Ep38: Commission Royale

from The Battler · host The Battler

In this week’s episode, Los Guerreros talk about the precipitous idiocy of a “Royal Commission” into an attitude. As always, things have become six times stupider since the podcast was recorded, so listen here for the talking points you’ll need to use when people bring up the Royal Commission that has actually now been announced. They also talk about the wonderful country of Venezuela and its obscure, evil Northern Neighbour; their beloved bigheaded Pakistani comrade DrewP and his gallant defence of freedom at a protest in Sydney, met with a deplorable act of police aggression (pictured); and chat terminal shit about Jane Austen, Alexis Wright, James Joyce and Ezra Pound as if the mics had been switched off. Thanks as always to “Dictator” Dan Dare for production. Song is No Strain by the Southend Rainbows. This is a public episode.
