John speaks with Dr. Nigel Biggar and Dr. Stephen Chavura to explore the complexities of history, challenging one-sided narratives of colonisation and conflict. Their discussion sheds light on the nuanced relationships between settlers and Indigenous peoples, revealing both moments of mutual respect and undeniable tragedy. The discussion emphasises an understanding of history within its true context, free from oversimplifications. They also examine contemporary issues affecting Indigenous Australians, including the widening gaps in remote communities despite progressive policies. Each of them advocate practical solutions that focus on integration, education, and equal justice, rather than divisive narratives perpetuating victimhood. Dr. Nigel Biggar CBE is Emeritus Regius Professor of Moral and Pastoral Theology at the University of Oxford, author and theologian. His most recent books are Colonialism: A Moral Reckoning (William Collins, 2023) and What's Wrong with Rights? (Oxford University Press, 2020). Dr. Stephen Chavura teaches European and Australian history at Campion College, Sydney. His most recent (co-authored) books are The Forgotten Menzies: The Mind of Australia's Longest-Serving Prime Minister (Melbourne University Publications, 2021), and Reason, Religion and the Australian Polity: A Secular State? (Routledge, 2019).

2022 so far has seen alarm and hysteria continue to cripple the world on new fronts from both real and concocted crises.

Stephen is a contributor to Caldron Pool and also posts his commentary and vlogs to his own social channels. He has been a speaker at recent Sydney Freedom Rallies. Stephen and I discuss what the past two years of compliance by Australians with covid lockdowns and jab mandates says about the Australian character. Stephen believes internet technology is behind the rise of cancel culture but believes that humanity throughout history has always socially ostracized dissenters from the mainstream of those times. Stephen is disappointed in the current state of Liberal Governments including the botching of their proposed Religious Discrimination Bill. Stephen co-authored a book in Liberal Party Founder and former Prime Minister Sir Robert Menzies. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stephen Chavura joins Nick Cater to defuse the loaded language of the anointed, starting with the terms “left” and “right”. As Thomas Sowell observed, while it is relatively easy to define what it means to be “on the left”, the term “right wing” seems little more than a label used by the anointed to condemn those with him they disagree. “Those who oppose the left are said to be on the right — and when they are strongly opposed, or opposed across a broad spectrum of issues, they are said to be on the “far right,” writes Sowell. Dr. Stephen Chavura teaches European and Australian history at Campion College. Nick Cater is Executive Director at the Menzies Research Centre
This week, returning guest Stephen Chavura joins host Jonathan for a deep dive on the political and cultural legacy of one of our age's most significant public intellectuals: Jordan B. Peterson.

Is he one of the greatest theologians of the early 21st century? These are just some of questions Stephen and Jonathan explore in this appreciative tour of the Peterson phenomenon. Dr Stephen Chavura lectures in history at Campion College and Dr Jonathan Cole is Assistant Director at the Centre for Public and Contextual Theology, Charles Sturt University.
