157: Raygun’s $10K, nuclear costings, flag & prayer culture wars


Listen Later

The world unites to hate on Aussie national heel Raygun. Emerald and Tom take a look at the coalition’s costings for nuclear power, delivered on the last day of school on the back of a beer coaster (11:41). Meanwhile, Tanya Plibersek approves a bunch of coal mines and hopes we won’t notice. Then, culture war! (44:23) Sydney Greens councillor Matthew Thompson tried to end the practice of reading the lord’s prayer before parliament, and opposition leader Peter Dutton wants to stop having Aboriginal and Torres Straight Island flags at gov press conferences. Do symbols matter? Finally, a call to action (1:09:30).

We’ll be back with regular episodes on Jan 12th, but new Patreon bonus episodes are still coming over the break!
