The Double Disillusionists

In 2017, everything’s different. Malcolm Turnbull’s an insult comic, Pauline Hanson’s being taken seriously, Cory Bernardi isn’t (okay, that’s not different), and Bill Shorten is on course to finally win an election without doing the numbers beforehand.

And then there’s Donald Trump, sworn enemy of the media and concerned friend of Sweden. Our own politicians don’t know whether they want to be him, be with him, or shout at him down the phone.

How on earth did we get here, and where’s the exit? Co-hosts Andrew P Street (Fairfax columnist and author) and Dom Knight (The Chaser, ABC Radio) have a few ideas. Their brilliant guests – commentators, comedians and political insiders – have better ones. Join them on stage for another instalment of the now-monthly political chat slash comedy show that’s like Q&A without any attempt at balance or objectivity – but with swearing.

This event will be recorded as an episode of Dom and Andrew’s weekly podcast, which may also be found here. And if Donald Trump or Malcolm Roberts tweets during the show, there will be a prize for the best reply.
