Take control away from big tech; Claudia Karvan and the power of storytelling

54 Minuten
In this week’s episode, Sarah says it’s time to take control away from the big tech giants and put people back in charge of their feeds by giving them the ability to opt-in to algorithms on social media. The government has a real chance to protect all social media users, but particularly young people, by working with the Greens to make these toxic, predatory algorithms a thing of the past.

Sarah’s special guest this week is Claudia Karvan - Australian actress and producer who you might recognise from shows like Bump, The Secret Life of Us, Puberty Blues and most recently her Logie-winning performance in Homebodies. Not only is she incredibly talented on screen, but Claudia is also known for using her platform to speak out on issues she cares about such as Palestine, the environment, and human rights. Together, Sarah and Claudia speak about the power of storytelling and how Claudia uses her on-screen talent to explore these serious and important topics with the audience, backlash public figures can face when they speak up and why the most important thing you can do for the environment is to talk about it. 

One Nation punches down on LGBTIQA+ Aussies AGAIN; Chanel Contos on fixing our feeds

1 Stunde 2 Minuten
In this week’s episode, Sarah says that while One Nation's Malcom Roberts says he’s in two minds about whether LGBTIQA+ Australians are equal - she wonders if he even has one mind. These kinds of comments are not mistakes, this is the worldview of One Nation. All too often, the media dismisses these comments as just another kooky MP from the fringes of Pauline Hanson’s political party - but it’s time we acknowledge it for what it is. One Nation is a party built on hatred and othering and they need to be called out for it. 

Sarah’s special guest this week is Chanel Contos, sexual consent activist, founder of Teach Us Consent, and author of Consent Laid Bare. It’s a name you’re hearing a lot right now but how did Chanel get here and why is she so passionate about combatting men’s violence? Sarah and Chanel speak about the shocking sexual assaults that are dominating headlines from private school boys to AFL players, what is driving this behaviour in boys and young men in particular, and the work that needs to be done to change it.  With dangerous algorithms and toxic social media feeds fuelling misogynistic and sexist behaviour, much of the culture change that’s desperately needed must come from regulating big tech and disrupting their profit models. Chanel has been driving the #FixOurFeeds campaign, where social media users would be able to switch their algorithm on or off. Sarah currently has a bill before the parliament to do just that.

Why men should call out the boys' club; the power of empathy with Lem Zakharia

46 Minuten
In this week’s episode, Sarah says men have an entitlement problem and it’s time other men call it out. After a horror week of allegations of sexual assault against Sydney Swans AFL players and private school boys, Sarah asks where are the newspaper columns, podcasts and social media posts by men calling out this behaviour and driving the cultural change so desperately needed to end men’s violence against women. Sarah calls for real men to step up, call it out, if this men’s entitlement problem is going to stop.

Sarah’s special guest this week is Lem Zakharia, founder of talent and marketing firm Bedou and former producer of Abbie Chatfield’s ‘It’s A Lot’ podcast. In this episode, Sarah and Lem talk about her life as a twice displaced queer Palestinian living in Jordan, her experience seeking asylum and citizenship in Australia, the manosphere, and the power of empathy in a world of grievance. 

I’m sick of the melons; Andrew Denton and the right to die with dignity

51 Minuten
In this week’s episode, Sarah says she’s sick to death of hearing about the melons. In the midst of a crisis of men’s violence against women, lack of funding of domestic violence services, and every other crisis Australians are facing right now - all the Coalition and the media could focus on last week was the Prime Minister’s melon debacle. 

Sarah’s special guest this week is Andrew Denton, broadcaster, producer, comedian - now Logies Hall of Famer - and Australia’s most well-known advocate for Voluntary Assisted Dying. As founding director of ‘Go Gentle Australia', Andrew has been instrumental in helping Australians access compassionate end-of-life healthcare through new laws for voluntary assisted dying (VAD). With VAD now accessible in all states and the ACT, the campaign has now extended its focus to fixing the barriers that exist for rural and regional Australians in accessing VAD care via Telehealth. Last week, I introduced a bill to the parliament that would fix this barrier and deliver more equal access to terminally ill adults wanting help from a doctor to end their suffering. In this episode, we delve into this issue, and so much more including Pauline Hanson on Enough Rope, coercion by the Catholic Church, and the importance of storytelling. 

$1.5 million for peanuts?; Nahji Chu is the ultimate disruptor

49 Minuten
In this week’s episode, Sarah reveals how the Australian Government isn’t even providing peanuts to East Timor’s children, leaving them malnourished and their growth stunted. Sarah explains that on a recent trip to the very close but very poor neighbouring country, she saw firsthand the kids’ extreme hunger and how much of a vital lifeline literal peanuts are to their health and future. Once you hear this SHY Report, you will be moved to action. Email and phone Australia’s Foreign Minister: foreign.minister@dfat.gov.au (02) 6277 7500  and your local MP: https://www.aph.gov.au/Senators_and_Members/Contacting_Senators_and_Members 

Sarah’s special guest this week is Nahji Chu, owner of the infamous restaurant in Potts Point, Lady Chu. Nahji is a Vietnamese refugee who was born in Laos in the 1970’s. She has built her life and restaurant empire in Australia. In an era where the migration debate is dominating Australian politics and media, Nahji is an embodiment of resilience, resourcefulness, and risk taking - all qualities I think we all need to channel now more than ever while highlighting the extraordinary achievements and contributions refugees and migrants have made to Australia.

Über diesen Podcast

Welcome to The Sarah Hanson-Young Podcast. A place where we can have the important conversations about how we can make the world a better place and force politics to work for people - together. Some people want you to believe that politics can't be fixed. Well, I disagree. I think we need to make politics a force for good, and you do that by having good conversations, calling out the bullshit when you see it, and standing up and holding power to account. Every single week, this podcast is where we can sit down and do that together.
