First up are the proposed Greens amendments to the government’s Help To Buy program to impose rent caps and limit negative gearing and capital gains tax (16:55). Is it juvenile student politics to not give property barons backrubs? Then an update on Israel’s destruction of Gaza and the imminent ground invasion in Rafah (45:17). Did you know that there are Labor MPs who privately commend Adam then vote for war!?!?! Finally, a call to action (1:02:50) and Abbie Chatfield, call us.

113: Is Negative Gearing Political Poison? ft. Adam Bandt

Krazy Katter vs the Satanic Olympics. Emerald and Tom unpack the anti-labour Labor party’s CFMEU-busting legislation that was rushed through Parliament this week (11:52). Then they are joined by Remah Naji, the newly announced Greens candidate for the Brisbane inner-south seat of Moreton (39:27). “Colourful” MP Graham Perrett has announced his resignation, and Remah is a former Labor member who realised that the ALP was standing in the way of change. As a first generation Palestinian migrant and community organiser, what is her plan to get some real representation for Moreton?

140: Krazy Katter, CFMEU & Greens for Moreton ft. Remah Naji

In this bonus episode for Patreon subscribers, Emerald takes Tom on a deep dive (!) into the life and unexplained death of Harold Holt, Australia’s 17th Prime Minister. Who was the man himself? What happened on that fateful day when he went swimming and never came back? What are the best conspiracy theories? And how hack is it to make jokes about the swimming pool named after him?

----------

Subscribe on Patreon to support the show and check out over fifty bonus eps with guests like Lee Rhiannon, Geraldine Hickey, Max Chandler-Mather, Michael Berkman, Wil Anderson, Cam Wilson, Tom Tanuki and Jon Kudelka, and deep dives into topics like intergenerational warfare, Taylor Swift, Ralph Babet, THE GIANTS movie and the life of Bob Brown, when Friendlyjordies owned us, war crimes, vaping, psychedelic-assisted therapy, killer robots (with Emerald’s sister!), a debrief of the 2022 federal results, whether the Greens are too woke, the 18-year plan for Greens government, whether lawns should be banned, Greens memes, bad takes, Joe Hildebrand’s small brain, CPAC, Aussie political sketch comedy, internal Greens party shenanigans, and whether a Greens government would lead to the apocalypse.

Deep Dive: What Happened to Harold Holt? (Teaser)

A short little ten minute debate about Raygun. Emerald and Tom answer a listener question about writing to your MP and what is the best way to get them to listen (11:35). Then it’s a smorgasbord of Labor cowardice and disappointment. First, Vic Labor has abandoned their commitment to raise the age of criminal responsibility to fourteen (17:31). Next, federal Labor seems set to reject a full ban on gambling advertising (28:51). Also, Labor has backtracked on their promise to revise religious discrimination laws (37:41). Then a look at the new AUKUS 2.0 agreement and how America is altering the deal and we should pray they don’t alter it any further (44:11). Finally, a call to action (1:07:40).
