Podcasts about election 2017

While we are by Faith making our calling and election sure, we have the promise of never falling.

Another episode, another week of yell-talking about the latest revelations of sexual harassment and assault. This week, Dahlia and Amy declare that Louis C.K. is cancelled after he’s finally admitted that the alleged rumors about him are true, albeit through a terrible nonapology. And they talk about the assault claims against Alabama candidate for Senate Roy Moore that will piss you off because a known child molester is actually considered a viable Republican candidate. But we end on a positive note! There were some historic, inspiring, and hopeful victories across the country so that 2017 isn’t just one big toilet bowl of a year after all.

In this episode of the Trans Specific Partnership, Joanna Cifredo and Rebecca Kling discuss the 2017 election, trans victories across the country, and taking our wins where we can get them.

The results of Tuesday's elections around the country include bad outcomes for operators in specific states and around the country. What do the results mean for the policies restaurants and retailers have been supporting and the ones they thought they could avoid with Republican majorities. The Align crew covers tax reform, health care, minimum policies and more. As always, you can get up to speed on the legislative scorecard by listening and there is news out of Google that will disrupt the way restaurants deal with wait times and how customers find out about them.

On October 22 Japan is heading to the polls for the third time in 5 years. The 2017 snap election has given candidates and parties little time to prepare and has made it difficult for observers to predict results as Japan’s party system seems once again in flux. The opposition camp is undergoing a major transformation as the Democratic Party, until September the biggest opposition party, has de-facto dissolved. Its members have joined two new parties: the Hope Party founded by Yuriko Koike, Tokyo’s governor, or the Constitutional Democratic Party, established by former DP secretary general Yukio Edano. Not least because of this division of the opposition the 2017 election could prove decisive, e.g. by clearing the way for constitutional revision. Prof Koichi Nakano is professor of comparative politics, Japanese politics and political theory at Sophia University in Tokyo. His research focuses on a variety of issues of contemporary Japanese politics from comparative, historical, and philosophical perspectives, including globalization and nationalism; the Yasukuni problem; language, media and politics; amakudari and administrative reform in Japan. He also has a keen interest in the politics of Britain, France, other western European countries, and the EU. Dr Chris Winkler, is lecturer in Japanese politics in the Modern Japanese Studies Program at Hokkaido University. Prior to joining Hokudai, Dr Winkler was senior research fellow and head of the social science section at DIJ. His main research interests are ideologies and how they shape policy formulation and politics in post-war Japan.

Captain Bill English was interviewed by the media this morning and he says he "did pretty well" at Election 2017. We're guessing his colleagues at The National Party might have a different view. Winston is pretty happy though.

The politicians who negotiated our new government were pursued by a press pack in parliament all through the process. Why did reporters spend draining days following their every move?

Has the Jacindaphoria evaporated? Who won the last debate? Are National's attack lines defensible? What happened to NZ First? Who will win the election? The Gone By Lunchtime team fearlessly answer these questions with definitive and irrefutable opinions.We're leaving together. But still it's farewell. And maybe we'll come back, To earth, who can tell? I guess there is no one to blame, We're leaving ground (leaving ground). Will things ever be the same again? It's the final countdown, and Ben Thomas, Annabelle Lee and Toby Manhire meet again, in the politics podcast that was around long before every fucker was doing a politics podcast, to chew the juicy fat of an extraordinary campaign. Listen as they debate the legitimacy of Steven Joyce's tactics. Gasp as they probe Bill English's eyelines. Weep as they quite literally carve open their hearts and let the truth spill out.

New Zealand's longest serving political leader suddenly signed off this week warning that superficial stuff seemed to be drowning out real political issues in the media. Week one of the election campaign showed he's got a point.

Eric Mugendi is the Managing Editor at PesaCheck.org. In this chat with Andile Masuku, taped on Monday, August 7th, 2017 - a day before Kenya's General Election - he factors in on how fake news has influenced public sentiment in the lead up to the highly-contested polls. We deliberately asked Eric to weigh in on the fake news situation before his insights were clouded by the election results. We've also been intentional about waiting for the official outcome to be declared before releasing this podcast, in respect for Kenya's democratic process.

In the lead up to the upcoming election in August 2017 ALC Radio visited Kirinyaga County to talk to young people on their views on the devolved governance structure in the county as well as how the past and incoming leadership has and will shape their future. In this programme, Desmond Davies talks to four young people - Evalyne Njeri, Irene Njoroge, Bernard Muthike and Anthony Mwangi from Kirinyaga County. Photo: Jacob Kamau - ALC

It's obvious that immigration has changed New Zealand in the past. But it's difficult to foresee how it will change us in the future. Where will the debate go and can we move past racism? What role will the media play? How will the questions we ask now shape immigration policy in the future? In the final episode of Slice of Heaven, Noelle McCarthy asks; where do we go from here?

ALC Radio visited Mombasa County to talk to leaders and residents in the lead up to the upcoming election in August 2017 on political and socio-economic issues affecting Mombasa residents and how they are shaping the political discourse in the county. In this programme Desmond Davies talks to Khalef Khalifa - Chairperson of Muslim for Human Rights and Furaha Charo a program officer at Haki Yetu a civil society organisation in Mombasa County. .

New Zealand is one of the great immigrant nations. Everyone here has a link to someone from somewhere else. But that doesn't mean everyone can agree on who should get to come here next. In the third episode of Slice of Heaven, Noelle McCarthy investigates immigration in New Zealand and asks; when we build a nation by inviting people in, do we know how it will turn out?

