Did you know that getting on for 4.5 million Australians live in strata? And who do you think comprises the single largest demographic group, from singles and couples through to one-parent families?Can you even take a wild guess at the total value of strata properties in Oz, or what percentage of strata schemes don't have strata managers?This week we take a deep dive into the latest Australasian (it includes NZ) Strata Insights report from UNSW and SCA.By the way, we got ourselves into a bit of a fankle over the Nepali language, which we mispronounced “nepawlee” rathere than “nepa-ly”, and which we partially correctly said was Nepalese – as in, the official language of Nepal.In fact, Nepali is spoken by more than up to 20 million people, mostly in Nepal and neighbouring parts of India. Smaller speech communities exist in Bhutan, Brunei, and Myanmar. And in Melbourne too, it seems.We also take a quick check on what the various political parties are offering by way of tackling the housing crisis and we talk briefly about why it's such a surprise to see one of our apartment developer giants exposed in the news.That's all in this week's Flat Chat Wrap.____________________________________________________Flat Chat is all about apartment living, especially in Australia.Find us on Facebook and Twitter and the Flat Chat website.Send comments and questions to mail@flatchat.com.au.Register to ask and answer questions about apartment living anonymously on the website.Recorded by Jimmy Thomson & Sue Williams; Transcribed by Otter.ai.Find out more about Sue Williams and Jimmy Thomson on their websites.

What makes auctions so tough for buyers? That's the question we dive into in this episode. Auctions are often praised for their transparency, but is that really enough to give buyers a fair shot? With seasoned professionals like Justin Nickerson running the show, how can an everyday buyer hope to compete? In this episode, we sit down and have a chat with Justin Nickerson, one of Australia's most awarded auctioneers, to uncover the secrets behind the auction process. Justin reveals to us why auctions can be so daunting for buyers and shares how his experience—honed over years of practice and thousands of auctions—helps sellers secure the best results. He pulls back the curtain on the techniques auctioneers use to foster competition and keep the momentum going, often leaving buyers struggling to keep up. This conversation doesn't just highlight the challenges; we also talk about practical advice to help buyers work through the auction landscape. From knowing when to start bidding to maintaining confidence and managing limits, these tips are certainly a game-changer. We also debunk some of the myths around bidding tactics, like waiting until the end to make a move, and explain why they usually don't work as planned. This episode is indeed full of eye-opening insights and strategies that will surely help buyers feel more confident and in control at auctions. If you've ever felt outmatched or uncertain during the bidding process, we provide a fresh perspective to help you approach your next auction with clarity and purpose. It's a must-listen for anyone looking to improve their auction game and turn the odds in their favour. Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Introduction 01:07 - Who is Justin Nickerson? 01:46 - Justin's perspective on why auctioning is the best way to transact in Brisbane 09:29 - Is it better for agents when auctions have no price guide? 11:18 - Does providing no price guide create transparency or confusion? 13:11 - How do price guide strategies differ between New South Wales and Queensland? 14:53 - Does having no price guide benefit or hinder auctioneers? 18:31 - How to identify dummy bidders 22:17 - What's the go-to strategy for bidding at auction with minimal data? 25:16 - What tactics can auctioneers use to spice up the bidding and get better results? 27:00 - How do auctioneers manage bidders who are unsure about walking away? 28:57 - What's your go-to bidding strategy if you can't use a sniper approach? 33:25 - How important is the skill of an auctioneer in guiding inexperienced bidders? 34:36 - What's the auctioneer's role in driving momentum during a competitive auction? 36:23 - How much of an auctioneer's skills are innate versus learned? 40:55 - How much practice is required each week for an average auctioneer? 42:18 - How do auctioneers use buyer profiling to secure the highest bid? 44:45 - Do behavioural factors affect bidding outcomes? 49:01 - Justin Nickerson's property dumbo About Our Guest: Justin Nickerson, recognized as Australasia's leading auctioneer, has won the prestigious Australasian Auctioneer of the Year award three times and the REIQ Auctioneer of the Year five times.

Welcome back Herders! The next episode on Opossums (/əˈpɒsəmz/) are members of the marsupial order Didelphimorphia endemic to the Americas. The largest order of marsupials in the Western Hemisphere, it comprises 126 species in 18 genera. Opossums originated in South America and entered North America in the Great American Interchange following the connection of North and South America. The Virginia opossum is the only species found in the United States and Canada. It is often simply referred to as an opossum, and in North America it is commonly referred to as a possum[3] (/ˈpɒsəm/; sometimes rendered as 'possum in written form to indicate the dropped "o"). The Australasian arboreal marsupials of suborder Phalangeriformes are also called possums because of their resemblance to opossums, but they belong to a different order. The opossum is typically a nonaggressive animal and almost never carries the virus that causes rabies.[4]

