Happy Easter! We will be back with a new episode next week, but we hope you enjoy this unlocked episode from our Patreon feed!

Tom and Emerald speak to Paddy Manning about his epic history of the Australian Greens movement, “Inside The Greens: The Origins and Future of the Party, the People and the Politics.”

Since July 2023 we have been recapping Paddy’s history of the Greens on our Patreon, and now that we finally are through the book, who better than its author to tell us the story of its creation, his feelings about the party, and his expectations for its future? We are going inside inside inside Inside The Greens!!!

On the panel: content director Jack Toohey, Simran Kaur from Friends That Invest, buyers agent Eddie Dilleen, Queenie Tan from Invest with Queenie, policy analyst Cian Hussey, and member of the Victorian Socialists, Jordan van den Lamb, best known as Purple Pingers.”
