2. Guest: Jeremy Zakis. Jeremy Zakisdiscusses how extreme rainfall, specifically seven inches in the Northern Territory, is driving wildlife toward human habitats,. He recounts a rescue mission in Queensland delayed by a large snake, which was eventually identified by a conservationist as a non-venomous brown tree snake rather than a deadly species. Zakis also shares a heartwarming story about a possum at Hobart Airport that sought shelter in a gift shop, cuddling with plush toys before being safely relocated. These events lead Zakis to reflect on Australia's strong culture of animal conservation and evolving human-animal ethics,. (2)

El real decreto-ley de medidas extraordinarias para hacer frente a las consecuencias de la guerra en Irán, aprobado ayer por el Consejo de Ministros y publicado esta mañana en el BOE, contempla líneas de apoyo específicas para los sectores agrario y pesquero. Se trata de un potente paquete de ayudas por un valor superior a 877 millones de euros. Principalmente, se establece una ayuda directa a agricultores para la compra de fertilizantes Y una subvención de 20 céntimos por litro para la compra de gasóleo de uso agrícola.El acuerdo de libre comercio que en estos momentos están a punto de firmar la Unión Europea (UE) y Australia ha encendido las alertas en el sector ovino. Interovic, la Organización Interprofesional Agroalimentaria del Ovino y el Caprino de Carne, advierte de que el volumen de importaciones solicitado por Australia va a tener un impacto significativo sobre la producción nacional.El Gobierno de Aragón ya tiene perfiladas las indemnizaciones a las que tendrán derecho los ganaderos que se han visto obligados a sacrificar sus reses después de que se detectara un brote de dermatosis nodular en sus explotaciones. Son dos los productores afectados, por el momento, ambos en Borrastre, una pedanía de la localidad oscense de Fiscal, que han perdido toda su cabaña, un total (entre ambos) de 281 animales.

Hailing from Australia and now based in Berlin, Leah Marie is part of a new wave of artists shaping the deeper end of the electronic spectrum. Her sound moves between deep, progressive and melodic house, with a touch of cerebral techno; built on groove, restraint and a strong sense of space. In the booth, she favours flow over flash, guiding sets with careful pacing and an instinct for atmosphere. Her productions and remixes have found a home on labels include Mango Alley to Musique de Lune Noir, with further releases on the horizon. Along the way, she's taken that sound beyond Berlin, playing across Germany, Portugal, the Netherlands and the UK. In 2025, she co-founded Kontrast. with Dilby and Dowden: a Berlin-based event centred on the deeper, groove-led corners of house music. The next edition lands at Hotel Amano East Rooftop on Saturday 11th April (more info here). On this Balance Selections mix, the rising producer displays a taste for a wide-ranging sound. Featuring tracks from Timo Maas, Patrice Baumel, Chus & Ceballos and more, this is a two-hour mix that evolves with patience and intent. @leahmariemusic-australia Tracklisting & interview: balancemusic.com.au/balance-selections-362-leah-marie ------------------------------------- Follow: Instagram: www.instagram.com/balance_series Facebook: www.facebook.com/balanceseriesmusic Youtube: www.youtube.com/@balancemusicofficial
Prince Harry is said to be frustrated with the pressures of the entertainment industry and reportedly ready to step away from Hollywood, while Meghan Markle remains determined to continue producing projects despite setbacks with Netflix.Sources say Meghan is focused on moving forward with new ideas and leaning on her industry connections, while Harry appears more comfortable concentrating on Invictus and charitable work.Meanwhile, royal commentators are mocking Meghan's planned appearance at a luxury women's retreat in Australia, comparing the event to a Comic-Con style meet-and-greet after reports that guests may pay around $1,700 for photos and access.And could a new dramatization of the Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor scandal be coming to television?Insiders say studios are exploring projects connected to The Crown brand, a possibility that reportedly has Prince William furious.If you enjoy royal drama, check out our podcast series Crown and Controversy, often described as picking up where The Crown left off.

