As the political year draws to a close in Canberra, an election is looming for the not-too-distant-future. Geraldine and Eliza discuss an article published in the Australian Financial Review this week headlined “This election is about who you trust not the change your lives”. It's written by the head of a Labor-aligned think tank, the John Curtin Research Centre. The article concludes that “these are nation-building times, but people desire change with continuity”. So what does that mean for the contest at the next election? Also this week, Eliza's pick for TV interview of the year. Geraldine watches a new documentary on Billy Graham. And the pros and cons of fake fruit. Thanks for listening!

Dunn Street founder Stephen Donnelly was joined by National President of Australian Young Labor, Ali Amin.Ali responds to John Curtin Research Centre executive director, Nick Dyrenfurth's assertion that Young Labor is “too like the Greens,” with a narrow inner-city, tertiary educated, middle-class membership lacking diversity. Ali shares his story from refugee to student activist fighting Chris Pine's education cuts, to becoming the President of Australian Young Labor. He also gives his thoughts on how Young Labor can energise its base in the lead up to the Federal Election next (this?) year. The presenting sponsor of the Socially Democratic podcast is Dunn Street.
