Episode 148: The referendum is October 14, misogyny tars football and infects young men, inflation slows and good news about wind

Van Badham and Ben Davison discuss the official announcement of
the Voice referendum date, October 14th, while taking a look at
the campaigns, the messages and why Albo's message of hope has
gained the support of such a broad cross section of Australia.


The union movement is campaigning for YES and you can get
involved with your union at australianunions.org.au/wow and the
campaign at yes23.com.au 


A listener wrote in with a question about Andrew Tate's influence
over young men so Van and Ben discuss how the toxic individualism
of Tate is evident in the behaviour of the Spanish Football
President and how the benefits of collectivism, community and
team work are present in everyday life and in the response from
the broader football world.


Inflation is at its lowest point in 17 months.  Ben and Van
discuss the impact this might have on the referendum, what it
tells us about economics and why the mystics who demand working
people pay to keep inflation low have been proven wrong.


There is also good news about wind powered shipping!
