**Listener warning: This episode contains mild swearing and a brief reference to adult themes.** In this episode of Around the School Table (www.xuno.com.au/podcasts), host Steve Davis is joined by comedian and action learning coach Daniel Delby to unpack how humour can transform classroom management and teacher wellbeing. Drawing on his journey from drama and phys-ed teaching into science and special needs support, Daniel shows how laughter can keep both students and teachers engaged for the long haul. As the creator of Teacher Comedy Night (teachercomedynight.com), Daniel has turned everyday school stories into a space where educators can connect, unwind and realise they are not alone. Teachers come for the laughs; however, they also leave with fresh perspective on behaviour, relationships and classroom management strategies. Along the way, Daniel shares how a professional learning course in Classroom Management Strategies (CMS) shifted his mindset from “these kids are the problem” to “what can I do differently?” Throughout the conversation, Daniel explains why humour works so powerfully in the classroom. Teachers are constantly performing in front of up to 34 students. Therefore, they must learn to hold attention, break the ice and win the class over. Yet he is clear that not every teacher needs to be a stand-up comic. Instead, he argues that authenticity, clear boundaries and genuine interest in students matter just as much as punchlines. The episode also explores how Daniel uses freestyle rap and improvisation to hook students into learning. From rapping about classes at assemblies to encouraging students to expand their vocabularies so they can rhyme, he demonstrates how creativity can sit alongside curriculum goals. As a result, humour becomes more than a gimmick; it becomes a tool for connection, confidence and student voice. Listeners will also hear about Daniel’s touring Teacher Comedy Night shows, his links to major comedy festivals and the growing community of teachers who are discovering comedy as a way to stay in the profession. Ultimately, this episode is for any educator who loves their students, feels the strain of the job and wants practical, light-hearted ideas to bring joy back into teaching.

After nearly 17 years of marriage, David and Lisa Campbell decided it was time to embark on a passion project that would fulfil each of them in a very specific way. So they launched a podcast, one devoted to the legacy of Jane Austen. Lisa, a theatre producer and casting director, has been an Austen devotee for her entire adult life. Today Extra co-host and entertainer David, meanwhile, only recently picked up Pride And Prejudice for the first time. Into The Austenverse blends pop culture, literature and the unique rhythms of their enduring marriage, with plenty of wit along the way. In this conversation, they talk about where the idea started, what revisiting Austen’s world has revealed to them, and how the themes of love, class and character still resonate today. They open up about family life, their friendship with Magda Szubanski, and why – 13 years on – David still loves working in morning TV. Watch the full episode with David and Lisa here.

This week we’re unpacking the wild rise of Elle Ray because she’s literally EVERYWHERE right now: red carpets, TikTok, award shows, hosting, concerts, flights every second day ✈️
There’s a part of growth no one talks about — the fire before the glow up.That uncomfortable season where everything feels messy, heavy, and unclear.The part where you’re questioning who you are, what you want, and what’s next. But what if nothing is going wrong?What if you’re being refined for the version of you that 2026 requires? In this powerful episode, Julie explores why the defining seasons of leadership often feel like grief, frustration, and transition. She unpacks why alignment rarely feels calm at the beginning, how to navigate the loneliness of growth, and what it truly means to lead yourself first. This isn’t about hustling harder.It’s about anchoring deeper. You’ll walk away with practical reflection prompts and self-leadership cues you can use right now to turn this fire into fuel for your next chapter. Key Themes Growth doesn’t always feel good — sometimes it feels like loss. Feeling “messy” often means you’re becoming more aligned, not less. Balance is outdated — anchored leadership is the new standard. Your next level requires self-trust, capacity, and boundaries. Reflection is the gateway to who you're becoming.

