Seven minutes and 40 seconds. That's all it took for a father and son to commit Australia's most devastating terror attack. It took place at the Jewish Chanukah Festival of lights celebration at Sydney's Bondi Beach 9 months ago. 55 people were shot, 15 were killed. Alongside the horror were extraordinary acts of courage with strangers helping strangers, people confronting the attackers and first responders running towards the danger. Journalist Sharri Markson was there in the aftermath. With Jewish community leader Alex Ryvchin, she reconstructs what happened before the attack and asks where Australia goes from here in their book, Bondi Terror: The Tragedy, the Courage, the Aftermath.

What happens when going back to work .... feels like a break?You drink a coffee while it's still hot. You finish a thought without being interrupted. People ask your opinion about something that has absolutely nothing to do with sleep schedules. You use parts of your brain you were starting to wonder still existed.And then comes the guilt. Shouldn't I want to be home?Why does this feel easier than being with my child?In Episode 5 of Why Did Nobody Tell Me This?, we're talking about the complicated, contradictory and deeply personal experience of returning to work after becoming a mother.there is no “right” way to feel about it. Some mothers grieve leaving their children.Some feel relieved. Some desperately want to return and then find the reality heartbreaking. Some don't want to return at all. And plenty of us feel all of those things at different times.We explore why work can become about much more than work after motherhood. It can be access to competence, identity, adult conversation, autonomy, purpose, regulation  and a version of ourselves that existed before somebody called us Mum.We also talk about the guilt women can carry for needing something outside motherhood to feel fulfilled, and the quiet belief that if we were good enough mothers, motherhood should somehow be enough.motherhood isn't asking us to choose between caring for our children and caring for ourselves, we're continually learning how both can coexist.

Historian Lord Andrew Roberts, biographer of Churchill and Napoleon, sits down with Geraldine Doogue fresh from visiting the site of the Bondi Beach massacre, a visit he links directly to his work chairing the 7 October Parliamentary Commission Report, produced by the UK-Israel All-Party Parliamentary Group. He argues antisemitism's fastest growth is coming from elite universities, traces a "bridgehead" from fringe to mainstream politics in the UK and Europe, and gives his read on Trump's Iran gamble, Taiwan, and whether the postwar order can hold. Guest: Lord Andrew RobertsGet in touch:We'd love to hear from you!

One of the biggest surprises of motherhood wasn't just how much my life changed… it was how much my friendships changed. How can millions of women be becoming mothers at exactly the same time… and yet so many describe feeling lonelier than they've ever felt?In the wise words of Kat in this episode "friendships are tough man"!!The friendship grief no one talks about.We explore the stories we tell ourselves When a friend doesn't check in…“They don't care.”“I've been forgotten.”“I'm not important anymore.”Is the village a myth?Motherhood can feel like entering a world where everyone has an opinion and the emotional impact of feeling watched.How fear of judgement keeps mothers performing instead of connecting.Motherhood changes what we need from each other. Before children, friendship might have been about:•fun•spontaneity•shared interests•adventureAfter children, it often becomes about:•flexibility•emotional safety•being remembered•practical support•someone who doesn't expect you to be “on”•someone who understands that cancelling isn't rejection It's not that mothers become “bad friends.” It's that the conditions for friendship change, and some relationships adapt while others don't.You can find more of us here: WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME THIS? | LIVE IN BONDIWe're taking the conversations from this series out of your headphones and into a room full of women.

Seit über 20 Jahren berichtet die freie Korrespondentin Barbara Barkhausen aus Sydney über Down Under, Neuseeland und die Pazifikregion. Während früher oft skurrile Tiergeschichten und die heimische Fauna im Vordergrund standen, rücken heute zunehmend geopolitische Spannungen und der wachsende Einfluss Chinas in den Fokus der internationalen Berichterstattung. Neben dem Wandel in der Weltpolitik prägen der spürbare Klimawandel und weiterhin der Terroranschlag am Bondi Beach 2025 die Arbeit vor Ort. Auch wegen der Erkenntnisse über Antisemitismus in Australien. Barkhausen gibt zudem persönliche Einblicke in den Alltag auf dem Kontinent, spricht über die bemerkenswerte Hilfsbereitschaft der Menschen und erläutert, warum sie der aktuelle Ausbruch der Vogelgrippe in der heimischen Tierwelt besonders bewegt.

