Agree with your takeaways. Would just add that COC is one of the exceptions to most of this criticism - he’s genuinely funny, not an ex sportsman, and has a moral centre that comes through as well. Rarity on Aus commercial radio and I think we’re lucky he chose to come out here

Finally watched this, excellent as always. The end of Mitch’s series/specials always leave us with a slightly sad “I really hope he gets to make more of these” feeling.

Is there any part of this thing that doesn’t look like a scene from an 80s Paul Verhoeven movie about the future?

Would that guy have had anything to do with axing Tonightly, which wasn’t perfect but felt like a genuine attempt at something new (and was on the way to being great)?

Agree with the sentiment, but surely it’s time for these articles to start articulating what they propose as the alternative to this 80-year US hegemony project rather than telling us what we already know (US go cray-cray, Aus should politely leave the room)

Also, how good does “Chancellor of the Exchequer” sound? Way more fancypants than “treasurer”. Imagine if that was on Jim Chalmers’ LinkedIn. Alpha profile.

Don’t you just love how enshittification means you no longer have any control over your apps or notifications? The best you can do is politely ask apps to show you more or less of something, which they might or might not do depending on who-the-fuck-knows what criteria?

Sleepytime is one of the best episodes of any tv made. That final sunrise shot and orchestra crescendo gets me every time.

Thank you for putting into words the disappointment and melancholy I have been feeling when still making my twice yearly visit for the same classic chicken fillet (fresh) I have been ordering since 1999.
