Beat Migs! Hopefully it's not as bad as the Australian bird man who's been causing poo explosions.
According to a recent ASIC report, millions of Australians rely on mortgage offset accounts to reduce the cost of their home loan, but an ASIC review has found customers may have been unknowingly paying more interest than they should because some banks failed to properly manage offset accounts. That’s because banks have not been delivering … Continue reading "Robbed Again: Banks Behaving Badly Making Mortgages More Expensive!"
New property can offer compelling advantages for investors, but “new” doesn’t automatically mean “better”. As Australian property investors reassess their options in the post-Budget environment, eligible new residential property is attracting increasing attention thanks to potential tax, depreciation, maintenance and cash-flow benefits. But those benefits only matter if the underlying investment stacks up. This week on Get Invested, Bushy Martin is joined by two property investment specialists from Adviseable, founder Kate Hill and new-build expert Alex Dutt, to cut through the simplistic new-versus-established debate and examine what makes a quality new-build investment actually work. Kate is a Licensed Buyer’s Agent, Qualified Property Investment Adviser (QPIA), experienced property investor and co-author of the award-winning book The Female Investor. She brings the strategy, location, demand and asset-selection lens to the conversation. Alex has been investing in property since 2004 and specialises in the new-build and turnkey construction process, helping investors navigate everything from sites, builders and contracts to specifications, costs, finance sequencing, inspections and handover. Together, they explain why investors need to forget the word “new” initially and first ask whether they would still want to own the property based on its location, demand, scarcity and long-term owner-occupier appeal. Because tax benefits, depreciation and a shiny new kitchen cannot rescue a poor investment. They also unpack one of the most misunderstood parts of new-build investing: the difference between a marketed “package price” and the true tenant-ready cost. Bushy, Kate and Alex explore the risks that can emerge between buying the land and collecting the first rent, including construction delays, variations, builder issues, valuation gaps, finance complications and overlooked inclusions, and how the right process, buffers and independent specialists can help manage them. The message isn’t that new property is superior to established property, or vice versa. It’s that superiority needs to be earned by evidence. In this episode you’ll discover: Why investment quality should always come before “newness” How to compare quality new builds with quality established property Why scarcity, location and owner-occupier appeal remain critical What “turnkey” should really mean for an investor Why the advertised package price may not be the true cost How to calculate the tenant-ready, all-in investment cost The construction, builder and valuation risks investors need to understand Why construction finance requires different planning and sequencing The importance of contingency buffers before you start building Why independent inspections and separately accountable advisers matter How Adviseable approaches new builds from strategy and location first, rather than starting with available stock Where depreciation, stamp-duty savings, warranties, lower maintenance and tenant appeal can strengthen the investment case How to decide whether a new build genuinely deserves a place in your long-term wealth strategy For the right investor, in the right location, at the right price and with the right team, a quality new build can be a powerful post-Budget investment pathway. But the brochure doesn’t get to decide that. The evidence does. Connect with Adviseable here: adviseable.com.au FREE PROPERTY INVESTOR’S FIELD GUIDE How Should I Invest In Property Now?

They examine the value of orbital rail, balancing infrastructure costs with long-term city planning, governance challenges and why integrated transport networks should support more than CBD commuting. The conversation also explores road space reallocation, traffic behaviour and the importance of designing cities around local access. Infrastructure Australia and better project selection The discussion turns to Infrastructure Australia's role in assessing nationally significant projects. Brian explains why rigorous business cases and genuine comparison of alternatives are essential, while David questions politically driven project announcements and stresses the need for strategic planning that considers broader regional outcomes rather than isolated headline projects. Volkswagen Multivan, Kombi legacy and ID. Buzz Volkswagen's updated Multivan prompts a look back at the Kombi's enduring cultural impact. David and Brian debate whether Volkswagen should have retained the Kombi name, compare the Multivan with the electric ID. Buzz and discuss the changing Australian people mover market, practical cabin design and thoughtful features that improve everyday driving. XPeng X9 electric people mover Brian outlines the Australian launch pricing and specifications for the XPeng X9, including its long driving range, rapid charging capability and AI-powered onboard systems.