Prince Harry reportedly believes he and Meghan Markle still have an important role to play helping the monarchy connect with audiences around the world, particularly at a time when the institution faces renewed scrutiny following the Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor controversy.At the same time, Meghan's lifestyle brand As Ever is facing criticism from customers after complaints about product quality,including candles arriving without wicks and fruit spreads described as too runny.Marketing experts say the solution may be simple: improve the product and let positive customer experiences reshape the online conversation.Columnists are also debating Meghan's upcoming appearance at a luxury women's retreat in Australia, with some critics comparing the event to a paid meet-and-greet while supporters argue the duchess is proving herself a savvy businesswoman.Plus, Meghan makes a quiet visit to Children's Hospital Los Angeles, and a documentary executive produced by the Sussexes, Cookie Queens, secures theatrical distribution in the United States.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Traveling around, I've become aware of how Pacific Northwest rain is different from rain patterns in other regions of the US. Take Texas, for example. Texas rain pours. Houses don't have gutters there, presumably because they can't engineer them large enough to accommodate the deluges reliably. Storm water infrastructure is three times the size of what I see around here. In contrast, Oregon rain is persistent. Drizzle can last for days. It's kind of like the tortoise and the hare, I guess. This soundscape was recorded in Forest Park last year around this time, on a dead-end, unnamed trail that doesn't see a lot of use, but nonetheless features a sturdy old bench. It is a pretty sweet listening spot for this reason, and this particular time slice offers a pretty accurate sound portrait of our soft rain. Our soft power. Did you know that the Pacific Temperate Rainforest—a bioregion extending from the northern California redwoods to the coastal forests along the gulf of Alaska—can pack more carbon per acre than a tropical rainforest like the Amazon? The Pacific Temperate Rainforest is the second-most dense biomass repository and carbon sink in the world (bested only by the Eucalyptus regnant forests of Victoria and Tasmania, Australia) and it's what gives our Pacific Northwest rain its unique character (and sound). The Pacific Temperate Rainforest operates like a giant lung. Just as a lung draws in air, extracts what's vital, and releases what the body needs to stay alive, the Pacific Temperate Rainforest breathes on a continental scale, pulling carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and locking it away in massive old-growth trunks, roots, and the deep organic soils beneath them, while exhaling oxygen and releasing moisture that cycles inland as rain. The forest doesn't just store carbon passively; it actively pumps water vapor into the atmosphere, seeding clouds and feeding rivers that sustain salmon, which in turn fertilize the forest floor when they die. It's a closed loop where nothing is wasted.Spring Shower is available under the artist name Listening Spot on all streaming platforms Friday, March 20th, 2026.

Qatar's state-owned petroleum company says an Iranian ballistic missile attack on its main gas complex at Ras Laffan has caused widespread destruction. Several Gulf states were attacked by Iran after its largest gas field South Pars was hit in an Israeli strike. President Trump has warned Iran not to launch further attacks on Qatar, or face a "massive" response from the US. He said Iran's gas field had been attacked by Israel - not the United States. But he said the US would "blow" it up if Tehran continued to retaliate.Also: America's top spies tell a Senate committee that after almost three weeks of war, the Iranian leadership remains largely intact - contradicting President Trump's framing of the war as a success.

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Janet Brunckhorst. What if your charitable dollars could do more than sit and wait to be granted out? In this episode, Janet shares how she began rethinking her donor advised fund as a giving vehicle and as a tool for investing in climate solutions. That shift opened the door to deeper money conversations about risk, liquidity, partnership and how to assign value to uncertain outcomes. Janet is a climate tech advisor, investor, and fractional executive. She provides strategic and operational support to climate founders in the US and Australia. Janet has led cross-functional teams building software products for the last 20 years, with her time at Aurora Solar cementing her commitment to the energy transition. She lives in San Francisco with her husband, kids, and cat, writes songs about science, swims in the Bay, and misses Melbourne coffee. Curiosity, Risk and Rewriting the Rules Janet Brunckhorst's story shows how early experiences with money can shape our comfort with risk and uncertainty. Growing up with financial anxiety and later seeing a family safety net disappear taught her that wealth can be unpredictable. Those lessons helped her take thoughtful risks, from traveling on a loan as a student to moving across the world with a young child and no job lined up. Her journey also highlights that money conversations are rarely just about numbers. Whether navigating different budgeting styles with her husband or deciding how to think about equity compensation in the tech world, Janet shows the value of curiosity, flexibility and honest dialogue. Today, Janet is exploring how capital can be used more intentionally for impact through her work connecting philanthropic capital with climate technology startups. For more insights on the economic possibilities that addressing climate change can create, listen to the episode with Tito Jankowski here.

