Up Klose with Karl
It's a robust family affair with listener Karl. He's Mel and Dom's cousin and a keen listener of the Chronicles, and he's lucky enough to get his mug on camera in this 4-way free-for-all to discuss accusations leveled at Australia's Attorney General, Christian Porter, Joe Biden's mental state and U.S. politics, The Sopranos, funny movies, and Karl's favourite topic: conspiracies.
A Western Bloodbath
We wrap up the Western Australian state election shambles for the WA Liberal Party, give our thoughts on the Princess Harry & Princess Meghan on Queen Oprah Show, as well as Piers Morgan quitting his Good Morning Britain show. And we review Coming 2 America so that you don't ever have to watch it!
Give 2 Government: Gotta Get G2G
Joe Biden dropping bombs on Syria, our local Western Australian state politics with an election looming in less than a couple of weeks' time, the WAxit party's secession plan for WA. The Liberal and Labor parties tricking voters into handing over their personal details, tinpot dictator Premier Mark McGowan turning WA in to a police state and his announcement that he intends to keep the border closed long after the pandemic ends.
Fake Woke
We discuss Eddie McGuire being forced to step down as the president of the Collingwood Football Club, Tom Brady winning his 7th Superbowl, GOAT of world sports discussion, and Bruce Springsteen's ad for Jeep about unifying America during the Superbowl halftime break.
The Perth Lockdown Lowdown
Perth, our little self-isolated town at the bottom of the world has caught a curious case of the COVIDS, and we're coming to you from lockdown. The shorting of the GameStop shares and the battle between Wall St hedge fund players and Reddit consumer investors. Dom gives a thorough explanation of what shorting is. Lionel's Messi contract leak saga. And then we laugh out loud while discussing the Operation Odessa documentary.
