My childhood friend Alex Dyson is a very nice and very funny man who I got to host the triple j breakfast show with for four years. Now, somewhat insanely, he is running as an independent candidate in our home seat of Wannon in south-west Victoria. It's a seat that's been held by the Liberals for 64 years and is currently held by Minister for Education Dan Tehan by a margin of 10%. We drank a lot of wine, watched the godawful Leaders' Debate and had a long and fun and slightly-tipsy chat about his politics, why he thinks it's worth running in a safe seat, political ideology and Lupe Fiasco. We laughed, we reminisced, we respectfully disagreed, we danced. Enjoy! Become a Patron of the show (please) yummy money yum yum ENOUGH is coming to Sydney Comedy Festival for 4 shows only next week ENOUGH is coming to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August @alexdyson Alex's very good instagram ARTICLE: Legit Political Candidate Alex "Sesh Gremlin" Dyson Revealed Why He's Running PM Julia Gillard Addresses the End of the World Cause of the Week: Dangerous Females (dangerousfemales.com.au)
