De Nederlandse cultureel psycholoog Jaco Koehler publiceerde onlangs in de 'International Journal of Maritime History' wat er volgens hem ten grondslag lag aan de moordpartijen waardoor een groot deel van de opvarenden van de Batavia aan hun einde kwam. Hij denkt dat de moordpartijen het gevolg waren van extreme honger en dorst. Tot nu toe werd er door onderzoekers uitgegaan van muiterij. Wij bespreken de nieuwe theorie met maritiem archeoloog professor Wendy van Duivenvoorde van Flinders University.

In a rare override of state authority, US President Trump has deployed 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles, despite strong objections from Governor Gavin Newsom. The deployment follows a series of federal immigration raids that resulted in 44 arrests in LA, part of a broader national campaign. Citing Title 10 of the U.S. Code, Trump framed the action as necessary to protect federal infrastructure and personnel. The move has triggered renewed scrutiny of executive power, state-federal tensions, and the appropriate use of military force in civil contexts. Was it justified—or a federal overstep? Is this law and order, or presidential overreach? On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Dr Jessica Genauer, Senior Lecturer in International Relations, Flinders University to find out.

Onderzoekers hebben altijd gedacht dat het meerendeel van de opvarenden van de Batavia aan hun einde kwam door muiterij gepleegd door enkele bemanningsleden van het schip. Ze vonden daarvoor meerdere aanwijzingen. De Nederlandse cultureel psycholoog Jaco Koehler publiceerde onlangs een heel andere visie in de International Journal of Maritime History. Hij denkt dat de moordpartijen het gevolg waren van extreme honger en dorst. Wij bespreken deze nieuwe theorie met maritiem archeoloog Wendy van Duivenvoorde van Flinders University.

US President Donald Trump has said the US has "no stronger partner" than Saudi Arabia during his first major foreign trip. Speaking in Riyadh, the US president pledged to lift all sanctions against Syria, saying it was now time for the country to move forward with ‘a chance at greatness’. Day one of the tour saw the US and Saudi Arabia announce a $142 billion arms deal, as well as investments that the country's crown prince said could eventually be worth $1 trillion. What does Trump want from his Middle East tour? With so much emphasis on economic diplomacy and personal alliances, how far can Trump’s approach go in reshaping Middle Eastern geopolitics? Is the US President using his office for personal gain?

Palestinian health authorities say Israeli air strikes in Gaza have killed at least 200 people, many of the dead children. Attacks hit dozens of targets earlier today, ending a weeks-long stand-off over extending the ceasefire that halted fighting in January. The Israeli military says it is carrying out "extensive strikes" in the Gaza Strip, targeting what it called "terror targets" belonging to Hamas. This is the largest wave of airstrikes in Gaza since the ceasefire began on 19 January. Talks to extend the Gaza ceasefire have failed to reach an agreement. How will this conflict continue to unfold in the coming days? Will we be able to achieve another ceasefire deal anytime soon?

If it benefits the health of the whole country, would you be willing to pay for someone else in Australia to lose weight? Ozempic, Wegovy and medications like them have revolutionised weight loss in Australia and around the world in the past few years, and both are now approved for treating diabetes and your taxpayer money goes towards subsidising their cost. But the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme has rejected funding them for weight loss. This means that people who are overweight but do not have diabetes are looking at hundreds of dollars a month if they want to try them to lose weight. On this episode of the Briefing, we’re asking – is that the right call? Bension Siebert is joined by Jonathan Karnon, Professor in Health Economics at Flinders University’s College of Medicine and Public Health, and Lauren Ball, Professor of Community Health and Wellbeing at The University of Queensland, to help answer the question.

In this edition of The Conversation Hour we look at the trauma associated with a home invasion and how we are best placed to manage the impact it can have. Also, as health apps increase in popularity we explore some research out of Flinders University that looks at where they are helpful and when they can be harmful. The new series of White Lotus has us ‘set jetting' and why renting a frock for that do could be a better option than buying. 

