In this episode of the Cyber Uncut podcast, Daniel Croft and David Hollingworth talk about NSWEduChat, a virtual Charlie Kirk, the impact of a cyber incident disrupting airports across Europe, and how Australian not-for-profits are getting a new tool to face a rising tide of ransomware attacks. Croft and Hollingworth open proceedings with Instagram's new AI age assurance checks then talk about the new AI tool being rolled out to NSW public school students and how promising it looks. The pair also discuss the ramifications of creating a deepfake of Charlie Kirk to address packed crowds at US megachurches in the wake of his murder and about a data leak on a website set up by American conservatives to out anyone speaking ill of Kirk. They also share an update on the Jaguar Land Rover hack which is still disrupting production in the UK and walk through a ransomware attack that has crippled a string of major European airports. Finally, Hollingworth and Croft find some good news, with NSW enacting legislation to tackle harmful deepfakes and a service offering cyber attack simulations to the not-for-profit sector, which has experienced a surge in malicious activity so far this year.

This week delivered royal chaos on an epic scale! Seven major charities dumped Sarah Ferguson faster than a hot potato after explosive emails revealed she called Jeffrey Epstein a "supreme friend" just weeks after publicly vowing to cut ties forever. But that wasn't the worst of it - new allegations emerged about Prince Andrew's involvement in a Thai orgy with over 40 women, described by witnesses as "industrial scale" encounters funded by taxpayers! Meanwhile, Prince Harry quietly registered six-year-old Archie for Eton College in a stunning move that could see the Sussex and Cambridge cousins educated together - only to have his spokesperson deny everything by Friday! Palace insiders are still furious over Harry's Guardian interview, with sources saying "his mouth is his biggest problem." Plus: William and Charles held crisis talks at Balmoral about keeping the monarchy united, Kate delivered a tear-jerking tribute to the Southport victims, Princess Anne gave underwire bra advice at a lingerie factory, and Meghan got publicly dumped by a reality TV star after snubbing her with gift boxes!

Seven charities have dropped the Sarah Ferguson as a patron, after an email from 2011 emerged in which she called sex offender Jeffrey Epstein her 'supreme friend'. Julia's House, a children's hospice, was the first to remove Duchess of York - saying it was 'inappropriate' for her to continue in the role. A raft of others lined up behind them, and the British Heart Foundation said she would no longer be its ambassador. UK correspondent Enda Brady says it's likely more charities will follow suit.

Multiple charities have cut ties with the Duchess of York, following the emergence an email she sent to the convicted sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein, in which she called him her "supreme friend".

In this episode of the How to Lead – 2025 Edition series, Julia Middleton revisits a Women Emerging favourite: Julia Cleverdon's framework of task, team, and individual. Back by popular demand after her earlier episodes (95 and 96), Julia Cleverdon returns to answer listener questions on how leaders can hold these three circles in balance. She shares insights on building strong teams without letting prima donnas dominate, sustaining energy when cynicism creeps in, and the challenges of leading virtual teams. She also reflects on when it's right to focus heavily on a task, and when the priority must shift to nurturing individuals or repairing culture. The conversation makes clear that the art of leading isn't about perfect equilibrium, but about knowing when to lean into one circle more than the others without ever letting any of them drop. Listen to this episode to explore how task, team, and individual interact in real-world leadership and why the most effective leaders never lose sight of all three. About the guest: Dame Julia Cleverdon is Chair of The National Lottery Community Fund. She was previously Chief Executive of Business in the Community from 1991 to 2007 and later Special Adviser to The Prince's Charities.

Welcome to the Fundraising Everywhere Podcast, today, we've got something a little bit different for you. To celebrate our upcoming recruitment and careers conference coming up on Thursday 20th November, we've decided to hand the mic over to our guest host Rory White in this special series of episodes called 'It Started On The Street'. Rory will be chatting to some brilliant leaders in the charity sector and beyond about their journeys since they started their careers as dialogue fundraisers. "Jen Suter has a wealth of experience in face-to-face fundraising. She spent years working with Real and then a long stint at Urban Leaf, and she's always been deeply passionate about the face-to-face market and the people in it. She's now Head of Direct Engagement at Save the Children, where she works closely with a variety of agency partners, and she's also recently taken on a role as Head of Charities at a new startup called Oddogo — all at the same time. Jen is a truly positive, inspiring person to talk to, and she's a real advocate for everything face-to-face fundraising stands for. I really enjoyed this conversation, and I think you will too" You can learn more about our upcoming Fundraising Recruitment and Careers Conference happening on Thursday 20th November here If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to hit follow and enable notifications so you'll get notified to be first to hear of future podcast episodes.

The Refugee Council says fewer asylum appeals are needed, but there must be 'legal' and 'judicial' oversight of decisions. Also: questions are raised about new criminal sentencing guidelines which could prevent visits to pubs or football matches. And: a lucky escape for those on board a hot air balloon which landed on a street in Bedford.

Ukraine and Gaza are the two hot button spots of today's times, and they both pit America and some European leaders against each other. Will these cross-purposes lead America into war with Europe? An almost incomprehensible idea to contemplate, and that's why your host, Carole Lieberman, M.D., The Terrorist Therapist®, discusses it on today's podcast. The evidence of this is clear, with European leaders inviting themselves to the White House to “support” Zelensky in his meeting with President Trump. Similarly, some European leaders have already announced their intent to recognize ‘Palestine' as a state, contrary to America's position on this. First, we look at the war in Ukraine and how it emboldens terrorists and makes the threat of terrorism worse, from allowing them to learn from the drones and other weapons to teaching them combat skills they can bring home or to countries they want to attack, and more.  Next, we look at how the tsunami of Radical Islamist migrants has overtaken Europe, destroying its culture and economic stability, despite the original expectations that opening their doors to these migrants would be a good thing. It's a stark warning to America. Finally, we look at the shocking developments in the surreptitious arrival of so-called Palestinian ‘refugees' landing at airports throughout America, brought in by charities affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood, and what will be done about it. 

August marks Black Philanthropy Month, a vital initiative launched in 2011 to champion funding equity and uplift philanthropic efforts within communities of African descent. This focus is more critical than ever, as the percentage of funding directed towards Black charities has decreased by over 30% since the surge in giving that followed George Floyd's death. In Part One of this two-part series, we'll dive into the fundamentals of philanthropy from the perspective of non-profit leaders. We'll explore the "5 T's of philanthropy" and discuss effective funding strategies designed to build a sustainable organization. You'll also get an introduction to the Minnesota Black Collective Foundation.
