Understanding The Australian Election ft. Left Right Out

With the Australian Federal Election coming up on 21 May, Sal & Al brush up on their politics before they hit the polls. The gals chat with Elfy Scott and Justine Landis-Hanley, the hosts of the political podcast Left Right Out, to get the lowdown on democracy.  They look at how the Australian voting system actually works and why you might want to reconsider voting for the same party as your parents.  Plus, a quick-fire game of which parties have the best policies for everything from housing affordability and HECs debt to LGTBQI+ rights. Big ol’ disclaimer: We couldn’t possibly cover everything in a single podcast episode, so please make sure to do your research before election day.    LINKS & RECEIPTS  Listen to Left Right Out podcast How Does Voting Actually Work?  Follow Left Right Out on Instagram  ABC 2022 Voting Compass  CHUCK US A FOLLOW Follow Two Broke Chicks on Instagram  Follow Two Broke Chicks on TikTok Join our Broke Chicks Club Facebook Group   CREDITS  Hosts: Sally McMullen and Alex Hourigan  Executive Producer: Pariya Taherzadeh  Editor: Bamby Media  This podcast is powered by Finder and part of the Nova Podcast Network.  Head to www.finder.com.au/two-broke-chicks for an episode transcript.  Thanks for listening.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