Back in Australia! In this 5-Minute Friday, I’m checking in from Bondi Beach to clear up my recent travel whirlwind, AKA why I bounced between Sydney and LA, and preview the upcoming live show with Coach Bennett for the Nike After Dark Tour. Plus, we dive into the psychology of staying consistent on the road. After receiving a bunch of DMs about signing up for a local gym pass right after the marathon, I’m sharing the mindset behind it: where there is a "why," there is a way—and why motivation almost always follows action, not the other way around. Later, I answer a great listener question: Is running really for everyone, and should everyone run a marathon? I break down why anyone with a body who runs is a runner (pace and distance don't matter!), why you never need to chase someone else’s finish line, and the power of pursuing movement that genuinely feels good to you. Prompt of the Week: What goal is lighting you up right now? Whether it’s a big milestone, a habit change, or a short-term challenge, reach out and let me know on social.

Why Did Nobody Tell Me I'd Resent My Partner?Nobody is particularly surprised that having a baby is hard.But we're often completely unprepared for what becoming parents can do to our relationship.Suddenly the person you love is chewing too loudly. Sleeping too peacefully. Taking suspiciously long showers. And asking “What can I do to help?” somehow makes you want to launch something across the room.In Episode 3 of Why Did Nobody Tell Me This?, we're talking about one of the less Instagrammable parts of early parenthood: resenting your partner.Because resentment is rarely actually about the dishwasher. It can grow in the gap between what we're carrying and how supported we feel carrying it.We unpack the invisible and mental load of motherhood, becoming the default parent, mismatched responsibilities and what happens when one person's brain seemingly never gets to clock off.We talk about the transition from being a couple to becoming parents, and why sometimes it can feel like you've gone from being lovers and teammates to two exhausted colleagues running a small, chaotic logistics company together.Drawing on attachment and PACT principles, we explore the couple bubble, secure functioning and the idea of creating relationship agreements that become a north star when you inevitably find yourselves stuck in the same shitty pattern again. Because the goal isn't to never resent each other. It's to get curious about what the resentment is trying to tell you before it becomes a wall between you.Maybe underneath “Why do I have to do everything?” is: “I miss feeling like we're in this together.” Becoming parents often means learning how to find each other again in a new way. 

The San Francisco 49ers opened the 2026 season with a dominant win over the Los Angeles Rams in Australia — and some of the best news came from where nobody expected it. From Bondi Beach to the Sydney Opera House, David Lombardi breaks down the biggest takeaways from San Francisco's Week 1 victory. The rebuilt 49ers offensive line completely neutralized Myles Garrett and the Rams' pass rush, while Kyle Shanahan delivered a masterclass in motion, protection and play-calling. We also dive into Brock Purdy's growing connection with Demarcus Robinson, Mike Evans' impact on the offense, San Francisco's dominant ground game and why having one of the NFL's most veteran-heavy offenses could actually be a major schematic advantage. Plus, a closer look at the game-changing goal-line stand from rookie Gracen Halton and Fred Warner, the 49ers' championship formula, and how San Francisco is building an international fan base across Australia.