We continue our deep dive into Variety's explosive report on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, focusing on what happened after the success of Harry & Meghan — and why momentum may have stalled.The article details failed scripted projects, difficulty attracting collaborators, and claims that Netflix was left with more than $10 million worth of unsold As Ever products, some reportedly given away to staff.We also examine reports of tension inside meetings, including claims about Meghan's communication style, and the company's evolving strategy to position her as a solo brand.Then, a new controversy: Meghan is set to headline a high-priced women's retreat in Australia, but questions are being raised about the finances behind the event after the organizer's company reportedly went into liquidation.Plus: King Charles hosts Nigeria's president in a major state visit, and new calls emerge to reconsider a potential royal trip to the United States amid global tensions.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

My guest today is Baz Luhrmann, the award-winning director whose films include Moulin Rouge!, Strictly Ballroom, The Great Gatsby, Elvis, and Romeo + Juliet. His newest film is EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert, a critically acclaimed documentary about Elvis that's playing right now in theaters and in IMAX. Before becoming a massively successful film director, Baz began his showbiz career as an actor, and as a ballroom dancer, in Australia. His first film was Strictly Ballroom, which came out in 1992, and became one of the highest-grossing Australian films of all time. It was originally a play, and there's a song in the film that was part of the story all the way back when it was first performed on stage. And that's what Baz and I talked about for this episode.For more info, visit songexploder.net/baz-luhrmann.
If you had to start your business over from scratch today, would you build it the same way, or would you build it entirely around an AI core? Agility requires more than just adapting to change; it demands a willingness to proactively dismantle what's working today in order to build what's necessary for tomorrow. It's about challenging the very playbook that brought you success, especially when a fundamental shift like AI arrives. Today, we're going to talk about the playbook for building a unicorn-level business in one era, and the courage it takes to reinvent that playbook for the next. We'll discuss the difference between using AI as a feature versus using it as a foundation, and how leadership and team structure need to evolve to not just survive, but thrive, during this shift. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Jason VandeBoom, Founder & CEO at ActiveCampaign.

This week on The Business of Watches, a Swiss brand that resonates with much of the Hodinkee community, Doxa. Founded in Le Locle, Switzerland, and now based in Biel/Bienne, it has more than a century of history and is responsible for designing and producing some of the most iconic dive watches ever built. With links to legendary figures, including Jacques Cousteau and author Clive Cussler, Doxa has served as a case study for how to revive, rebuild, and grow a brand by zeroing in on the best parts of its story while keeping prices approachable at a time when the industry trend is tilted very much to premiumization. Jan Edocs is the executive leading Doxa these days, and in a wide-ranging interview recorded last year, he lays out the brand's plans for measured but steady growth. Once available only online, Doxa is now in retailers across the U.S., Japan, the Middle East, and Australia, with plans to eventually be in more than 300 retail locations. At a time of cost inflation and tariffs, a significant challenge is keeping prices approachable while telling Doxa's unique story and history to fresh customers with new products. There are plenty of lessons on how to position a brand and company to weather both storms and sunny beach days, where a Doxa might just be the ideal wristwear. But first, Hodinkee Deputy Editor Tim Jeffreys drops in for his BoW debut. We talk about Grand Seiko's big move to sign baseball superstar Shohei Ohtani as a global ambassador and what it might mean for the brand.