Short description David Brown and Paul Murrell examine the pressures reshaping the automotive industry, from Volkswagen's restructuring and the rise of Chinese manufacturers to BMW's expanding EV line-up and Mercedes-Maybach's new approach to luxury. The program also explores transport branding, public transport planning and the future of smaller car brands in Australia, mixing industry analysis with practical observations and motoring history. 1. Volkswagen under pressure — 03:46 2. BMW expands its EV range — 15:47 3. Mercedes-Maybach redefines luxury — 27:02 4. Branding and public transport identity — 33:22 5. Fiat and Alfa Romeo under pressure — 42:53 6. Hyundai Ioniq 6 N road test — 52:24 Full summary Tech frustrations & updates David and Paul open with a light-hearted discussion about software updates, usability and why dependable technology often beats constant change. They compare today's digital frustrations with simpler, more reliable systems. Volkswagen under pressure The pair discuss Volkswagen's reported restructuring, competition from Chinese brands, excess manufacturing capacity and changing consumer expectations. They question whether Australia's market trends may foreshadow global shifts and debate the value of heritage versus product quality and value. BMW expands EV range BMW's new iX3 is examined alongside the brand's broader EV strategy, charging technology and pricing. The discussion highlights how premium manufacturers are increasingly building electric vehicles people want to drive first, rather than simply buying because they are electric. Mercedes-Maybach luxury rethink Mercedes-Maybach's latest flagship illustrates how luxury is evolving beyond large screens to ride comfort, intelligent suspension and advanced driver assistance. The hosts consider how technology is redefining prestige. Great British Railways branding A discussion on UK rail branding argues that successful transport branding is about customer experience rather than logos. The conversation broadens into Australian examples where branding can confuse rather than assist passengers. Fast buses & transport choices The hosts compare long-distance buses, trains, flights and driving, arguing that total journey time, convenience and city access often matter more than headline travel speeds. Fiat, Alfa Romeo & market shake-up The program concludes with the uncertain future of Fiat in Australia, Alfa Romeo's challenges and the broader rationalisation of automotive brands as competition intensifies. Hyundai Ioniq 6 N road test David Brown and Paul Murrell assess whether the Hyundai Ioniq 6 N is more than an electric straight-line performer. They conclude Hyundai's N division has created a genuine driver's car, combining exceptional performance with sophisticated chassis tuning, although its track-focused features—including drift mode, configurable power delivery and simulated gear changes—are largely impractical for public roads. The discussion explores the car's polarising aerodynamic design, balancing low drag with added downforce from its prominent rear wing, and the compromises between efficiency, grip and performance. Interior highlights include supportive sports seats, extensive steering-wheel controls and the "N Grin Boost" function, while the artificial engine sounds divide opinion, with David preferring authentic vehicle feedback over digital simulation. Despite winning international recognition as World Performance Car of the Year, the Ioniq 6 N occupies a niche position at around $125,000 drive-away. The hosts note its practicality alongside its track capability but observe that Australian sales remain extremely limited, prompting questions about whether Hyundai's next-generation model will adopt styling changes to broaden its appeal. The program concludes with thanks to Paul Murrell and a reminder that extended editions are available via podcast and the Cars, Transport, Culture website and social media channels.

Jack Osbourne grew up with cameras in the house. The Osbourne's made his family the biggest thing on television, and he was earning seven figures by 15. He got sober at 17 and has held that line for over two decades. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at 26. Since then he's built his own lane — adventure television, paranormal investigation, two podcasts, and a purple belt in jiu-jitsu. Last July, his father played the biggest farewell show in rock history. Seventeen days later, Ozzy was gone. This conversation carries weight and goes sideways in equal measure. Making serious money as a kid and learning the hard way that the people hired to protect it don't always deserve the trust. Grieving a parent while untangling the business that comes with a famous last name. The final concert — a living wake where his dad got to say goodbye on his own terms — and the week at home together afterward. Then the throttle opens: the UFC card on the White House South Lawn, a month in the Australian jungle on 500 calories a day, ghost stories he can't explain, the Nazca mummies, a plan to buy a decommissioned aircraft carrier, and bringing OzFest back.

