The Hot Mess of the Better Together conference

Sunday, 2 November 2025 - 3:00pm to 4:00pm
The Hot Mess of the Better Together Conference

On this episode, we discussed

  • the horrific podcast episode produced and released by the Equality Project, organisers of the Better Together conference.
  • the less than satisfactory post-incident response from the Equality Project.
  • how the conference itself played out over the course of the two days, as described by our on-the-spot correspondent Oscar.
  • why it is perfectly reasonable to expect the Equality Project to step aside and forfeit their current socio-political position within the queer community.
  • how we deserve more informed leaders and must expect a real reckoning following an incident of this kind.
  • how queer elitism is consolidating itself here in Australia and how this incident acts as a warning sign.
