Join us as we try to set Dan up with Deborah Hill Cone. Have a look at her sterling wit here , just before John Campbell has to actively resist punching her in the face.
But mainly we take a look at Andrew Little – can he be Labour’s Don Brash In A Good Way Don’t Get Me Wrong Here? Can he save us from the horrors we so accurately predict (will be Bill English’s fault)? It’s all a bit of a downer – BUT! Comedic relief is here in the form of a brand new ACT MP! Hurray!

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…

Welfare reform – it’s about time those social parasites learnt a lesson about the value of the dollar; Don Brash, John Key, Paula Rebstock – we’re looking at you.
FIFTIETH EPISODE! Well, the fiftieth episode that we’ve released, that is. To celebrate this milestone, we suggest that our listeners have a drink.

Everything. This episode is about everything. Special focus on Wellington’s street people, John Howard’s CV catching up with him, underpants, local body elections, Peter Bethune , and charity. Nice.

Australia is going through a bit of an upheaval at the moment, but it’s still going to be shit. Dan and Dave reminisce about the Nats’ promises to stem the flow of Kiwis crossing the ditch, illustrated by this billboard of theirs which invoked that most Australian of political institutions: Kidnapping . Meanwhile, grumpy Brit voters are getting what they asked for . And at home, drink driving goes to the next level of ridiculousness with these two winners.
If you’re wondering about this donk business…

EPISODE TEN! What a milestone. For what was supposed to be a weekly podcast, hitting episode 10 in week 3 of our existence is an incredible testament to the productivity of good, hardworking New Zealanders. So too is this episode. We talk about election promises, parity with Australia, labour unions – ALL THE FUN STUFF! God, we’re a crack up.
