"Votes cannot be cast after the Poles are closed." This is one true and factual statement tweeted by the US President, Donald Trump, as the world awaits US election results. Here in Australia, our existence in the future is doing nothing to help us glean who will win in this knife-edge race. So instead we do what Australian media does best, fish for an Adjacent Australian Angle ™ ​with thanks to The Chaser and Ronny Chieng. Big Mob Brekky is here to shake up breakfast television, even if it's only for one week — for now. Shahni Wellington and Ryan Liddle, hosts of NITV's NAIDOC Week breakfast TV show, Big Mob Brekky, join Stop Everything! to share their vision for this hotly contested network TV slot. The program will broadcast live from Taronga Zoo, Monday to Friday the week of November 9-14, with special segments presented by Luke Carroll, Elaine Crombie and appearances from Emma Donovan, Mitch Tambo and more. Reputation Rehab: Zoe Norton Lodge and Kirsten Drysdale talk to BW and HR about their new ABC TV program which looks at the impact of public shaming and what can be done to rehabilitate the shamed, and the shamers.  Show notes: "votes cannot be cast after the poles are closed" https://deadline.com/2020/11/donald-trump-tweet-censored-poles-1234608879/ Compulsory voting in America?
