News Fighters is a "wacky clips"-based Aussie news comedy podcast, created and hosted by ex-Tonightly/Chaser editor Dylan Behan.
News Fighters is still on hiatus but this week Dylan guest co-hosted an episode of The Chaser Report with Charles Firth and they looked back on a tumultuous knifing season for state opposition party leaders and the miraculous survivor no one expected: Sussan Ley!

News Fighters is back from hiatus with a one-off recap of the 2025 Australian Federal Election campaign policies from the two major parties. It’s do-nothing Anthony Albanese versus the uncosted Peter Dutton. Who will win on May 3? Not the Australian people by the looks of it!

After 5 years and 125 episodes News Fighters is going on indefinite hiatus while I work on other projects. But in the meantime I thought I’d re-release some classic episodes to the podcast feed to recap some of our better, least topical moments which hold up to this day.
An incredibly huge thank you to everyone who's listened, shared, guested, hosted and written with us, especially regular contributors Stefan Pazur and Bec Melrose, and Dan Ilic at A Rational Fear.
