Well May We Say episodes

  • Episode 205 "WTF are the Greens *doing*? (feat Nick Carr)

    00:01:23 The great Greens hope!

    00:02:53 ...dashed. First, Ukraine...

    00:05:24 ...and then supporting the ludicrous extra private health extra subsidy for over 65s/

    00:08:36 finally taxing family trusts isn't something to be ashamed of or walk away from

    00:13:38 talking of Ukraine - did anyone making Australia buy US military equipment notice how the US sabotaged their systems at the critical moment this week?

    00:21:26 over 65s aren't going to cancel private health if don't get an extra discount over everyone else, don't be absurd

  • Episode 204 "It's all Connected!11! (feat Nick Carr)"

    00:01:36 How to be Heard if you're Not, you know, Fighting For Billionaires

    00:05:53 Greens could go after the RBA - the media would love to have them on to call them "economic illiterates" etc, while the Greens could talk through them...

    00:27:25 How TF has One Nation gone from 6% to 23% in one year? Exciting new policies? Compelling new candidates? Vast sums of billionaire money, commercial media promotion and online propaganda that were redirected from the LNP after they failed to get Dutton up? Oh, yeah, maybe that one

    00:35:29 Hanson goes after gay and lesbian Australians (where the rest of her party just pretends they're "only" going after trans people), showing once again the value of solidarity.

    00:37:00 Milo licks the boots of anti-immgrant fascists - and then they turn on him!

    00:41:33 The original antifa

    00:44:46 Climate disasters now (Nepal) and upcoming (everything Labor's doing)

    00:45:17 (aside) AFR complaining about the "unintended consequence" of small businesses that use trusts to avoid tax now having to either pay a lot of money to restructure (and keep avoiding tax) OR having to pay tax - like that's a bug! And Chalmers then treating it like it is!

    00:51:26 The "climate footprint" is bullshit - what matters is the climate shadow

  • Episode 201 "It All Comes Together" feat Nick Carr

    00:01:59 A listener's fauve-rites (Off the Rails already)

    00:03:34 Back on the Rails

    00:04:30 RBA raises interest rates expressly to stop unemployment falling (note: to stop it FALLING, not rising), and nobody takes accountability for the awful call

    00:20:03 "Let's do the Budget" - Labor remembers capital gains should be taxed, but undermines it by grandfathering everthing and also, you know, brutalising people on the NDIS and starving the poor.

    00:28:29 Why incentivising investors to build new houses is an awful idea - they'll stick Australia with shitty rental-quality "new" housing stock for decades

    00:39:45 The media campaign to revive the LNP

    00:42:18 Angus shows that the LNP would somehow be even worse - promising to whack permanent residents by cutting them off from access to services their taxes pay for; bringing back an indexation policy so bad that Johnny Howard had to undo it when he was Fraser's treasurer...

    00:44:40 Australia becomes a new front in the war on trans people - but first, some good news with Giggle v Tickle (No 2)

    00:48:55 She could have been Amanda Mander and a man demander, but alas

    00:50:00 The "genocidists' hurt feelings" royal commission

    00:52:36 The brave flotilla heroes

    00:55:30 call for more heroic tales

    00:56:06 Stupid dispatches from FART island

    01:05:39 Angus's mindless and deeply embarrassing war on trans people

    01:06:19 "Define it!" say morons who can't come up with a definition themselves

  • Episode 200 - Only Happy Stuff (feat Nick Carr, Amy Remeikis & Tom Ballard)

    Amy and Tom join Nick and Jeremy to celebrate how much Australia has improved over 200 episodes of WMWS!

    Featuring

    * The ALP finally going to tax gas exports so Australia gets some revenue from those resources! (^1)

    * The ALP finally undoing Howard's tax changes that broke housing! (^2)

    * Racists finally feeling shame again (^3)

    * Further progress in BRS finally facing accountability (^4)

    * Real Labor - a way around the problem of potential left voters who hate the word "Green"? (^5)

    ^1 Actually not happening.

    ^2 Ah, yeah, not happening either.

    ^3 Okay actually they got support from the national media

    ^4 Fine, actually being criminally charged made the media suddenly forget the Federal Court already found he did this shit

    ^5 Only Jeremy liked this idea

  • Episode 198 "The Case Against John Howard" (feat Amy Remeikis)

    How did we get here? Where did it all go wrong? On the thirtieth anniversary of the ascendancy of the lying rodent, Amy Remeikis joins Jeremy and Nick to discuss how all the stuff you're angry about was set in place by the country's worst prime minister (fight us).

    1 hr 23 min
  • Episode 197 - Everything's Going So Well! (feat Nick Carr)

    17:31 What "international rules based order". US declares "might makes right".
