Living The Dream

Well it’s been a while, but Living the Dream is back!   Jon and Dave welcome in 2024 by discussing how in 2023 the Albanese Hegemony disintegrated. We discuss what the Laborist project looked like coming out of the 2022 election, and how over 2023 between the costs of living crisis and the failure of the Voice referendum the wheels fell off and more importantly why we should or should not care.   Jon has been very busy being a historian you should follow him on the social media formally known at Twitter - @jonpiccini. Dave has been largely occupying himself with table top games but also has contributed to this research project Class and Capital in Australia   Stuff we read, listened to etc and may have discussed in this episode include:   Megan Davis Truth After the Voice Irene Watson There is No Hope in a Voice to Parliament Noel Pearson Boyer Lectures Laura Tingle Regaining control over the national political conversation will be Anthony Albanese's one great challenge in 2024 Jonathon Green Wither Progress?
