Infinity Planet: The Mega Project North of Brisbane You've Never Heard Of!
Infinity Planet is one of the most ambitious tourism developments ever proposed for Moreton Bay, north of Brisbane. Pitched as a $2.6 billion tourism and entertainment city at Elimbah, just off the Bruce Highway, the project promises theme parks, global cultural pavilions, hotels, major event venues, retail, and thousands of jobs. In this video, I break down: • what Infinity Planet is actually promising at full build-out • who’s behind the proposal and where the investment is coming from • the planning rule changes being requested • what the project’s own environmental, bushfire and economic reports say • how similar mega-tourism projects have fared overseas and here in Queensland This video is an evidence-based look at what council is really being asked to approve, what history tells us about projects of this scale, and why the assessment stage matters more than the renders.

Why We're Starting to Self-Censor in Queensland
What happens when laws designed to reduce harm also introduce uncertainty? In this video, I take look at how Queensland’s new anti-hate speech laws may be affecting real-world behaviour - particularly for people trying to document events or discuss complex issues in good faith. This is based on a decision I recently made to remove a video from the channel after reassessing the potential risks. Topics covered include: The practical implications of the laws How intent and interpretation can differ The role of journalism and public interest protections Recent enforcement actions And how uncertainty can influence behaviour before anything even happens This video aims to explore the issue in a balanced and evidence-based way, without taking a position for or against the laws themselves. 🤝 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL Become a member (which gets you access to extra content): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqeYhVRqZF8rjafmep93PWg/join Or say thanks through Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/AdamRobertYoung

What’s ACTUALLY Changing in Brisbane RIGHT NOW?
This week, we take a closer look at what’s really happening across Greater Brisbane — and the gap between growth, pressure, and what’s actually changing on the ground. From housing affordability and supply constraints to ongoing rail disruptions and major policy shifts, there’s a lot happening. But as this update shows, activity doesn’t always translate into outcomes. We also look at: • the rise in luxury property alongside ongoing rental pressure • new development proposals and what they mean for supply • continued strain on the transport network • changes to youth crime laws and the debate around them • protests and public response to new legislation • and what’s ahead as Brisbane continues to grow Plus, we finish on a lighter note with a look at Brisbane’s music scene and upgrades at the International Airport. So while there’s no shortage of momentum across the region, the bigger question is how that growth is actually playing out day to day. 🤝 SPONSORS Get 10% off painting with YB Painting Services: https://www.ybpainting.com.au/thebrisbanechannel/ 🤝 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL Become a member to support THE Brisbane Channel and get access to perks and extra content: 👉 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqeYhVRqZF8rjafmep93PWg/join Or say thanks by buying me a coffee (or two… or ten…): 👉 https://www.buymeacoffee.com/AdamRobertYoung 📍 CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro 01:14 - The housing and rental situation this week 02:43 - An expanding homeless encampment 03:31 - Current home construction trends 04:27 - Discount on award-winning painting services 05:02 - Easing rules for more Brisbane homes 05:38 - Some new developments across Greater Brisbane 07:04 - Possible issues with planning tools 07:36 - More rail disruption 08:30 - A new City Glider stop 08:45 - Parking in the CBD 09:12 - Biggest damage from hailstorms 09:35 - More crimes added to Adult Crime, Adult Time list 10:35 - Progress of e-mobility consultation 10:48 - Hate speech law arrests 11:45 - Anti domestic and family violence inaction protests 11:53 - Questions around greyhound welfare at the Q 13:06 - New Olympic office in Brisbane 13:17 - "Making our Mark" - Olympic legacy for Brisbane? 14:12 - New refinery to make diesel from cooking oil 14:43 - New life sciences incubator opens 15:03 - New upgrades at BNE International Terminal 15:27 - QLD Music Awards 16:18 - Summing up 16:34 - GIVEAWAY!

So... THIS is Greater Brisbane this week?
This week, we take a step back and look at what’s really happening across Greater Brisbane. From major rail disruptions to rising construction costs, new transport laws, and continued population growth, there’s a clear pattern emerging. Brisbane is growing — but that growth is starting to put pressure on the systems that support it. So rather than just running through headlines, this video looks at the bigger picture. What’s driving these changes? How is Brisbane responding? And what does it all mean for people living in the region? Along the way, we also look at: what went wrong with this week’s rail chaos how rising fuel prices are flowing through into construction and housing concerns around proposed e-bike and e-scooter laws new data on cost-of-living pressures and how local councils are adapting to changing conditions Plus updates from across Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, Moreton Bay, and Redlands — including infrastructure projects, housing, and planning changes. 🎙 PODCAST LAUNCH The first episode of THE Brisbane Channel podcast is launching later this week. I sit down with Dr Tony Matthews to talk about growth across South East Queensland, housing affordability, and what the future of Brisbane could look like.

This week, we take a closer look at what’s really happening beneath the surface across Greater Brisbane. From conflicting crime data to pressure on the child safety system, and ongoing disruption across the transport network, this video goes beyond the headlines to explore the bigger picture.
