In this solo episode, Mel dives deep into the complexities of the 2024 presidential race from the perspective of an Australian millennial. As Donald Trump aims for a second term, we reflect on the hopes and ideals that defined the Obama years—when optimism ran high and change seemed possible. What happened to that vision, and how have things shifted in the years since?
We explore the "bratification" of Kamala Harris, examining how the vice president's public persona has evolved and the power social media plays in political campaigns.
Finally, we take a closer look at how Trump’s presidency are shaping key issues that matter most to millennials: from climate change and healthcare to social justice and economic inequality.
Join Mel for a candid conversation about the crossroads facing America in 2024, and what millennials are hoping (or dreading) for in the years to come.