We knew motherhood would change our lives.We knew there would be less sleep, more responsibility and a tiny human who suddenly needed us for… well, everything.But nobody really prepared us for how much we would change too.In episode two of Why Did Nobody Tell Me This?, we're talking about what actually happens to us when we become mothers. To our brains, our bodies, our nervous systems, our identities, our values and the way we experience ourselves.We unpack the incredible changes happening in the maternal brain and why perhaps what we jokingly call “baby brain” is actually something far more sophisticated: a brain reorganising itself around the enormous task of keeping another human alive.Which might explain why you suddenly find yourself lying awake wondering…Is the baby breathing?What was that noise?Is the room too hot?Could they choke on that?We talk about hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts and that feeling of never really being able to switch off and explore how something designed to be incredibly adaptive can also become completely exhausting when our nervous system never gets the message that it's safe enough to stand down.But the changes aren't only neurological.We talk about birth, hormones, shifting values, the expectations we carry about the kind of mother we thought we'd be, and the strange experience of looking in the mirror and sometimes not quite recognising the woman looking back.Because motherhood doesn't just change what you do. It can change what matters to you. What scares you. What you need. How you see the world. And how you see yourself.And maybe one of the hardest parts is that all of this can be happening internally while, from the outside, you look like you're doing just fine.This episode is about putting language around that transformation.WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME THIS? | LIVE IN BONDIWe're taking the conversations from this series out of your headphones and into a room full of women.

Jeremy Zakis and John Batchelor explore how rising global temperatures are altering wildlife behaviors. In Australia, highly venomous eastern brown snakes are emerging from hibernation a full month early, including dangerous yellow-hued juveniles often mistaken for harmless whipsnakes. Meanwhile, local magpies are initiating territorial swooping attacks ahead of their typical breeding season. Along the coastlines, warmer Pacific waters have drawn great white sharks closer to beaches in Southern California and Queensland in terrifying, unprecedented numbers, though unseasonably warm weather still draws massive crowds to Bondi Beach.

Sen hörde vi folk som började skrika och det var då vi insåg att vi måste dra härifrån, säger Elin.Thea jobbar i närheten av bron där de två gärningsmännen öppnar eld.– Jag förstår att det är någon som skjuter utanför vår glasskiosk, säger hon.Jessica och hennes dotter tar skydd bakom en mur.

New South Wales is the first state to sign on - paying licensed owners from November to surrender their firearms, pulling a huge slice of the state's registered guns from circulation. But other states are dragging their feet, shooters say they're being unfairly singled out, and critics argue the very people we should fear won't hand anything over. So will it actually work - or is it a costly show of action?

On December 14th, 2025, a pair of gunmen killed 15 people attending a Hanukkah event on Sydney's Bondi Beach. For Jewish leaders like Jeremy Leibler (Zionist Federation of Australia), the killings were shocking--even as concerns around antisemitism continued to grow after October 7th. Will Australia's Royal Commission on Antisemitism be a meaningful step towards change? Jeremy speaks openly to Mijal and Noam about the commission, his legacy as the child of Holocaust survivors, and what is giving him hope.

When she woke, the pair embarked together on a project to share the wisdom, compassion and universality of several Jewish teachings.Although they were from very different worlds, when Nikki gained consciousness and met Rabbi Eli properly the two became fast friends.Then, they started writing a book together - based on the deep and expansive conversations they began having about hope, personal growth, spirituality and modern life.Rabbi Eli wanted Nikki's help to share seven ancient Jewish guidelines on living a good life, which he believed could be helpful to anyone, Jewish or not, who was looking for a way to live in a world that feels increasingly chaotic.While Nikki and Rabbi Eli didn't agree on everything all the time, they did both believe these teachings to be universal in their compassion and wisdom.The pair had just recorded their last conversation for the project in December last year, when Rabbi Eli was one of 15 people killed in the Bondi Beach terror attack.Nikki decided to honour his memory by finishing their book alone.Conversations with My Rabbi is published by HarperCollins.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris. Executive producer is Nicola Harrison.It explores religion, faith, modern living, disconnection, hope, radical empathy, togetherness, multiculturalism, learning from others, spiritual, family, near-death experiences, autoimmune disease, anti-Semitism, terrorism, grief, tragedy, suffering, meaning of life, spiritual teachings, friendship, prayer, meditation, Judaism, secularism.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts. There you'll find hundreds of the best thought-provoking interviews with authors, writers, artists, politicians, psychologists, musicians, and celebrities.

