Season 4 Episode 13: Eggs
At The Drive Thru
Hi, Long weekend; long episode. The rolling atrocity and spiritual debt of the Gaza genocide. Chocolate eggs made it through the Red Sea after all.

Hi! Prime Minister Chris Luxon gets in hot water by smashing the Free Money button in his office, and has since promised not to do it again.

Season 4 Episode 9: Nactpoleon
At The Drive Thru
Hi, The National-ACT-NZ First coalition agreement(s?) are signed and New Zealand has a government. These foundational documents may promise things the parties have no intention of providing, contain contradictory wording, not add up, but what's new. We went and saw Napoleon in the theatres.