Become a Platinum member here.You have the greatest currency in the world within you… and you can use it to break out of the toxic system we live in.This video is a little different from our usual podcast. I asked Tom Barnett to talk about Natural Law in the 2025 edition of the Confluence Festival, and his presentation called “The Offer” didn't disappoint. His path into natural law, self-sovereignty, and personal responsibility began long before he even knew those words existed. Growing up in Australia, Tom constantly questioned the limits of freedom and democracy, often finding himself in conflict with authority while trying to understand why the world felt so inconsistent and unfair. His background in holistic health, spanning sports performance, nutrition, psychology, emotional patterns, and spiritual lessons, deepened during a long personal battle with chronic fatigue that eventually pushed him to explore consciousness, natural lore, and the deeper laws shaping reality.This presentation explores how the hero's journey applies to modern life, the difference between lawful and legal systems, and why true change may begin with confronting our own inner government. If we want a different world, the first step might be remembering who we actually are.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[12:24] How law, lore, and story all connect[20:11] Why natural law is the "great leveler" and what that means for your standing [27:25] How Tom overcame 20 years of chronic fatigue[44:38] Why going fully private is a trap, and what mastering both worlds actually looks like[50:32] Your name is not you, and the pop quiz that proves it[01:00:45] Ancient knowledge was never destroyed, it's waiting in counter space[01:08:50] The difference between a grounded no and a fearful refusal[01:20:41] Why breathwork is just the beginning, and how to reach the essence beneath intentLearn more about Tom:The Humble Kingdom | WebsiteThe Humble Kingdom | InstagramTom Barnett | FacebookTom Barnett | InstagramFind more from Alec:Alec Zeck | InstagramAlec Zeck | XThe Way Forward | InstagramThe Way Forward is Sponsored By:PACHA Sourdough: The wheat-free, sprouted buckwheat bread that actually digests well.

Most people spot a gap in the market and do nothing — Konnie Tsimiklis spotted one, had zero fashion experience, and built a brand around it anyway. A management consultant by trade, Konnie spent decades avoiding swimming pools because no swimwear on the market made her feel like herself. So she created her own — Unity Cove, Australia's first gender-inclusive swimwear brand — and hit $27,000 in sales in her first three months without spending a cent on ads. In this episode, Konnie holds nothing back about what it really costs to bring a physical product to life — the $20K+ first production run, selling out on Black Friday and going three months without stock, and the single TikTok she filmed before launch that still drives the majority of her revenue today. What you'll learn in this interview: How one unscripted TikTok with no call-to-action generated 1,000 waitlist signups and became her highest-performing ad The real cost of launching a physical product — and why the "start with $500" advice doesn't always hold up Why being the face of your brand isn't just a strategy — it might be your biggest competitive advantage How to choose a manufacturer when your top two options don't both tick every box What selling out too fast actually costs you — and how to fix your inventory strategy before it happens again The difference between unisex and truly inclusive product design (and why it matters more than most brands realise) How she went from one-off hype drops to monthly pallet deliveries in under 18 months The unglamorous cash flow reality of apparel: long production cycles, tied-up capital, and hard-won supplier negotiations Why in-person community events created the kind of brand loyalty no paid ad ever could How to keep building when the financial payoff hasn't come yet — and what actually makes it worth it If you've ever had an idea you talked yourself out of because you didn't have the right background, the right budget, or the right moment — this episode will change how you think about what it actually takes to start.

Celebrity gossip lip-readers have changed the game. Because of them we know Timothée Chalamet hated the Oscars, King Charles says F and Prince William had no time for 'Andrew’s' apology. So is that ‘zero privacy’ development fair play? And what DID Timmy say to his sister about Kylie Jenner? In other scurrilous gossip, we’re meant to think that Nicole Kidman has a new friends-to-lovers boyfriend, and that Keith Urban is 'reeling'. Hmmm. Plus, peptides are the new cottage cheese, in demand from both older women and teenage boys. Except, unregulated, they can be rather more dangerous than a protein-heavy snack. So what the hell is a peptide, and how worried should we be about influencers spruiking them? (Hint: Very) 'Our' Queen Mary is touring Australia and once upon a time, that would have guaranteed tabloid mayhem. These days everything is… quieter. Is that because a midlife Queen is less enticing to the attention economy than the Carrie-esque lure of the princess fairytale? Plus, Ethan Hawke has the best advice for those suffering from unrequited love. Yes, some ageing Gen X heartthrobs are still the real deal.

