In episode 435, hosts Trevor and Joe discuss various topics, including election results and voting discrepancies in the UK, comparisons to French elections, and the concept of proportional representation. They delve into generational differences in problem-solving approaches, citing a desire for simple solutions among older generations and a lack of nuance in millennials. The episode also tackles identity politics versus class-based economics, and the perceived failures of neoliberalism. They analyze current Australian politics, including the controversies surrounding Labor Senator Fatima Payman's actions and the support for nuclear energy. Furthermore, the discussion touches on Joe Biden's recent poor performance, Trump’s immunity claims, US foreign policy, and the role of Huawei in global infrastructure. The show finishes with lighter anecdotes, such as humorous political ads.
