Luister naar Auspol Snackpod: Australian Politics and Memes

Whatup snackerfans! We're back with a one-off episode we owe to our Shadowy Financiers! Noon read Weatherboard and Iron by Barnaby Joyce, the pettiest book ever written. We miss you and hope you love the episode

Well, that's it! We're out of here. And we're leaving you with one last episode that unfortunately has the worst sound quality since like episode 5. Hopefully it's still listenable and you enjoy hearing me and Zac say goodbye. Huge immense thankyous to all our listeners, friends, supporters, patreons, snackerpals, well-wishers and onlookers, and especially to the people who sent in potlucks for our final episode. This week we're serving up... NOTHING. And you'll have to listen to the end for our last ever Pupdate. Please don't sign up to our patreon! Please don't follow us on social media! Please don't tell your friends about us! You can read transcripts at www.auspolsnackpod.com [http://www.auspolsnackpod.com] but you probably shouldn't do that either. We have plans for the future so keep Auspol Snackpod on your feed and come visit us on FB here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/auspolshitposting [https://www.facebook.com/groups/auspolshitposting] Much love from Zac and Noon and Dante and Bagel.

We're very sad to announce that Auspol Snackpod is coming to an end. We've got a regular news episode for you this week, then next week will be some kind of special finale episode. It's your LAST CHANCE to send us potlucks about news, politics, or memes, or really anything and we'd really love to hear from you so PLEASE record yourself speaking for a minute and send it to us at contact@auspolsnackpod.com [contact@auspolsnackpod.com]. We also have another bonus episode to do and our plan is to answer EVERY SINGLE QUESTION OR REQUEST all in one bonus episode so please suggest topics! Even if you're a $1 patron, this is a liquidation sale, EVERY TOPIC MUST GO! We have a couple more episodes in the works, and some schemes for the future, but this is the end of Snackpod as a weekly news / current affairs-ish sort of show. It's been our absolute pleasure and honour to make the show for you all and we can't thank you enough for tuning in every week and supporting us with your time and haha reaccs.