A little over three years ago I interviewed Andre Borell, director of Envoy: Shark Cull, a hard-hitting documentary highlighting the archaic shark mitigation systems employed by the Australian government throughout Queensland and New South Wales. The doco, narrated by Eric Banna, was initially aired exclusively on Stan and three years down the line has a much greater global audience through many other popular media streams including Netflix. During today's episode, I grab an update from Andre and an excellent insight into his latest project, the Shark Stop wetsuit. Now, in its second round of funding, the Shark Stop wetsuits were originally designed by surfer Haydon Burford, who wanted to find a wetsuit similar to the impact protection for motorcyclists via Kevlar. Through his research and development, he created what we see now as the bite-resistant wetsuit Shark Stop. Tested by Flinders University on board the Rodney Fox vessel, Andre shares the impressive results and findings, so join me as we delve deeper into the creation, those results, the progress of the business, and the opportunities available for investors seeking to make a change.

That does mean we dissect Elon Musk's comments about colonising Mars.We also talk about the space debris that fell on Kenya earlier this month— or was it something else? And we discuss Blue Origin's New Glenn launch vehicle which failed to launch on Monday, the future of human civilisation, early science fiction, O'Neill cylinders, and the pronunciation of Uranus.Full podcast details and credits at:https://the9pmedict.com/edict/00241/Please consider supporting this podcast with your cash-type money:https://the9pmedict.com/tip/https://skank.com.au/subscribe/

Dr Ruud Stelten, Flinders University Bad weather led Dutch ship into Western Australian coast The Dutch East India Company ship, the Zuytdorp, likely crashed into the shore of Western Australia due to a storm and not bad navigation, new research has found.   Published in the Journal of Maritime Archaeology, Flinders University archaeologists Dr Ruud Stelten and Professor Wendy van Duivenvoorde analysed ship logs, contemporary cartographic and navigational knowledge and weather patterns at the time in a bid to understand how the ship went down.   Four Dutch shipwrecks have been found off the coast of WA within the last century, with the Batavia and the horrors of its mutinous crew arguably the most famous of the collection.   Discovered in 1927 about 60km north of the WA coastal town of Kalbarri, and formally identified in 1958, the Zuytdorp was travelling from the Dutch port of Vlissingen on the way to Batavia, now present-day Jakarta, when it became lost at sea.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we have another Uniting Church Chaplain, Rev Dave Williamson, a member of the Chaplaincy team at Flinders University since 2014. All at Flinders are welcomed by Oasis. The Oasis Team at Flinders is committed to supporting students and staff across multi-faiths, regardless of ethnicity, gender or gender identity. Dave introduces us to the African concept of Ubuntu, communal sharing and mutual support. A Multi-faith diversity in outreach is seen by the Oasis chaplaincy team as one of their strengths. Dave's talk may well point us to ways where we as a community can help with the work of Oasis at Flinders?

In this episode, host Dr. Seema Khosla welcomes Dr. Danny J. Eckert, a sleep and respiratory physiologist and professor at Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia. Dr. Eckert is a leading expert in his field and the recipient of the 2023 European Respiratory Society Gold Medal in Sleep-Disordered Breathing. As the Director of the Adelaide Institute for Sleep Health, he discusses his groundbreaking work on OSA endotyping and the PALM classification system (Pcrit, Arousal threshold, Loop gain, and Muscle recovery). Discover why 70% of OSA patients have non-anatomical causes and how understanding these distinct endotypes can revolutionize treatment approaches. The conversation delves into practical applications for clinical settings, examining the roles of obesity and nasal obstruction in sleep apnea while discussing targeted therapeutic strategies, including GABAergic medications.

Really Interesting Women - the podcastEpisode 139Mem Fox AMMem Fox is one of this country's favourite writers.In 1983, she became Australia's best-selling writer and has remained the pre-eminent writer for young children pretty much since then. She has written over 45 books for children, many of which have become international best-sellers in Australia and the US. But it was one book in particular that caught international attention and thrust her into the public's orbit. And that book was originally called ‘Hush the Invisible Mouse', but, we now know it as... Possum Magic. Mem was born in Melbourne and grew up in Africa. She went to drama school in England, and came back to Australia in 1970, aged 22. She claims that growing up outside the country and returning at 22 gave her a unique perspective on Australia, and a passionate love for it.Mem Fox is a retired Associate Professor of Literacy Studies from Flinders University, South Australia, where she taught teachers for 24 years until 1996.Her latest book is Meerkat Mayhem, illustrated by Judy Horacek, published on November 5th 2024.Head to the link in my bio for our podcast conversation. Visit instagram @reallyinterestingwomen for further interviews and posts of interesting women in history.

