Nobody knows exactly when we will next get to vote. It could be thrust upon us at a moment’s notice. You could be at home, you could be at work. You could be out, it might be dark, you could well be drunk. So it pays to think CONSTANTLY about how you’d vote or else you might get caught out and end up voting for the wrong people in a kind of panic. In this episode we moan about there basically being nobody to vote for, identify who we think are the “Most Egonomist MPs”, Dan outlines precisely what it will take to get him to vote Green, and Dave reminisces about ripping off his shoddy neighbor ‘s unsecured wireless internet.

Prendegast’s campaign material showed photographs of her literally burning ratepayers’ money*, people voted in droves for her, and now Wellington’s through the roof at securing the rugby sevens in Wellington for another 6 years after she had earlier turned down the opportunity to host them permanently. You haven’t got a clue, have you? Meanwhile, local hero Terry Serepisos shares some get-rich-quick wisdom: Don’t pay your bills ever at all. And certainly not your tax, dummy.
Plus; ROYALTY:
Also: Why We Vote on a Wednesday . We being Americans and Wednesday being Tuesday because Dave’s mind is all wrong.
*Fireworks. I’m clever.

Bit of a busy weekend so I haven’t had a chance to listen back to this one yet, but better get something out before you all forget we exist. Will add in tags and a blurb later on.
update: HEY! well it turns out we talked about ACT again! Specifically David Garret and his online dating conquests, among other things. Hurrah.

Given that right wingers seem to be perfectly capable of destroying themselves, we devote our attention to attacking people we actually kind of like; Hippies, Hippy Councilors and The Kids.

Teachers are striking. I bet it’s because they’re greedy little masked bandits hellbent on holding the nation’s children to ransom. What say you? We corral a real live teacher into the studio to hear their terrible demands. WARNING: What you’re about to hear my shock you.

Race, religion, sexuality, Australia and Maurice Williamson – a mix as volatile as a meth lab in an earthquake, of which we’re fairly certain some poor fuckers are desperately cleaning up right now.

The Christchurch Earthquake is serious business and has had a huge impact on the lives of the residents, BUT: as with any news event there are peripheral political, financial and media fuck-ups that make up the bread and butter of this podcast. So, with our full sympathies going out to the victims of this horrible event, let’s commence with the piss-taking…

NEWMAN!
Today we recap our interaction with the Coastal Coalition , and the steamy depths of wacky beliefs held by other, smirking , ACT party affiliates, including their boners for stuff like Glenn Beck’s Restoring Honor rally and Ayn Rand, homicide groupie , because to people who hate other people, apparently this video is sublime:

Obviously an astute and intelligent group of people here. Today we bring a dose of historical context, plus the news that everybody who disagrees with us on this are awful people; FACT.
