Angriest Dancer Bird ,

Entirely necessary for your ear holes

My very favourite podcast, and a weekly must listen. It makes me sound like I have half an idea about what’s going on in Australia and the rest of the world at any given time!

Highly recommend these three very clever and very funny humans!

I look forward to this every week.

So much shade. Especially for Aus politics, which needs it.
