Fatima Payman gets a staffer to google “gen z expressions.” Emerald and Tom look at the protests against the Land Forces “defence” expo that upset Australia’s free speech-loving death merchants (9:56). Then they are joined for the first time by a sitting minister of a government! Rebecca Vassarotti (aka Vanessa Amorosi), the Greens Member for Kurrajong, Deputy Leader of the ACT Greens, and also the Minister for too many things to put here (36:07). Finally, a call to action (1:06:59).
