He opened alot of people's eyes he is a very important part of our generations culture. And it's going to make it much harder for the greedy corporations to corrupt them when it's their turn to run the nation.

You just opened the flood gates to non Australians ( entire world) to know the TH-camr Australians knew for years. You've done a great service to the world.
Jordies is a troll with a soul. Im not always into his comedy but Im always into his content. Its a shame some cant see past his comedy and hear the context. Hes a legend and some of the best true reporting out there., proud hes an Australian.
I was wondering if auzzies felt this way, I mean y'all have a reputation for colorful humor but jordies has (rightly) tailored his comedy to his audience online. Not really news you can send to your grandparents lol
@@discipleofdagon8195 *Takes a deep breath* Gets workers to accept multiple years of $1000 a year pay increase, well below inflation, to get the 'budget back under control.' Effectively cutting pay for 4 years... and then during high inflation offering 2.75%... 5% below inflation. Effectively meaning government workers lost $10k a year since McGowan got in. Two of these years were while running a surplus. Refuses to allow good faith negotiations with unions. Backs the use of union busting powers, fining the nurses union $350k including a personal fine of $10k for the head of the union for daring to exercise their right to strike. These were powers labor was against when they were created. (Many other unions asked permission, but accepted they weren't given permission to strike... nurses gave the finger unlike my pussy teacher's union) Treasurer Ben Wyatt joined the board of Woodside and Rio Tinto. McGowan was too tired to be premier, but accepted a job with BHP. Remember how Rio Tinto destroyed 46,000 years of Aboriginal history? Or how a ton of decisions went in favour of these three mining giants? Such as gas approvals, blocking of other mining projects... McGowan in opposition was very much for helping kids with FASD, but when in power said kids in Banksia were 'terrorists' who just used it as an excuse. Under McGowan's watch a foster child I used to care for attempted to take his own life, twice, in Banksia and instead of getting help was placed in solitary confinement again. (This made the paper as a small article) McGowan was ok sending kids to adult prison where self harming has increased dramatically. Banksia has got so bad under McGowan the judges are saying the government is breaking the law and are often refusing to send kids there. There are court orders to change things at Banksia which weren't done... effectively breaching the law. Child protection worker found a child was being sexually abused by another child in a group home. She tried to do something about it and was threatened with prison time and her life destroyed. Her crime... making the government look bad. (Look up 'macie group home'... the journalist who did the story has since been told not to pursue the story any more.... I worked at the group home. The worker is a hero) Lol... The police minister t released a map of every location of every firearm in WA. They said you couldn't get the location from it but.... You could. Now every criminal can find a house with a gun if they want one. Notice how only one of these stories is something Sky News would pick up?
Jordies is the one true gigachad of youtubers. Dude has actual attempts on his life and responds by flipping off the people that want him dead and making hilarious satirical content centered around them. The balls on this man are so large and heavy I don't know how he carts them around.
Sadly, the easiest way to tell if someone's actually doing a great job at exposing and fighting corruption is seeing how ruthlessly that media tries to demonize them.
The best quote this guy ever said was in his video "How to solve a problem like friendlyjordies" where he went full killer mode on two australian journalists and ended saying something like "While you treat your audience as a market, I treat them like human beings. I don't have a "market" I have a Duty." and that's just powerful.
Friendly Jordies has been doing the rest of Aussies a massive service for ages. So much corruption and evil when it comes to people in power here, government, media, all of it. He deserves every bit of support he gets.
you realise that both major parties in Australia are fossil fuel loving, refugee torturing, austerity politics conservatives and that this guy just supports his own version of that. Right? The Labor party is opening record new fossil fuel projects, our emissions are increasing not decreasing, they're spending millions on private rorts for their own interests (corruption that Jordies doesn't cover because he's a hypocrite), and are doing nothing for the poor.
@@S3NTRY he hurt your fee fees? Jesus dude, partisan hacks don't get hits called on their house? The media is begging you to think he's a partisan hack to get away with corruption, just because you disagree with him politically doesnt mean civillians aren't being killed in cold blood? congratulations on being played, I guess.
Investigative journalists are built different man, they got some of the biggest balls I've ever seen. I genuinely don't think there are braver people than Investigative journalists.
Except that friendlyjordies isn't really an investigative journalist, and that's the whole point. He's taken on the role of investigative journalist and built it up over the years because the "real" investigative journalists here in Australia don't have the balls to cover the issues that Jordies covers.
Im so glad whenever Charlie covers Jordies in his videos. He really was a local channel before the firebombing incident, with less than 500k subs but still most young adults in Australia knowing who he is. Whenever he gets shoutouts like this, it really helps the cause and gives him more credibility whenever he takes on these larger issues.

