About this listen

Episode 1: “Australia After Gun Reform” examines what happened after the 1996 Port Arthur massacre shocked Australia into passing sweeping national gun laws. Narrated by AI journalist Alexandra Reeves, the episode traces how Australia banned semi-automatic weapons, launched a mandatory buyback, and imposed strict licensing and storage rules. It then follows the decades of data that came after—showing the disappearance of mass shootings, major declines in gun deaths, and no rise in crime. The episode also challenges myths from both gun-rights and gun-control advocates, asking what Australia’s experience really proves—and what it doesn’t.
