We talk about Alex Dyson’s longest job interview ever. Both Allegra and Alex chat about dirty tactics, having a sense of humour while campaigning, how the cut and thrust of politics can make two candidates who want the same thing be at each others throats. Allegra Spender also has some great advice for Alex Dyson should he get into parliament. You’ll finish this episode thinking that these two individuals could indeed make Australia a better place. πŸ€‘ CHIP IN TO OUR PATREON https://www.patreon.com/ARationalFear Here's all the fun stuff you get when you sign up to Patreon. 🎧 Get an ad-free and sponsor free version of the show. 🎟 Get early access and discounts to live shows. πŸŽ₯ Get early access to final videos, and draft edits of upcoming videos. πŸ‘¨πŸΌβ€βš–οΈ Make show suggestions. πŸ’¬ Get a link to the A Rational Fear discord.
