How do young people engage in the news cycle? Where do they go for information? What content interests them? These are the questions brands, businesses, and governments are asking as they all try to connect with younger audiences. This week on the podcast we speak with someone who has some of those answers. Billi Fitzsimons is the Editor in Chief at The Daily Aus. It's a newsroom that's been designed with young people in mind. This independent newsroom boasts over 2 million visits per month and has a particular style which appeals to vibrant and influential young Australians. Billi eloquently tells us how and where it started, and what's happening there now. At The Daily Aus., news is delivered free of opinion, directly to the consumer via many platforms. Podcasting being one of them, and you'll hear in Billi's voice her passion for this format. Her recent interview with Opposition Leader Sussan Ley is a great example of podcasting serving its younger audiences, with the questions not too dissimilar to that of traditional media but asked through a young person's lens. This young Editor's desire for storytelling, and appetite for news and content is apparent. The pedigree of media brilliance is not surprising when you discover who Billi's parentals are (Parentals so Gen X). She shares many hints and tips on how and why brands should front up and connect with younger people. After all, younger people make up a majority voting mass in the community, having overridden the 'baby boomers' last election. Looking forward to watching Billi make her way in the modern media landscape.

There have been two major socialist and socialist feminist victories in the last month. First was the election of socialist feminist Catherine Connolly to be president of Ireland and the other was the election of Zohran Mamdami to Mayor of NYC. But Mamdami's election would not have been possible without the groundswell of activism by grassroots groups like Indivisible, Jews for Economic Justice and DRUM Beat, a progressive grassroots south asian group that really turned out the vote for Zohran in the south asian community. And similarly the election of a leftist feminist to President of Ireland wouldn't not have been possible without the decades of struggle by Socialist feminists in Ireland. Today we will focus on these successes by talking to the activists that make these victories possible. In the first half of the show we will talk to two socialist feminist activists from Ireland to see what radical feminist organizing is happening there and what patriarchal forces they are up against. We will be joined by Camilla Fitzsimons who is a long-time socialist feminist and activist who has been involved in radical left-wing politics in Ireland all her adult life and has written two books on feminism in Ireland, “Ireland's ongoing fight for Reproductive Rights” and her new book “Rethinking Feminism in Ireland.” And we will talk to Isidora Duran who is an activist with the ROSA socialist feminist movement. ROSA was established on International Women's Day 8 March 2013 in Ireland as a feminist, anti-austerity and anti-capitalist group, seeking to build the socialist feminist wing of the growing abortion rights movement and was a major force in overturning the ban on abortion in Ireland in 2018. In the second half of the show I will talk to Simran Thind, a community organizer with the NYC grass roots progressive organization DRUM Beats. DRUM Beats is the sibling organization of DRUM ( Desis Rising Up and Moving) which is a multigenerational grassroots organization in NYC that focuses on building political power within working class South Asian and Indo-Caribbean communities to achieve radical social change . The post Irish socialist feminists Camilla Fitzsimons and Isidora Duran, and DRUM Beats organizer Simran Thind appeared first on KPFA.

The Labour Party says there needs to be a probe into the Public Service Commission posting ads about Thursday's mega-strike. About 100,000 workers in health and education are set to walk off the job later this week. Several commission adverts have appeared on social media - outlining how it'll disrupt services. PSA National Secretary Fleur Fitzsimons says the Commission is running political lines espoused by the Government. "What they are doing is attempting to position themselves favourably with the public when it comes to a collective bargaining matter that is subject to good faith."

Speranza: Poems by Jane Wilde (Liverpool UP, 2025) by Dr. Eibhear Walshe and Dr. Eleanor Fitzsimons is the first contemporary edition of the poetry of Jane Wilde, née Elgee, who also wrote as Speranza. Speranza was, in her time, renowned worldwide, with essays, poetry and translated work published in Ireland, England, America and beyond. She was a key figure in the nationalist Young Ireland movement of the 1840s, and her poetry records the hardship experienced by the Irish people - famine and migration in particular. She was also an early advocate for women's rights, who campaigned for the admission of women to higher education. This edition, which contains several previously unpublished poems, will make the poetry of this emblematic figure in nineteenth-century Irish writing accessible to a contemporary audience for the first time. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The Public Service Association says lifting public sector board member paychecks is total hypocrisy. A quietly-released Cabinet paper reveals annual governance board chair fees have jumped from up to $90,000, to more than $160,000. PSA National Secretary Fleur Fitzsimons says this decision comes from the same leaders who cancelled pay equity claims and offered meagre minimum-wage increases. "It's astonishing from a Government that was elected on addressing the cost of living crisis - and it seems for low-income workers and middle-income workers, this Government is nowhere to be seen."

