In this very special Thursday edition Van and Ben look at the Queensland election campaign and Clive Palmer's grubby templated campaign of lies as well as how his private jet subsidy from Morrison is helping fund his political party. 
Van explores the nature of the US electoral system while Ben outlines the current position of Biden vs Trump.  And people are so excited in Melbourne that they are lining up for steaks at midnight!

Also our dog Germanicus defends the house from someone walking past!