Late last year TRADITION published our largest issue ever—350+ page volume on the intellectual legacy of Rabbi Jonathan Sacks zt”l, released in cooperation with the Rabbi Sacks Legacy on the occasion of his 5th yahrzeit. Among that collection's many essays exploring R. Sacks' thought is a particularly pertinent one titled  “Inclusive Orthodoxy: Vision, Context and Connections” by Rabbi Dr. Benjamin J. Elton, who serves as the Chief Minister and Senior Rabbi of The Great Synagogue in Sydney, Australia. Inclusive Orthodox Judaism was an idea that Sacks championed during his tenure as Chief Rabbi of Britain, and Elton's essay lays out this conception of inclusion—its roots and sources, its possible flaws, alternative models and how they differ from Sacks' vision. In this conversation Elton recalls hearing someone say “We have no spare Jews, so if our common boat is too small we best better builder a bigger boat.” That was so on point that we chose it as the title for this episode, which also touches on issues of Jewish unity since October 7th, and—for R. Elton's community of Sydney—since the Bondi Beach massacre of last December.

If you're building a Shopify store, a DTC label, or an omnichannel ecommerce brand in Australia, this episode is your blueprint.From selling jewellery at Bondi markets to 13 stores and a booming ecommerce business, Arms of Eve co-founders Kerryn and Aaron Langer show how an Australian DTC brand scales retail without losing its ecommerce edge. Kerryn and Aaron Langer turned a market stall and a pile of leftover merino wool offcuts into Arms of Eve, now a nine-store (soon to be 13) Australian jewellery and lifestyle brand that's scaled past $20 million in revenue on the back of a genuinely direct-to-consumer ecommerce model. In this episode of eCommerce Australia, Ryan Martin sits down with the husband-and-wife founders to unpack how they walked away from the traditional wholesale/indent model, why The Iconic marketplace became their unlikely proving ground, and how COVID-era demand for jewellery (turns out that's the only accessory that shows up on a Zoom call) turned a side category into 80% of the business.For Shopify merchants and ecommerce operators thinking about opening a physical store, this conversation is a masterclass in getting the sequencing right. Aaron was convinced retail was dead, until their "little experiment" Bondi Beach store proved the opposite, creating a measurable halo effect that lifts online sales in a 10km radius around every new location. They talk candidly about the tech stack behind a fast-scaling DTC ecommerce brand (Starshipit for fulfilment, Okendo for reviews, Profit Peak for profitability data, and an in-house team now "vibe coding" their own dashboards), how they balance agency support with in-house performance marketing, and why their content strategy has swung from polished campaign shoots to raw, iPhone-shot, Tolstoy-powered video that converts better than the highly produced stuff ever did.There's also a genuinely useful nugget for anyone running ecommerce SEO or content strategy: Kerryn and Aaron explain how customer questions from their retail staff (about materials, tarnish, sizing, warranty) are becoming the seed for on-site content designed to capture organic search traffic, a simple but underused move for any Shopify or ecommerce brand trying to turn support questions into search-optimised product and FAQ pages that rank. Add in an unfiltered take on celebrity gifting (Margot Robbie, Hailey Bieber and Dua Lipa have all been photographed in Arms of Eve pieces, without a single paid placement), a calculated US relaunch planned for June 2027, and hard-won lessons on hiring, culture and staying "even" as leaders, and this is one of the most tactical founder conversations on ecommerce, retail expansion and DTC brand-building we've featured on the showAbout Arms of Eve:Arms of Eve is an Australian jewellery, accessories and resortwear brand founded by Kerryn and Aaron Langer. Starting out selling at local markets, the brand has grown into a multi-channel ecommerce and retail business with nine stores nationwide (growing to 13 by the end of 2026), a wholesale presence in boutiques across Australia, and a fast-growing direct-to-consumer online store.Website: https://armsofeve.com/Instagram: @armsofeveResources & tools mentioned:Starshipit: ecommerce shipping and fulfilment platformOkendo: customer reviews platformProfit Peak: ecommerce profitability analyticsTolstoy: shoppable, native video for ecommerce sitesThe Iconic: Australian fashion marketplaceFollow eCommerce Australia for more conversations with Australia's leading ecommerce and Shopify founders on growth, retail strategy, and building direct-to-consumer brands.

