Auspol Snackpod: Australian Politics and Memes

Wow! We hit 100 patrons this week! Which means at the end of the show we will be premiering the Auspol Snackpod Theme Song (Drum 'n' Bass remix)! So get your good headphones, drop your pingers, and vibe out to the Snackpod remix.

The show this week is really long because there's just too! much! damn! news!

Entree: What's going on with the Family Court merger?

UFU: The South Australian Government is plunged into minority after a whole bunch of alleged corruption

Coronas: Vaccines will be rolled out in approximately 2 phases

First Nations: The Court of Appeal found that Dorothy Lawson's family land was illegally taken away from them after a legal fight that has been going on for a hundred years.

Positivity Corner: We have two small positivities for you - the Government lost their appeal to deport the Biloela refugee family, and Craig Kelly was suspended from Facebook!

Fashy Australia: The Online Safety Bill will be very bad for sex workers. For more watch this video from hole_money (https://www.instagram.com/tv/CK0QIvphVzj) and read this article from Samantha Floreani (https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/7124518/proposed-online-safety-measures-may-do-more-harm-than-good/)

SPOTW: Whoever wins, we lose. Alien vs. Breadator. Facebook vs Fox. We chat a bit about the Facebook news shutdown, and while we don't come to any particular conclusions, we did figure out that everyone is absolutely wrong about this.

Mains: We go over the news about sexual assault in Parliament house, with Britany Higgins and others coming forward, and the Liberal Party doing everything in their power to cover it up. This story is potentially very triggering, it starts at about 1:14:00 if you don't want to listen to it.

And you'll just have to listen to the end of the show for our Pupdate! (and the Snackpod remix)