the scary part about the firebombing is that he forgot his keys at the office so he had to go back and get them and decided to just sleep at the office, he would have been asleep in the house when they firebombed it if he hadnt forgotten his keys. ontop of that after it happened, the news people were straight up like doxing him and showing the public the room he sleeps in, pretty much saying "if you want to try again, he sleeps right here in this corner of the house"
I grew up in the same area as Jordies, and he is not only a national treasure but also a local legend in my books. Met him at the local McDonalds once, had a good conversation before our nuggets turned up and we had to bail. Only time I've been genuinely awe struck with meeting someone, but it wasn't about fame I just have a hell of a lot of respect for his work. And this was years before most of his most important work lol
Earlier this year, I had jury selection. Someone brought up government corruption and I started talking about FriendlyJordies. Needless to say, I got out of jury duty thanks to him.
@@drak_darippaEssentially, you’re supposed to not look at any news during the trial because you have to be unbiased, one time someone watched the news and explained it in the court, the entire case went back to square one. I assume it’s the same with TH-camrs, especially journalists.
We are finally at the point where TH-camrs are no longer just TH-camrs. So many are now just branching out to fulfill roles previously filled by traditional television network content. Except now they have more creative control and they cut out more of the middlemen, so in many cases it feels like the content is actually better.
YES. this feels so accurate. i'm watching things like reporting on corruption, fraud, etc. i'm seeing journalism covering things all over that aren't being reported in the news. i'm seeing actual independent news channels. i'm seeing medicine, health, etc. there's a bunch of bs, so you have to comb thru to find the REAL stuff, but it's there. it's really and truly there. and a great platform to help creatives, also.
don't diss clowns like that I asked, however I didn't make a funny bone-rattling video of a woman shivering in their timbers about her dog being put down off of the couch for shitting itself because I make worse content.
@OfficerBMT I want to believe you just don't have a good grasp on the English language for you to unironically write that sentence down and hit send. Hopefully a bot script just had a stroke or something.
He cherry-picks all of his content for maximum spin. People think it's in-depth because they don't know any different. Check out his rant on nuclear power. He got body-slammed because people actually knew how full of it he was. Hasn't mentioned it since, except to make fun of himself to dust it off.
@@S3NTRY listen mate, I don't agree with everything, anyone, has to say. Jordan isn't special in that respect. If you don't like him, nobody is forcing you... BTW *_cherry picks_
@@knowEyeDeer I like his comedy (been to his show), but it became very clear after a couple of years that his bias dictates everything. It's a shame. I don't know why. I think he disappeared into an echo chamber. He shadow-bans people that disagree with him, too. Wouldn't hear about that though, would you. Go looking for negative comments on his videos. Good luck. [Typos happen. Corrected]
@@S1ipperyJimIn a case brought against him by a corrupt politician that he was exposing, for doing a Mario impression and other such things that were fully intended to be comedic. Jordan didn't treat the politician differently because of his race, he treated him differently because he was a money-grubbing lying bastard. He's not racist.
@@S1ipperyJim lmao imagine calling someone parodying a corrupt politician a racist. Calling anyone parodying corrupt politicians as racists would make the whole world racist, even the same race to itself
Sad when random youtubers have to do mainstream media's job for them huh. Glad he does it tho coz he does it way better than they ever could and on a fraction of the budget.
you realise that both major parties in Australia are fossil fuel loving, refugee torturing, austerity politics conservatives and that this guy just supports his own version of that. Right?
Well Australia was built by convicts. regardless of that, he does still expose bullshit, even if its a bias to what bullshit he exposes, he still does more than normal media
Chatted to him for a bit after one of his shows, he was incredibly kind and engaged in the conversation a lot more than I expected. I kind of just wanted to thank him for his self help channel, but it was really cool to have a brief chat about that stuff. Made me gain a lot of respect for him. Not just a great journalist, but also a great person.
FriendlyJordies is the Batman of online journalism. He cannot be paid off. He cannot be cowed with threats. He'll keep exposing corrupt people no matter what the world throws at him. Absolute legend
as a guy who educates my self on law stuff. been a victim of many shady practices from companies, seen govts corrupt that need to be healed corruption, etc. i generally am interested in those types of content we need more people to stand up and heal the corruption for the betterment of all the general public.
honestly so fucking happy to see this guy getting the recognition he deserves for all of this stuff he does, honestly crazy the stuff this man does, it just gives me some slight hope not only in modern journalism but also just the world in general, exposing all the bad shit that these governments and companies do for all to see
😮 From silly character sketches, Holding politicians to account, travelogues,fast food rating, to war journalism, Friendly Jordies content is diverse and entertaining.
He lives in Australia, a place where all the wildlife is already trying to kill him, and then goes and makes more enemies by exposing corruption. The balls on this guy, absolute legend
I discovered friendly jordies from the last video you made on him when his house was bombed, and I'm so glad you covered him bc he's such a gem. Instantly became one of my new favorite TH-camrs. I'm glad you keep a focus on him, i think with a larger, more international audience, it'll hopefully protect jordie from any more attempts on his life
friendlyjordies is a national treasure, not that the MSM would acknowledge it. He's how I keep informed. It's hard to know what's really going on politically and (importantly in Australia) environmentally as there's too much spin in the news. Funny AF as well. Love that you give him shout outs, and was excited to see him collab with Coffeezilla, another creator that keeps me informed.
