Set This House In Order: A retrospective

Set This House In Order was the first podcast I ever created. It was an attempt to take some of the ideas I had about political reform (specifically at the Federal level) and bring them to a wider audience. However, illness, work and general life blah made it difficult to keep to the schedule I had set myself, and after playing with a revised format for a while, I eventually came to the conclusion that what I wanted was not to merely shout these ideas into the void, but to join a political party and try to work to put them into practice.

The podcast is no longer available as a subscription via RSS or assorted podcast players, but the individual episodes of it are archived on this site and downloadable from it, should you be interested in them.

Thank you to everyone who listened, who posted on here or on the Facebook group – who engaged with these ideas, and apologies to all of you that I never got around to interviewing for the show. I hope to interview some of you on other podcasts, some day.

Set This House In Order: Episode Zero

I’m so excited!

The preview episode for my first podcast just dropped.

This podcast:
Set This House In Order

Set This House In Order is a podcast in which I attempt to find ways to make our political system better. Minor tweaks or major reforms that make politics fairer, or smarter, or less corrupt. Most of them are little things – slight revisions or re-orientations that make things incrementally better rather than blowing up the whole thing and starting over. Because what we have is actually pretty good – but it can always be better.

You can find it here, and I’ll be adding it to all the usual places over the next few days. Let me know if there’s an app or service you particularly want to see it on – I have a list, but I’m sure I missed somewhere.
