The Conditional Release Program

**** In this episode we mention Ron DeSantis being quite reasonable about the FBI raid - we got this one wrong. Turns out he's still a completely cooked idiot and he was talking about a previous event, defending the police in a completely different scenario. Jokes on us for assuming DeSantis could be reasonable. Whoops!***

Last week Trump's residence at Mar-A-Lago, Florida was searched by the FBI with a warrant from the attorney general, Merrick Garland and signed by a federal magistrate. Both of their lives are now being threatened by MAGA hat wearing idiots.

Did Trump declassify the documents? Is he up for treason? Will he be able to run in 2024?

The answers are all pretty disappointing, but the answers are all in this weeks episode.

This week is just the rabbithole, folks. No segments! We will be doing every second week as a deep dive into a single topic for a while.

News, BPFW, SovCits and Pete/Ralph will be back next week! But it's probably going to be Pete. Ralph deleted his twitter. IT'S NOT FAIR! WHYYYY!

What are political honeymoons and how long do they last? The media has speculated that Anthony Albanese's political honeymoon is over on a regular basis but his approval ratings remain at historic highs. Meanwhile, we eulogise Olivia Newton-John and Judith Durham. And with fall out, from the Adelaide Crows 2019 motivational camp continuing, we ask what the hell was the club doing and how could it so badly fail players who came forward too complain. 

This week Jack looks at the Uluru Statement From The Heart and explains some of the lesser known elements of what is, to quote Joe Biden, 'a big fucking deal'.

But it's just a big deal to me - cause I'm not allowed to swear this week! Yep. My niece Stevie has told me that she likes the podcast - but doesn't like the swearing. Since you ingrates don't share the episodes enough we need LISTENERS - the younger the better. So I've taken a week off the F word. It's been hard. Real hard.

We also announce a format change - after some hard thought over cold beers we have decided we will do a rotation of full episodes every two weeks- with BPFW, SovCits, Pete and the rest - and every other week simply feature a rabbit hole deep dive into a single topic. It gives us time to 'do our research' - sometimes a week just isn't enough!

In news we look at The Donald being raided by the FBI - it's still early days but we had to stick the boot in. We also look at cookers in general who have been behaving very badly.

In SovCits we take a post from Rob Sudy explaining the Chicago Style Manual and its relevance to sovcittery and Pete doesn't have a big week but for the sake of the podcast we dredge up some nonsense from a while ago, slap some paint on it and laugh at him because he's a dipshit flat earther.

Enjoy!

This week we focus on 3 anti vaxx players who used the pandemic to step into the spotlight, we look at some of the most outrageous claims about vaccines - SOS revisits the best day of her life, and Sandee shares the work of a hero.

If you think you've had a bad week it's got nothing compared to Alex Jones' week. Not only facing financial ruin - but due to a leak of his text messages from HIS OWN ATTORNEYS it's looking like he might be up for some criminal charges too.

So now it's a good week. Let's celebrate the downfall of an actual villain. 

Ron Watkins takes an L but not all cookers lose their primaries - despite this, the right have taken a massive blow with voters turning on the GOP for their insane stance on abortion. 

Turns out women do vote, lads. Might want to jot that down. 

Enjoy! 

Newspoll reveals Albo is our new God (for now). Not bad for a bloke his opponents said Australians didn't know and couldn't trust. "A great tree has fallen" Archie Roach's death and the loss to the nation. The Indigenous Voice and associated referendum -- how does the government go about ensuring its success? Listeners letters. Convicted paedos out on bail. Labor's childcare policy is middle class grift. And are JTI's beloved Blues gone? 

We are back with a mammoth episode for our 101st - this time we are looking into the 'laptop from hell'. Yes, Hunter Biden did leave his laptop at a computer store in Delaware. No, it wasn't the Russians.

But can we trust what's on it? Kinda. But we can say one thing for sure - if this was a stich up, they wouldn't have given him such a massive schlong.

Hunter is a crackhead and an idiot. We have a look into his ridiculous laptop saga.

In the news we look at the recent outrage around the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne from the usual idiots who are terrifed of rainbows but see the value in urine. We also look at Rod Culleton losing in court AGAIN and the Trump family get a final tax break out of Ivana and start planning their 'garish' family Tomb. But are there enough spots for Eric? The short answer is no.

In SovCits we have Idiot of the house MacKay who annoyed the wrong magistrate and got nowhere with his fleshly bullshit.

Pete lost to a much funnier Senator Babet (AKA Senator Grindset) who is on an absolute roll on Twitter.

Enjoy!

The foot and mouth disease threat in Australia. Is the Opposition playing politics in demanding Australia close its borders to Indonesia? Well, yes. The Two Jacks consider the consequences of an outbreak but with the right biosecurity measures in place, border closures could only be considered as a last resort. The economic scourge of the world, inflation, is hitting Australia hard with CPI figures for the June quarter out soon. What tools does the government have at its disposal to slay the beast? Albo brings the love to the ABC and the sword to the ABCC and we lament the passing of Collingwood defender "Here comes Billy" Picken. 

The Libs can't decide whether to have quotas on female candidates and JTI thinks if they can't fix it, they will become unelectable. Meanwhile, local media fail to report on the real causes of Sri Lanka's economic crisis, preferring either to focus on the chemical fertiliser ban or ignore it completely. The world beats a path to the door of golfer Cameron Smith and HK Jack provides his list of three new AFL MVPs. 

We made it! Almost two years of looking at cults, crims and con artists. We wanted to celebrate by making a super special episode that we worked VERY hard on...

Thanks for sticking with us - long time listeners will enjoy this one and newbies might get a bit of an idea of where we came from. Either way - it's been fun to look back over 100 weeks of ridiculous conspiracies and fringe politics.
