This week on Karl Weekly.

A family with a severely autistic son says they’ve been blindsided after being told their NDIS funding will be slashed by 80 per cent. Karl speaks to Luke Tunnecliffe and Aimee Newbold about the devastating impact the cuts could have on their son Jack – who is nonverbal, suffers seizures and requires around-the-clock care.

Then, Melbourne businessman Dominic Porter joins Karl after allegedly being targeted in a terrifying home invasion just days after his pub was firebombed. Porter says intruders entered his home allegedly trying to shoot him while his wife and children were inside.

Plus mortgage broker Joseph Daoud explains why he spent nearly $18,000 on Canberra airport billboards attacking the government’s tax changes. He warns Australians the country is becoming hostile to aspiration, investment and small business.

And later, Karl reacts to the latest political insanity: MP pay rises during a cost-of-living crisis, confusion in a Senate inquiry over gender laws and the ABC’s new podcast deal with Grace Tame.

NDIS cuts. Melbourne crime. Tax fury. Canberra chaos. This is Karl Weekly.
