Episode 3: Lech Blaine

<p>Lech Blaine's essay '<a href="https://www.quarterlyessay.com.au/essay/2021/09/top-blokes" target="_blank">Top Blokes: the Larrikin Myth, Class and Power</a>' (Quarterly Essay) is a gutsy exploration of how Australian politicians concoct a "larrikin" persona (by faking a "true blue" masculinity of footy and beer drinking) in a bid to relate to working class voters. Rachel talks to Lech about his&nbsp;childhood in regional Queensland, about the dichotomy between Bob Hawke and Paul Keating, and about the invention of Scott Morrison's daggy dad "ScoMo'' persona. They finish by discussing what it is that Lech captures about Queensland class and politics that eludes so many politicians and commentators.</p> <p>This podcast is an edited recording of a webinar hosted by the McKell Institute on 21 September 2021.</p> <p>Find out more about:</p> <ul> <li>Lech Blaine:&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/lechblaine" target="_blank">@lechblaine</a></li> <li>Rachel Nolan: <a href="https://twitter.com/RachelGNolan" target="_blank">@RachelGNolan</a></li> <li>The McKell Institute: <a href="https://mckellinstitute.org.au/" target="_blank">https://mckellinstitute.org.au/</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/McKellInstitute" target="_blank">@McKellInstitute</a></li> </ul> <p>Deep North is a politics podcast&nbsp;by the McKell Institute, Queensland.
