We've all been warned that the Internet is permanent. So what happens when young people – who've been posting online their entire lives – begin to enter politics? With so many political careers already being ended because of old posts on social media, will Millennial and Gen Z political careers be killed off too quickly?

Rachael Conaghan, News & Politics Writer for Junkee, joins Debatable to discuss whether we need to re-evaluate the importance of old tweets, for our own sakes.

Zee Feed’s Instagram followers made a surprising confession: they do NOT like Beyoncé. Their reasoning? She’s too superior, too unnapproachable, too private. Does this mean the era of aspirational, superstar celebrity is over?

Sarah Fitzmaurice, a journalist who has reported on celebrities for some of the world’s biggest media companies including Daily Mail, joins Debatable to discuss what the evolution of celebrity culture says about all of us.

Remember all those “We are the virus” memes being shared on social media during the initial COVID-19 outbreaks in March? If you shared them, you should be aware of the dangerous belief system they were connected to: Ecofacism, a topic where race, class, privilege and the climate crisis all collide.

Tim Lo Surdo, Director of Democracy in Colour, joins Debatable to unpack the intersectionality of social justice causes, and how to be a responsible ally and advocate for change.

Josh Janssen, co-host of The Daily Talk Show, joins Debatable to discuss the gender bias in content consumption… and whether Crystal’s aim of creating a balanced audience is achievable.

From the Australian bushfires, to COVID-19, to the global surge of support for the Black Lives Matter movement, 2020 has seen consumers waking up to the fact that their money has power. What’s more important, the product being bought or the person making money from it?
