What we're talking about: Should you take a gap year after Year 12? It's a big decision, and in this episode, I break down the benefits and drawbacks of taking a year off before further study. I also share practical advice on how to keep your options open, even if you're unsure about your next steps. 1:09 Common concerns about taking a gap year I've had a lot of conversations with parents recently about whether a gap year is the right choice for their child. Many students don't know whether they should still apply for courses through VTAC, or if taking a gap year will impact their future plans. In this episode, I share my thoughts on how to approach this decision. 3:28 The benefits of taking a gap year There are plenty of good reasons to take a gap year, including: Taking a break – After 13 years of school, it makes sense to want some time off before starting further study. Travel opportunities – Exploring new places and cultures, or working overseas through programs like Camp America. Earning money – Getting a full-time job to save for university, travel, or other goals. Career exploration – Using the year to try jobs in industries you're interested in, so you get a feel for what you might want to study. 5:39 The drawbacks of taking a gap year Some students worry that if they take a gap year, they'll never go back to study. While that's not always true, there are some things to consider: Losing the study habits you've built over the years. Feeling like you're behind your friends who go straight to university. Starting uni with students who are younger and still in a “VCE mindset.” 9:54 How to keep your options open Even if you're planning to take a gap year, I strongly recommend applying for VTAC courses now and securing a spot. Most courses allow deferral, so you can take your gap year with peace of mind, knowing you have a place waiting for you. It's also much easier to do this while you still have access to school resources like career counselors and scholarship applications. 13:23 Final advice: Plan now, decide later There's no right or wrong answer when it comes to taking a gap year—it's a personal choice. But having a plan in place (even if you're unsure) will make your gap year experience smoother and more enjoyable. Links mentioned: Work with me: https://www.roadmapeducation.com/services

Professor Jason Ralph joins the Hayseed Scholar podcast. Brent has known Jason's work for two decades, but only fairly recently met him in person. Jason grew up in the village of Norton Canes in South Staffordshire near the West Midlands of England.  His father had worked in the coal mines years prior, but then started a business where all of Jason's family would eventually work. The original plan was to get a teaching degree focused in physical education, but that didn't quite work out. Jason's intellectual turn happened in a number of locations - working back at his father's business during breaks while reading the newspapers, in the US during a stint at 'Camp America', which put him close to UMass-Amherst, and then in Wales at Aberystwyth, where he would get his Bachelor's and then Master's, concluding with a PhD in War Studies at King's College London. But it was equal parts critical theory and security, as well as strategic studies and intelligence, that inspired Jason's interests.  Jason's earlier work was on American Exceptionalism and the ICC, including a Review of International Studies article that Brent would read and begin to know Jason's research through. Jason talks about breaking into academia through positions at Exeter, and then Leeds, where he remains to this day. He reflects on his approach to writing, what he does to unwind, how playing the guitar helps with both, and more!

#537 New York Ticks and Cockroaches - He loved it so much last week that he came back a week later to do it again. A second interview with the very relaxed Peter Serafinowicz. This time they talk about his film and TV work in America, how getting the dream job of playing The Tick turned into a filming nightmare, general indifference to appearing in the greatest ever episode of Rick and Morty, screwing up your lines in front of of Keanu Reeves' beautiful face and working with Michael Caine and wondering if you can talk about the impression you do of him. Plus why the Beatles song A Day in the Life needed to be much longer (listen here https://soundcloud.com/bren-murphy/a-full-day-in-the-life-by-peter-serafinowicz), why some accents are difficult even for Peter (not for Richard though) and both men's not fully positive experiences of Camp America.Buy Peter's Brian Butterfield book here - https://brianbutterfield.limitedrun.com/products/807187-theres-no-business-like-businessSee a live recording of RHLSTP - https://richardherring.com/rhlstpSUPPORT THE SHOW!Watch our TWITCH CHANNELSee extra content at our WEBSITE Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/rhlstp.

In this episode of Faith for Normal People, Lee Camp joins Pete and Jared to discuss the relationship between Christianity and politics, challenging the idea that Christianity is apolitical by arguing that Christian faith is inherently political in addressing fundamental human concerns like reconciliation, justice, and community. He also addresses the problematic notion of America as a "Christian nation" and calls for a more thoughtful, less partisan Christian engagement in politics.