Send us Fan MailWelcome back to DMR! In this episode, we dive into Apex (2026) — Netflix's intense Australian survival thriller starring Charlize Theron as a grieving woman forced into a deadly fight for survival deep in the wilderness. Joining her is Taron Egerton, delivering a standout performance as Ben, a mysterious and resourceful stranger whose presence becomes central to the film's escalating tension. Their dynamic drives the emotional core of the story, blending vulnerability, suspicion, and raw endurance as the two navigate both the brutal terrain and a relentless human predator.Directed by Baltasar Kormákur, Apex is crafted with a visceral, moment‑to‑moment realism that critics praise for its immersive pacing and breathtaking use of the Australian landscape. We break down Theron's powerhouse physical performance, Egerton's layered portrayal of Ben, Jeremy Robbins' tight survival‑drama script, and the film's impressive production team — including producers Peter Chernin, Jenno Topping, David Ready, Ian Bryce, Charlize Theron, Beth Kono, A.J. Dix, and Kormákur himself.Be sure to grab your 30 Day Free Audible Trial link in the show!Support the showThe audio/video clips used in this podcast, including excerpts from movie/series/documentary trailers, are used under the principles of fair use and fair dealing for the purpose of criticism, commentary, and review.

A $6.9 million estimate. A $1.25 billion catastrophe. How fake deadlines, a rigged bid, and a steering committee allergic to bad news turned a routine payroll migration into one of the biggest project disasters in Australian history. What happens when project leadership treats risk management as optional, decision making gets diffused across committees, and a hard deadline turns out to be completely negotiable? You get one of the most instructive project failure case studies in project management history — and in this episode, Kim and Kate pour it out one painful lesson at a time. The subject is Queensland Health, the public healthcare provider for the Australian state of Queensland, employing roughly 85,000 people across about 300 sites. In 2005, their legacy payroll vendor gave them three years' notice: support ends June 30, 2008. Sounds like plenty of runway — until the organization waited two of those three years to act. By the time a consultant named Terry Burns (remember that name) ran the procurement and IBM signed a contract in December 2007, the original $6.9 million estimate had ballooned to a $98 million contract with just six months to deliver a system covering more than 24,000 unique payroll combinations. Why does this matter for project managers and leaders? Because almost nothing that went wrong here is exotic. Late project intake. Governance where a transition team, a steering committee, and an IT department all had partial authority but no single decision-making structure. Two weeks — total — for requirements gathering on a nine-figure program. A "lift and shift" strategy that preserved every broken process and demanded 2,500 custom software configurations to replicate them. As Kim and Kate walk through it, the episode becomes a masterclass in how ordinary project management failures compound into organizational catastrophe. The discussion highlights are equal parts horrifying and hilarious. There's the program's actual internal slogan, taken straight from the project materials: "Plan A or Die" — no continuity plan, no risk mitigation, no fallback. There's the June 2008 deadline that came and went with a simple change request and some extended support from the legacy vendor, prompting Kate's sharp observation that the date was fake and not fake at once: end-of-life risk is real even when the cliff turns out to be movable. There's the UAT phase in June 2009 that surfaced 2,422 severe defects — after which the steering committee simply reclassified high-severity defects as lower severity so the dashboards would show enough green to proceed. Watermelon project, indeed. And when frontline payroll staff kept failing the system in testing, leadership's answer was to remove the requirement for business sign-off entirely. The go-live in March 2010 delivered the reckoning: 35,000 payroll anomalies, roughly $400 million in accidental overpayments, zero-dollar paychecks for healthcare workers, and government debt collectors hounding nurses for money they never asked to receive. Queensland ultimately hired a thousand staff to manually prop up the new system — a 40 percent increase in labor over the old one — with a projected five-year cost to taxpayers of $1.25 billion. The commission of inquiry that followed, led by the Right Honourable Richard Noel Chesterman, revealed the final twist: Terry Burns, a former IBMer, had leaked a competitor's bid specs to IBM and browbeaten the selection panel into rescoring until IBM won. And when the state sued? A release buried in the fine print of a change order had signed away its right to