Occam Defense Pistol Discussion The discussion centered on the Occam Defense OD-1775 pistol, which Jarrad described as a smaller version of the rifle, featuring walnut wood and a powerful 10.5-inch barrel. The professor explained that the OD-1775 is considered the "Cadillac of AKs" and noted that Occam Defense also makes accessories for various rifles, including a magwell for Ruger American Ranch rifles. The conversation concluded with a discussion about the evolution of military optics, particularly the adoption of EOTech holographic weapon sights and magnifiers during the Global War on Terror, with the professor having recently published an article about pairing the EOTech XPS2 with a 3x magnifier. Challenges in Mechanical Offset Calculations The discussion focused on the challenges of calculating mechanical offsets in shooting, particularly with high risers on optics. The professor expressed concerns about the trend of using excessive risers, noting that it complicates shooting and training. Jarrad explained that learning to calculate offsets takes time and practice, even in controlled conditions. The conversation also touched on the influence of social media on gear choices, with the Professor warning against buying unnecessary accessories before mastering current equipment. Good Samaritan Stabbing Case Update The group discussed a story about an American "Good Samaritan" stabbed in Germany after intervening when two men were harassing female passengers on a tram. The attacker was arrested but later released due to lack of sufficient evidence linking him to the stabbing, despite having previous charges. Jarrad shared details about his Occam Defense pistol, including its specifications and customization options, and mentioned that deposits are currently being accepted for the firearm. Gun Control's Futility and Absurdity The discussion focused on the futility of gun control measures, using examples from England, Australia, and other countries where disarmament has not reduced violent crime. The professor emphasized that gun control is ultimately about control and that left-wing ideologies, including communism and socialism, seek to disarm citizens to increase state power. The conversation concluded with a discussion of Australia's recent ban on machetes, highlighting the absurdity of such restrictions and the failure of gun control to address the root causes of crime.

Today I chat with Chris, a registered nurse and midwife who has been working with Australian Red Cross Lifeblood's milk program for eight years. Chris takes us through the fascinating world of donor breast milk - from the rigorous screening process for donors to how this precious resource supports the tiniest and most vulnerable babies in neonatal intensive care units across Australia. Whether you're curious about donating your excess breast milk or want to understand how donor milk could support your premature baby, this conversation is packed with essential information that every parent, midwife, and doula should know. Sponsor: I rarely talk about supplements on here - mostly because so many aren't backed by real evidence, and as someone who's always reading the fine print, I'm pretty selective about what I'll share with you. But every now and then, something stands out. Mother Dose by Land Lab is one of those rare finds that cuts through all the confusion. What has really impressed me is that it's been formulated by doctors, dietitians, and naturopaths - every single ingredient is there for a reason, backed by evidence and aligned with current prenatal guidelines. It includes the good stuff like choline for baby's brain development, folate in its most active form, and a clinical dosage of ginger that's actually proven to help with morning sickness. Over 50 health professionals have peer-reviewed the formulation, and they all said the same thing - it's an amazing blend that delivers the kind of care every woman deserves. And here's what I love even more - through their charity arm, they provide completely free prenatals to women with an Australian healthcare card. Whether you're pregnant, trying to conceive, Mother Dose takes the overwhelm out of choosing a prenatal. Check out Mother Dose at Land Lab - thoughtfully dosed, high quality prenatal care when you need it most.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Who is Lucy Connolly?  Is saying 'we love bacon' a crime in the UK?   Why was Iran expelled from Australia; What's going on in our Country of the week - Burkina Faso?  ; Why is the ocean warming?  Who is burning coal? Why is Norway opening new oil fields?   Why has John Fogerty released a new album?  Why have Cracker Barrel backed down on rebranding? Why made the first pillows?  Why does Lewis Goodall want to take all your money when you die? Why is it wrong to say 'boys and girls' in Australian schools?  Why are AI companions so destructive? Who will replace Dr Dobson?  Why is the teaching about 'biblical patriarchy' so potentially harmful?  Why is The Tree of Life such a great film? What does the Bible say?    with music from The Three Degrees;  The Beatles;  Florencia ADOUABOU; John Fogerty; Steeleye Span;  Tony, Toni Tone; and Steph Macleod

To celebrate the Australian release of WENT UP THE HILL, I talk with director Samuel Van Grinsven about 9 months of living with his second feature, what it taught him about the importance of casting for directing, and so much more.Synopsis: Abandoned as a child, Jack travels to remote New Zealand to attend the funeral of his estranged mother Elizabeth. There he meets her widow, Jill, who has questions of her own. Over the nights that follow, Elizabeth returns and possesses Jack and Jill, using each of their bodies to speak to the other. Jill faces Elizabeth's suicide, while Jack confronts his abandonment. As they learn she is trapped in limbo, Jack begins to doubt Elizabeth's reason for returning. Caught in a life-threatening nocturnal dance, Jack and Jill must find a way to let go of Elizabeth's hold before she pushes them to the edge.WENT UP THE HILL will be released in Australian Cinemas on September 11.

With Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre now flooded, we look back on the first time this happened in white history. Seventy-five years ago, Australia's driest and most inhospitable region became a huge inland sea — and was explored by Elliot Price, a salt-lake-of-the-earth sorta bloke tooling around in a home-made boat.

The digital world's most alarming vulnerabilities take center stage as we dive into how AI is compromising our justice systems and personal privacy. A senior Australian lawyer shocked the court by submitting AI-generated fake legal citations in a murder trial, with both defense and prosecution failing to verify their accuracy—revealing how our cognitive shortcuts create dangerous blindspots when working with artificial intelligence.Privacy breaches continue their relentless march as hundreds of thousands of conversations with Elon Musk's Grok AI chatbot were exposed through Google search results. These breaches, containing sensitive information from drug manufacturing instructions to medical advice, highlight our growing acceptance of data vulnerabilities as the new normal. The question looms: have we become so desensitized to privacy failures that we no longer demand accountability?Meanwhile, a major ransomware attack on kidney dialysis firm DaVita compromised nearly 2.7 million patients' personal and health information, including social security numbers and even images of personal checks. Most troubling was the months-long delay in disclosure, leaving affected individuals vulnerable without their knowledge.On a lighter note, we say goodbye to a technological relic as AOL's dial-up internet service finally powers down after running since 1989, and Nathan shares his ingenious Disney parks hack—booking rides that commonly break down to score unlimited Lightning Lane passes for both Disneyland and California Adventure in a single day.Join us as we examine these technological turning points while enjoying Remus Single Barrel Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

Is it legit? Or is this a strategic move to avoid fines while sitting out? KT brings the heat with his “warrior spirit” take: “Sign him and go beat the Eagles next week!”Then it's off to Hollywood, where Ed Kelce, father of Travis, is doing interviews like he's the new face of the Swift empire. From revealing engagement details to appearing on Australian morning shows, Ed's loose lips have the gang wondering: “Is Taylor Swift about to shut this man down?” KT hilariously warns, “Ed, brother, you're gonna get shot. You are not the mouthpiece of this organization.”

Australians in Iran have been urged to leave, after the federal government cut diplomatic ties with the country and expelled the Iranian ambassador from Australia. Many in the Australian-Iranian community have welcomed the decision, as well as the move by the Australian government to list the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organisation. While some Iranian community groups have been advocating for the move for years, some do fear what it might mean for family members back home.

If you like eco-therapy and/or Australian accents, you'll get both in this episode, as Carrie interviews John Seed, Deep Ecology father, founder/activist of the Rainforest Information Centre and co-author of the open-access book "Thinking Like a Mountain: Toward a Council of All Beings," and Dr. Tema Milstein (American turned Australian), Fulbright Scholar, and environmental communication Professor at Univ of New South Wales in Sydney. Both are co-facilitators of Deep Ecology workshops, that help reconnect us with each other and nature and heal our separation, like the compelling workshop I attended with them in Hobart Tasmania this June (you'll hear brief audio clips from that workshop of a kookaburra bird, Tema ringing bells, and my reflections after an emotional exercise). In this 56 minute interview, we describe some of my favorite workshop exercises like the council of all beings, breathing with trees, a solar system planetary walk, and the truth mandala (honouring our pain for the world). John also recites two poems by Robinson Jeffers. You can find out more about this eco-philosophy and everyday practice of Deep Ecology at John's websites below, and in the U.S. through "The Work That Reconnects" https://workthatreconnects.org/  https://www.facebook.com/johnseed.deepecology        https://www.instagram.com/johnseed_deepecology/    https://substack.com/@johnseed   Occasional blog posts at htpps://johnseed.net   Podcasts, essays, films etc https://rainforestinfo.org.au/johnseed.htm  "In Tune to Nature" is a weekly hour-long radio show airing Wednesdays at 6pm Eastern Time on 89.3FM-Atlanta radio and streaming worldwide on wrfg.org (Radio Free Georgia, a nonprofit indie station) hosted by me, Carrie Freeman, or Melody Paris.

Stewart Hamilton is 12 months into his role as CEO of Mercury NZ—and despite a record-dry year and a dip in earnings, he's forecasting a billion-dollar 2026. In this episode, he lays out what’s next for Mercury and its investors. How are Mercury and other big players teaming up to secure NZ’s troubled power supply—and are they forming an energy "cartel" in the eyes of the Commerce Commission? Would breaking up the big energy gentailers help make electricity affordable, or is the current model more efficient? Does the Government’s stake in Mercury create a conflict of interest? Hear about the "renaissance" of geothermal energy, Mercury’s focus on new generation projects, and the role New Zealand could play in training AI.
