You may not appreciate the sentiment but I believe your journalism has become too important to be presented only on this platform. Surely you must have been asked to also be a column writer on mainstream press and assuming this is correct why have you not accepted this? Conversely, if you haven't been asked the press here really is f'd.
Hey FriendlyJordies, I just wanted to tell you that you have A LOT of fans over here in Canada. Your content is absolutely incredible and makes me not only laugh but think. I hope someday you take your stand up and come across to Canada, I'd love to see you live. Keep making us laugh and think, especially the thinking part.

So true! And for anyone doubting the slippery slope of reduced ABC content quality she represents, she headed up an ABC/Foxtel co-production about various different decades...

I never understood the attraction (sic), Crabb isn’t entertaining, displays no real intelligence, is by and large boring and has no comedic skills. Just an ABC political jurno hack that got to host a couple of not very watchable or memorable shows. I saw her on insiders recently and she lived up to my expectations. As a general rule, if she is on a show I switch over.
Can't wait for Crabb to write out 10+ tweets thanking her supportive friends and how this doesn't bother her without even an ounce of self reflection or watching the video
"He's like the guy in 1984 that switches from hating Eastasia to Eurasia in the same sentence." Fuck that's good. Also I was listening to Stephen Fry read 1984 and Animal Farm months ago when Scotty was fucking up daily and it occurred to me...if ScoMo was an Orwell character, he'd be Squealer the pig from AF.
My theory about the mainstream media's continual bashing of citizen journalism and new media (like yourself on UA-cam, high profile podcasters and PRGuy for example) is that people quickly realise how disgustingly easy it is to do a reasonably decent job covering topics like politics that the MSM have to bag it. Because then people won't discover what a shit job the MSM do with all the access, money and brand recognition they have.

i recently talked to people doing double degrees or minors in communications and journalism, and they all fucking hate it, think it is a waste of time and money, and is incredibly shallow and dumb. Says alot
In my first ever uni class (Journalism as a major) our lecturer told us about her first job post uni - lying about being related to a victim of a serious crime so she could access the hospital & get the best angle on the story. That level of morally bankrupt absurdism was the norm then & it’s only gotten worse.
I was in a journo minor in 2014, the seeds were being laid and I was too young and too unfocused to notice and do something about it. By the time I realised, all those folks I went to uni with had been working for the Murdoch Mafia for five years. The keys were wound up and they were let out to play.
The point close to where I quit doing journalism at uni was after a mouthpiece for the press council gave a guest lecture, and admitted under questioning they were toothless tigers. No power or desire to enforce so called standards, they all dance to the same Murdoch drum.
Don't let it get to you Jordie! You're a fucking inspiration. You know yourself. Don't let their bullshit change how you think about yourself! Much love brother!
It's just misdirection they redirect to anything else when are doing something scummy they are the same as thieves starting a fire so people look at that instead of watching them steal.
The dislike I have of Anabelle Crabbes vacuousness shocks even me. She writes like a teenage girl with a livejournal in the early 2000’s, not a middle aged woman and certainly not like any sort of journalist. It’s frankly embarrassing.
I feel that mainstream media is trying very hard hard to be relevant to new audiences. There’s so much money tied to capital, they are stuck defending institutions that have become irrelevant. No matter what the ruling class have invested.
This was also the same women who was on the Four Corners segment about vaping and its legality in Australia, and when asked how she feels about Big Tobacco, launched into a FERAL tirade of asking the host what exactly she meant by 'Big Tobacco'... while also being publicly known AND SEEN WITH members of Big Tobacco companies...