B”H What happens when a near-death experience becomes the beginning of a new life, a new relationship with G-d, and an extraordinary friendship? Today I'm in conversation with Nikki Goldstein, Co-Author of Conversations with My Rabbi: Timeless Teachings for a Fractured World. Nikki wrote this book with Rabbi Eli Schlanger obm who was murdered by jihadist terrorists in the horrific Bondi Beach terrorist attack. Nikki is a journalist, bestselling, award-winning author, and founder of Go2Guru. She began her career at Vogue, went on to hold senior editorial roles at ELLE, Marie Claire, and Financial Review Magazine, and has written seventeen books. But her newest book is unlike anything she has written before. At its heart, Conversations With My Rabbi explores the Seven Noahide Laws, the seven universal principles that the Torah gave to humanity, reframed through an honest and deeply personal conversation between a secular Jewish woman and a rabbi. Nikki and I talk about the miracle that brought Rabbi Eli into her life, how he helped her discover a direct relationship with G-d, and why these ancient principles are urgently relevant today. We talk about giving and how it ties to the Seven Noahide Laws. We also talk about grief, courage, Jewish identity, and what it means to live with more light, love, and purpose. You've never heard a conversation about the Seven Noahide Laws like this one. Here's the lovely Nikki Goldstein.

In the fifth and final episode of this special crossover between Stop the Killing and Watching Two Detectives, former head of the FBI's Active Shooter Program Katherine Schweit joins retired New South Wales detectives Scott Rogan and Peter Hogan one last time.The conversation begins with the information we still do not know about the Bondi Beach mass shooting — and why pending court proceedings, privacy laws and suppression orders can limit what is released to the public.Katherine, Scott and Peter examine the growing pressure for instant answers after major crimes, the spread of conspiracy theories and the new challenge facing investigators: artificial intelligence making it increasingly difficult to know whether video, images and evidence shared online are real.They also reflect on the extraordinary courage shown during the attack. Bondi lifesavers ran towards danger with first-aid kits while shots were still being fired. Ordinary people protected strangers, carried the injured and made decisions in seconds that may have saved lives.But what about those who freeze?Katherine explains why fight, flight and freeze are all normal human responses — and why nobody can truly know how they will react until they are placed in that situation. Her advice is clear: your first responsibility is to survive and return home to the people who love you.The episode then turns to the personal mission behind both podcasts.Katherine reflects on leaving the FBI but never leaving the work behind, and on how Stop the Killing restored some of her faith in humanity by creating a community of listeners who want answers, solutions and practical ways to make their communities safer.Scott and Peter explore the emotional toll of law enforcement, the coping mechanisms officers develop and why bringing humanity back into these conversations matters.This final episode also considers how victims should be spoken about. Behind every statistic is a person, a family and a life permanently changed.This is the final chapter of the five-part Stop the Killing x Watching Two Detectives crossover — a series about the Bondi Beach mass shooting, police response, misinformation, courage, survival and prevention.Because this is more than true crime.It is a mission.Over the next few weeks, both podcast feeds will continue the crossover.

