In this Garage Edition of The Court of Public Opinion, Jeremy Cordeaux tackles the week’s most eyebrow-raising moments — from Anthony Albanese’s bizarre “Joy Division” T-shirt scandal to woke self-censorship, Adelaide’s population boom, and the true cost of Halloween decorations. He also shines a light on beach safety, government waste on defibrillator rollouts, and an explosive Four Corners investigation into child abuse networks. It’s thoughtful, fearless, and classic Cordeaux — saying what others won’t.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
