About this listen

Serious Danger is a podcast about our broken political system and its greatest threat: the Greens. Join traitorous SJWs Emerald Moon and Tom Ballard as they discuss the #auspol news of the week, chat to key figures from the left movement, and talk about how to win a future for all of us. This is NOT an official Greens party podcast, but it IS the official podcast of trying to not go insane while experiencing the sh*tshow that is Australian politics. / Produced by Michael Griffin / Twitter & Instagram @SeriousDangerAU / patreon.com/seriousdangerau / seriousdangerpod.com

She and Tom catch up on some Greens news - Hannah Thomas has her charges dropped but that doesn’t fix her eye (6:58), Asta Hill has a new job as mayor of Alice Springs (13:26), and Adam Bandt also has a new job as CEO of the Australian Conservation Foundation! (22:01) Then some big announcements about what’s up next for Serious Danger (30:50), along with a big chat about the future of the movement. Corporate power is kicking goals, so how can the Greens rethink their approach?
