Listen "The Mainstream S1E1: Optimism for Australia's Future"
Episode Synopsis
Join Daniel Wild and John Roskam for the first episode of the Institute of Public Affairs’ new podcast series The Mainstream.
In this series, John and Daniel discuss why Australians should be optimistic about the future.
On the first episode John and Daniel get into the detail on net zero, why 2025 will be the year the Coalition ditches its commitment to this failed policy.
Also, they will discuss Australians’ overwhelming support for our national flag and the values that unite us, as well as why changing attitudes have seen the ABC cancel its woke and divisive Q+A program.
Plus, Daniel shares his insights in having been the Liberal Party candidate for the electorate of Spence at the 2025 federal election, and John shares his thoughts on an important book he has just read on the psychology of totalitarianism by Professor Matthias Desmet.
