This podcast series will feature prominent political leaders, thought leaders, and experts who understand why the Australian people have lost their power and influence in Parliament, many who are driven to resisting further decline in Australia's democratic system and those fighting for reform and a better, fairer way to make decisions that shape our collective future. Independents CAN is on a mission to get more independent Australian voices elected to represent the people of Australia, and are working towards the goal of forcing the major parties to form government with community leaders bound to represent the interests of Australians above all else. Independents can wish to ensure the Australian people have a more direct and active role in shaping the future direction of their country.

Episode 13: Scott Ludlam
Sunday, 9 May, 2021
Former Greens Senator Scott Ludlam joins Oliver and Charlie to discuss the themes in his latest book, Full Circle: a search for the world that comes next, where he draws on his experience as a senator and activist to capture our world on a precipice and explore what comes next. During his time as a federal senator for the Australian Greens (2008 to 2017) and in his capacity as deputy leader, Scott campaigned on many issues such as internet censorship, for strengthened protections for public ownership of the National Broadband Network, and for the fair treatment of Julian Assange and the WikiLeaks publishing organisation. In 2011 he successfully advocated to restore $264 million to the National Rental Affordability Scheme which funded the construction of thousands of affordable rental homes.
