    The forces driving India's cockroach protests, and the evolution of the Labor Party. The forgotten mother of popular astrology, and the medieval book that fuelled witch hunts.

    06 The Making of One Nation | Seize the Moment?

    One Nation didn't emerge in a vacuum, then or now. The global surge in right-wing populism has propelled the party and thirty years on, it’s arguably stronger than ever. But is its popularity a protest or a fundamental realignment of Australian politics? And what happens to Pauline Hanson’s One Nation, post Pauline? In the sixth and final episode of The Making of One Nation, we speak to Jill Sheppard, a political scientist and senior lecturer in the School of Politics and International Relations at the Australian National University. This series was hosted by Ashlynne McGhee and produced and edited by Isabella Podwinski for The Conversation. Sound design by Michelle Macklem.

    05 The Making of One Nation | Master the Media

    The media made Pauline Hanson and One Nation, but now the party holds all the power. It’s a perfect storm for democracy: a shrinking and cowering traditional media, the toxic algorithms of the unmoderated social media cess pit and the warped reality of generative AI. But why is the party that once led the charge in the new internet age seemingly so restrained in weaponising AI? In the fifth instalment of The Making of One Nation, we speak to Kurt Sengul, a political scientist at Macquarie University who has researched the nexus between the media and the rise of far-right populism. This series was hosted by Ashlynne McGhee and produced and edited by Isabella Podwinski for The Conversation. Sound design by Michelle Macklem.

    04 The Making of One Nation | Move the Centre

    It’s never held government, or even opposition, yet One Nation’s managed to exert an outsized influence on the public policy agenda. From borders to migration, multiculturalism to Indigenous affairs, the far-right party has mastered mainstreaming and captured the masses fleeing the Coalition. In the fourth instalment of The Making of One Nation, we speak to Josh Sunman, Associate Lecturer in Public Policy at Flinders University and Tim Bale, a Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London. This series was hosted by Ashlynne McGhee and produced and edited by Isabella Podwinski for The Conversation. Sound design by Michelle Macklem.

The design evolution of the soccer ball. What is the protocol for alien first contact. And on The Year That Made Me, Jessica Mauboy.

    03 The Making of One Nation | Survive the Scandal

    We’d all like deeply considered policy and informed debate to be at the heart of politics, but unfortunately controversies and scandals tend to steal the show. For most parties, scandals are disastrous: they lose seats, ministers and elections — but not One Nation. It's weathered defections and punch-ups (including a memorable smearing of blood on a Senate door), jail and chaos, and thirty years on it's surging. This is a party that doesn’t just survive the chaos, but cultivates it and capitalises on it. This series was hosted by Ashlynne McGhee and produced and edited by Isabella Podwinski for The Conversation. Sound design by Michelle Macklem.
