See below for show notes:

In this special two-part discussion, Dan and John discuss the significant changes which have taken place to Australia over the past generation, and what Australia might look like over the next twenty years.

Throughout the discussion, Dan and John analyse the changing nature of debate about culture and the Australian way of life; the fragmentation of Australian society and our political system; the growing detachment of the elites from the mainstream; and why there is hope for the next generation.
