We woke up on Sunday and the world was the same. In our final episode for this special Federal Election season James, Nick and Bryce share their experience of election night 2019.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week the Daily Telegraph tried to take down Bill Shorten's mum. That played out as well as could be expected. Hosted by James Colley and Nick Fischer Produced by Bryce Halliday whose amazing mailing list can be found here. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Just a dizzying array of gaffs and boomer nonsense played out the day that we recorded this but the main things that happened this week are an incredibly boring debate between Scott Morrison and Bill Shorten, and Pauline Hanson did an interview on A Current Affair where she played the victim to her own decisions. Hosted by James Colley and Nick Fischer Produced by Bryce Halliday See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Another terrible week! Mostly overshadowed by the Water Buybacks scandal but here's what we're talking about: Palmer United Party is polling quite well. Get Up! made a pretty weird misstep in an Abbott attack ad. Rowan Dean has boycotted personal hygiene and boomers are boycotting paying for that opinion and DON'T YOU DARE think about modifying the ANZAC biscuit recipe. Also James' computer didn't record his side of the conversation so all we've got is the recording Bryce made of the Skype call. Ain't technology grand? Sounds okay though. Stick with it.  Hosted by James Colley & Nick Fischer Produced by Bryce Halliday See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There's finally an official election for which we can give you the analysis you so desperately didn't ask for! This week: Notre Dame caught fire and for some reason old mate Malcolm thinks this is something which needs Australian money to fix. The Ecuadorian Embassy released footage of Julian Assange trying to do a kick flip. And Israel Folau teaches all of us, you simply must post. Hosted by James Colley and Nick Fischer Produced by Bryce Halliday. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We're back, motherfuckers. Sorry for calling you motherfuckers. It's Stop The Posts Electoral Season We recorded this episode the night before the election was called meaning that we have already been personally aggrieved by this campaign. We'll be talking Captain Get Up, the most baffling thing on earth, Vegan protests, and Adani being greenlit. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We swore that we wouldn't come out of retirement unless there was a new Prime Minister and Australia delivered once again. Thanks to regular listener and friend of the show Peter Dutton for his inspiration. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
James and Nick talk about wages, Pete Evans, and a truly bizarre pitch for the worst political party that has ever been pitched. Support the show: Patreon.com/StopThePosts See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Raise the bat! Stop The Posts turns 100!  We're celebrating with a new RSS Feed. Is that a terrible gift? Absolutely! But if you can read this than you did it well enough anyway. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bob Hawke has a few sick burns on the SSM plebiscite. Also after yet another violent tragedy in the USA, Australia's lingering smugness around its gun laws pops up again. Stop The Posts now has a Patreon. If you enjoy this show and would like to contribute a little something to the costs of hosting the show online and the hours it takes to put this show together each week, that would be just bonza. Visit: https://www.patreon.com/stoptheposts Bryce is fine, guys.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nick and James are a little excited this week that Australia has announced its very own Space agency. Plenty of unexpected developments in the SSM debate. Apparently dogs have an opinion on this. What next? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The SSM debate has taken a few strange turns this week. But on a lighter note, Tony Abbott's onion eating antics have made a powerful comeback. Also we swear we were all in the same room when we recorded this. We have famously not cracked remote recordings. I have no idea why Nick sounds like he's on a Skype line. I hope you can bear with it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We vaguely struck on a theme this week. Covering stories which mostly seem to have been published to stir up nonexistent outrage over Benjamin Law, Malcolm Turnbull, and some baby. Also this week we're looking for feedback on whether or not starting a Patreon to fund this whole shenanigan would be a crazy idea or not. If this is something you'd be interested in hit us up on Twitter: https://twitter.com/stoptheposts Or Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Stopthepostspodcast/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The postal plebiscite is going ahead, if we all debate REAAAAAALLY nicely. Also Malcolm dropped a c-bomb on Tony.  Stop the Posts is produced by very nice man Bryce Halliday. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Hat trick.

It's all marriage and lawyers this week. The same sex marriage campaign ads have begun and the "No" campaign is displaying the usual amount of self awareness. Dutton thinks refugee lawyers are "unaustralian", while other lawyers are apparently a little sheepish about telling their colleagues they are against equal marriage.  But also WE DID THREE WEEKS OF EPISODES IN A ROW. And the podcast is vaguely popular now. You can now follow Stop The Posts podcast on twitter: @stoptheposts Produced by Bryce Halliday (with help this week from David Muratore) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Holy Moses! Two episodes in a fortnight? Can we keep it up? Who knows! Statues and plebiscites continue to be an source of much consternation in this week's news. Produced by Bryce Halliday at Nauti Studios. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Hey it's us! That's right your podcatcher is still checking this feed and there's something new in it! We have no idea how long this will last but James and Nick are in top form, the season naming format is emojis now, and the most baffling news events of the week went down after we recorded this. Oh joy. Produced by Bryce Halliday at Nauti Studios. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Surprise! We're back. James and Nick are back to review all the major news stories of 2016. All the politics here and abroad, the scandals, the many many MANY deaths and... hooooooo-boy why did we want to do this again? This is the first of two episodes, covering the news of January to June. A chance to look back and remember all of the things that really should have dominated the headlines had they occurred in any other news year. Produced by Bryce Halliday at Nauti Studios.

Bryce is back! How does the show change? There's a little bit more to read in these descriptions. This week Triple J considers moving its Hottest 100 countdown (which Macklemore won in 2012) to a different day. Malcolm Turnbull pleads with the Australian people to vote for marriage equality. Malcolm Roberts and Pauline Hanson gave their first speeches to our new senate. The tour was pretty great guys, thanks for asking. Produced by Bryce Halliday. Recorded at Nauti Studios.
