Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice about menopause and HRT? You're not alone, and you're not imagining it.In this eye-opening conversation, journalist and author Fiona Clark (MenoWars: Why Menopause's Moment Has Gone Horribly Wrong) joins me to unpack why the menopause conversation has become so polarizing. What started as a grassroots movement of women advocating for better care has evolved into a confusing battlefield of conflicting claims, FOMO-inducing headlines, and monetized advice that leaves women more overwhelmed than empowered.Fiona brings her unique background, which includes a degree in anatomy and physiology, decades as a journalist, and her own experience navigating menopause to help us understand how we got here. We explore the "menopause wars," from the rise of influential voices making claims that science doesn't always support, to the gatekeeping accusations that emerge when medical professionals push back, to the dangerous erosion of trust in evidence-based medicine.In this episode, we talk about:How the menopause advocacy movement transformed from collegial to combativeWhy testosterone has become the latest battleground (and what happened when Fiona stopped taking it)The FOMO epidemic: dementia, heart disease, and what the research actually showsWhy "gatekeeping" accusations undermine the scientific processThe commercialization of menopause and how confusion gets monetizedWhat HRT can (and can't) do, and why cutting out the noise matters more than anythingWhy women deserve to make informed decisions about their bodies without everyone else's opinionsFiona's message is clear: it's not about being pro- or anti-HRT. It's about cutting through the noise, understanding what science actually supports, and reclaiming your right to make informed decisions about your own body without FOMO, fear, or unsolicited opinions.If you've felt confused, frustrated, or exhausted by the menopause information overload, this conversation will help you find your footing.About Fiona: Fiona is an award winning investigative journalist who spent the first 20 years of her career in the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

How do you rebuild an aviation system from the ground up after a devastating war? Ukrainian aviation leaders, alongside their North American and European partners, face this monumental challenge.

Editor-in-Chief Joe Petrie sits down with Tonci Peovic, the expert who led Dubrovnik Airport's revival after the Balkans War. Peovic shares firsthand insights into the obstacles Ukrainian airport officials will encounter on the ground, the dangers of restarting operations in a war-torn environment, and the critical role Western leaders can play in supporting recovery efforts. This episode offers powerful lessons in resilience, leadership, and international collaboration for aviation professionals. Whether you're an airport leader, consultant, or aviation enthusiast, this conversation is essential for understanding the future of Ukrainian airports and global aviation recovery efforts.

In March 1992, Zlata Filipović was an 11-year-old girl growing up in Sarajevo, Bosnia in a normal, middle-class family who kept a diary about all the everyday things a child of her age does: going to school, doing music lessons, visiting her grandparents. Just one month later, Zlata's diary had begun to transform into an incredibly vivid description of a city under siege as the Balkans War reached her hometown. Towards the end of 1993, that diary became she and her family's way out of the city: picked up by a French publisher, it became an international bestseller in the midst of the war and Zlata, just 13 years old, became a media phenomenon. She joined Richie in the Second Captains studios earlier this week and described the daily reality of life in a war-torn city, how overwhelming at times the coverage of the ongoing atrocities in Ukraine and Gaza have been, and how she and her family eventually came to resettle in Dublin in the nineties. Zlata's story is truly incredible and feels particularly timely - we'd like to thank her for being so open and willing to share it. Episode is brought to you by NOW and is a Second Captains production. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sarah Abrevaya Stein’s rich new book, Extraterritorial Dreams: European Citizenship, Sephardi Jews, and the Ottoman Twentieth Century (University of Chicago Press, 2016) takes readers on a global journey in search of late 19th and early 20th century Sephardi Jews with roots in the Ottoman Empire who sought citizenship within European nations for a variety of reasons, including socio-economic mobility and political refuge. While analyzing complex legal systems and the ways in which different nations viewed their extraterritorial subjects, Abrevaya Stein never loses site of the individual experiences of Jewish men and women. Indeed, by offering a series of case studies that range from Salonica during the Balkans War to 1930s Shanghai and Baghdad, she demonstrates how questions over citizenship and status were often determined by local politics and personalities and could lead to vastly different fates for these Jewish “proteges.” Learn more about your ad choices.

#123 starts out with a short story about the refit on Isbjorn. Andy reflects on the past three weeks and what he, Mia and a whole host of friends, old and new accomplished on the boat. There’s still lots to do, but boy have we come a long way! The guest this week is Nuno Antunes. Nuno’s from Portugal, but has lived in Sweden for over 20 years and has a fascinating personal story, including growing up in rural Portugal, becoming a Navy diver and being involed in the Balkans War. All the while, Nuno had a dream to sail over the horizon. His relentless pursuit of that dream and his unconventional means of making it come true are precisely why I wanted to have him on the show. This episode is one for the dreamers out there, a real-life example of one family who made their dreams come true and a practical lesson in how to actually do it. You can follow Nuno and Jenny’s adventures on dreamalive.se, where he’ll be keeping an ongoing blog of their trip. Nuno is also the Swedish distributor for the Air Head composting marine toilet (why he was at the show), so if you’re in Sweden and you’re interested in one, visit his sit at airheadtoilet.se.

In part one of our exclusive interview with Goran Ivanisevic, the Croatian talks about playing for his country while it was being torn apart by the Balkans War, how the weight of his wooden racquet created his now famous service action, and how he was unhappy for three years following his 1998 Wimbledon final defeat. Elsewhere, David and Catherine chat about the Shanghai Masters 1000 event, and David tries to get Catherine to reveal once and for all who she was supporting in that Ivanisevic vs. Pat Rafter Wimbledon final.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
