About this listen

Long term belligerent lefty journalists and rabble rousers Alex Whisson and Ray Grenfell talk politics, philosophy, Alex’s terrible fashion sense, the likely end of the habitable planet and whatever else they may happen upon in their sardonic ramblings.


Drawing on decades of experience in social movements and twenty years as co-hosts of the Indymedia radio program, Alex and Ray dive deep into theory, fantasy and practice to hopefully arrive at somewhat thought-provoking, or at the very least, mildly entertaining ends.

    Mar 8 2023

    Alex and Ray talk about how they both came to political activism in Perth before spiralling into a good old ramble on the changing culture and nature of the left; the S11 demonstrations; refugee rights; protest camps in Perth; stolen buses; identity politics, Extinction Rebellion and the hyper real.
