North Sentinel Island Could Start WWIII
[Early Access] (Video has finished processing and is now visible!)
Hello Patrons,
While we're putting out a lot of quicker videos on local content we've been working on a few more international videos in the background. This one is on North Sentinel Island, the strait of Malacca, and WWIII. It's a fun one and we hope you enjoy!
Videos will keep coming out at a steady pace for the next few weeks but we've filmed a long (40min+) video that we know you're all going to enjoy, a real classic friendlyjordies style vid. That's being edited right now and we've got some other big things in the works.
Thank you all for your support,
The FJ Crew

Obviously what that Island needs is an American missile base. Let us send a battalion of marines and station a few patriot missiles there, we'll sort it all out for ya.
Remember when Russia traded part of its fleet to Pepsi? What a strange world that would have been if they'd kept them. Who here remembers the great cola wars of 97?
Hi Jordan would love to see a video about the KPMG audit, its somewhat been talked about but not nearly to the level it deserves
Hey FJ team, we'd really appreciate a video on the recent cuts to the NDIS. Please consider researching it even if you don't end up making a full video on it.
You reckon the Thriving Kids initiative is good? To help alleviate NDIS backlog. Earlier targeted support is needed, but hopefully it doesn’t morph into backwater bureaucracy and phantom services. Feel like universal childcare could help underpin implementation and oversight. And probably save money in the long run. *Not an economist but (Ben Shapiro voice) my feelings are facts!
Please do a video on the John Howard Marc Bouris interview. There's some gold in there that illuminates both their thinking. As in, Marc Bouris celebrating John Howard for their decision to pressure lenders to pass on interest rate reductions and celebrating Howard for contributing to the average Australian. Neither of them mention the fact mortgage rates had become such headline news due to the inflation of property from Howard's CGT discount.
The maps and animations are very helpful for understanding this Malaaca, thanks stooge
He probably posted it on YouTube first
Psyche
I think you forgot to post the video, stooge.
I can't see the video
So we will only get Jordan complaining about how Victoria has it too good for too long and that the autists in Patreon want it? The policies Vic Labor are now releasing need to be shouted from the rooftops from someone with Jordans reach.
What policies? Yea it’s good if there’s improvements in the pipeline, but unsure if it needs to be shouted from a rooftop. Victorians can barely afford one. Even the fiddler had a roof to lament on. Over 40,000 education and healthcares workers went on strike this year so not everyone feels its been so good
Where's the beef?