I interviewed 60 Brits to debunk one of psychology's greatest myths. Priming is one of the best-known biases in behavioural science. Kahneman mentions it 35 times in his best-selling book Thinking Fast and Slow. And yet, I'm not convinced it really works. In five separate experiments, I tested it.

Spitzer corta a Susan Potter en 27,000 cortes.Alas 5:15 horas del 16 de febrero del año 2015, Susan murió a los 87 años de una neumonía, pero no tendría un funeral común y mucho menos un sepelio. Durante los últimos 15 años de su vida, ella había hecho planes específicos para lo que quería que se hiciera con su cuerpo. Desde que escuchó en el año 2000 acerca del Proyecto Humano Visible, que serviría para enseñar de una manera virtual y excepcional la materia de anatomía a los estudiantes de medicina, ella no dudó en ofrecer su cuerpo para el proyecto. Así fue como contactó al Dr. Spitzer con quien estuvo planeando todo para el momento de su muerte. Susan conoció hasta el detalle más espeluznante de lo que pasaría con su cuerpo, pero estaba feliz de hacer un bien a la ciencia. Actualmente, se le ha dado el nombre de «El cadáver inmortal», ya que el Dr. Spitzer planea resucitarla en un cadáver virtual que hable como Siri a los estudiantes de medicina.Mientras leía la historia de Susan, inevitablemente mis pensamientos hacían figuras de un hombre que planeó la manera de morir y el propósito de su muerte. Desde el momento que supo que la perfecta creación que recién había creado estaba destinada a una inminente muerte, él se ofreció para morir en lugar de ellos. Durante años planeó en conjunto con su Padre cómo sucederían los hechos. Jesús conocía a detalle todo lo que sufriría, sabía de los latigazos, de las bofetadas, de la saliva de otro en su rostro y de esa cruz pesada. Sabía de la burlesca corona de espinas dañando sus sienes y a pesar de ello con gozo continuó con tan grande e inigualable proyecto para los humanos que cumplió su objetivo con la gloriosa resurrección.Alabemos el nombre de Jesús por donar su cuerpo para ti y para mí y para todos los humanos que decidan aceptar la salvación que trajo con su muerte.

Welcome to What I Wish I Knew After Pregnancy Loss. In this raw and deeply moving episode, I'm joined by teacher, children's writer, and IVF warrior Jodie Fitzsimmons, who shares her unexpected five-year journey through secondary infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, IVF, and the eventual arrival of her rainbow baby at age 41. After a smooth first pregnancy, Jodie never anticipated the emotional terrain that followed when trying for a second child. Through years of failed cycles, grief, physical exhaustion, and emotional breakdowns—paired with the pressure of being an “older mum”—she found solace in writing and connection. Her words have now become a lighthouse for others navigating similar terrain. This episode is a heartfelt invitation into the unspoken spaces of motherhood, womanhood, and identity after loss. We also reflect on the importance of recognising the silent suffering of partners, the underestimated emotional toll of IVF, and the healing that comes through storytelling and community. In This Episode, We Explore: What secondary infertility can look and feel like The emotional toll of IVF and recurrent pregnancy loss Navigating pregnancy after loss with fear and resilience The impact of infertility on relationships and mental health Why writing and storytelling can be a powerful healing tool The unspoken grief of male partners in fertility journeys Finding community, validation, and voice through vulnerability

On this episode, we talk with Hallie Fitzsimons. Hallie has been an athlete her entire life involved with volleyball, tennis, running, softball, and D1 Crew in college but getting into more endurance sports in 2009 is where she met some amazing women to train with while she was living on the North Shore of Oahu. After her first sprint distance triathlon Hallie really dove in headfirst immediately signing up for several IRONMAN events, and traveling the world to race, train, and ride her bike. Hallie has battled several health issues in her triathlon career, even crashing her bike in 2019 breaking just about every bone you could and clawing my way back to the sport as soon as she physically could. She has been lucky enough to work with her coach Rob Reinhard for the past 10+ years where she has seen a significant amount of age group success and been lucky enough to be part of an amazing Varlo Triathlon team for the past 3 years. At 40, Hallie continues to remain extremely competitive, enjoying as many races as possible a year with a full-time career and a house full of fur kids.
