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.

Darren Watson , Wellington blues icon and all ’round nice fella, swung by for a chat. DW’s never been afraid of speaking his mind on political issues, as anyone who’s seen him alter the lyrics mid-performance of blues numbers to ridicule National supporters can attest.
Darren’s new album “Saint Hilda’s Faithless Boy” is out November 1st on Red Rocks Records. Release parties are in Wellington on the 21st October at Ruby Lounge and in Auckland on the 23rd of October at Juice Bar.

In this episode we slander interview an absent guest , partake in the great tradition common to all enlightened cultures of forcing eachother to admit who we voted for, and reminisce about a time when BP could combine every sin on the books and yet still get it right.

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!

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.

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:
