From the collapse of manufacturing in regional Australia to the psychological impact of Melbourne’s lockdowns, Samaras breaks down the economic, cultural and generational forces reshaping Australian democracy. He also explores why younger Australians are losing faith in the system, why many no longer believe they can afford children or home ownership, and how social media algorithms are accelerating political polarisation across the country.  Join my exclusive Mentored+ community:  https://mentored.com.au/become-a-member/ Subscribe to the Mentored newsletter here: https://the-mentored-platform-pty-ltd.myklpages.com/l/WWJGc5 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.","meta_description":"In this conversation, political strategist and pollster Kos Samaras explains how Australia’s political landscape is fragmenting beyond recognition.&…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3454,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/straight-talk-with-mark-bouris-4048066/episodes/politics-expert-on-the-the-rise-of-one-nation-gen-z-s-voting-shift/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/straight-talk-with-mark-bouris-4048066/politics-expert-on-the-the-rise-of-one-nation-gen-z-s-voting-shift.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