In this episode, host Ellie Woodacre interviews three guests on their recently released works on medieval queens in Routledge's Lives of Royal Women series. We talk to Matt Firth, Gabby Storey and Caroline Wilhelmsson about the development of queenship in the early and high Middle Ages, the key elements of the exercise of the queen's office, how these women were styled (or styled themselves) with titles and which queens have been often overlooked but deserve much more attention.Guest Bios:Matt Firth is an Associate Lecturer of medieval history and literature at Flinders University and a 2025 Australian Research Council DECRA Fellow. His research primarily focuses on historiography, cultural memory, and the transmission of historical narrative across time and place. His most recent article, revising the transmission history Alfred the Great's sobriquet has just been published in The English Historical Review. His first monograph, Early English Queens 850–1000: Potestas Reginae, released earlier this year, examines the history and evolving legacies of England's tenth-century queens. Gabrielle (Gabby) Storey is a historian of monarchy, gender, and sexuality. She has published widely in both popular and academic print on medieval monarchy, rulership, and representations of queenship and power in modern media. Her first book, Berengaria of Navarre, queen of England, Lord of Le Mans, was published by Routledge in 2024. She is currently working on her second book which will be for the general public. Gabby is the founder of Team Queens, an online global queenship resource, and her most recent publication is an edited collection with Zita Eva Rohr on Premodern ruling sexualities, published MUP in 2024.  Caroline Wilhelmsson is an early career historian of state formation and national identity in medieval Sweden. She studies the legal, political, and religious frameworks which led to the emergence of Sweden as a concept. Her first monograph, a group biography of Sweden's earliest recorded queens, sheds light on the inner workings of the nascent Swedish "state" at a time when the monarchy was still ill-defined, and the Church was weak. She is currently a postdoctoral researcher at University College Cork where she is mapping medieval Irish walled towns. 

Het Australische leger heeft een aantal veldslagen gehad waar ze heel bekend mee geworden zijn. Gallipoli is misschien wel de bekendste. Bas de Groot werkte jarenlang als onderzoeker en archivaris bij Flinders University in Adelaide. Urenlang speurde hij naar verhalen van Nederlanders die tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog voor Australië dienden. Zo stuitte hij op een aantal Nederlandse mannen die met de Australian Light Horse naar de Egyptische woestijn gingen om te vechten tegen het Ottomaanse Rijk.

In 2018, Queensland decriminalised abortion up to 22 weeks' gestation without a doctor's permission. Now, the prospect of repealing those laws has become a major issue ahead of this weekend's state election.In South Australia too, the legality of abortion has been contested in the parliament. So, why is abortion up for debate? Today, Prudence Flowers from Flinders University on why what's happening here can be linked to the United States.  Dr Flowers explains that the overturning of Roe v Wade in the US has sent shock waves globally, influencing debates in Australia. She says the political landscape in Queensland is particularly volatile, with independent MP Robbie Katter pushing for a repeal of the decriminalisation law. She notes the significant anti-abortion sentiment within the Liberal National Party, which could impact the outcome if they win the election. In South Australia, recent legislative attempts to restrict abortion have narrowly failed, reflecting the contentious nature of the issue. Featured: Dr Prudence Flowers, senior lecturer at Flinders UniversityKey Topics:Queensland abortion lawsSouth Australia abortion debateRoe v WadeRobbie KatterLiberal National Party and abortionUS influence on Australian politicsReproductive rightsPolitical strategies in electionsAbortion laws

As World War I engulfed Europe, Britain and its colonies were not spared. Despite Cyprus avoiding conscription like Canada, the British coaxed Cypriots to enlist in auxiliary roles, notably the mule corps, to aid the Allies on the Salonica front. Promised non-combat duties, Cypriots soon found themselves thrust into conflict. How were they persuaded? What trials did they face? How did they fare upon their return? I welcome back Professor Andrekos Varnava from Flinders University as we discuss one of his latest books, "Serving the Empire in the Great War: The Cypriot Mule Corps, Imperial Loyalty and Silenced Memory," which you can find on Amazon: (this is the Canadian Website).

