Gareth and Olly get into a massive talk about speech - the freedom and limitations of it, and how context plays a crucial role in the use of certain taboo words.

It was so massive that it was decided to split the episode into two. Part 1 is now (obviously) with part 2 being released Friday, June 15.

In this episode: Stupid Political News & our US segment.

Part 2 will have the Australian segment and rants.

Thank you for listening!

Olly and Gareth were hungry. They were waiting for food. Singing happened. Rants became infomercials for debate programs and other podcasts. Everything went a bit odd. IT WAS A TON OF FUN!!!

US segment: the mid-term elections are coming up and we look at the elections happening now that are setting up the contests come November 6. We also talk about the roll of identity politics in 2018.

Australian segment: The Royal Commission into Misconduct in the Banking, Superannuation and Financial Services Industry is currently in full swing. What has been uncovered will make you both amused and angered.
