In this episode, Iain and Josephine explore the dynamic political landscapes of the United States and Australia, highlighting the stark contrasts and shared challenges they face. As the US navigates a complex political climate, Australia offers a model of stability with its strong democratic institutions. Yet, in an era where expressing our points of view is crucial, we question whether platforms like LinkedIn can truly support open dialogue.

Join us as we discuss the importance of having a voice in today's world and the role of professional networks in fostering meaningful conversations.
