Door-knocking in a coma. Emerald is joined by Amy MacMahon, Greens state MP for South Brisbane! First up an update on Amy’s return to work following a horror car crash earlier this year. How long until MPs resumed being mean to her in parliament? Then this week Labor gave a big sloppy kiss to gas with its Future Gas Strategy Analytical Report (11:54). How screwed are we? Why don’t the cowardly Labor backbenchers just quit and join the Greens? Then, an update on Israel’s war on Gaza and the campus protests across Australia (25:42). Finally, a call to action (47:34).

SUPPORT THE FREEDOM FLOTILLA

OSLO, NORWAY: The Freedom Flotilla Coalition’s (FFC) vessel Handala set sail to several Northern European countries today. Handala’s “For the Children of Gaza” mission departs from Norway to challenge and break the inhumane blockade of Gaza and to shed light on the consequences of the inhumane measures taken against Palestinian children by Israel, with the support of the US and other countries, despite the global outcry for a permanent cease fire and the end of an occupied Palestine.

Live from Good Chat Comedy Club in Meanjin/Brisbane, Emerald and Tom are joined by the federal MP for Griffith, Max Chandler-Mather! After some obligatory ‘Arj Barker vs mums’ discourse, it’s on to a big chat about the state of housing in Australia. How did it get so bad? Can anything be done? Was Max good on Q&A?

The Greens are a nut, they’re crazy in the coconut. Emerald and Tom discuss the horrific stabbing attacks in Sydney last week, the crappy media response, and wonder what will be done to fix Australia’s mental health crisis (7:15). Then they talk about Senator Nick McKim (McKrazy) and his grilling of the naughty Woolworth CEO Brad Banducci in the senate supermarket inquiry (45:10). Why does that man hate answering questions? Finally, a call to action (1:02:17).

In this bonus for Patreon subscribers, live from Comedy Republic in Melbourne, Tom takes Emerald through the fast times and bonkers views of Jim’s Mowing founder Jim Penman. Sadly his political party was only an April Fools joke (Tom being the fool), but his views on how to fix the world are… intense. After the live segment, Emerald and Tom reconvene to read a crazy Vice article about the living legend. Jim’s Eugenics?!?
