This week, the fell*s discuss the death of Graham “Richo” Richardson and John “Sponsor” Laws, and what this means for the era of “bloke” politics and aesthetics that they represented. We also chat about the coup of 1975, probably garbling some of the nuanced history that makes it such an interesting event. We chat a little about the Greens and the NSW Socialists Conference, which Tim went to over the weekend.