In Part Four of this special crossover between Stop the Killing and Watching Two Detectives, former head of the FBI's Active Shooter Program Katherine Schweit continues her conversation with retired New South Wales detectives Scott Rogan and Peter Hogan. Together, they examine the police response to the Bondi Beach terror attack, the speed at which a mass shooting can unfold, and the impossible decisions officers must make in the first few minutes of an active-shooter incident. The conversation explores the difference between directed terrorism, inspired terrorism and independently motivated attackers, as well as the danger of extremist propaganda and livestreamed violence inspiring future attacks. Scott and Peter also address the misinformation that spread online in the immediate aftermath of Bondi. Images of wounded officers taking cover were used to accuse them of cowardice, while a photograph of a female officer directing civilians away from danger was falsely framed as surrender. Katherine explains why social-media snapshots cannot show what an officer was seeing, what intelligence they had or what tactical decisions they were being forced to make. The episode then turns to the extraordinary actions of Detective Senior Constable Cesar Barraza, the plain-clothes detective who confronted attackers armed with long guns from approximately 40 to 45 metres away. Katherine, Scott and Peter break down the difficulty of making accurate handgun shots over that distance, under extreme pressure, with civilians and fellow officers still in danger. This is not Hollywood. Real officers have limited ammunition. Real decisions are made in seconds. And real lives were saved. This episode is Part Four of a five-part Stop the Killing x Watching Two Detectives crossover examining the Bondi Beach mass shooting, the police response, the human cost and the lessons that may help prevent future violence. This is not about politics. It is about facts, response and prevention. Follow both Stop the Killing and Watching Two Detectives so you do not miss the final episode in the series.

Video link to this episode: https://youtu.be/gwCyNjr2vU0Today I am talking to Doran from the channel  @TheEasyWayDMS  about philosophical subjects. What is antisemitism? How does it form and change? What are the guises it comes in? In a world in which there's so much muddled dialogue about antisemitism, I thought it was important to have a nuanced, thoughtful conversation. I invite your comments and thoughts.For more on this subject, see these videos:Everyone is talking about Jews: https://youtu.be/A1aOTCsYQfMMy experience with antisemitism as a Jewish content creator: https://youtube.com/live/IZuSqgQGDBUAntisemitic attack in the UK with Izzy Posen https://youtu.be/IfWm5mlQRwgHe lived through the Bondi Beach attack: https://youtu.be/css7bPGITTEAlso, check out my conversation with Doran for his channel.https://youtu.be/utFUQCFnqdc?si=UEUJJjqYDNKhdoieBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-frieda-vizel-podcast--5824414/support.

For the Australian Jewish community, the date of December 14 carries as much gut-wrenching trauma as October 7 and September 11 does for Israelis and Americans, Daniel Hochberg, co-chair of Union for Progressive Judaism, told the Haaretz Podcast. On the six-month anniversary of the terrorist shooting attack on 1,000 Jews celebrating Hanukkah on Bondi Beach that killed 15 members of the tight-knit community, Hochberg and Haaretz editor Noa Levin reviewed the aftermath of the second most deadly attack in Australian history and its ongoing effect on the country’s politics and daily life for Australian Jews. “We don't feel safe as we did before,” Hochberg said, describing an increased “closing of spaces” to Jews who once felt part of progressive circles. “It has affected our sense of self-worth, our belief in our contribution to Australia is in question, and we are struggling with that. Our walls are being built higher and higher, so there's this feeling that the Jewish community, by almost default, is being isolated from the rest of Australian society.” On the podcast, Hochberg and Levin discussed the controversial formation and the ongoing testimony of the Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion, the national inquiry of the Bondi attacks which is focusing on growing antisemitic discourse in Australia, and the political impact of the attack inside and outside the Jewish community. The “totally unimaginable” violent attack and the Jewish community’s reaction, Levin noted, has sparked a conversation among young Jews regarding “who gets to speak for us at a national and international level, and what recommendations would all kinds of Jews like to see to ensure their safety in Australia,” while “touching on the intersection between criticism of Israel and antisemitism.” The Bondi attack, she said “has made the community incredibly sensitive to anything that looked, felt or smelt like something that could harm us, and that they have a right to do that, but I think it created something quite challenging in terms of discourse about Israel.” Read more: 'Reckoning Without Consequence Is Performance': Australian Jews Cautiously Welcome Antisemitism Inquiry Findings Australia's Historic National Inquiry Into Antisemitism, Explained How a Portrait of an Australian Jewish Leader Humanizes an Anguished Community The Australian Film About Jewish Fear and Unease Shot in Bondi Before the Massacre Despite a Moderate Downturn, Antisemitic Incidents in Australia Remained High for Second Year RunningSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In Part Three of this special Stop the Killing x Watching Two Detectives crossover, Katherine Schweit is joined by retired NSW detectives Scott Rogan and Peter Hogan to examine the Bondi Beach mass shooting. This episode looks at the six-minute attack, the police response, the tactical realities of the scene, and the extraordinary bravery of civilians who intervened while others were still under fire. This is not a political discussion about the Israel-Palestine conflict. It is a factual look at one specific mass shooting incident, the motives and climate around it, and the lessons that may help prevent future attacks.

