Radio Reversal is a show that subjects aspects of everyday life to historico-political, theoretical, cheeky, irreverent, high brow, low brow, eye brow, warm-hearted analysis. Our aim is to see the world more clearly, think about what we'd like it to become, and how we can make that happen. We think that discussing these sorts of ideas is one way to lessen the alienation that affects many of us trying to make sense of a world that so often makes no sense of us. We also play loads of awesome music (sometimes thematic!) with great enthusiasm for requests and an emphasis on supporting local artists. It's fun!

The Ongoing Crisis: Election Special w Jonathan Sriranganathan
G'day zedriends! In this week's episode, join Anna & Jonno as they share some initial reflections after the federal election result. Last Saturday, 1 in 3 people voted Labor, 1 in 3 voted Liberal/National, and 1 in 3 voted for someone else. Has anything changed? With the centre-right-wing Labor party now dominant nationally, what lessons should we take from this election? Is running for elections still worth the time? Where should we all be putting our energy?
In line with our current interest in the politics of crisis and disaster, we're turning our attention to the present moment here in the colony - what the heck is going on? How can we make sense of the election result? And more importantly, what does this tell us about the political work that is ahead of us?
Tune in and let us know if you have questions, queries or comments!
