Jeremy has launched his next project: Well May We Say! The first episode features former SomethingWonky Guest Dave Erin Riley and the fine folk at The Weekly Hour tell us what’s Stuck In Their Craw. We look forward to seeing you over at WellMayWeSay.com and via iTunes. PS This week’s guest host may actually be someone very familiar to Wonkateers… his name starts with D.
A slightly self-indulgent farewell, but with the best of intentions. How much has changed in 200 episodes since June 2012? The answer may surprise you. NOTE: Dave and Jeremy will both be announcing new projects via the SomethingWonky iTunes and SomethingWonky.com, so if (despite this particular episode) you’d still like to hear more from us, right here is where you’ll hear about it first. We love you all, and will miss you in the meantime. (And, Daniel? We’re so very sorry.)
Dave is back, so is parliament.
Featuring Guest Dave Wil Anderson. And look, technically there was a running sheet, and we mentioned it at the beginning, but it’s not really an accurate description of the episode. It’s kind of a wonderful ramble through everything. The original summary was actually the most generic lefty podcast list as follows: Malcolm vs the poor! War on women! Plebiscite! General whinging about LNP politicians! Nauru! The ABC! But that’s not exactly what we talked about. We may also have lost 10 minutes due to a technical issue, so there’s a sudden jump about two thirds of the way in.
