On this very special return episode of Political Football, TP is joined a very special guest and close personal friend (someone he sees a few times a year), Mr Mark Thorsby.

Mark and TP reflect on their recent transcontinental travels and offer some interesting but not particularly useful insights.

They also reflect on the recent Olympics and Paralympics successes for Australia and why the rest of the world doesn’t get it the way we do down under.

Finally, they give the predictions for the AFL/NRL finals as it gets down to the business end and we answer a fan question (after picking through hundreds).