With record migration and a fast-growing population, Aotearoa/New Zealand is changing. How that will look depends upon the interplay between people here now and those who want to come. So who is coming and does it matter? What is the ideal number of people, what benefits will we see and where are the potential flash points? Can we rely on political leadership to steer us in the right direction? In this four-part podcast series for RNZ in association with Massey University, Noelle McCarthy investigates the state of immigration in New Zealand and asks - when it comes to our Slice of Heaven, is there enough to go around?

On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner, Sam and Ivan talk about... things other than Trump! Amazing! Topic include the Senate healthcare bill, Philandro Castile, Charleena Lyles, Grenfell Tower, useless press briefings, escalation in Syria, the special elections in Georgia and South Carolina, layoffs at pollster.com, Uber, Sam's thoughts on recording candidate forums... and even some movies Ivan watched recently! A lot packed in this week... but relatively Trump light! OK, we couldn't avoid him entirely. But closer than we have come for awhile!

News and analysis from Sky News Radio - #Election2017 #GE2017 #ArleneFoster #DUP #TheresaMay #EU #Brexit #Inflation #LondonBridge #CharlieGard #Parliament

Adam Rawcliffe is joined by Dolan Cummings, Alastair Donald and Claire Fox to discuss the fallout from the General Election. Can Theresa May survive without an overall majority? Is the strong reaction to a post-election deal with the DUP justified? Has class made a comeback at this election? And how should we view the apparent sharp rise in the youth vote?

As Theresa May's Brexit election backfires spectacularly Richard Porritt, Matt Kelly, Geri Scott and Steve Anglesey pick over the bones of a dramatic night. #Brexit #politics #Corbyn #May #Tory #Labour #Election

The UK election has produced a much closer result than expected, with the Conservative Party now seeking to form a minority government. On Newshour Extra this week, Owen Bennett Jones and his panel of experts from around the world take a step back and ask what issues voters really take into account when making their choice in democratic elections; what motivates that very personal choice; and whether old ideologies allegiances have been swept aside to be replaced by new and stronger ties fostered by a more individual brand of politics.

Rob Lyons is joined by Alastair Donald, Claire Fox and Geoff Kidder to discuss the surprise result in the General Election. Why did May’s gamble fail? What’s behind Labour’s relative success? What does the SNP’s decline mean for Scottish independence? What does it all mean for Brexit?

It was meant to be an election about Brexit but it turned into one about new young voters and what they wanted. They wanted change. What they got was a minority Government, a coalition between the Conservatives and Northern Ireland’s Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). But there are five more years until the next election and anyone 14, 15, 16, and 17 years old now will be able to vote in the next one. As well as some 13 year olds. They’re now part of the discussion like never before. Simon Lambert, Georgie Frost and Rachel Rickard Straus discuss how this is likely to affect our finances now and over the next five years. Can this Government even implement anything from their manifestos? How will they tackle impending debt and housing crises? What the hell will Brexit look like? Can they tackle the intergenerational inequality that the new voters clearly crave? Rachel explains the financial and economic plans in the DUP manifesto and how that’s likely to clash with Tory plans. You don’t get stuff like anywhere else. Enjoy.

Professor Andrew Walter, Interim Director of the Melbourne School of Government joined Amy in the studio to discuss the UK election campaign, the two major parties, the historical and current UK political landscape, and a looming election day (Thursday 8th June, 2017). Broadcast on June 6th, 2017.

We're now two months away from the 2017 General Election, so we thought we'd do a status check. As we've learnt from past Kenyan elections, and recent elections worldwide, election coverage is very important, and we’ve seen media coverage get used to results in wild directions. So today, we ask and answer a few questions. Why is this election important? Who are the key players? What is at stake? Press play!

This week, a breakdown of the BC election, the result of which is still up in the air, leaving Indigenous peoples with all sorts of questions.

Our roundtable welcomes two BC-based journalists, Angela Sterritt of CBC Vancouver and CBC Indigenous, and Wawmeesh Hamilton, who works for CBC and Discourse Media. // Our theme is 'nesting' by birocratic.

As a collective body Quakers in Britain are not party political. But that doesn't mean we're neutral. A general election is a good time to raise some key concerns with parliamentary candidates.

Marc and Dana welcome special guest Will for a political break from our usual media geekery to discuss the French presidential election, world politics, and parallels and personalities of history. Because when we said we nerd out about everything we love we really meant it.

The weekend saw one of the biggest swings in WA state political history as the Labor Party took control of the state. One of the biggest swings was seen in the seat of Bunbury, with Don Punch able to get the seat to turn from blue to red. He joined Dan Leach on Triple M Southwest about the success and why it happened. 

The “causes of faction are…sown in the nature of man,” said James Madison. But could the founders have foreseen the level of political polarization we’re seeing today? They certainly tried. That’s why we have separation of powers, checks and balances, and the Bill of Rights. In many ways, these institutions are under attack. Power has been concentrated, and minority rights have been threatened. What shall become of our constitutional system? In this episode, we navigate this treacherous onslaught with Dean Jack Knott. Dean Knott is the Dean of the Sol Price School of Public Policy at the University of Southern California, where he also holds the C. Erwin and Ione L. Piper Chair. He is a fellow of the National Academy of Public Administration and the former President of the Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs, and Administration.

2017 is an election year. Will it be a goldmine for our political journalists, or a big yawn? Did John Key's resignation late last year really stir things up? Will New Zealanders bother to vote or can the media shake off voter apathy? Our panellists Tracy Watkins (Political Editor of the Dominion Post), columnist Toby Manhire, RNZ Political Editor Jane Patterson, and Mediawatch's Colin Peacock, ponder these questions.
