Tom is joined by guest host, Greens Senator for South Australia, Barbara Pocock! (6:53) Did Labor actually do something and improve the CGT and negative gearing? How has homelessness gotten so bad? Why have the NDIS cuts slipped under the radar? And did renters receive anything whatsoever to help?

Tom is excited that he got owned in the most recent Pauline Hanson Please Explain cartoon. And then is joined by guest host, co-host of Lamestream, Scott Mitchell!

(44:21) Finally, updates on Greens candidate Hannah Thomas and her legal case against NSW Police for their assault on her during a pro-Palestinian protest. (59:44)

229: One Nation Targets Tom ft. Scott Mitchell

In our HUNDREDTH bonus episode for Patreon subscribers, Emerald and Tom discuss Guy Rundle’s new piece on the state and future of the Greens. First, a bit of a chat about Guy and his history with the party. Then, they unpick his article “Colourless Green Ideas Schlep Furiously: The Greens are at a turning point. And taking the wrong one.” Is Max Hyphen-Name leading the party down a dead end? More like Guy Grumble, amirite?

Excerpt: We discuss Guy Rundle’s take on the Greens flop era

Tom is joined by guest host, spokesperson for the Anti-Poverty Centre, Kristin O’Connell, to talk welfare. First up, the government plays weird games kicking people accused of crimes off of support, but for what aim? (7:49) Then, the government announced sweeping reforms of the welfare sector and mutual obligations. (27:20) Except, these reforms seem awfully familiar. Do I smell Scomo?
