Greetings Fearmongers —
Recorded live on stage at the Adelaide Cabaret Festival — In order for this political comedy podcast to qualify for a “Cabaret Festival” we brought the 2018 ARIA winners for best comedy Bridie and Wyatt to sing songs at the start and the end of the show. Cabaret fans would say they’re the best bits. But we have some other great bits too we fix South Australia’s drop in tourists, we chip in on Izzy Folau’s Go Fund Me, and try to get our money back on the F-35 jet fighter.
I’d urge you to listen out for the excruciating audience reactions during Lewis Hobba’s Logies rant in which he bravely rips into Adelaide a little too hard in front of the good people of Adelaide. Also in this show Cal Wilson weaves a beautiful allegory about millennials growing horns. Jon Brooks argues that it’s about time ‘the left’ had a rebrand. James McCann says Australia should stay a constitutional monarchy. Georgie Carol claims that germ warfare is grossly overrated. And journalist Andrew P. Street tells his story of seeking asylum in Adelaide.
