This week I take a look at the Australian election results, which wound up playing out rather contrary to popular expectations, and try to figure out what that means (despite knowing very little about australia). Then Nate Bethea of Trashfuture and What a Hell of a Way to Die joins me to break down exactly why a US/Iran war would be an unmitigated disaster, we also discuss other foreign policy issues, Trump potentially pardoning alleged war criminals, Brexit, the EU elections, milkshakes, how elitist conmen are benefiting from modern right populist movements, and more.
