Episode description

Dunn Street founder and Community Organiser Stephen Donnelly was joined by fellow podcasters, Labor activist, Ben Davison and Guardian columnist, Van Badham, for a special crossover episode: Socially Democratic meets The Week On Wednesday. 

Ben, Van, and Stephen join forces to unpack the midpoint of the 2022 Federal Election campaign, sharing their thoughts on the campaign so far, the performance of both party leaders, the impact of media coverage on voters, and the shift in campaign strategies as early voting begins on Monday 9 May. 

They also discuss what to expect in the second half of the campaign, highlighting the very real issues Australians are facing economically thanks to interest rate hikes, stagnant wages, rising costs of living, and how Labor can win those undecided and persuadable voters leading up to election day.