I've lived here my whole life and whenever he talks about a journalist or radio presenter from another state I usually have no idea who it is, so don't feel bad. The Eastern states are like their own country.
@@brad9529 @Sanguinarius9999 I don't know about that eh (speak for yourselves I reckon). Aside from the odd backbencher they're all pretty prominent political/media figures who I'd expect anyone to recognise (I mean, why else would we be watching it? Surely no one would care if the subjects were people no one had ever heard of?) At least I hope the average Australian is a bit more informed than to be hearing about the nations political/economic landscape for the first time on youtube.
I've been watching from the states since 2017 to cheer myself up from all the bullshit happening here and Jordan was essential to opening my eyes to how the entire media from organic granola npr to neurosyphilic fox really was working together to keep the status quo that was immiserating and even murdering billions of people in every single country the world over. Good stuff. Depressing but at least I know what's killing civilization now.
So if Jordan has a naughty list... would that make it the, Jordy's Naughties list? The friendly Naughties list... the Jordies, the... the Jaughties.... there's a pun in there somewhere and I cannot find it.
If you're lacking inspiration or talent then a dirty portmanteau is always the go: Naughty Jordies could morph into "The Nordy List" for example. I reckon spoonerisms are where it's at, even if they aren't catchy enough to use as celebrity a couple moniker. "Jaunty Fraudlies" would be be my nomination for Jordie's naughty list.

I started studying media and journalism after I finished high school. I found out without the editors approval (who is paid by the top news outlets- all owned by Murdoch, Packer and Rinehart - or other conglomerate merger media companies of billionaires). I was very disgusted with the nature of the profession as I had long wanted to become an investigative journalist. (Such as yourself). I’ll have to pick your brain on whether you are versed in academic journalism or you are naturally exceptional at investigative independent journalism.
The idea of journalism being a profession at all has been debated since the 19th century. It's hard to see what body of knowledge a professor of journalism is passing on. These days 'professional' just means you get paid for it.
Well at least this "nutter" "keyboard coward" Jordan Shanks is sharp independent and articulate ~ even if he leans "extremely" towards the left he is brutally honest and witty. Now that is neither cowardly nor the signs of a nutter. Keep up the great work Jordan.
This entire notion of "right" and "left" is so fucking stupid. Caring about the extinction of species of animals is not a thing that has the remotest to fucking do with mythical "right" and "left". It no longer has any meaning that matters to anyone, its just words to sow division where there doesn't need to be any.

Serious question: what the hell is even the point of Annabelle Crabb? I mean, I know we all ragged on Leigh Sales when she was the host of 7:30 (not sure how the new host is getting on, so I won’t comment), but at least she was hosting a daily show that was recognisable as journalism. Annabelle Crabb just seems to host pointless small talk shows, write an occasional bit of mediocre analysis on the ABC website, and somehow get called their chief online political writer. She’s truly the most baffling person in all of Australian media, in that it’s truly baffling that she gets paid for what she does. Sure, there are people who are technically worse, I’m sure, but at least they’re doing something recognisable as work.

