Скачать или смотреть EP15 - Identity Politics Has Taken Over… Is Anyone Paying Attention?

Australia is going through one of the most fascinating political shifts in years — from leadership spills to identity politics becoming the default lens for every headline. In this episode, we break down why young men feel politically abandoned, how gender representation is reshaping the major parties, and what it means for the future of Australian politics.

We dig into the growing divide between conservatism and progressive identity narratives, the strange new dynamic where three white men lose their roles and women step in, and whether that’s actually good leadership or just political theatre.

We also pull apart the chaos around COP bids, the Australian Government’s failures on the world stage, and why Donald Trump’s political style continues to influence young men globally more than any local leader.

This episode challenges assumptions, asks the uncomfortable questions, and cuts through the noise surrounding modern social issues, representation, political messaging, and the way Australia’s cultural landscape is shifting under our feet.