litigate. Grab a drink and join us. Quotes from the Episode "Everyone's in charge, so no one's in charge." — Kate "If you've got a deadline, question the deadline." — Kim "I've heard the term watermelon project where they're green on the outside and red on the inside." — Kim "And you are paying that company that you're hiring to learn." — Kate "But ultimately, if your project options are plan A or die. Maybe sometimes the best option is die." — Kim Practical Takeaways Governance and decision rights — When multiple bodies share authority without a single decision-making structure, accountability evaporates ("everyone's in charge, so no one's in charge"). Deadline validation — Interrogate whether a project deadline is a true constraint or a negotiable date, and what options (like extended vendor support) exist beyond it. The watermelon project pattern — Recognizing status distortion, including reclassifying defect severity and removing sign-off requirements to force green dashboards. Parallel run as cutover risk mitigation — Why replacing a legacy business-critical system requires side-by-side operation and validation before go-live. Procurement integrity and vendor selection — The risks of conflicts of interest in vendor selection, of choosing a vendor with no prior experience delivering the solution, and of unreviewed contract fine print. Closing Reflection Nobody ever really "accepts" a risk on paper. When risks are realized, someone always pays—taxpayers, frontline workers, or the organization itself. Sometimes the bravest act of project leadership is admitting that Plan A deserves to die.
Have you ever asked yourself: should I do Keto? Is white rice good for me? Am I eating too many carbohydrates? If so, then this episode of The Food Chain is for you. Carbohydrate-rich foods are everywhere and they're delicious. But are they good for us? Carbs have a reputation for spiking our blood sugar and making us fat. But is that reputation deserved? Ruth Alexander talks to Javier Gonzalez, Professor of Nutrition and Metabolism at the University of Bath in England and US-based dietitian Julie Stefanski from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics to find out whether we've been approaching carbohydrates all wrong. Plus: are there some populations who need to think more carefully about carbs than others? Dr Nelum Dharmapriya thinks so. She's an Australian family doctor with a special interest in metabolic health in South Asian populations. She advises her patients to make some tweaks to the traditional South Asian carbohydrate-rich diet and says it can be done without losing heritage and identity.If you would like to get in touch with the show, please email: thefoodchain@bbc.co.ukProduced by Lexy O'Connor and Beatrice Pickup.(Image: A woman stares over her sunglasses as she slurps pasta from a fork in a sunlit garden.Credit: Getty images/BBC)
Australia banned social media for under-16s. It hasn't stopped kids from using it. New research shows most young people are still logging on, creating fake accounts and finding easy ways around age checks. Dr Justin Coulson explains why the law isn't delivering what parents hoped for and why families still have the biggest influence on their children's online lives. Then the conversation turns to something far more hopeful. Dutch children are the happiest in the world. It's not because Dutch parents have all the answers. Their families spend more time together. Their children have more independence. Their communities are built around connection. Justin and Kylie unpack what Australian parents can borrow, even if we can't recreate the Dutch system. KEY POINTS What the first research on Australia's social media ban found. How children are getting around age verification. Why parents still need to lead screen time at home. The habits that help Dutch children report the highest levels of happiness. Why friendships, family time and independence matter more than expensive programs. Simple ways to create stronger community around your own family. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE "The legislation can't do the parenting for us. We still have to do the job." RESOURCES MENTIONED Boys: Building Strong Young Men from the Inside Out by Dr Justin Coulson 10 Things Every Parent Needs to Know by Dr Justin Coulson Misconnection by Dr Justin Coulson Happy Families resources at happyfamilies.com.au Research: Early Effects of Australia's Social Media Minimum Age Act on Adolescents' Social Media Use ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Don't assume the social media ban is keeping your child off social media. Check in often. Talk about social media regularly instead of waiting until something goes wrong. Protect family time by working it into your weekly routine. Help your child build friendships through school, sport and local activities. Invite another family over, organise a neighbourhood catch-up or say yes to the next community event.

