The team are together again in the studio for a rundown of politics from across the globe! In case you needed more U.S Election in your life, we run through the events 24 hours on from Trump's historic victory. After that we fly back home to look at how Queensland's new government has already started disappointing the Indigenous community and we discuss the finally confirmed age minimum coming to social media in Australia. Freddie and Bridie also try to launch a coup against Nyah. It doesn't work. They're dead now. (or are they?)

The U.S Election, Betrayal in Queensland & Social Media Age-Gate

Live while votes were still being counted, Represent hopped on the airwaves for a special one hour episode covering the day so far and what's to come under Trump's America. We cover reactions from the U.S and back home and discuss what the future holds. During this episode we break the news, just minutes after it was announced, Donald Trump crossed the 270 electoral college vote threshold to win the election and the presidency.

Represent's Live USA Election Special

Nyah is back from Adelaide, Bridie has crawled out of her AirBnB and Freddie has broken free of uni to return after a week off and bring you the latest in politics! Abortion has made it's way into the Australian political conversation, why are we talking about it and could we follow the United States by rewinding reproductive rights? Greens senator Lidia Thorpe made international headlines by heckling King Charles on his visit to Australia. Was it the right move or a fruitless publicity stunt? Finally, the government has promised to abolish much-hated debit card surcharges by 2026. Is this the cost-of-living policy we need (lol no) or a move to be forgotten at the polls next year?

After cheating death for two weeks, Nyah makes her triumphant return to the Represent studio! After a brief(ish) catchup, we dive into the world of social media age restrictions, Liz Truss' visit to Australia (spoiler alert: nobody cares!) and how our leaders commemorated October 7 (spoiler alert: with crazy double standards!).

Bridie and Freddie (sans Nyah again) are back again with more news and a new playlist! While you won't get to hear the playlist (listen live for that!), you'll hear us talk about the evolving crisis in the Middle East, how bored we were with the Vice Presidential candidates' first (and probably only) debate, our frustration with the government's inaction on gambling advertising and our excitement over the ACCC taking the supermarket duopoly to court!

Bridie, Freddie and Nyah are back to break down a decently quiet week of Australian Politics. Bridie fills us in on the drama engulfing the Jacqui Lambie Network. Nyah works overtime with two segments on a State vs Council spat and celebrating beginning of our Right to Disconnect. Also, we finally have the numbers on the controversial caps on international students and Freddie has them along with reactions from all sides of the issue.

Plus, we talk Hurstbridge's Wattle Festival, Veep, and a million other random things that have nothing to do with AusPol!

Bridie, Freddie and Nyah are back in the studio for your weekly dose of the week that was in politics!

On our roll call for this week:

Freddie fills in the class on the states vs Commonwealth spat over public school funding and the team discuss whether private schools deserve any taxpayer dollars.

Nyah talks about all the new NDIS reforms. Do you find them confusing? Don't worry, we do too. And governments seem to hate tackling it too. We talk about why.

While we weren't invited to Chicago for the Democratic National Convention, Bridie has been keeping track of it from afar so she can give us all the news from the windy city. Spoiler alert: they're having a great time over there!
