 🏡 Immigration, housing, and population pressures ⚖️ The ASIO Amendment Bill 2026 explained 📉 Public trust, media narratives, and government power 🇦🇺 The direction Australia is heading 💥 Support independent voices 🧢 Merch: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/category/all-products 🤝 Join Patreon: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au/s-projects-side-by-side 📺 Stay Connected YouTube: @2worldscollide Instagram: @2worldscollidepodcast X: @2worldsPodcast Website: https://www.2worldscollide.com.au 🔖 Follow the conversation #2WorldsCollide #AlexAntic #BenRobertsSmith #AustralianPolitics #ImmigrationDebate #ASIO #EnergySecurity #CostOfLiving #RealTalk #IndependentMedia
