Os and Scott kick off the show by talking through Dave Hughes' latest meltdown and the bizarre and disturbing allegations raised by comedian Melanie Bracewell.
They step through a number of news items, including Barnaby Joyce's failed attempts to defend Pauline Hanson, the latest round of job cut at The Sydney Morning Herald and the Age, and revelations that Israel is trying to influence Labor's national conference.
Finally, they discuss Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' by reviewing the film, talking about why it's become such a cultural phenomenon, why the movie's politics and message feel so timely, and the right-wing culture war it's become embroiled in.