AT Parenting Survival Podcast: Parenting | Child Anxiety | Child OCD | Kids & Family
Most parents think they know what their child's OCD looks like. They see the washing. The checking. The obvious behaviors.But what they're usually seeing is just the tip of the iceberg.OCD isn't only handwashing or checking. It's mental reviewing, silent debating, internal checking, trying to “neutralize” a thought, confessing, reassurance seeking, avoidance, symmetry rituals, and that constant need for things to feel just right. Many of the most powerful compulsions happen completely inside your child's mind, which means you will never see all of them.In this episode, we're talking about how OCD really works, why you can't be the OCD police, and how to shift from trying to catch compulsions to teaching your child the skills to delay and resist them. Because empowerment, not surveillance, is what actually builds long term resilience.If you want detailed guidance on how to teach your child to handle OCD at home, you can learn more at www.natashadaniels.com/parentcourse.If you are a parent who feels like you're missing something but can't quite see what OCD is doing behind the scenes, this episode is for you.Get this week's PDF handout at www.natashadaniels.com/handout***This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

What if money isn't something to chase, control, or fear, but a mirror of how deeply you're willing to remember who you are?This conversation with Elizabeth Ralph is one I will return to again and again.Elizabeth is the founder of The Spiritual Investor, host of The Spiritual Investor Podcast, and the guide behind a rapidly growing global movement that is reframing wealth, investing, and financial freedom through a lens most people were never taught: energy, consciousness, and self-expression.But this episode goes far beyond money.What unfolded here felt like a transmission about sacred remembrance.We explore what happens when you stop treating money as something separate from love, truth, or spiritual growth, and instead recognize it as an energetic reflection of your identity, your standards, and your willingness to choose the life that is calling you forward.If you've ever felt the tension between the spiritual path and the material world... If you've wondered how wealth and awakening actually coexist... Or if you're standing on the edge of a bigger life and can hear the old fears whispering...this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.I first discovered Elizabeth through the brilliant Luke Storey's podcast, The Life Stylist, and I remember listening to their conversation three times in two days because no one was talking about money like this.Her perspective is precise, embodied, and deeply liberating.And in this episode, we go even deeper.We talk about the moment Elizabeth chose to redefine freedom on her own terms. Why certainty, not strategy, is the real foundation of wealth. How effortless action emerges when your identity expands. Why spiritual people often unconsciously block money. And why the deepest work may simply be learning to drop the past in real time.Something Elizabeth shared that I am still sitting with:The version of you three months from now who is already living in the expanded place believes in it just as much as you believe in your current reality.There is no more evidence for one than the other. There never was.Which means the only thing that changes everything is what you choose to believe right now.At the heart of it all is something deceptively simple.Money is not separate from love.And when you begin to live from that truth, everything changes.In this episode, we exploreElizabeth's radical definition of money and why she sees money as loveThe kangaroo on a beach in Australia that sparked the question that changed her lifeWhy certainty is the real currency behind wealth creationHow identity expansion naturally changes the way money flows into your lifeThe difference between efficiency and true effortless actionWhy spiritual people often unconsciously block money while doing everything "right"How investing can become an act of empowerment rather than fearThe energetic shift that happens when you choose first and let reality catch upWhy being seen and truly seeing others may be the real source of abundanceResources + LinksExplore Elizabeth's work and learn more about The Spiritual Investor Mastermind: https://thespiritualinvestor.comListen to The Spiritual Investor Podcast: https://thespiritualinvestor.com/podcastListen to the episode that first introduced me to Elizabeth on The Life Stylist Podcast with Luke Storey: The Spiritual Investor Episode →https://www.lukestorey.com/lifestylistpodcast/619 Hosted on Acast.

For years, a calm, calculating predator stalked the suburbs of Melbourne, leaving behind almost no evidence — only terrified families and a growing legend known as "Mr. Cruel." Decades later, his crimes remain unsolved, and the questions surrounding Karmein Chan's murder still haunt Australia.

It started with a locked door in a luxury Melbourne apartment building. A concierge pushed harder, expecting a pile of trash, until she saw a woman's body lying in blood on the other side. The victim was Phoebe Handsjuk, a 24-year-old resident of the building, and her death would spark one of Australia's most baffling and controversial investigations. From strange details at the scene to decisions that raised serious questions, the case quickly unraveled into something far more disturbing than it first appeared. How did Phoebe end up in the garbage room and why were so many critical questions never fully answered….If you're new here, don't forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!