Kerry September is a British Hair Stylist & Make-up Artist who has worked in theater, film, TV, music, fashion and beyond in her 30-year career. Kerry was born in 1971 in Bridgend, Wales. the oldest of five children; she has three sisters and a brother. Her father, Gideon September, emigrated to the UK from South Africa and worked as a service engineer. Her mother, Christine Blackwell was a housewife who, after raising her children, went back to school to become a psychotherapist. Most of Kerry's family is in psychology and she says her work too is like being a therapist listening to her client's share their life stories. When Kerry was two years old, her family moved to Twickenham and she went to Chase Bridge Primary School before being sent to Rosebery School, Epsom, an all-girls school for which she quickly developed a dislike. Her parents discovered she had a hearing deficit when she was three years old but Kerry rebelled against hearing aids which she felt put her at a disadvantage thus making school more challenging. Her mother told her she could do anything she wanted to so Kerry decided to pursue her studies at Epsom Art College, followed by two years at the London College of Fashion. As a teenager, Kerry was absorbed in American TV culture and so her parents agreed to let her attend Camp America in Pennsylvania. After 10 week's work, for which she was paid $150, Kerry and her new friends spent four months traveling until her cash ran out and she returned to the UK. She found her first real job in the wig department in West End theater, which proved the foundation to her career. She did make-up for music videos such as Prodigy ‘Smack My Bitch Up', Smashing Pumpkins 'Everlasting Gaze' and Manic Street Preachers ‘Why So Sad'. Kerry has done make-up for a variety of photographers, actors, artists, politicians and celebrities. Nowadays she is also focusing on her health and fitness while studying quantum biology and looking forward to her next adventure.

In today's show we explore Vietnam and the high hopes of a young traveller, singer and songwriter, who through his love of adventure and music found himself falling in love with Vietnam and its people.Our guest Luke Webster talks about his travels and how he found himself enjoying a more relaxed pace, with happy smiling people and welcoming feelings of family and home.He describes the sensory overload that hit him when he first arrived, and the beauty and serendipitous happenings that steered him to create the kind of music he had been wanting to make all his life.Luke has written and recorded an album of his original music in Hoi An, Vietnam. He studied English Literature at Uni, then went on to do 3 Camp America seasons and two Ski seasons in France.At the age of 23 he took a leap of faith and flew to Vietnam on a one-way ticket; met a musician from Israel and formed a band in Hoi An called The Langurs. Details of his Album soon to be released on Spotify will be provided below. He gigged continuously throughout the COVID years, also teaching English, guitar, piano, singing, Ukelele, and drums to expats in Hoi An.After exploring the north, Hanoi and Cat Ba, he describes falling in love all over again in Hoi An. The vibe of this old town (or country town as he calls it) including the beach area of An Bang began to open doors to allow him to perform regularly and craft his own style and repertoire of music to an ever increasing local following.Luke speaks to all of us who recognise the value of travel and especially to places where the culture is foreign to your own. He talks about how traveling and working things out as you go develops you as a person, and how it can broaden the mind to think outside the box.  I am sure you will resonate with Luke's openness and honesty. His experiences and tales of relationships with locals and learning about Vietnam are generous and heart warming.Make sure to look out for his album to be released in April 2023.

Teri M Brown always wanted to be a writer, but it wasn't until the year 2000 that she started writing non-fiction for small businesses, and it took until 2017 for Teri to leave an unhappy marriage, turn 50 and fulfill her dream of writing a novel.The most important aspect of writing that first novel was finding the confidence to believe she was capable of it. Non-fiction, she says, is something practical and unemotional. But fiction comes from somewhere inside, and that takes a lot more courage.If someone doesn't like your book, it's like they're saying they don't like you and we talk about how to handle that rejection and not take it personally.A big turning point for Teri was when she attended a writing retreat because not only did she have the time and space to write, but the community was so supportive and, as she says, ”you feed off each other.”The inspiration behind her debut novel.Sunflowers Beneath The Snow was a young Ukrainian student who joined Camp America back in 2014.When it was time for her to return to the Ukraine, war had broken out and she couldn't get back to her home country.Nor could she remain in America because she didn't have a greencard. She was told she'd be taken to a refugee camp in Poland but she didn't want to do that because it wasn't her home, she didn't speak Polish and she didn't know anybody there. Instead, she disappeared!She later obtained the legal right to remain and two years later she got back in touch with Teri.She told Teri a story about what had happened to her in New York, and it was that story that planted the seed for Sunflowers Beneath The Snow.I was desperate to know what the story was, but the whole novel leads up to that one moment, and Teri, understandably, didn't want to spoil the ending!We go on to talk about the research involved in writing about a country and culture you know nothing about. Sunflowers Beneath The Snow is a historical novel so Teri started with a broad overview of Ukraine's history before narrowing down her research to the year about which she was writing.By researching only what she needed, it meant she could weave fact into fiction in an organic way, and it didn't feel forced.Even though she first had the idea for the story in 2016, the book wasn't published until 2021 and Teri M Brown takes me through her writing process and how she subsequently found her publisher, Atmosphere Press.We finish our conversation with Teri telling me about her new novel, which is set in World War Two. It's loosely based on her grandfather's experiences fighting in Germany and is particularly poignant because her Grandfather is of German heritage and the book raises the question of what if my enemy is also my family?A tear jerker in the making!What will you get from this episode? You'll learn a little bit about Ukrainian history. You'll see it takes time to write a book you actually want to publish, and you'll also learn that you have publishing options. The important thing is to enter a contract knowing what your rights are.  LInks:Sunflowers Beneath The Snow, Teri M BrownTeBook Editing Blueprint A Step-By-Step Plan To Making Your Novels Publishable Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!

