In our inaugural episode, we delve into the issues that matter to you the most: Direct Action, subtitling of free-to-air TV, scandal amongst the Young Liberals, and the front (as well as the other parts) of Vladimir Putin's shirt.

Episode 1 - The Weekly Hour

This week on The Wikka-wikka-weekly Hour, Tony Abbott has an enlightening interview with "Chris", Stella Young tragically stops being alive, the generational bargain comes under fire, and the Coalition polishes up it's GP co-payment scheme to a mucky shine.

Episode 4 - Toned Abs

We're back, after the mysteriously cancelled week. Join us on this episode for our thorough investigations into Australia's wealthy avoiding paying their tax, advertisement controversy during cricket broadcasts, and our very special interview with one of the leaders of the Illuminati.

Episode 6 - The Illuminati's Tax Evasion

The Weekly Hour! Listen to it, probably!
On this one: a spooky ghost haunts our studio, the Australian Government is objectively proven to be torturing refugee children, Ricky Muir tells us what he thinks, the one informal vote of the Liberal Party's leadership spill tells all, Apple steals the sun, and Brian Williams is a bit of a twat.

Episode 11 - Royal Commission Into Brian Williams' Erectile Disfunction

This time, Ex-Premier Campbell Newman fails to relaunch his career as a man who tells a ghostwriter what to say about him; current Premier Mike Baird fails to connect with the youths, and also the law; the GP co-payment is done away with in a particularly gruesome manner; Fairfax mistakenly labels a man a terrorist; Post-It notes finally get the telling-off they deserve; and Clive Palmer tells Tony Abbott to kill himself, but he’s a politician instead instead of the usual 'everyone', so it’s newsworthy. Also, we changed our logo.

Episode 14 - Dead, Buried, Cremated

Tony Abbott and Joe Hockey take some 100% necessary luxury flights to definitely important parliamentary business events on the tax-payer dime; Karl Stefanovic says some words again; shocking revelations from the Moss report show that Scott Morrison is Scott Morrison; Miranda Devine uses her jernalizm skills to deduce the real reasons why teenage boys join ISIS; Dick Smith moves into polidicks; politicians talk some more about gay marriage but don’t do anything about it; and the countdown to the election officially begins on the rocket clock.

Episode 17 - Taxpayer-Funded Planes For Junior Jihadis

This week: Joe Hockey gets a talking to about Joe Hockey's sabotage of Joe Hockey's tax revenue; a certain Almighty One weighs in on Australia’s surveillance state; Australia gets set to spend four million dollars on some cool anti-immigration propaganda; we take a look at Hillary Clinton’s presidential candidacy as well as the first wave of the Republican Presidential Circus; China blacklists rowdy tourists; a “selfish rabble” cause a stir on the front page of the Herald Sun; and the Prime Minister enacts some sensible policy about vaccinations. He was bound to get something right after all this time.

Episode 20 - Hillary Clinton’s Chinese Surveillance Vaccination

The Prime Minister drinks a beer without lemonade in it; The Prime Minister pushes to give $4 million to a climate skeptic to fund a ‘Consensus Centre’; The Prime Minister of New Zealand repeatedly bullies a hospitality worker; the ANZAC spirit is celebrated around the nation with cynical commercialism; The Australian Vaccination Skeptics Network makes a brilliant analogy; Peter “The Worst Guy” Dutton tries to convince the refugee prisoners on Nauru to permanently settle in Cambodia; Peter “My Job Is To Commit Atrocities” Dutton tries to send a 5-year-old, PTSD-suffering girl back to Nauru; and we premier the heart-wrenching trailer for the Government's new asylum seeker soap opera.

Episode 21 - The Skeptic's Guide to ANZAC Consensus

Fred Nile is up to his wacky antics again;
a woman manages to successfully carry out a pregnancy, to the delight of the entire world;
the Australian Greens get a new leader, but no new controversy — much to the disappointment of every media organisation;
Tony Abbott probably didn't do a homophobic thing, but Fairfax really wish he did;
the Herald Sun tell us about another "selfish rabble" who organised a protest completely unrelated to their own interests;
and Thomas finds out the truth about halal certification, and how it definitely funds terrorism directly, definitely.

Episode 23 - Halal Certification Of The Royal Baby

Due to unforeseen laziness outside of our control, The Weekly Hour team wasn't able to do a show this week. But rest assured that I middle managed the hell out of it anyway. Instead I've put up a clip you kids might enjoy. Enjoy! Enjoy.
