In this episode of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong), Sean and Josh take you on a journey from the personal to the political, with plenty of digressions along the way.
Sean opens up about his upcoming trip to Brisbane, exploring family dynamics, queer nostalgia, and the strange comfort of returning to old haunts. From there, the pair dive headfirst into Britain’s political quagmire, analysing Keir Starmer’s recent statements, the creeping rise of Reform UK, and whether the Green Party has a real chance to shake things up. Is strategic voting broken? Can progressive politics survive the populist wave?
Josh and Sean also turn their attention to the bees and expose society’s double standards when it comes to environmental activism and animal compassion. They also discuss Alicia Silverstone’s surprising new TV project and the power of pop culture in animal rights.
It’s political, personal, a little bit pop, and packed with all the usual back-and-forth you love.
Enjoy the ride!
