Episode Synopsis

Chris talks about how neoliberalism and capitalism shape the housing system, framing insecurity as a personal failure rather than a structural issue. From Victoria’s public housing demolitions to media narratives that blame individuals, Chris introduces research and examples that reveal how these ideas distort the conversation. The episode explores why this framing matters, how it silences systemic solutions, and what collective responses like stronger public housing and tenant solidarity could look like.Resources used/for more information see:Renters And Housing Union (RAHU)Council to Homeless PersonsMelbourne City Mission (MCM)Launch HousingCommunity Housing Limited (CHL)