He is always risking his life, heck he lives in Australia that's a bigger risk than living in America cause at least you got guns to deal with them buggers but Australia would straight up imprison you for having a bow because their gun laws states anything that shoots a projectile is a gun which is dumb since that would mean my d1ck and a55 is a gun if I can shoot out p155 and sh1t
Thank you for giving a shout out to Friendly Jordies, he has done so much to expose corruption in politics in Australia but also to support charities and raise awareness of social issues for many who do not have a voice. He is also hilarious, have seen him live shows twice now and I was laughing so hard I was crying.
My respect to Jordies and Coffee, it’s very difficult to talk about these things exactly because of the repercussions that may occur. In Ecuador we had a presidential candidate get assassinated for trying to fix corruption and it seems that anyone who has good intentions here has something terrible happen to them. It’s sad to know that so many places around the world have corruption that I would have never expected but definitely respect those who cover these things. Once again, well done Jordies, well done Coffee, I am looking forward to watching that collab!
These journalists are everywhere just like during the panama papers having the Maltese reporter getting killed while exposing corruption. Hopefully more gain big public platforms that may help in keeping them safe. Hopefully what grows here in Australia or in America can spread and grow into a network too big too fail or take down. Corruption has seeped into mainstream media for too long
As someone whos been following friendly jordies for years, I genuinely thought the firebomb was the end of his career with his break from youtube, im glad hes now getting the recognition from charlie he deserves.
Jordan & Zyzz were the two OG Australian TH-cam trends for 2000s kids he’s been on the platform for 15 years. Looking back now far out two legends pioneered it for us
I'm almost positive one of those people are going to get him and/or his crew sooner or later. I feel the same way with Coffeezilla. Don't get me wrong, I don't want anything to happen to them, nor do I believe they deserve it. They're all great, courageous people, and I applaud them for their work. However, I really do feel as though their luck is going to run out eventually.
he got sued by the former prime deputy of NSW as well has been kept on terrorist watch by the former prime deputy of NSW himself the one picture where a person is holding a bomb is his manager that has been assaulted and arrested by order of the former prime deputy of NSW
The dude has pissed off the most corrupt politicians and people in Australia and is still alive and kicking more than ever. Jordies and his crew are some of the most trustworthy journalists on the internet and I hope they don't stop pushing back against and exposing corruption.
The difference between being a good person and being a good human being is the lengths you'll go to make sure your fellow man is both kept in wellness and held accountable for the things they do.
Been watching Jordies from the start and it's so good to see over the years how more and more big youtubers keep pushing and supporting him, he really needs it with the work he does
I've been following Jordans content for ten years now and have seen his live shows 6 times. He always makes a point to visit my little country town that nobody else ever bothers to tour to. Last year Jordan showed up in person just days after a devostating record breaking flood that destroyed my entire town to show his support for us. He's an absolute legend.
I've been watching friendly jordies for a long time, I'm super excited you're addressing it again and increasing the amount of people who are seeing what he's exposing.
I’m so glad my boy is getting more attention, I know you’ve at least had him on the podcast, and I’m pretty sure this isn’t your first video about him, but it’s good that you’re consistently recognizing his valuable content
I was not aware of Friendlyjordies, but thanks to you, now i am. And now i have a little more faith in humanity. Thank you for brining this to my attention you handsome devil
Friendlyjordies is a true treasure that we must protect. I'm glad Charlie is talking about him again after the last time when his house got firebombed, more people need to know about his work
I caught the opening of this video and knew immediately this man was one of the few serious journalists in a world where that word has been butchered to the point of irrelevance. He deserves mad respect.
I'm so glad Jordie is getting the recognition he deserves. I find his longer form content revolving around Australian politics to be enlightening and surprisingly easy to digest for a foreigner.
Thank you for telling everyone about Jordies again dude. We all love him in AUS and we're all so stoked you've let more ppl know about him. He's both hilarious (seen him twice live) and his journalism is MUCH needed and important.
Charlie's video about Jordan Sex Money Shanks that came out when his house was firebombed introduced me to more problems in the world outside of news. I applaud Charlie every time he talks about people like this because it helps their channels and it's just so nice.
More like journalist because if he was influencing there would be more people like him who stick their heads out of the trench to face corruption except there's only a few I could name from the back of my mind like coffeezilla or Karl jobst
Huh, that's _exactly_ the same comment left on the previous video. It was definitely copy+pasted because you even have the ' say "' part, with the space after 'say' instead of before 'That's'.
as someone who has been a fan of FriendlyJordies ever since he got firebombed, it’s great to see corruption in countries being exposed. its so sad to see that people are trying to hide whats behind the scene.
Jordies is definitely playing a dangerous game, and the most powerful thing that popular youtubers can do is to spread it. Kudos for this vid. I hope the support spreads.
Friendly Jordies is one of the few channels that does genuine, decent journalism . I remember him from years ago doing the VB longneck sketch and i see him now doing some of the best journalism and research around .
This chap is what investigative journalism should be. He personifies the courage necessary in highlighting the balderdash and malarkey inherent in individiuals and organizations that thoroughly enjoy the protections of local and state governments.
Jordan Shanks is an international hero. We desperately need people like him and his team across the world, I'd love to see channels like his based in the UK, USA, etc.