I’ll have to pick your brain on whether you are versed in academic journalism or you are naturally exceptional at investigative independent journalism.
The idea of journalism being a profession at all has been debated since the 19th century. It's hard to see what body of knowledge a professor of journalism is passing on. These days 'professional' just means you get paid for it.
Same. I said fuck it and got in to IT.
Check out Michael West media. 4 corners still doing a great job too, despite the threats and cuts
@@siouxm2117 4 Corners and Media Watch are the only shows on the ABC that interest me, so I'm grateful they air back-to-back lol
@@joelanderson4899 there are a few other things worth watching. Mystery road is great. Abc still supports talent telling Australian stories 👏
I suspect Jordan has more listeners than the little guy. 😂
Your rants make my day. My favourite videos are Friendly Jordies on a mission 🤣🤣🤣👍👍
Succinct =Z=
I love watching young people learn about Australian politics' this is an excellent channel.
Ben Fordham was a nice little warm up round but you really found your stride with Crabb. You’re in your element when you shit on the ABC.
Ben fordham gets his car serviced just so he can ask the mechanic to grease his rings.
It's so disappointing that these people exist.
Well done, Could not of said it any better than the way you just did.
Well at least this "nutter" "keyboard coward" Jordan Shanks is sharp independent and articulate ~ even if he leans "extremely" towards the left he is brutally honest and witty. Now that is neither cowardly nor the signs of a nutter. Keep up the great work Jordan.
This entire notion of "right" and "left" is so fucking stupid. Caring about the extinction of species of animals is not a thing that has the remotest to fucking do with mythical "right" and "left". It no longer has any meaning that matters to anyone, its just words to sow division where there doesn't need to be any.
"Mahthahhh" totally got me
please can we get a spycam into their Monday morning meetings where they review jordies defamatory material
I love how FJ keeps showing us how incestuous the media/Conservative landscape of Australia is. And how stupid Australian Conservative politicians are compared to their European counterparts.
you guys don't have conservatives you have a mono party separated by your favorite colour. At least we have normal conservatives fighting the rinos.
@@snintendog 1. The United States isn't located within Europe 2. Your conservatives are even stupider than Australian conservatives (for an example read your own comment) 3. The United States is far closer to "a mono party separated by your favorite colour" (in your English it's spelt color). You literally have neocon corporatists or neolib corporatists and that's it.
@@snintendog
American politicians explained:
Batshit crazy - hypocritical extreme right-wing - hypocritical corporatists - ineffectual left of center coporatists
It is a barely functional 'democracy'. With a population less intelligent than any other western nation.
That monkey selfing is what you would call having your cake and eating it too. True spirit animal stuff.
They don't call him Ben Boredom for nothing ....................................
I cracked up at "Like if you can't wait for the Stalinist purge"
I didn’t want this video to end 😭
Keep ‘em coming mate! You rock, a concerned boomer.
men of taste Jordan and Chris , awaiting until the dish is cold , then serving ,ice cold revenge ,with exceptional accuracy , Thank You , for the smile ,the lol , and the Facts , (& never forget the long forgotten Alan Jones's 1st run in ,with London Police in a Public toilet)
f mate, there is going to come a time where you are burnt out and think "am I actually making a difference doing these videos" mate you are, don't quit. this information and the way it is presented is exceptional. please don't stop, keep it coming.
if only new zealand had a reporter like friendlyjordies i love your style =D
My Christ, I fear Jordan Shanks more than the devil himself.
Videos like this, make me wish UA-cam had a love button.
It makes my day when I watch your show especially when you get all worked up about people who are just full of their own self importance brilliant use of free speech
loving the expansion to kind of solid futurama jokes from the kinda solid simpsons jokes, a real genuine evolution of comedy
Someone will be ripped to shreds if there isn't a 2022 election meme review soon.
Hoooly fuck you absolutely savaged Annabel Crabb
honestly good
Lol 😂 Jordy you kill me.
Dead set legend 🍻
Actual!😆 🤘😎
I just had to stop the clip at 4:45... To say....'Avid Ass Licker'. Priceless 🤣 Right back to it I go.
23:07 Can we get this screen grab on a merch shirt, plzzzzz?
“You know when you’re watching Love Island.” No, no I don’t.
Is there an update on the Christopher Pyne sneaking rentboys into Parliament House and having the AFP cover it up.
2:02 This is probably the best and funniest way I’ve ever heard someone call something boring.
The takedown of Crabb in this video is exquisite. The attention to details in these videos are a breath of fresh air.
Next on ABC: one of our in-house luvvies with flamboyant eyewear takes a picnic basket to Pyongyang for a quiet chablis with Kim Jong-Il.
Paul Keating calls David Speers peekaboo and the spooks
The accuracy of this is astonishing. Great work mate!
Ben Fordham definitely got rejected for FOX Sports. No one can replace the king Andrew Voss.
3 letters, 4 points, it’s a try.
If he misses this I'm a dutch astronaut
So glad to see Anabelle's facile agenda get well and truly ripped.
I suspect there will be no reaction from them about this because its all true and they hate it when its true. Keep poking that bear matey.
I wish someone would tie them to a chair, hold their eyelids open clockwork orange style, and force them to watch it on repeat
Exactly
Serious question: what the hell is even the point of Annabelle Crabb? I mean, I know we all ragged on Leigh Sales when she was the host of 7:30 (not sure how the new host is getting on, so I won’t comment), but at least she was hosting a daily show that was recognisable as journalism. Annabelle Crabb just seems to host pointless small talk shows, write an occasional bit of mediocre analysis on the ABC website, and somehow get called their chief online political writer. She’s truly the most baffling person in all of Australian media, in that it’s truly baffling that she gets paid for what she does.
Sure, there are people who are technically worse, I’m sure, but at least they’re doing something recognisable as work.
Seriously the quality of your vids increased exponentially
