In October 2024, thousands of households and businesses in far west NSW were hit by a catastrophic power outage that lasted for weeks, and the fallout continues.
Five months after the discovery of asbestos closed Auckland Museum, its finally reopened the doors to the majority its main attractions - including the cherished volcano house. Remediation work to get rid of the asbestos could exceed $10 million, while a 10 percent decline in visitor numbers left the museum with no choice but to disestablish 31 roles. But as Louise Ternouth reports, it's hoped today's re-opening will help bring the museum back to life.

Today's guest is Professor David Kinley, someone who has deeply influenced and inspired my personal approach to a corporate's responsibility to respect human rights. David holds the chair of human rights law at the university of Sydney, is an academic expert of doughty street chamber in London, a founding member of Australian lawyers for human rights and a board member of Cisarua, an Afghan refugee-led education centre based in Indonesia. I first came across David's work through his book Necessary Evil; How to fix finance by saving human rights which was seminal in advancing my appreciation and the practical application of human rights in a corporate context. David's work - beyond his scholarly and teaching duties, means he's written over ten books on topics as broad as international human rights, law, politics, philosophy, economics and the relationship between freedom and responsibility.I first came across David's work in late 2021 and was immediately captured by both the practicality of his wisdom and the robustness of his expertise. His work was so influential it landed me in a lot of hot water, which to me indicates he is clearly onto the awkward and uncomfortable reality human rights responsibilities ask of corporates. Since then though David has published two really terrific books, The Liberty Paradox and in recent weeks has released In a Rain of Dust; Death, Deceit and the lawyer who busted big asbestos. I was captured by both and for different reasons, but like Necessary Evil, David's prose and style blends technical complexity with relatable everyday circumstance.This chat covers a lot of ground across those three books, but comes to identify and reflect the challenge organisations and individuals face in needing to account for affected and harmed people through the power of their decisions making. In a rain of dust is a story about malpractice and negligence that caused the deaths of thousands of vulnerable and impoverished people across continents, but it reflects the bankruptcy of corporate leadership fixated on profiteering, on the legacy of injustice, but also how crime never pays - in this case how powerful corporate elites and their business were shamed and now portrayed as merchants of death and destruction because of their dismissal of other humans ‘over there.'Events are live and more are coming - follow on Humanitix.Follow on LinkedIn, Substack and Instagram.Today's show is delivered with Reposit Power.

The world of home improvement is about to get a whole lot more interesting, folks! Today, we're diving into a rather grim prediction about an emerging epidemic that's lurking in our homes, ready to take the lead in the 'most wanted hazards' list. Forget asbestos and lead paint—move over, old-timers, there's a new kid on the block, and it's all about mold. Yes, you heard that right! Our buddy Eric G. is here to spill the tea on how mold remediation could become a nightmare scenario for homeowners everywhere. Imagine that, a silent invader that could wreak havoc on your health and your wallet. I mean, who wouldn't want to deal with that? We're talking about a potential wave of lawsuits and insurance claims that could make your head spin! Eric's not just throwing around wild speculation; he's got the numbers to back it up. From rising mold-related lawsuits to the disturbing stats on ineffective mold remediation, this episode is a wake-up call for all of us. If you think your home is safe, think again! Oh, and just to keep it real, Eric shares some personal war stories about his own battles with pesky smoke detectors at 3 AM and the all-too-familiar ‘where's that beep coming from' dance. Spoiler alert: it's not as fun as it sounds. But hey, if you can survive a nighttime smoke detector hunt, you can definitely tackle a mold problem, right? This episode is packed with serious insights and a few chuckles along the way, because let's face it, if we don't laugh, we might just cry about the state of our homes. So grab your toolkit and join us for a conversation that's as informative as it is entertaining!Takeaways: We're potentially looking at a mold epidemic that could rival the infamous asbestos and lead paint issues, which is just fantastic news for homeowners, right? Mold remediation failures are skyrocketing, with 60% of jobs being ineffective, so be prepared to sleep with one eye open! The CDC suggests that mold exposure could cause serious respiratory issues and other chronic conditions, which is just what we need in our already chaotic lives. Insurance claims related to mold are expected to skyrocket, potentially exceeding $5 billion annually by 2027. Can anyone say 'cha-ching' for the insurance companies? Expect a wave of class action lawsuits against remediation contractors—it's about to get litigious out there, folks! And remember, if your smoke detector starts beeping randomly at night, don't be like me—get up and fix that thing before it ruins your sleep for the next three hours!

Check this one out! This episode is long overdue! All will be fine(s). Don't get all Dewey-eyed (and other book-borrowing puns)! This week the guys delve into the history (and some stubborn myths regarding it) of the Library of Alexandria. Most people have heard of its “burning”, but do the generally accepted versions of it hold water? Once you get past the cover it seems like things are a bit more complicated: it didn't all burn down at once; it probably wasn't the devastating, permanent loss of knowledge as it's sometimes portrayed, and the whole pagan vs. Christian finger pointing doesn't help. Join Jeff "Jamie Franklin Hyneman" Winkle and Dave "Adam Savage" Noe as they look at the ancient sources and the archaeology (or lack thereof), and attempt to get down to the nittus-grittus.
In dieser Episode wird's wieder richtig cineastisch: Wir lesen eine brandneue Fan Fiction vor – und diesmal sogar mit Sequel!

