ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Today is the second and final part on our history of the Australian right's tendency to tear itself apart every so often and be reborn anew, like the world's most boring phoenix. This episode covers from 1943 to the present. Jesse and Liam talk about the emergence of the modern Liberal Party, it's impressive success over an 82 year period and ask the question: are we in the fifth iteration of Australia's very own human centipede?
