G’day Fearmongers —
I’m writing to you from my home, in self-quarantine for a virus known as freelancing. I haven’t seen anyone in months. I did manage to get a couple of rolls of toilet paper before the panic buying really set in.
I have rolls to spare. Make me an offer.
In the meantime, Prime Minister Scott Morrison always has the best advice — in these viral pandemic & toilet roll barren times Scotty says — “Make ‘em a Curry”

We’re going (semi) pro — if you enjoy the podcast, and the videos we make like Who Is Responsible For The Australian Bushfire Crisis? narrated by Tim Minchin. Please chip in so we can build up to creating 1 podcast a week and 1 live show a month and 1 video a month. All of this is expensive and we need about $10k a month to make it happen. Currently A Rational Fear is built with favours from smart people with great hearts, but I’d like to make those hearts cold and offer them money from time to time. So please if you enjoy our work chip in.
Thanks for listening —
Cheers
Dan
