Aditi Shirali is a psychologist in Adelaide. On 11 October she's putting on Voices In My Head at Star Theatres. It's her second show. The first was for adults. This one is for teenagers and their parents, and tickets are sold as a parent and teen combo.We talked about her show, then about our own parents. We ran out of time.The show. Aditi says teenagers have a weird competition with their parents. We try to impress them and achieve things for them, then they say their girl has lost the spark. Until about 12, kids copy you. Then hormones arrive. Her show is about how parents talk to their kids, because the way you talk becomes their inner voice. She told her son she'd be unavailable for a couple of weeks. He told his dad that Mum was stressed and to leave her alone. If she'd told him to go away, she says, he'd have decided he was the problem.The critical voice.Aditi hears her mother's voice in her own sessions. Her suggestion is to call your mum by her first name. Mine is Sarla.Projection. One of Aditi's first assignments in Adelaide was training a room of Aussie tradies and one older woman. She kept looking to the woman for validation and realised she was treating her like her mum. India and Australia. Aditi did her bachelor's in Mumbai, her master's in Wales, her internship in Greece, and spent part of school in Doha. Her Adelaide clients are 99.5 percent local Australians, aged five to 77. Her view is that people are people. Australian families are involved, just differently. Indian families take each other for granted and always show up.Rent and chores. I have words about Australian parents charging their kids rent. Aditi's view is moderation. Her son writes his chores in an account book and it goes into his own account when he's older. Full rent is cruel, she says.Hitting. Aditi says no, and separates it from containing a child mid-tantrum. It gets you a fearful child or a rebellious one. My mum hit me regularly. I was rebellious. In my mid-20s I told her she wasn't doing it anymore and she stopped.Racism. During one of her first assignments in Adelaide, Aditi once heard two white Australians talking about how white Australia was better. They apologised to her during the break. She asked where their grandparents were from. Everyone except Aboriginal people comes from somewhere else, she told them. She tells her own kids the divide is political.Tickets for Voices In My Head are on Eventbrite, or through the link in Aditi's Instagram bio. She sees clients online on weekends and works from Okay Psychology in Adelaide.Aditi Shirali: Instagram | T.E.A. ConnectionNaina: Instagram | Website | YouTube | Be a guest

Previously, he was President at ServiceNow, helping scale the company from roughly $100M to $5B in revenue, after helping take another software company in Data Domain from zero customers to more than $1B in revenue. David is widely regarded as one of Silicon Valley's most successful go-to-market, sales, revenue and business building executives of all time.In this rare public conversation, David joins Vidit to unpack a career spent building some of enterprise software's defining companies. He shares how he was initially rejected by Data Domain for not being “aggressive enough”, only to join when it had zero customers and around 18 employees and help scale it beyond $1 billion in revenue — revealing the intensity, hiring philosophy and relentless focus on execution that shaped him as a leader. They also explore David's decade at ServiceNow, where he helped scale the business from roughly $100 million to $5 billion, what he learned working alongside legendary CEO Frank Slootman, and the painful customer failure that fundamentally changed how he thought about leadership. David then opens up about leaving operating at the height of his career to become a General Partner at Coatue, where he now co-leads its Growth Fund, and the surprisingly difficult transition from being the person making decisions to the investor sitting beside the founder. Along the way, he reflects on building exceptional sales teams, spotting future leaders, the future of enterprise go-to-market, flying 250,000–350,000 miles a year, the impact that ambition had on his family, and why curiosity has remained a constant throughout his life.Please enjoy exploring your curiosity._______Get in touch with us via email at contact@curiositycentre.comJoin our stable of commercial partners including the Australian Government, Google, KPMG,, Allens, Macquarie Capital, Xero, JP Morgan and more.

He has advised three Australian Prime Ministers, served as Uber's Global Head of Economic Policy in San Francisco, and more. Today, he leads Mandala and serves on several prominent government and public-policy boards.In this conversation with Vidit, Amit shares his journey from growing up amid political instability in Fiji and moving to Australia as a teenager, to running a $20 million organisation with 200 employees at just 21 — before going on to work at the highest levels of Australian government. He reflects on going from Freehills to Kevin Rudd's office in the space of two days, subsequently working for Julia Gillard and briefly Anthony Albanese, and the experience of technically losing his job five times during his political career. Amit also shares the equal-pay decision he is proudest of, which delivered a 23–45% pay increase for 150,000 predominantly female care workers. Amit also explains why he left government for technology, what moving to San Francisco and working at Uber taught him about ambition and taking risks, and how those experiences ultimately led to building Mandala as a globally focused economics and policy firm. They also explore Amit's Fijian-Indian identity, why he believes the Australia–India economic relationship remains underdone despite decades of intent, the opportunity across technology, AI and services, and why changing Australians' understanding of modern India could unlock a much deeper relationship.