Across the weekend fire was traded across the Israel Lebanon border.  Despite multiple countries calling for a ceasefire, tensions in the region have escalated, now with Israel extending fire into Yemen.  Why is this happening and how likely are we to see a ceasefire anytime soon?

For this month's primary source, I've taken some liberty with its recording, turning this very real enlistment ad into a radio spot. However, historically speaking, there was no radio service at the time -- and so this certainly would not have been broadcast in Cyprus. Given the widespread illiteracy at the time, enlistment campaigns such as the one here, would've been read aloud at the local καφενεíο (coffee-house) by the village teacher to any man in earshot to advertise the high rates of pay, food, clothing and relative safety in supporting Great Britain during the First World War. Though many are familiar with Cyprus' participation in the Second World War, its role in the First is less known. Why would Cypriots have enlisted to begin with? And did they indeed face "non-combative roles" as promised? Next month, I welcome back Professor Andrekos Varnava from Flinders University as we discuss one of his latest books, "Serving the Empire in the Great War: The Cypriot Mule Corps, Imperial Loyalty and Silenced Memory."

Professor Corey Bradshaw (global ecologist; author) has spent a career studying species populations and biodiversity loss and has the starkest of messages for humanity: we are in our own mass extinction event. Debate rages as to whether humans have an overpopulation problem or are in a fertility collapse, and which is more likely to take us down.The director of the Global Ecology Lab at Flinders University talks us through the devasting finer points of this divide. We also cover why Australia has the highest mammalian extinction rate in the world, why we should be having one less child, what happens when bees die out, and the importance of supporting anyone trying to ban political donations. This conversation is a hard one, but like many in this space, Corey has a philosophy for living fully and joyously with the truth he feels compelled to share: Life is going to get far shittier than we can imagine; our noble obligation is to make it a bit less shitty.SHOW NOTESHere's the chapter in my book where I explain in full how fertility collapse is playing out.

Do animals fall in love at first sight?Every species has different traits that are 'attractive' — they're showing off their DIY skills making a bower, vibrating sexy fruit fly songs, puffing up a wattle, or just having really massive moose… antlers.Is this innate attraction like falling in love or is it more like meeting a (really hot) investment advisor?Because these attractive traits are also messages about genes – who will make a good investment to partner with for the next generation.Of course, one species beauty is another's turn off, and some species have a very low bar (looking at you guppies), so Hot or Not could end up being a very individual thing.Sex is Weird is a new series of What the Duck?! with Dr Ann Jones following the sexual evolution of the animal kingdom.Please note that this program contains adult themes and explicit language.

(Conversation recorded on July 25th, 2024)   Show Summary:  Human overpopulation is often depicted in the media in one of two ways: as either a catastrophic disaster or an overly-exaggerated concern. Yet the data understood by scientists and researchers is clear. So what is the actual state of our overshoot, and, despite our growing numbers, are we already seeing the signs that the sixth mass extinction is underway? In this episode, Nate is joined by global ecologist Corey Bradshaw to discuss his recent research on the rapid decline in biodiversity, how population and demographics will change in the coming decades, and what both of these will mean for complex global economies currently reliant on a stable environment. How might the current rate of species loss result in a domino effect of widespread and severe impacts on the health of the biosphere? What are the key factors driving changes in population growth, and how do these vary across different countries and cultures? Could we stabilize these trends and achieve a sustainable balance between biodiversity and human population through targeted policies and initiatives — and how much time is left to act?   About Corey Bradshaw: Corey Bradshaw is the Matthew Flinders Professor of Global Ecology and Director of the Global Ecology Laboratory at Flinders University in South Australia. He is also the head of the Flinders Modelling Node of the Centre of Excellence for Australian Biodiversity and Heritage. He has completed three tertiary degrees in ecology (BSc, MSc, PhD) from universities in Canada and New Zealand, and a Certificate in Veterinary Conservation Medicine from Murdoch University. In a world where human activity has precipitated the current Anthropocene extinction event, he aims to provide irrefutable evidence to influence government policy and private behavior for the preservation of our planet's biowealth. He has published over 300 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 13 book chapters and 3 books, including The Effective Scientist and Killing the Koala and Poisoning the Prairie.  --- Support Institute for the Study of Energy and Our Future Join our Substack newsletter Join our Discord channel and connect with other listeners --- Show Notes and More  Watch this video episode on Youtube
