Hours of secret recordings obtained by the ABC show that a global neo-Nazi group is recruiting in Australia.

'The Base' has been grooming young men who espouse racist views to join them, and in Perth, it seems to have had some success.

Today on The Signal, we hear the audio of the prospective recruits.

What inspires the extremism of the group?

And should it and others like it be declared terrorist organisations in Australia?

Featured:

Alex Mann, Reporter, ABC Background Briefing

Jason Wilson, US-based Australian journalist

Dr Anne Aly, Labor MP and professor specialising in extremism and counter-terrorism

Dean Smith, former political candidate, Pauline Hanson’s One Nation Party
