    175: Election results 2 - Could be better!

    Emerald and Tom share crazy voting booth stories, before taking a look at the results of the 2025 federal election, one week later. Things only got worse! First, what happened with Griffith and Max Chandler-Mather, Australian politics' own Frank Grimes? (He challenged the status quo, then everyone celebrated his death, because being called out is annoying.) And then, Adam Bandt is out! Who do we speculate as the next Greens leader? How can the Greens possibly fight the corporate power that has united to squash the hopes and dreams of change? What “mandate” are the haters even gloating about? Finally, a look at some of the best and worst takes.  ---------- Just released on Patreon - “Leo Puglisi from 6 News on how teens are schooling ‘real’ journos” The show can only exist because of our wonderful Patreon subscriber’s support.

    172: Why LNP & Labor won’t fix housing ft. Max Chandler-Mather

    Epic rap battles of history - Biggie vs Tupac, Kendick vs Drake, DJ Albo vs Peggy Sue. Emerald and Tom take a look at the week’s election news (10:57). Dual-citizenship takes down the Greens candidate for Franklin, and is Purple Pingers to blame for squatters in Carol’s empty house? Then they are joined by the MP for Griffith and Greens housing spokesperson, Max Chandler-Mather! (26:13) Is this the week the major parties went mask off? Will the competing Labor and LNP housing policies just compete to do the most damage? Why do the Greens want a public developer? Finally, a call to action (1:03:33). ---------- Just released on Patreon - “Inside The Greens #9 : The Rudd years, GFC, Ronan Lee & a Lib-Green Love Affair” The show can only exist because of our wonderful Patreon subscriber’s support.

    BONUS: Fight for Fremantle ft. Amy Warne & Kate Hulett

    Eighth up in our series of bonus episodes interviewing candidates for the upcoming federal election, Emerald meets two of the progressive candidates vying for the seat of Fremantle in Western Australia. First up is Amy Warne, environmental activist, mum and Greens candidate! (1:44) And then Kate Hulett, photographer, business owner and independent candidate! (28:33) Are indies and teals just faux-Greens who waste valuable resources splitting the vote and campaigners? Meanwhile, is the Greens brand so tainted that potential voters will stay away? How can the the left work together to keep Dutton out and stand up to Labor? Does a rising tide lift all boats? ---------- These bonus election episodes can only exist because of our wonderful Patreon subscriber’s support.