This week's Hemp Podcast is divided into two parts. First, we take a look at the recent changes in U.S. hemp policy in a conversation with Rachel Umansky-Castro, the agriculture reporter for Bloomberg Government, who has spent the summer covering the fight over the federal definition of hemp. She walks us through what's been happening in D.C. lately, who the various lobbying groups are and what they ultimately want from federal policy. "There are so many divisions among these lawmakers, and it's clear that the hemp issue has split members of the same party, " Umansky-Castro said. Last week, Congress used a continuing resolution to push the so-called Mitch McConnell deadline from November to December 11, and Umansky-Castro explains what that extra month does and doesn't buy the industry. In part two of the show, we check in with Tennessee filmmaker Jordan Berger, whose documentary, "One Plant," is finally finished after several years of production. "The plant itself, you know, it touches on everything. And this thing started as a series because there's just so much, but we ultimately made it one film," Berger said. One Plant premieres at the Nashville Film Festival on September 26, 2026. From there, the film travels around the country to other festivals, with stops in Bozeman, MT; Santa Cruz, CA; and Minneapolis, MN. On October 24, the Lancaster Farming Industrial Hemp Podcast will host a double screening of One Plant in Lancaster, PA, at the Zoetropolis Theatre with a Q&A and time to meet others from the film and the Pennsylvania hemp community.

90% of her business comes from referrals. She has never made a cold call, never sent a cold email, and never pitched herself at a networking event. And she built the whole thing in four years, starting with zero recruiting background. April Ben-Sabat became a recruiter by accident. She spent six years as the right hand at a transport company, told them in her first interview she would own a business within five years, and when they could not find a transport recruiter to backfill her, her own boss said the words that changed everything: why don't you start a recruiting agency? A year later the company went bankrupt and she was all in, whether she was ready or not. What she built next is the playbook this episode unpacks. April went from searching "business networking" on Eventbrite and showing up to anything free, to becoming the recruiter an entire city refers. She walks through exactly how she works a room she has never been in: standing at the door, finding the person who is alone, opening with "what brings you here," and shimmying into conversations without an ounce of pitch. She explains why she goes to every event alone, why bringing a wingman makes you less approachable, and the solo restaurant challenge she gave herself, one Friday night, no phone allowed, that trained her to be comfortable in any room. Then she goes deeper: why following up with "great meeting you last night" is the same as handing out a business card, what to reference instead, and how posting on LinkedIn keeps her in the feed of everyone she has ever met so the referral arrives eight months later. When the events around her felt empty, she built her own, with a curated guest list, a word-match game on the back of every name tag, and a room engineered for people who are scared of networking. And because standing still was never the plan, April is now tearing up her own playbook, taking her agency into the US market and a brand new niche while building her own AI sourcing agent with Claude Code. Job order in, vetted shortlist out, outreach in her voice, and an ATS she never opens anymore. As April tells it, the shortlists are finding people a human sourcer could not surface in two weeks of full-time searching. She also draws her hard line: the first message can be automated, but the moment a real conversation starts, the human takes over. Whether you are grinding without direction, sitting behind the screen wondering why BD feels broken, or curious what one non-developer recruiter can build in a weekend, this conversation is the push to get in the room. What You'll Learn: The exact first 90 seconds of walking into a room where you know nobodyWhy April never sells at networking events and how referrals arrive months later anywayThe follow-up message that actually gets remembered, and the one that gets ignoredHow to host your own networking event that people beg to return toHow she built an AI sourcing agent on Claude Code that searches her ATS and beyondThe one thing she refuses to automate, and why candidates thank her for it Finish The Year Strong 2026 (Sept 28 - Oct 5).

Is lube only for dryness? Absolutely not. In this episode of Please Me! Podcast with Eve, host Eve Hall explores sexuality, sexual health, and sexual pleasure with physical therapist and LavaLube founder Kristen Damery. They discuss why sexual lubricant belongs in everyone's bedroom and how the right lube can enhance pleasure, reduce friction, support safer sex, and make solo and partnered intimacy more comfortable. Lube isn't just for vaginal dryness or sexual dysfunction. Sexual lubricants can enhance sensation, increase comfort, reduce friction and the risk of irritation and micro-tears, and make many types of sexual activity more enjoyable. Eve and Kristen break down the different types of lube—including water-based, silicone-based, oil-based, and hybrid lubricants—and explain how to choose the right lubricant for condoms, sex toys, vaginal sex, anal sex, postpartum changes, perimenopause, and menopause. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why lube isn't just for vaginal dryness or sexual dysfunction How sexual lubricant can enhance sexual pleasure, sensation, comfort, and intimacy How reducing friction can help reduce irritation and the risk of micro-tears The differences between water-based, silicone-based, oil-based, and hybrid lubricants How to choose the best lube for sex toys, condoms, vaginal sex, and anal sex Why silicone lube is long-lasting and water-resistant When oil-based lubricants can be useful—and when they shouldn't be used Why lube can be especially helpful for anal play, postpartum changes, perimenopause, and menopause How to choose a lubricant for sensitive skin and different types of sexual activity Why adding lube can be one of the easiest and most affordable ways to enhance sexual pleasure How thinking differently about lubrication can change the way we approach sexuality and sexual wellness Connect with Kristen DameryIG: Instagram  LavaLube Get 10% off here: https://mylavalube.com/?ref=PLEASEME Connect with Eve: Reach out for questions, partnerships, retreats, speaking engagements, or collaborations.