Today it's all about windows and doors...we welcome Chris Perez of American Vision Windows to talk about how to improve the window and door situation in your home, a critical component of your home and the value of making sure both are as energy efficient as possible. Dean tackles listener questions about asbestos in the attic of an old house and how that might affect the sale of the house, and whether or not you can place another layer of insulation over it, where to find motorized sliders to put over a kitchen sink with a box window, how to fix a damaged 'weep strip' on a common stucco wall, and how to find the source of a water leak that seems to have originated in a bathroom, but has no obvious sign of source.

Clement Manyathela speaks Gauteng Department of Education spokesperson, Mr. Steve Mabona as angry parents and education activists voice frusrations about the dire situation at Alrapark Primary School in Nigel, where classes have been suspended for three weeks. Parents took drastic action after years of neglect – citing broken windows that injured staff, lingering asbestos, and faulty mobile classrooms that trip power. With education disrupted, pressure is now on Gauteng Education MEC Matome Chiloane, who has promised to rebuild the school in 18 months. But for many, the question remains: why did it take a shutdown to get attention? 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Asbestos has been the hot topic of debate for decades, but let's be real, most of us still have a foggy understanding of what it is and why it matters. Eric G gets down to the nitty-gritty with Justinian Lane, Esquire, a guy who knows more about asbestos than I know about my own family history (and trust me, I know a lot). They dive into the absurd myths surrounding asbestos—like how many people think it was banned in the 70s. Spoiler alert: it wasn't! In fact, asbestos was still lurking around in homes and buildings well into the 80s and beyond. You'll be shocked to learn that it was used in everything from insulation to floor tiles. Justinian lays out the timeline of asbestos use and how it went from being a miracle mineral to a public health nightmare. If you're a homeowner or planning to renovate, this episode is basically your survival guide to navigating the treacherous waters of asbestos awareness. The conversation takes a darker turn as Justinian shares his personal connection to this insidious substance. He lost family members to cancer that was linked to asbestos exposure, and that's when it became more than just a job for him. With a mix of dry humor and sharp insight, he explains the dangers of asbestos and the misconceptions that keep floating around, like the idea that a quick cleanup job is all it takes to make a place safe. If you thought vacuuming was enough, think again! Spoiler alert: it's not. They discuss the sticky nature of asbestos fibers and how easily they can remain airborne, putting unsuspecting homeowners at risk long after the renovations are done. By the time the episode wraps up, you'll have a well-rounded understanding of why asbestos is a big deal, what to look out for in your own home, and how to stay safe. They even touch on the legal side of things—like what happens if your contractor does a shoddy job and exposes you to asbestos. Trust me, you don't want to miss this episode if you want to keep your home—and your lungs—safe from this hidden menace.Takeaways: Asbestos was still widely used in construction well into the 1980s, contrary to popular belief. Your home could be a hidden time bomb for asbestos exposure, especially if built before the 90s. Testing for asbestos is essential before any renovation; don't be the DIY hero who causes a disaster. Asbestos fibers are so small they can linger in the air for years, undetected by the naked eye. Contractors cutting corners on asbestos removal can put whole communities at risk, so choose wisely. The legal landscape surrounding asbestos claims is shifting, with more cases involving the families of workers exposed decades ago.

Highlights from Talkback. William Crawley and guests discuss the news headlines.
Auckland War Memorial Museum is is losing thousands of dollars a day after being forced to close its doors because an asbestos scare. It's been closed since the tenth of May after the asbestos dust was found in Te Marae Atea Maori Court and the Pacific Galleries. Following swab tests it was discovered in the Grand Foyer - which makes things more complicated because that is a major evacuation route. Chief Executive of Auckland Museum, David Reeves spoke to Lisa Owen.

A Libby clinic that screens locals for asbestos-related diseases was shuttered this week. A district court authorized the seizure of the clinic's property to pay a court settlement.
For decades, Libby residents have lived with the deadly aftermath of asbestos contamination from a now defunct vermiculite mine. People who were exposed to that asbestos are still getting sick. But getting a diagnosis could become more difficult as potential Trump Administration spending cuts threaten the specialized asbestos clinic that screens locals.

Dave said he'd never flip a house. He doesn't have the handyman skills; he doesn't like managing contractors, and he can't design a floor plan. So why now, coming into 2025, has he decided to flip his first house? It's simple—an opportunity was presented to him that he couldn't pass up. Partnering with expert investor James Dainard, Dave is flipping this house with James acting as the operator and Dave as the investor. If you've ever wanted to get into house flipping but felt like Dave, this episode will show you how to start. If Dave isn't managing contractors or handling permits, what role does he play? Today, Dave and James are walking through their unique house-flipping partnership, explaining why James made an offer on the property within hours of hearing about it, their rehab budget, renovation plan, potential profit, and some hiccups they could run into (asbestos!). James is even sharing his expert tips on how to know a property is worth buying for a flip and questions you must ask a flipper or lender BEFORE you start working with them. We'll keep you updated on this flip's progress so you can see exactly what goes right, what goes wrong, and how much money this property will make! In This Episode We Cover: How to invest in house flipping even if you have ZERO renovation/remodeling experience Finding the deal and why you need to have relationships with wholesalers How to spot a great potential house flip—and one HUGE red flag to avoid at all costs Two ways to raise money for your house flips (debt vs. equity) and the pros and cons of both Picking a real estate investing partner and questions you must ask before you work together And So Much More!