I heard about him a year or two ago when his house got burnt down.

This isn't the first time nor only TH-camr to talk of him. Pyro also talk about him. Both has a huge following
Jordies is a troll with a soul.
Im not always into his comedy but Im always into his content. Its a shame some cant see past his comedy and hear the context. Hes a legend and some of the best true reporting out there., proud hes an Australian.
I was wondering if auzzies felt this way, I mean y'all have a reputation for colorful humor but jordies has (rightly) tailored his comedy to his audience online. Not really news you can send to your grandparents lol
I would like him to put more pressure on labor though. Does my head in what labor has done, especially in wa, but never a word said.
@@MrZoomah care to give us an example??? Or did Skynews just say "Labor's doing horrible things in WA"?
@@discipleofdagon8195 *Takes a deep breath*
Gets workers to accept multiple years of $1000 a year pay increase, well below inflation, to get the 'budget back under control.' Effectively cutting pay for 4 years... and then during high inflation offering 2.75%... 5% below inflation. Effectively meaning government workers lost $10k a year since McGowan got in. Two of these years were while running a surplus. Refuses to allow good faith negotiations with unions.
Backs the use of union busting powers, fining the nurses union $350k including a personal fine of $10k for the head of the union for daring to exercise their right to strike. These were powers labor was against when they were created. (Many other unions asked permission, but accepted they weren't given permission to strike... nurses gave the finger unlike my pussy teacher's union)
Treasurer Ben Wyatt joined the board of Woodside and Rio Tinto.
McGowan was too tired to be premier, but accepted a job with BHP.
Remember how Rio Tinto destroyed 46,000 years of Aboriginal history? Or how a ton of decisions went in favour of these three mining giants? Such as gas approvals, blocking of other mining projects...
McGowan in opposition was very much for helping kids with FASD, but when in power said kids in Banksia were 'terrorists' who just used it as an excuse. Under McGowan's watch a foster child I used to care for attempted to take his own life, twice, in Banksia and instead of getting help was placed in solitary confinement again. (This made the paper as a small article) McGowan was ok sending kids to adult prison where self harming has increased dramatically. Banksia has got so bad under McGowan the judges are saying the government is breaking the law and are often refusing to send kids there. There are court orders to change things at Banksia which weren't done... effectively breaching the law.
Child protection worker found a child was being sexually abused by another child in a group home. She tried to do something about it and was threatened with prison time and her life destroyed. Her crime... making the government look bad. (Look up 'macie group home'... the journalist who did the story has since been told not to pursue the story any more.... I worked at the group home. The worker is a hero)
Lol... The police minister t released a map of every location of every firearm in WA. They said you couldn't get the location from it but.... You could. Now every criminal can find a house with a gun if they want one.
Notice how only one of these stories is something Sky News would pick up?

