The Dr Jo Show

The media is coming for Pauline Hanson, but I'm standing with her. After I publicly endorsed her comments on Islam, I received an official complaint from the Islamic Society of South Australia. But here's the problem: while they claim to be "pro-life" allies, their own statements prove they support abortion right up until birth. In this episode, I break down their hypocritical letter, expose the truth about Sharia courts running wild in the UK, and explain why you cannot criticise Islam without being labeled a racist. If we don't wake up to the threat of political Islam, Australia will end up like Lebanon. Watch now before this gets flagged.📲  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 powerful episode, I sit down with MLC Michelle Hoffman, a new MP in Western Australia who is on the front lines of one of the most unsettling political battles we've seen. With Labor attempting to radically expand surrogacy laws, Michelle is fighting to protect vulnerable women and children - often completely alone.We dive into the proposed changes that would allow 18-year-olds to become surrogates and why the Parliament voted against mandatory criminal checks for intended parents. Michelle also opens up about the personal cost of politics, juggling three young boys, and how she finds the strength to keep fighting when victory feels impossible. This is a conversation about courage, motherhood, and the value of life you won't want to miss.📲  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

Tim Mander was the model Christian—Queensland Father of the Year, CEO of Scripture Union, and a man who wore his faith on his sleeve. But after entering parliament, that image has completely shattered. In this episode, we expose the stark contrast between the man who gave a powerful pro-life speech in 2018 and the politician who now votes for gag orders while carrying on an affair with a colleague. This is a sobering look at how power and politics can corrupt, and a warning about who we place our trust in. Watch until the end for the full 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

In this must-watch training session from the Bird Flip Ambassador Program, philosophy expert Dr. Emma Wood deconstructs the philosophical underpinnings of the abortion debate.She breaks down the flawed "psychological account" of personhood used by the other side and presents the powerful "substance view"—the argument that all human beings have value because of their rational nature, not just their current capabilities.

We're facing intense backlash from within the pro-life movement after calling out so-called "Christian" LNP MPs in Queensland. A liberal power broker texted us pleading for silence, arguing that criticizing MPs like Amanda Stoker helps Labor. But does the gospel call us to prioritize political power over protecting babies? We respond to the criticism head-on, exposing the flaw in the "wait until 2028" strategy and explaining why holding cowardly politicians accountable—even our "friends"—is the only way to save lives. If we can't critique the LNP, what's the point?📲  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 of The Dr Jo Show, we dive headfirst into the firestorm surrounding Pauline Hanson's latest controversial statement: "There's no such thing as a good Muslim." While the media and political class erupt in outrage, we dissect the uncomfortable question at the heart of the debate.Is it possible to separate the individual from the ideology? We explore the nuances of Islam as both a faith and a political framework, questioning whether the establishment's condemnation is about genuine principle or political self-preservation. From Sharia law to the concept of jihad, we analyse if Hanson's critics are defending a religion or refusing to see its radical core. We also contrast the media's treatment of Hanson's comments on Islam with their eventual shift on her past warnings about immigration, asking if the conservative establishment is once again out of touch with public concern.📲  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

👉 Sign the petition: https://www.drjoannahowe.com.au/metaThis was the week the narrative flipped. After exposing the story of Baby Samuel—a baby boy born alive at 16 weeks and left to die—the mainstream media had no choice but to cover the truth. From Tori Shepard’s backfiring hit pieces to Shannon Fenton deleting thousands of comments, we broke through the censorship. We held the biggest pro-life rally in Queensland history, and when Nigel Dalton courageously crossed the floor, they were forced to come to us for the exclusive. The media tried to bury us, but we ended up owning them.

Is Andrew Hastie a conservative hero or a careerist who sold out the Christian vote? In this episode of the Doctor Joe Show, we dive into the warring articles from Dave Pellow (Church and State) and Peter Abetz to dissect Hastie’s controversial vote on Labor’s hate speech laws.We unpack his infamous response to Charlie Backhouse, where he called out "keyboard warriors" and justified his actions. Was voting for the "lesser evil" a courageous compromise, or an unforgivable betrayal that will put Christians in jail? We argue that compromising on an immoral law is never the answer and why free speech must be protected.Join the debate: Is Andrew Hastie a good guy or a bad guy?📲  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

👉 Code "istand" for 10% off this week only: https://birdflip.store/pages/shopAmanda Stoker was once touted as the future of the Queensland conservative movement, but this week she has been exposed. In this episode, we break down the second attempt to lift the abortion gag order in parliament and how Stoker—unlike the heroic Nigel Dalton—refused to cross the floor to save babies like Samuel.Despite private assurances and public pleas, Stoker chose her political career over the lives of the unborn. We analyze her disingenuous email response, her use of "behind the scenes" advocacy as an excuse, and why her inaction makes her complicit.
