Serious Danger

Friendlyjordies did an episode about the housing bill and our live interview with Max Chandler-Mather! Did you hear bruz-es and sisters, that Tom called the PM a naughty word!?! Jordies is the tone-police and we are crime! So as a bonus for Patreon subscribers, Emerald and Tom do a reaction video to the Jordies ep, and get into a bigger conversation about his channel, ‘left’ media, ‘shill’ media, and how the various hacks and rusted-ons are reacting to the HAFF bill dispute. We have many thoughts - 75 minutes worth!

Subscribe on Patreon to support the show and check out all our bonus Patreon eps with guests like Geraldine Hickey, Michael Berkman, Wil Anderson, Cam Wilson, Tom Tanuki and Jon Kudelka, and deep dives into topics like war crimes, vaping, psychedelic-assisted therapy, killer robots (with Emerald’s sister!), a debrief of the 2022 federal results, whether the Greens are too woke, the 18-year plan for Greens government, whether lawns should be banned, Greens memes, bad takes, Joe Hildebrand’s small brain, CPAC, Aussie political sketch comedy, internal Greens party shenanigans, and whether a Greens government would lead to the apocalypse.

The Teals are doing a Maccas run, want anything? Emerald and Tom look at another bad bill that the Greens have to oppose (sigh) - is the Nature Repair Market Bill healing? Then the most hated man on Sussex Street, the Griffith MP with the biggest ego in the country and the smallest heart, student politician and Greens housing spokesperson, Max Chandler-Mather returns to the show! What’s next in his ongoing campaign of evil? Will he again cowardly stand by and do nothing as the Prime Minister is brutally called a rude word in a joke during a comedy show by a coked-up former Triple J host? Finally, a call to action.

Friendlyjordies discovers the podcast. Tom’s made a flying fox folly. Emerald and Tom are back on the housing bill, and remarking how Max Chandler-Mather manages to live in so many people’s heads rent free(ze). And speaking of rent controls, Emerald calls out the rhetoric that they don’t work, and gives a cheat sheet of how to push back. Finally, a call to action.

In this bonus episode for Patreon subscribers, Emerald and Tom talk about Ben Roberts-Smith, who is a war criminal. It’s cool to say that now, he can’t even defo us! What happened, why is the media defending him, and how does it all reflect on the country, the military and the government sending troops off for dodgy reasons? We stand with Yumi Stynes.

In this bonus ep for Patreon subscribers, Emerald and Tom talk vaping. Is it a public health nuisance, or the tool that will finally end smoking? Are IGET boxes the new cigarette butts? Then Emerald is joined by tobacco harm reduction expert Dr Colin Mendelsohn to talk harm reduction, misinformation from the medical community, why adults should be allowed flavour, and wonder why vaping is illegal when smoking isn’t going anywhere.

Emerald’s returned, meanwhile Tim Smith is threatening to. Emerald and Tom learn about the Petroleum Resource Rent Tax (PRRT) - and wonder why the government is going to make less from it than student loan indexation. Speaking of, that’s the second topic! How much did the HECS-HELP indexation cost Emerald? The PM got a free education, why can’t you? Finally, a call to action.

Live from Brisbane, it’s one year to the day since the 2022 election! Tom is joined by (this week’s Patreon bonus episode guest) Geraldine Hickey and Max Chandler-Mather, the member for Griffith and Greens housing spokesperson, for an insider chat about the first year of the Albanese government. Then they jump into a deep dive on the HAFF housing bill and future fund. Why is it bad? Why won’t the government negotiate? Why do they HATE Max so much? And what was written on that piece of paper Albo handed them?

In this bonus ep for Patreon subscribers, it’s the first half of our sold-out live show in Brisbane, on the first anniversary of the 2022 election and the Greenslide! Tom is joined by Aussie comedy hero Geraldine Hickey to chat election night memories, coming out as Green to her father, and the passing of Barry Humphries and the ugly rise of anti-trans rhetoric in Australia. The second-half with Max Chandler-Mather is coming soon in the main feed, but this hilarious chat with Geraldine is a Patreon exclusive.

The hip hop treasurer. Tom is joined by guest host from Wankernomics and The Chaser, Charles Firth, to react to the reaction to the budget. What does Charles think of the Greens? After a decade of the LNP, is mediocre the new good? Did anyone watch Peter Dutton’s budget reply? Then, a year to the day since the election, how has the last year gone and how can we get more Greenslides? Finally, a call to action.
