In this episode of Out of Interest, we dive into the topic of the upcoming US election and the wide-reaching effects it will have on us here in Australia. Our guests, Ali, Muzza, and Hakan, unpack the various ways the results of this election could shape our economy, influence international relationships, and alter global dynamics that directly affect Australia.
We begin by exploring how the US, as a global economic leader, has a significant impact on markets worldwide. The outcome of this election could either stabilize or disrupt financial systems, affecting everything from interest rates to international trade agreements. Our hosts provide insights into how Australian businesses should prepare for these changes and what industries might be hit the hardest.

From a geopolitical standpoint, the discussion shifts to foreign policy. Ali, Muzza, and Hakan explain how US foreign relations, particularly with major powers like China and Russia, can have ripple effects across the globe, impacting Australia’s own diplomatic strategies and security concerns. The panel also addresses how conflicts in the Middle East and other global hotspots could intensify or cool down depending on who takes the White House.
In a more localized context, we explore what the US election might mean for Australia's social and political landscape. With the US often setting trends in global governance and social policies, how might shifts in leadership influence Australian politics? Our guests consider whether Australia’s ties with the US will strengthen or weaken under new leadership, and how that could affect everything from military alliances to cultural exchanges.
Finally, we dive into the broader societal implications. The discussion touches on immigration policies, environmental commitments, and how a change in US leadership could either escalate or ease global tensions, which ultimately affects Australia’s way of life.
This episode is packed with thought-provoking discussions on how interconnected our world is, and why Australians should care about what happens in the US election. Whether you’re invested in global politics, business, or just curious about what lies ahead, this conversation will leave you with a deeper understanding of how closely our fates are tied to global superpowers like the US.
