Here, we bring you an episode from Momentum Media’s newest show,
Contested Ground, in which Joe Hockey, former Australian ambassador
to the United States, joins hosts Phil Tarrant, Major General
(Ret’d) Marcus Thompson and Steve Kuper to discuss the continued
importance of the relationship between Australia and the United
States.
The trio discuss the fallout of the latest presidential debate
between contenders, former president Donald Trump and Vice
President Kamala Harris, touching on the implications for the
bilateral relationship, the role of grey zone warfare and
information warfare efforts in the upcoming election and how they
may shape the outcome, as well as the importance of the partnership
in helping Australia reindustrialise and build a truly sovereign
defence industrial base, with a pathway forward to establishing an
integrated Australian prime.
Contested Ground is a new podcast investigating the complex and murky world of grey zone warfare as nations compete on the global stage. It lifts the veil on how state and non-state actors compete for influence below the threshold of armed conflict, informing business and public sector leaders on how malicious actors exploit Australia’s financial and social systems for their gain.