It's episode 69. Its Christmas. What are the chances? In this special episode, we have a live reaction as I watch my Camp America application video and cringe at its […]

Buna Ziua, Romania! Welcome to Norm Nathan’s Vault of Silliness! I would also like to note that we have surpassed 70 subscribers on YouTube. Let’s keep it going and thank you just so darn much. A cassette from October 9th, 1993 jumped off the shelves for our episode today which I have titled: Storytime with Uncle Norm as Norm adds some great details to some of our birthdays. However, before we get to the DBG we have a taste of the 2am hour to entertain us. It begins with a very foggy traffic report from Jack Harte and some Accuweather from Dave Ryan. We hear from Don who’s 300 miles north of Toronto in Sudbury Ontario, Canada where it’s 28 degrees and snowing. The caller and Norm get a bit political. Amazingly, it’s a bit telling of the times we are living in now. Jane on a car phone who’s very thankful for Norm’s show on her drive home from work And then we have Allison in Saugus who has some sage advice on how to treat a genius. This one is another shining example of Norm’s wit. And now it’s DBG time! It starts with some player introductions: Rosemarie from Wellesley The debut performance of Sid Whittaker! But the tape runs out and switches sides. When it starts again, we hear Norm chortling about something. Probably about the revolving door of producers he’s had. Hearing is laugh just makes me smile. We continue with player intros: I’m in studio with Mike Epstein And Jack Harte (who has an astounding game) Bdays are a mixed bag from the upcoming week: 10/9 Jackson Browne 10/12 Susan Anton Chris Wallace 10/13 Marie Osmond Margaret Thatcher Art Garfunkel 10/14 Everett Coop Roger Moore Norm talks about taking piano lessons again, the Ol’ Drunken Pianist…On Tour Now. Stick around for those dates! And boy do we get to hear some Commercials!

Australia’s champion Ninja Warrior Charlie Robbins chatted the guys this morning and said he nearly couldn’t get through because his phone line was blowing up with messages of congrats to the ginger ninja! He gave the guys an insight in to his training routine and how grandma still makes him packed lunches – cute!A man in Florida was left angry after another man thought it would be okay to charge his electric car on the front lawn without even asking. The guys heard from callers who had stories about people that never even asked. Dean went away to Camp America and had to buy a whole new wardrobe by the time he returned, Kelly’s house is like a walk-in super market for her neighbour and Barry’s neighbours were super cheeky using his water!And Nat hadn’t spoken to her parents since she returned home from Morocco, she had only been talking to them for a few minutes when her brother called and they hung up! Nat quickly learnt she is no longer the favourite. Apparently, Brock has felt the same after he got a magazine for his birthday while his wife received something a bit more special and Lisa was sent to a public school while her siblings were sent somewhere way better.