In this episode of Resilience Unravelled, Dr Russell Thackeray speaks with Veronica Mason, a Sydney-based coach, speaker, and neurotech founder who lives near Bondi Beach and describes the area's intentional, health-conscious community. Mason shares her half-Australian, half-Mauritian upbringing and how feeling different helped her later embrace her identity, including as part of the LGBTQIA+ community, emphasising trusted relationships and advocacy through The Pinnacle Foundation supporting LGBTQIA+ students' education. She recounts a devastating accident at 23 that broke her back in six places, left her unsure if she would walk again, and ended her dream of becoming an international diplomat, requiring her to rebuild her identity and life through physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual recovery. She credits mindset, nutrition, exercise, and personal development resources (Sean Stephenson's The Model Health Project and The Magic of Thinking Big) for post-traumatic growth, graduating from law with honours, working in technology law, and shifting into coaching focused on nervous system regulation, subconscious blockers, and a “self MBA” approach.00:00 Welcome And Reset00:29 Life In Bondi02:18 Background And Identity04:13 Fitting In And Drive06:09 LGBTQ Resilience09:00 Back Injury Turning Point13:06 Mindset And Meaning14:38 Tools Books And Biohacks15:45 Coaching And Self MBA17:42 Connect And Final ThoughtYou can contact us at info@qedod.comResources can be found online or link to our website https://resilienceunravelled.com

