03: Adam Bants (ft. Adam Bandt)

First up we send off Peter Cundall, Australia’s favourite greenie grandpa communist. Emerald and Tom catch-up on the Sydney local council elections (6:08). Then, we tackle some real life and death stuff - death tax fear-mongering (10:03) and what’s behind Australia’s declining birth rate (19:56). Later the federal Greens leader Adam Bandt joins to discuss the upcoming election, getting rid of LNP and One Nation, and how a Greens balance of power could fix our country (31:19).