Her last two albums going number one in Australia, Amy Shark is set to release her latest work. She burst onto the global music scene in 2019, winning eight ARIA awards, and performed or written songs with Travis Barker, Ed Sheeran, Keith Urban, and Coldplay. ‘Sunday Sadness' is due out in August, with an Australasian tour following behind in October. Shark is 38 years old, and finding success later on in the game has ensured she doesn't take it for granted. She told Mike Hosking that she revels in her success, maybe more than others who maybe had a bit more luck and success early on. “Everything's really exciting for me still because like, you know, I didn't get signed till I was like 30,” Shark said. “I feel like I've done so much, like, I really went hard the second I got signed." Getting signed allowed Shark to create music she loves. “I still love making music,” she told Hosking. “It doesn't feel like a job.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's critter isn't tiny, unloved or even unattractive, but it is bizarre. The puteketeke or Australasian crested grebe was crowned Bird of the Century last year thanks to an 'alarmingly aggressive' campaign by talk show host John Oliver. The puteketeke got a whopping 290,374 votes, light years ahead of the second-place winner - the North Island brown kiwi, which got 12,904 votes. John Oliver chose to champion the bird because "They puke, they do a 'weed' dance before mating, they have great hair, and there are fewer than 1000 of them left in New Zealand!"

Releasing this episode on our 4th Anniversary; we are beyond excited to have a special and featured guest on today's episode of INXS: Access all Areas. Jon Lamoreaux from The Hustle Podcast, based in Denver Colorado has created over 470 episodes of fantastic music deep dive content over the last 9 years to critical acclaim. The original driving inspiration behind Haydn creating this INXS podcast with Bee, Jon's musical passion, love of Australian/New Zealand artists and fantastic dulcet tones has resulted in nearly a million downloads since its inception creating hours upon hours of interesting content that has brought listening pleasure to thousands. Today we join forces to discuss the DNA of the Australasian music scene and how a band like INXS were able to take the mantle from iconic “live acts” that preceded them such as The Angels, AC/DC, Cold Chisel, Dragon, Midnight Oil and Split Enz to name just a few. What was this notion called “grit” that permeated all of these acts to perform to such truly high levels and meant the public/concert goers were given blistering, raw and pulsating performances up close and personal every time. We talk about INXS' place in history, their Rock n Roll Hall of Fame prospects plus what musically they meant to an ardent fan such as Jon. Filled with fantastic anecdotes, references, opinions and passion, this unique episode is one we are proud to share with you and trust you'll love it as much as we do. There won't be dropping an episode this weekend. We would like to wish all the Mothers out there a restful Mother's day, including Bee.

In episode 131, we embarked on a deep dive into INXS compilation albums (1982's INXSIVE and 1994 Greatest Hits) with attention and detail. In the 2001-2002 period, INXS Management undertook the release of two distinct compilation albums for two different regions. “Shine like it Does” under their USA label Rhino, a 42 song extravaganza covering 1979-1997 released primarily in the USA. Secondly, “The Years:1979-1997” for their Australian market, a 41 song deep dive catalogue representation covering their Australasian and global career. With the band in a holding pattern, both releases served to remind old fans and new ones, the deep musical contribution INXS made to the sonic soundscapes since the inception. Both these releases overcame the shortfalls of 1994's Greatest Hits releases in the USA, UK and Australia respectively and provided true fans with a thorough representation of their singles, appropriate album deep cuts and liner notes within to die for! Often, complication albums can be a cynical record company cash grab exploiting each albums continued sale prospects. Pleasingly, this isn't one of these exercises as both discs cover nearly 95% of the band's recording successes.

Panel members: A/Prof. Tooran Alizadeh, Dr. Rebecca Clements, A/Prof. Glen Searle, A/prof Dallas Rogers, Elle Davidson (University of Sydney), Crystal Legacy (University of Melbourne), Liton Kamruzzaman (Monash University). Discussant: Jago Dodson (RMIT) This podcast series is sponsored by the Infrastructure Governance Incubator, a three-year (2020-2023) collaborative research platform—funded by the Henry Halloran Research Trust—across three universities (The University of Sydney, The University of Melbourne and Monash University) and in partnership with Planning Institute of Australia (PIA) NSW & Victoria.

In the 1890s Australian and New Zealand women became the first in the world to win the vote. Buoyed by their victories, they promised to lead a global struggle for the expansion of women's electoral rights. Charting the common trajectory of the colonial suffrage campaigns, James Keating's book Distant Sisters: Australasian Women and the International Struggle for the Vote, 1880-1914 (Manchester UP, 2020) uncovers the personal and material networks that transformed feminist organising. Considering intimate and institutional connections, well-connected elites and ordinary women, this book argues developments in Auckland, Sydney, and Adelaide―long considered the peripheries of the feminist world―cannot be separated from its glamourous metropoles. Focusing on Antipodean women, simultaneously insiders and outsiders in the emerging international women's movement, and documenting the failures of their expansive vision alongside its successes, this book reveals a more contingent history of international organising and challenges celebratory accounts of fin-de-siècle global connection.

In Part 1 Kristin is taking us through the six characteristics of imposter syndrome, aka imposter phenomenon, and providing some tips for defeating the perfectionism demons, with a bunch of rants about individualism in between. If you feel like you're hiding your incompetence from the world and it's only a matter of time until you're found out, come join us for a feisty little episode, where we'll remind you that maybe you aren't secretly stupid, maybe your boss is just a dick.