There is a version of leadership that looks effortless from the outside. The one where the leader always has the answers, always holds the vision, always appears composed. And then there is the version that happens in private, at 5:00 AM, when your mind is rehearsing every possible failure and no one can see it. What surprises most people is how often those two versions belong to the same person. In part two of my conversation with Christian O'Connell, breakfast radio host heard by hundreds of thousands of Australians every morning, we get into the parts of leadership nobody talks about publicly. Christian opens up about the loneliness of leading a team, the night he finally put his thoughts on a whiteboard and told his people the truth about how he'd been feeling, and why he believes his next book will be about leadership because nobody warned him how hard it would be. If you have ever found yourself carrying something heavy at work and deciding the most responsible thing to do as a leader is keep it to yourself, this conversation will make you question whether that instinct is actually protecting your team or just protecting you. Christian and I discuss: Why confidence is the wrong thing to aim for before you speak in public What happened when Christian finally stopped pretending everything was fine with his team The one thing that does more for a team than any solution or action plan Why 5am is the worst possible time to trust your own thoughts The David Letterman line that changed how Christian thinks about taking risks Why Christian considers himself an accidental leader, and what he's doing about it Key quotes "Confidence is something that catches up. Momentum is more important." "It's a beautiful thing, leadership. If you get it right, it's a path of aliveness and transformation. If you get it wrong, it's the opposite."

John welcomes New York York Times White House reporter Jonathan Swan to discuss his runaway No. 1 bestseller, “Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump,” co-authored with Maggie Haberman, and how the reporting in the book illuminates Trump's inability to bring a tidy end to the war in Iran, fixation on election-related conspiracy theories, and pronounced disinterest in the economic struggles of ordinary voters. Swan also reveals the strategy behind his Emmy-winning TV interview with Trump in 2020—and how a fringe Australian politician with a yen for kangaroo feces fueled his meteoric rise in journalism.

Today is my dog Bear's third birthday, and sitting here scrolling through photos made me realize how much a three-year-old Australian shepherd has taught me about living at full capacity. The lessons he models every single day, without thinking about it, are things most of us struggle to apply even when we know better. I break down four specific behaviors Bear lives by that, if you adopted them, would change how you start your mornings, how you focus your energy, and how you show up for the people who matter most. This one is personal, but the lessons hit hard. Key Takeaways Every morning is a genuinely new day. Waking up with the expectation that today is your day attracts opportunity and conditions your mind to spot what is going right. You have to hit the ground running. Decision-making energy is finite, and the early part of your day is when you are at your sharpest. Protect that window. Full immersion beats multitasking every time. Pouring everything into the task in front of you produces higher quality results and fewer regrets. Presence is a form of love. Whether you are in a meeting, on a hike, or at dinner, being completely there is one of the most powerful things you can offer. Show genuine excitement for the people you care about. Letting someone know their presence lights you up costs nothing and means everything. Action Steps Set a morning intention before you look at your phone. Say out loud that today is your day and identify one thing you will accomplish before 8 a.m. For the next seven days, pick one task or one conversation per day and commit to zero distractions until it is finished. No switching, no half-effort. The next time someone you care about walks through the door, greet them like it matters. Put the phone down, make eye contact, and let them feel it. Notable Quote You gotta be great by eight. Because after 8 a.m., there's no telling where the day's gonna go, but that time before is for me.

Jeremy Zakis reports meteorologists predict a record-breaking Super El Niño, which is expected to cause extreme heat and unpredictable drought patterns globally. Currently, Sydney's winter is unusually cold and dry, causing physical discomfort for residents. This lack of rainfall threatens the Warragamba Dam supply and points toward a dangerous, early fire season starting in September. This irregular "Godzilla" climate pattern deviates sharply from the typical mild, wet Australian winters usually experienced. (1)
Alan Philps tells of Nadia, a translator at the Metropol Hotel who became a "secret dissident" after losing faith in Stalinism during the purges. She trusted Australian journalist Godfrey Blunden, believing him to be more reliable than "snobbish" British or career-driven American reporters. She shared her true, dangerous views with him and even took him to visit private Soviet homes, which was strictly forbidden. However, Blunden betrayed her by publishing a novel that thinly disguised her identity and the locations she had shown him. This led to Nadia's arrest in 1948 and an eight-year sentence in the Gulag, where she faced starvation. Her husband and daughter were also broken by the system. Nadia eventually survived, moving to Israel in the 1970s.
