Is the protest vote actually a trap? 

Brent is joined by Joe Hildebrand for a candid, no-nonsense conversation about the state of Australian politics. With voters increasingly frustrated and looking for alternatives to the major parties, we’re cutting through the noise to discuss the current climate of discontent, the mounting pressure on our political institutions, and the very real consequences of the shifting national landscape.

We’re examining why the traditional two-party system is under fire, why "burning the place down" might not be the fix we need, and what’s really driving the current wave of political chaos. If you’re tired of the "bad joke" of modern governance and want a straight-talking breakdown of where we go from here, this is the discussion for you.


The Protest Vote Dilemma: Why disillusioned voters are flocking to minor parties—and whether it's a strategic move or a dangerous gamble.


The "Hot Mess" Factor: Discussing the recent internal and external chaos currently engulfing emerging political movements.


The Working-Class Reality: Brent and Joe break down the disconnect between political rhetoric and the actual needs of Australian battlers.


Stability vs. Disruption: Can the system be repaired, or are we heading toward a permanent political realignment?

No spin, no fluff—just a deep dive into the real issues facing Australia today.
