Playgrounds to Politics is a podcast by The Connection Table with your host Samantha Dendle, a teenager from a rural town in Central Qld. In each episode, Sami talks with current and former politicians with rural roots in all three tiers of Australian government. Delving into each guest's journey to politics, Sami hopes her conversations will encourage other young people from rural areas to engage with the political landscape.