I had the pleasure of having a conversation with a young Kiwi dude currently residing in L.A. His name is Stephen McDowall, or better known on social media as “The Buzzy Kiwi”. Stephen's plan for his life hit a bump a couple of years back. Just out of uni and working as a self-employed personal trainer an old rugby injury came back to haunt him. Undergoing what he thought was a routine surgery, he woke up to the news that the cartilage in his hip had started dying and he was experiencing arthritic changes. Instead of being back at work in 3 days, he couldn't walk for 8 weeks, and couldn't exercise for 8 months. I got to talk with him on the podcast about what happened and then his re-evaluation of what was important to the way he lived his life. Here are a couple of my take away points from the conversation with Stephen. “My whole life was sports, when that was taken from me I needed a new passion” Stephen's life had revolved around multiple sports, but as with many young Kiwi males the main one being rugby. He had chosen to pursue a career in the fitness industry on top of that. Nearly everything he did revolved around sport or exercise. If that isn't a passion I'm not sure what is. I've been injured often enough to know the short term feeling of loss associated with not being able to move. Thankfully all my injuries are ones that I've recovered from, they've slowed me short term but haven't stopped me being able to do anything in the long run. To have your movement taken from you, coupled with losing your main drive at the same time is massive. It speaks to the phenomenal resilience Stephen has that he was able to take that on board so quickly. I believe that part of the reason he was successful in overcoming this sense of loss was that he developed something else he was interested in very quickly. Stephen knew that he was interested in travelling from the small amounts he had done prior to his surgery. Planning and eventually participating in this gave him a sense of purpose to get out of bed in the morning. Something I can attest to that is vitally important as you're rehabbing from an injury. He could have chosen to sit in that sense of loss, but that likely wouldn't have led to us having our conversation, or him touching other peoples' lives. Stephen's ability to quickly recognise how important this sense of purpose was in his life is impressive, but his strategic approach to finding a new one is probably even more so. After surgery he identified other things in life outside of sport and exercise that he was interested in, then set about researching how he could participate. He had to take into account his financial situation as well as his likely physical abilities when figuring out how he could get involved. Camp America was a perfect first step and things have ballooned from there. As much as Stephen says “I make this up as I go”, taking the time to understand what excites him and following what he is curious about has led him down this path. “Change it from being loss to being a lesson of some sort” Stephen was able to reframe this experience from being one where he “lost” (massive) parts of himself; movement, career, and even part of his identity, to an opportunity to re-group and learn. This is likely another reason for his success. Having an experience is just that, an experience. Stephen was able to view this experience as an opportunity to re-shape his life rather than losing the things that mattered to him. Exploring the idea of travel has led to some incredible experiences in fantastic places, as well as the opportunity to have it sustain him. Stephen likely wouldn't have been able to have these experiences without the injury and the results from it. If it hadn't happened he may well be still working as a personal trainer in Dunedin. I don't want to put words in his mouth but I'd be happy to bet that he would much prefer the path his life has taken. “It's not all rainbows and fairies — you go through some very uncomfortable times, but it's worth it for those things that you experience” This may be my favourite line from our whole chat, I love Stephen's viewpoint here. Uncomfortable experiences abound when we start to test ourselves and push away from what we know, what is safe. Situations come up that we have no experience dealing with, that can threaten us physically but usually much more likely threaten us mentally. When unfamiliar situations come up for me I often find myself pulling back into myself, trying to revert back to what feels “safe” and shying away from what is uncomfortable even though I'm excited by what lies on the other side of it. Stephen shared his method of dealing with this on the podcast. He stops and puts his back to the wall so he feels safe, then sits and asks himself questions until he figures out what he is going to do, how he is going to get through, or around, the uncomfortable. Coming to a safe place is a great way to start, it allows us to slow things down, our breathing and more importantly our thought processes, often these are connected. Getting to a safe place may not require finding a physically safe place, instead it could be a step back from a turbulent mental situation, having a little distance between your thoughts and the situation. Not getting to this safe place first can lead to mistakes. When I'm flustered I tend to speed up. The more I speed up the more mistakes I make. The more mistakes I make the more flustered I become. It turns into a downward spiral. After getting safe I can slow down and ask myself better questions and take time with the answers to give myself the best options for dealing with the uncomfortable. Sometimes life doesn't give you the time to get yourself “safe” before it requires a decision, but more often than not it will. If I can train myself to get to get into this “safe” space when there is no time pressure I'm more likely to be able to get there when the pressure is on, and my decisions are more likely to be the ones I'm proud of when I look back. After all “we don't rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training” — Archilochus. Stephen has made this method work for him, and as far as I can see, it seems to serve him well The final thought I want to leave you with, is that it “isn't all rainbows and fairies”. But if you can navigate your way through the uncomfortable you may see a few on your journey and to me that is well worth the tip.

For Magnus Walker an obsession with the Porsche 911 started back in 1977 at the Earl’s Court Motor Show. Since, he’s become the world’s most prolific collector, film location scout and clothes designer with his flowing dreadlocks, beanie hat and powerful beard. Now based in Los Angeles, Walker was born in Yorkshire. Drawn to an American Dream of sorts he leapt at the opportunity to work at Camp America outside Detroit in 1986. He quickly abandoned Detroit for the west coast, making his way to LA, looking for work. It was there that his career took an unexpected turn. After being able to make a quick profit selling a pair of PVC trousers to a punk rocker, who in turn asked for eight more pairs, he knew America could deliver on it’s promise of prosperity in the accidental career choice of clothes design. By the 90s Walker had his own brand, Serious Clothing, championed by the likes of Madonna and Alice Cooper. His other business venture, a film location company, started in a similar way in 2011. After a business called looking to film a music video at his Serious Clothing Warehouse. And where do the Porsches come into this? Well, one never forgets their first love and for Walker, his first love was smell of gasoline and the smooth shaped bodywork of the 911. With business running solidly he could concentrate on his dream, the ultimate Porsche 911 collection. Since then, opportunity has come knocking once again. A documentary, screen-time on Jay Leno’s Garage show and the boyhood dream of a visit to Porsche in Stuttgart fulfilled. Magnus Walker’s story is the real story of finding opportunity and running with it. Watch it, this Sunday, on London Real.
