About this episode

Scott and guest co-host Tina Quinn discuss the by-election loss of Labor to One Nation and the controversial March for Australia rally.

Scott is joined by guest co-host Tina Quinn from the Fourth Estate podcast. Tina and Scott talk about the news out of the stunning by-election result in Western Australia, which saw One Nation defeat Labor in a safely held seat, after Labor ran a gas lobbyist as their candidate. Then, they turn to the March for Australia, which held its one-year anniversary rally on Sunday. This time, the march openly advocated for Australian neo-Nazis, raising questions about the media that tried to shield the march from criticism. And finally, Scott and Tina review News Corp and Gina Rinehart's big ideas event. Support Lamestream by visiting our website to sign up and become a subscriber.
