With the recent Referendum and world events, politics have entered our group chats more than ever.

Life’s overwhelming enough as it is without trying to get up to speed on where we should or shouldn’t stand on the big issues that really matter.

To break down the ridiculously complex world of politics, voting and how Aussie Government works, we’ve brought in the host of political podcast ‘Left Right Out’ - Elfy Scott.

Elfy’s here to teach us why our vote matters, how to figure out our political values and practical hacks for finding resources that you can actually trust.

Mamamia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the Land we have recorded this podcast on, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.

’I’ve lost track of how many times I use algebra each week. What a lifesaver!’… said no adult ever.

We learned a lot of things in school that we’ve never actually needed to know in real life. Most of us have never been asked to quote Shakespeare, or recite Pythagoras’ theorem or… square dance. Meanwhile, important things like how to nail a job interview, how to do taxes, and whether buying or renting is a better financial option were conveniently left off the curriculum.

That’s where we come in. Comedian Bec Melrose and Mamamia’s Emily Vernem are here to walk you through the lessons you’re too embarrassed to admit you still don’t know. So sit back and relax, school is in session.
