Short Clip | Life After War: Navigating the Warrior Mindset

In this clip of 2 Worlds Collide, I sit down with Jeremiah Wilber, a former U.S. Army Green Beret and Military Police Officer, to talk about one of the hardest transitions a warrior can face—life after the military. Jeremiah breaks down the raw reality of what it’s like to go from being trained as an attack dog—ready for war, wired for combat—to suddenly being told, "You don’t need to fight anymore." But as he shares, you can’t just flip that switch off. 💡 In this powerful conversation, we discuss: 👉 How the military conditions warriors for combat but doesn’t prepare them for separation. 👉 The struggle of finding purpose after service—when the mission ends, but the fire still burns. 👉 The warrior mentality—how to channel it into something greater rather than letting it destroy you. 👉 Jeremiah’s own journey in navigating this transition while always doing the right thing. This isn’t just a story of leaving the military—it’s about transformation, discipline, and finding a new fight worth standing for. 📅 Full episode drops this weekend! 📢 Connect with Us: 🌐 Website: www.2worldscollide.com.au 📱 Instagram: @2worldscollidepodcast 🐦 TikTok: @2.worlds.collide.podcast 📱 X: @2worldsPodcast 🔥 Watch Now & Subscribe for More: 📺 YouTube: /@2worldscollide 🎧 Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & more!

Short Clip | Magill Youth Training Centre: The Hidden Horror Inside

🎙️ In this clip from 2 Worlds Collide, I sit down with Andrew Carpenter, a leading lawyer exposing some of the biggest failures in Australia’s legal and government systems. We uncover the dark past of Magill Training Centre, a detention facility where serious misconduct and systemic failures led to national and international scrutiny. The situation was so horrific that the United Nations stepped in and demanded its closure. Yet, unbelievably, some of those involved are still working in the industry today. Andrew also breaks down the dangers of social media for kids, including Snapchat’s location settings, which can expose real-time locations if not switched off. He explains why parents need to be hyper-aware of what they post online about their kids—from school uniforms to sporting club gear—because the wrong people are always watching. 💡 In this clip, we discuss: 👉 The failures at Magill Training Centre and why it was shut down. 👉 How social media puts kids at risk and what parents can do about it. 👉 The legal loopholes allowing certain people to stay in power. 👉 Why urgent action is needed to protect the vulnerable. 🔔 This is a must-watch conversation for parents.

#39 - Andrew Carpenter - Exposing Australia’s Child Abuse Epidemic—The System Is Failing

🎙️ In this episode of 2 Worlds Collide, I’m joined by Andrew Carpenter, the man the Herald Sun calls “The Most Hated Man by Australian Child Sex Offenders.” This is a brutal, unfiltered look at the reality of child abuse cases in Australia—because the numbers are beyond disturbing. On some days, over 50% of cases in the South Australian District Court involve child sexual abuse. Let that sink in. Even more horrifying? 500,000 streams of child exploitation material are flooding into Australia every single day. This isn’t happening in some far-off country—it’s happening right here in our backyard. Andrew isn’t just calling it out—he’s fighting for real change. One of his biggest pushes? A law that forces child sex predators to hand over their superannuation to their victims. If you destroy a child’s life, you should lose everything. Simple. 💡 This episode covers: 👉 The staggering statistics on child abuse cases overwhelming Australia’s courts. 👉 How 500,000 streams of child exploitation material are consumed in Australia daily. 👉 The failures of the legal system that allow predators to walk free. 👉 Why real legislative change is needed NOW—including Andrew’s super fund reform to compensate victims. This isn’t just another episode. This is the truth no one wants to talk about. And it needs to be heard. 🎧 Listen now on Youtube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you get your podcasts. 📅 New episodes every week!
