I like to think he might have learnt a few things since having Pete on his show. I think.

I feel like people having more free time on their hands due to the pandemic has to be a part of the spiked conspiracy theory buy-in and visibility over the last several months 🥴

Definitely being locked indoors, worried, uncertain and online is not a great combo...

I love the guest illustrator. Please make “Blocked by Pete Evans” enamel pins so we can form a webworm club.

Being blocked by the celebrity chef is something to be worn with eternal pride.

Loving the comic. Such a digestible way to go about it

"Digestible" is quite a good word for this shit!

Re “Reply All” they definitely do some great episodes, really liked the one on trying to find the song that someone could remember but couldn’t find anywhere. As for the “Yes, Yes, No” ones, they are great, especially the ones with Jason Sudeikis, those are hilarious.

I think - and I know this is a big call - it's probably the best podcast. It's just such a good balance of funny, intriguing, human, well produced, well researched - kind. Arghh it's just so GOOD!

You’re right that is a huge call and my first instinct was to say “No way” but then I looked through their archive and think you’re right.

Not many podcasts go from “Negative Mt Pleasant” to “Feral Pigs” to “The Secret Life of Alex Goldman” and have them all be good to listen to. Pretty the last one contains of the funniest things I have ever listened to, Alex - sitting down to shower.

Just great

That comic is brilliant, and really, really gross. Definitely gets right to the point: Flush the shit. P.S. I’m a wee bit jealous of your desk.

I don't have the desk in my possession yet, but it is tempting. The bed's a bit small. Glad you liked Dan's comic. I adore his stuff. Felt lucky he wanted to contribute to this edition!

I also wanted to say that I loved your interview on Armchair Expert with Dax and Monica.

If you venture onto the comments section on Advance NZ’s Facebook page, you find similar statements about Jacinda Ardern. It’s stated that she is under house arrest for being a pedophile, and that she’s on house arrest while being investigated by the SFO. It’s an example of how comments become more extreme as they build on each other. My favourite of course if from Natural News, that Ms Ardern is a man, and this is also hinted at in Advance NZ’s comments section. Like we all know about the ‘baby’ and the ‘nanny’.

Wow! I've never waded that far into the shitpond comments, but good grief.

Oooh yep - I've been down that tunnel. Universal stupidity, devoid of fact or logic. Really sad stuff.

Great comic - I too especially enjoyed the ninja assasin biding his time in isolation. No doubt a good time to consider his career choices. Perhaps that's why he didn't follow through, quietly sheathing his Kitana and boarding the next plane home. The court case you mentioned will no doubt result in no compensation for the injured parties involved, and the scurrilous rat involved will no doubt be popping up spreading shit once more. But hooray on the result. I note that said scurrilous rat is also based in Aotearoa (shakes head, sighs). Does Dylan Reeves have a folder on them too? I would enjoy finding out what makes someone pursue a first-term MP in a Victorian backwater from if not an ocean away, then at least a stretch of choppy water. Seriously wtf goes on for these people to join these dots?

That comic is so good. I can't believe that Advance NZ are going to be included in the multi-party debate, kind of makes me feel like their crazy beliefs are being validated. But it will be very interesting to watch!

Also, great episode on Armchair Expert, I love that podcast!