Jong and Michael are once again joined by Chalice Williams of Reel Movie Junkie, to discuss the latest episode of Lanterns. The trio share why the John Stewart focused episode was needed more than a Hal Jordan-centric one, giving John an origin story, the Guardian's ignorance, the process of making a Green Lantern, what did Hal's facial expression mean at the end of the episode, how does Sinestro play into Hal's treatment of John, how the series doesn't spoon feed info to viewers, the ability of the series to add questions but add new layers with each episode, parents doing their best, the incredible performances of Jasmine Cephas Jones & J. Alphonse Nicholson, whether showing love is a stepping stone to fear, and much more! The group also share memories and thoughts on the passing of the legendary voice actor Peter Cullen, who passed away last week at the age of 85. Follow Chalice as she continues her "Road to Doomsday" series on social media, @HeyChalice on Instagram, Threads, and TikTok.

When the fair shuts and the humans go home, the woodland animals let themselves in. Nobody's in charge. Yet it works perfectly. Community expert Gill Tiney is back to discuss The Midnight Fair by Gideon Sterer. It's a wordless picture book, which makes it a very quiet business text indeed. We discuss who guides when nobody leads, how your members can pay you without using actual money + the one thing these animals do on their way out that humans almost never manage. This is a Classics episode, where we treat a book that is absolutely not a business book as though it were.

On today's show, Norris Howard and I are talking about the massive debate over data centers sweeping Southeast Michigan. From moratoriums to legal battles to recall efforts, local communities are raising real questions about energy, water, and land use. We also talk through the University of Michigan selecting an Ypsilanti Township site for a $1.25 billion supercomputer project with Los Alamos National Lab, the response from longtime Rep. Debbie Dingell, and why the city of Detroit's power grid makes hyperscale data centers a tough sell without huge infrastructure investment. Plus, we address the large amont of listener feedback we received after our recent primary election coverage. We hear you, and we discuss how we're bringing on more guest voices ahead of November to make sure the full range of local viewpoints is represented — as the state of Michigan as a whole voted one way, but Metro Detroit clearly voted another. Finally, we toast a Detroit journalism legend: WDET News Director Jerome Vaughn, who is retiring after many years of guiding local public radio. Norris shares what Jerome's mentorship meant for his own career. REMINDER: Our Summer Studio Open House is this Saturday, August 15, from 10a to 1p at TechTown!

Greektown has been a staple of downtown Detroit for generations. I have so many great memories as a kid, and it's one of the most "city-feeling" areas of Detroit, and has a litany of great restaurants, bars, and more. Now, a major transformation has made Monroe Street more flexible, pedestrian-friendly, and vibrant for the future. Norris Howard and I sat down with Lori Singleton, landscape architect and design director at SmithGroup, to break down the vision behind the new Greektown streetscape. We dive into: The Shift to Pedestrian-First Design and why sacrificing some on-street parking allowed for expanded outdoor dining, curbless walkways, and flexible plaza spaces. How clever systems and underground engineering keep street trees healthy without destroying sidewalks or drowning roots. And how incremental public space improvements — from the Dequindre Cut, to Beacon Park, to Capitol Park, to Grand Circus Park — are reshaping how people experience downtown Detroit. There are more images in our newsletter going out tonight. Sign up here: https://www.dailydetroit.com/ Remember that our Summer Studio Open House is SATURDAY MORNING!

Joe Rogan sits down with Perplexity AI founder Aravind Srinivas for one of the most thought-provoking conversations on artificial intelligence in recent memory. But before they dive into AI, the discussion takes an unexpected turn into ancient Hindu texts, lost civilizations, mysterious engineering, and whether history knows more than we think. From there, they explore the future of AI, the jobs it may replace, why curiosity could become humanity's most valuable skill, and whether America is still the best place to build world-changing companies. We break down the biggest moments, our favorite insights, and whether this is one of the best JRE episodes of the year.