In this episode of Around the School Table (www.xuno.com.au/podcasts), host Steve Davis is joined by Dylan Sulzer, founder of Not Just Teacher Education (www.notjustateachereducation.com), to explore how Dylan’s unique journey—from Port Lincoln to the Northern Territory and even mustering cattle—has shaped his deep understanding of emotional intelligence in education. Dylan brings practical tools and insights to help teachers and students navigate tricky behaviour, build emotional regulation, and foster a positive classroom culture. He reframes defiance as a bid for independence and examines the balance between happiness and purpose, offering educators a fresh way to connect, support and empower young people both inside and outside the classroom. Throughout the episode, Dylan explains the five domains of emotional intelligence — self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy and relational communication — and shows how educators can apply them in the real world. He shares simple, applicable strategies such as breathing techniques and naming tasks to re-engage teachers’ thinking brains in stressful moments.Furthermore, Dylan’s student-brand program demonstrates how young people can identify their character strengths, develop a sense of identity and shift from external rewards to intrinsic motivation. The conversation also touches on the role of choice in managing student independence, why banning social media might be a band-aid solution, and the importance of being more impressive in person than online. This episode is ideal for teachers, school leaders and anyone interested in shaping classroom culture with emotional intelligence at the heart.

The Oscars of Porn: where dreams are made and egos are shattered. After a week of vanishing acts, Bonnie Blue resurfaces in a $40,000 Louis Vuitton gown, convinced she's about to claim her crown as the industry's reigning queen. But reality has other plans. As journalist James Weir captures the industry's biggest night, he witnesses what happens after the climax — obsessed fans bankrupting themselves for glimpses of online sex tapes while veteran Charlie Ford delivers brutal truths during a frantic desert drive to the ceremony. Rival Lily Phillips prepares for war in her hotel suite, and porn legends gather to celebrate an industry Bonnie claims to have conquered. When the self-proclaimed queen arrives fashionably late (just as the red carpet is being packed away), her grand entrance becomes a desperate scramble. And in the Nevada desert, blue fades to black.

In this episode, I sit down with proud Meuram woman Lala Gutchen from Erub island in the Torres Strait — a language teacher, diver, and climate advocate whose life’s work is rooted in protecting Country. We met at the First Nations Clean Energy Summit on Kabi Kabi Country, where Lala shared her story about preserving language, culture, and Sea Country in the face of rising tides and corporate development. From teaching her people’s first language, Erub Mer, to giving evidence in court alongside her parents to defend her homeland, Lala reminds us that caring for Country isn’t just environmental work — it’s cultural survival. Together, we yarn about the Torres Strait 8, youth leadership, the importance of elders’ guidance, and how connection to Country keeps language alive. Lala’s words are powerful and grounding — a reminder that protecting the planet begins with listening to those who live closest to it.

When Sarah Davidson last joined Something To Talk About in 2023, she was in the midst of one of life’s hardest chapters – navigating pregnancy loss, uncertainty and hope. It was a raw and deeply human conversation that resonated with so many of our listeners. A year later, Sarah’s story took a beautiful turn. In 2024, she and her husband Nic welcomed their son, Teddy – and just a few months later, she appeared on Stellar’s Mother’s Day cover, cradling him in her arms. Two years on, Sarah’s life looks completely different. She’s a business owner, content creator and mum, redefining what ambition and balance really look like in this season of life. From rebuilding identity after loss to rediscovering purpose through motherhood, Sarah shares how she’s learnt to bounce forward – in her career, her creativity and her sense of self. We also talk about her viral public speaking hacks, how she’s managed to build a troll-free online community of over 100,000 followers, and why she’s never been more driven – or more grounded – than she is today.

We’ve been sharing this podcast with you all for almost six years now. It all began as Separate Bathrooms, and as it grew, we grew. And it transformed intoThe Heart Of It. The new name felt right, it captured the tone, depth, and connection we share with our incredible guests each week. It has been an amazing ride, full of laughter, learning, and heartfelt conversations. And now, it feels like the right moment to pause, recharge, and reflect on just how far we’ve come. So, we’re taking a short hiatus into 2026. This isn’t goodbye. It’s just a little pit stop while life catches up and we take a moment to smell the roses. Thank you for being part of this journey with us, for tuning in every week, and for embracing the stories, guests, and heart that make this podcast what it is.
