Is your car listening to you? James Ward from Drive says some cars do send voice and driving data back to the maker, and explains why no government cares about your everyday chat but you still shouldn't talk secrets in any new car. He also has the case for a pre-purchase inspection, and why V8s are holding their value.

David Littleproud joins from Horsham on the rate rise, the backpacker visa cut and the OpenAI breach of a Medicare data portal.

Former NSW detective Dr Vince Hurley says the gangs behind this wave of violence pay brokers to find someone else to do the job, and that cutting the tobacco excise wouldn't stop them.

Plus, Dave Fuller from God's Squad explains how a Christian motorcycle club earned a place in outlaw clubhouses.

On Truckie Tuesday, Rod Hannifey is home in Dubbo talking fuel and Stoney Creek Road, and he has a warning for anyone who sits beside a truck's left door.

Guests: Dr Vince Hurley, David Littleproud, Dave Fuller, James Ward, Rod Hannifey, Belinda Hughes
