It’s beginning to look a lot like Ham-Mas. Emerald and Tom talk through the latest on Israel’s attacks on Gaza and the fallout from the Greens walkout in parliament protesting the government’s refusal to call for a ceasefire. Then Adam Mayers from the Members United joins, to discuss their run for leadership roles in the CPSU (Community and Public Sector Union). He describes the push for more democracy, better pay and conditions, and to give the members a say in whether the union should still be affiliated with the ALP. Finally, a call to action.

As a special bonus punishment for Patreon subscribers, Serious Danger morphs into That’s My Jam - the first and only recap show for Kitchen Cabinet, Annabel Crabb’s ABC light entertainment and light propaganda pollie dinner party programme. Emerald and Tom recap the Bridget McKenzie and Peter Dutton episodes, and ponder - Does this show make our politics better or worse? Should we view politicians as people? Is it all a big f-ing joke to these media elites with their Midwinter Balls and Qantas Lounges and Barnaby Joyce calling Patricia Karvelas “PK” and… Ahem. Enjoy!

In the second part of this bonus series for Patreon subscribers, Tom takes Emerald through chapter one of author Paddy Manning’s epic history of the Australian Greens movement, “Inside The Greens: The Origins and Future of the Party, the People and the Politics.” Who was the first green party? What is the connection between Bob Brown and the death of Jimi Hendrix? Why are greenies always named Brown? Will this have to become a true crime podcast after a MURDER!? Also, some colourful commentary about former senator Brian Harradine that frankly no one better show news.com.au.

“ABC star Tom Bollard has unleashed at a woman he met in a pub who voted ‘No’ in the Voice referendum.” Emerald and Tom (Bollard) discuss the current state of Israel’s war on Gaza and the Palestinian people. Why has Australia’s political response been so weak? Then some positivity - the Green MP for Auckland Central, Chlöe Swarbrick, joins to recap last weekend’s election in Aotearoa / New Zealand. Despite a conservative switch of government, four new Green members are joining parliament. What does it all mean? Finally, a call to action.

It’s the morning after the Voice referendum, and Emerald and Tom have a look at the results so far and what we can take from the unsuccessful campaign to enshrine indigenous recognition and a Voice into the Australian constitution. Every Greens seat voted Yes (take that future CPRS-style attack campaigns!) but sadly the clear majority of Australians chose No. Where did the campaign go wrong? What next for the country? Finally, a call to action.

In this bonus episode for our Patreon subscribers, Emerald and Tom are back from overseas holidays and Emerald is packing some guilt. With the world falling apart, is tourism immoral? Does it gentrify communities? Is the plaything of the wealthy? Does it exacerbate climate change? Are there unexpected benefits? And what nice thing will greenies ruin next?