What happens when three experienced investigators from opposite sides of the world sit down to examine how police respond to an active shooter?In this special crossover between Stop the Killing and Watching Two Detectives, former FBI Special Agent Katherine Schweit joins retired New South Wales detectives Peter Hogan and Scott Rogan for an expert examination of the lessons that have reshaped mass-shooting prevention, preparation and police response.Katherine was working on national security and counterterrorism cases when the murder of 20 children and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School changed the direction of her career. Following the shooting, she was appointed to the White House team tasked with developing a coordinated national response to mass shootings and became the architect of the FBI's Active Shooter Program.In Part One, Katherine explains how the devastating events at Sandy Hook helped accelerate a fundamental change in policing: moving away from the traditional strategy of “contain, negotiate and wait” towards the immediate deployment of officers to confront and stop an active threat.Peter and Scott reveal how those lessons travelled across the world and influenced Australian policing. They discuss the introduction of New South Wales Police's Active Armed Offender training, the impact of the 2014 Lindt Café siege and the confronting reality of preparing ordinary frontline officers to run towards attackers armed with military-style weapons.Together, they explore: Why active-shooter incidents can be over within minutes The extraordinary risks faced by the first officers entering the scene Why an active shooter and a mass shooting are not always the same thing Why workplaces—not schools—account for many active-shooter attacks in the United States The challenges of negotiating with attackers driven by extremist or ideological motives Why warning signs must be recognised and reported before violence begins How information shared by one student helped prevent a planned school shooting Why measuring the attacks that never happened is so importantKatherine also shares the remarkable story of the message that reminded her why Stop the Killing must continue: a school vice principal who credited the podcast with helping her team recognise the warning signs and prevent a planned attack.This conversation lays the groundwork for the next part of the series, when Katherine, Peter and Scott turn their attention to the December 14, 2025 Bondi Beach terrorist attack, examining the actions of the attackers, civilians and responding officers through their combined FBI and Australian policing experience. The attack targeted a Hanukkah celebration and killed 15 people. This is not simply a conversation about what happened. It is a conversation about what has been learned, what has changed—and what still needs to change to stop the next attack.Listen now to Part One of this special multi-part crossover.Stop the Killing on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/stop-the-killing/id1585146489Watching Two Detectives on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/watching-two-detectives/id1740792484Watching Two Detectives Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/wtdStop the Killing Patreon:GUNS, SUICIDE AND THE WOMEN WHO TALK TO THE DEAD — PART TWOIn Part Two of this special crossover between Stop the Killing and Watching Two Detectives, former FBI Special Agent Katherine Schweit continues her conversation with retired New South Wales detectives Peter Hogan and Scott Rogan.Before the team turns its attention to the Bondi Beach killings, they take a deeper look at the realities that sit behind conversations about firearms, mass violence and public safety.Katherine explains why she wrote Stop the Killing: A Simple Guide to the Second Amendment and why productive conversations about guns in the United States have become so difficult. With hundreds of millions of firearms already in circulation, she argues that prevention has to begin with the laws, risks and realities that currently exist—not the world people wish existed.The conversation also examines one of the most overlooked parts of America's firearms crisis: suicide. Katherine explains that the majority of firearm deaths in the United States are self-inflicted, raising difficult questions about access to weapons during moments of crisis and how firearms can turn a temporary period of distress into an irreversible outcome.Peter, Scott and Katherine discuss: Why active-shooter attacks and other forms of mass violence are not directly comparable How the weapon used can dramatically change the number of casualties The difference between bolt-action, semi-automatic and automatic firearms Why Australia's firearms restrictions mattered during the Bondi Beach attack How the elevated firing position at Bondi could have produced an even greater loss of life if different weapons had been available What the 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting demonstrates about firing speed, distance and crowd density Why statistics must be properly explained rather than used to support a predetermined argumentThe conversation then moves from mass-shooting prevention to another extraordinary investigation from Katherine's career.Katherine introduces her book Women Who Talk to the Dead, which follows Detroit detective Shannon Jones and FBI forensic specialist Leslie Larsen as they uncover a connection between missing-person investigations and unidentified murder victims buried in paupers' graves.What begins with one detective searching through decades-old paper files develops into the largest exhumation of murder victims ever undertaken by the FBI.Katherine reveals how a team of female detectives, prosecutors, forensic anthropologists and investigators volunteered their expertise and time to recover remains, obtain DNA and finally return names to people who had been unidentified for decades.Peter also reflects on his own experience working alongside a forensic anthropologist during the painstaking exhumation of a murder victim—and why a line in a news report stating that investigators “exhumed the body and obtained DNA” can never capture the time, care and expertise that work truly requires.This episode is about the human realities hidden behind the statistics: the people lost to firearms, the investigators who carry the responsibility of finding answers and the extraordinary work required to give unidentified victims their names back.And after two episodes of expert discussion, the stage is now set.In Part Three, Katherine Schweit, Peter Hogan and Scott Rogan turn their combined FBI and New South Wales policing experience towards the Bondi Beach killings and examine the events of that tragic day.Stop the Killing on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/stop-the-killing/id1585146489Watching Two Detectives on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/watching-two-detectives/id1740792484Watching Two Detectives Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/wtdStop the Killing Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/stopthekillingListening on the Stop the Killing feed?

Jeremy Zakis discusses the onset of a "super El Niño" weather pattern impacting both the United States and Australia. While currently experiencing unusually wet and cold conditions in New South Wales, Australia is preparing for catastrophic drought and bushfires by December. The discussion highlights differences in fire management between California's forced evacuations and Australia's choice-based approach, emphasizing the danger of combustible eucalyptus trees near homes. Additionally, the weather has generated massive surf swells at Bondi Beach and unexpected early snowfall in the Southern Highlands and Victoria, signaling a potentially intense winter season ahead.