Except that friendlyjordies isn't really an investigative journalist, and that's the whole point. He's taken on the role of investigative journalist and built it up over the years because the "real" investigative journalists here in Australia don't have the balls to cover the issues that Jordies covers.
Im so glad whenever Charlie covers Jordies in his videos. He really was a local channel before the firebombing incident, with less than 500k subs but still most young adults in Australia knowing who he is. Whenever he gets shoutouts like this, it really helps the cause and gives him more credibility whenever he takes on these larger issues.

@@bruhtonbruhkkinson6848 Especially when you think about how he started with skits lol

the scary part about the firebombing is that he forgot his keys at the office so he had to go back and get them and decided to just sleep at the office, he would have been asleep in the house when they firebombed it if he hadnt forgotten his keys. ontop of that after it happened, the news people were straight up like doxing him and showing the public the room he sleeps in, pretty much saying "if you want to try again, he sleeps right here in this corner of the house"
Whats worse is they firebombed his neighbours
@@aarons6935yeah, they did the neighbours first, and then his. Whoever did it didn't care who they firebombed, only if they could get away with it.

why the fuck would they not let you do jury duty
@@drak_darippa Because the Aussie government & media hates the guy they mentioned.
@@drak_darippa because of the corruption...governments typically don't want educated people on juries sadly
@@drak_darippa I think for jury duty you have to be unbiased
@@drak_darippaEssentially, you’re supposed to not look at any news during the trial because you have to be unbiased, one time someone watched the news and explained it in the court, the entire case went back to square one.
I assume it’s the same with TH-camrs, especially journalists.
We are finally at the point where TH-camrs are no longer just TH-camrs. So many are now just branching out to fulfill roles previously filled by traditional television network content. Except now they have more creative control and they cut out more of the middlemen, so in many cases it feels like the content is actually better.
And we lost most investigative reporting in Australia, the news is a joke
Eh, at the same time advertisements and social media companies are fulfilling the middleman role more and more as things go on
YES. this feels so accurate. i'm watching things like reporting on corruption, fraud, etc. i'm seeing journalism covering things all over that aren't being reported in the news. i'm seeing actual independent news channels. i'm seeing medicine, health, etc.
there's a bunch of bs, so you have to comb thru to find the REAL stuff, but it's there. it's really and truly there.
and a great platform to help creatives, also.
Nice to see that there still are real journalists out there and not just clowns screwing everyone over for a mediocre story.

Thank you for giving a shout out to Friendly Jordies, he has done so much to expose corruption in politics in Australia but also to support charities and raise awareness of social issues for many who do not have a voice. He is also hilarious, have seen him live shows twice now and I was laughing so hard I was crying.
My respect to Jordies and Coffee, it’s very difficult to talk about these things exactly because of the repercussions that may occur. In Ecuador we had a presidential candidate get assassinated for trying to fix corruption and it seems that anyone who has good intentions here has something terrible happen to them. It’s sad to know that so many places around the world have corruption that I would have never expected but definitely respect those who cover these things. Once again, well done Jordies, well done Coffee, I am looking forward to watching that collab!
These journalists are everywhere just like during the panama papers having the Maltese reporter getting killed while exposing corruption. Hopefully more gain big public platforms that may help in keeping them safe. Hopefully what grows here in Australia or in America can spread and grow into a network too big too fail or take down. Corruption has seeped into mainstream media for too long

Friendlyjordies is a true legend. Even after life threatening sh*t happened, he STILL is going hard on telling the truth and uncovering corruption 🤘
Charlie you're an absolute legend covering this. He's been fighting this alone for a long time and its fantastic this has some light being shed on it.
Friendly Jordies is one of the few channels that does genuine, decent journalism . I remember him from years ago doing the VB longneck sketch and i see him now doing some of the best journalism and research around .
Jordan is my hero, genuinely. This guy constantly and consistently puts himself in harms way to show us the truth, its insane.
This chap is what investigative journalism should be. He personifies the courage necessary in highlighting the balderdash and malarkey inherent in individiuals and organizations that thoroughly enjoy the protections of local and state governments.
Jordan Shanks is an international hero. We desperately need people like him and his team across the world, I'd love to see channels like his based in the UK, USA, etc.
I would love a channel like this in America, they'd have a lot of work to do
Thank you for recognising this amazing Australian creator. He definitely doesn't get enough credit.
