Every generation thinks they have it tougher than their predecessors. But arguably, 30-year-olds in Australia right now actually do. In this episode of The Briefing, Bension Siebert is joined by Russel Howcroft, a 59-year-old businessman you may recognise from the ABC TV show The Gruen Transfer, to explain why he thinks we need to talk about why millennials really do have it tough.

Russel Howcroft has been talking to Australians about how they are sold things for years on the much loved TV show Gruen - Now he lets us in on the secret of how he sells things to his kids! (Hint: like any good client pitch, it's more guiding, less telling In a free ranging chat that follows the whims of Russ's very active mind, he explores with Hame how his own upbringing influences the choices he now makes as a father, how he has actively fostered creativity in his kids, and why it can be scary to do so. He explains his devotion to instilling confidence in his kids, and creating the freedom to make their own choices (and their own mistakes!). He also revisits times when he was a very busy corporate guy, and how with the benefit of hindsight, he views the perpetual challenge of balancing work and life. And Russ also finishes with a big long list. It's a bit like his version of (Everybody's Free) to Wear Sunscreen, but on the way he parents. Maybe we can put it to music one day! His final point is perhaps his best. We teach our kids how to love - so make sure you do it right! With wife Kate, Russ is a parent to 3 adult children. Other than on occasion Shunning Hamish - Russ is best known as a longtime panellist on Gruen (and previously Gruen Transfer), and he is co-host of Melbourne's top rating breakfast radio show, Ross and Russ on 3AW. He's had a long and successful career as a business leader, is the author of 3 books, and is the chair of the Australian Film Television and Radio School and of the Jim Stynes Foundation.

Avete presente quel senso di smarrimento e di vertigine che si prova dentro i grandi centri commerciali? Non è una vostra impressione, dietro c'è una volontà precisa. Scoprite la storia di Victor Gruen che prima inventò i centri commerciali e poi votò la vita a cercare di distruggere la sua invenzione. TRASCRIZIONE [ENG translation below]Una delle tante belle cose del vivere a Cagliari è che qui in Sardegna non ci sono i grandi centri commerciali a 20.000 piani, con la superficie che è quella di una piccola cittadina di provincia.Sì, perché a me questi posti fanno venire l'angoscia, e non lo dico così per dire, mi viene proprio, fisicamente sto male. Prima di tutto perdo l'orientamento, non so più dove andare, non riconosco più i punti di riferimento miei, non trovo l'uscita e più giro a vuoto e più mi innervosisco, e più mi innervosisco e meno riesco a trovare l'uscita.Mi è capitato diverse volte, appunto, persa in uno di questi giganteschi (e dico giganteschi) centri commerciali, di dover chiamare a casa per dire aiuto, non riesco a uscire, mi dici dov'è l'uscita del parcheggio tal dei tali, eccetera.Perché ve ne sto parlando? Perché mi è tornato in mente il buon vecchio Gruen, Victor Gruen, un architetto austriaco che a metà degli anni '50 ha inventato il centro commerciale, è andato a costruirlo negli Stati Uniti, boh, forse abitava già negli Stati Uniti, comunque, ha costruito il primo centro commerciale e lui si è inventato tutte queste cose che noi vediamo adesso in ogni supermercato: la musica per far trascorrere il tempo più lentamente, mettere le cose che vogliamo che la gente compri più in vista, mettere le gomme americane e le batterie alla cassa e queste cose qua, mettere la musica, mettere le luci in un certo modo, cambiare spesso la disposizione così che il cliente, la cliente abbia sempre questo senso di ma dove sono? Ma cosa faccio?Che sono anche le stesse tecniche usate all'interno dei casinò per far perdere la cognizione del tempo, infatti c'è sempre luce innaturale, non ci sono mai finestre, non ci sono mai orologi, così non si avverte il trascorrere del tempo.La cosa divertente, ironica più che divertente, è che dopo aver creato tutto questo sistema, il signor Victor Gruen, e aver stabilito come si fa a far rimanere una persona più a lungo nel centro commerciale, si è reso conto che tutti i suoi insegnamenti erano stati stravolti per approfittare della clientela e quindi ha misconosciuto, si è rivoltato contro la sua stessa creazione.Oggi si parla di Gruen Transfer, effetto Gruen, cioè quello che noi proviamo dentro il supermercato, dentro il grande magazzino: perdiamo un po il senso dell'orientamento e veniamo presi anche da questa gioia dell'acquisto e compriamo cose che non ci servono.Ecco, a me il Gruen transfer fa venire un gran nervoso, mi fa perdere l'orientamento e non vedo l'ora di uscire, di scappare. Niente grandi magazzini per me, niente super centri commerciali.TRANSLATIONOne of the many nice things about living in Cagliari is that here in Sardinia there are no big 20,000-story shopping malls, with the area being that of a small provincial town.Yes, because to me these places give me anxiety, and I'm not just saying that, I really get, physically I'm sick. First of all, I lose my orientation, I don't know where to go anymore, I don't recognise my own landmarks, I can't find the exit, and the more I go around in circles, the more nervous I get, and the more nervous I get, the less I can find the exit.It has happened to me several times, actually, lost in one of these giant (and I say giant) shopping malls, that I have to call home to say help, I can't get out, can you tell me where is the exit of such-and-such parking lot, etc.Why am I telling you about this? I was reminded of good old Gruen, Victor Gruen, an Austrian architect who in the mid-1950s invented the mall, and went to build it in the United States, IDK, maybe he was already living in the United States, anyway, he built the first mall and he came up with all these things that we see now in every supermarket: music to slow down time, put the things they want people to buy more prominently, put chewing gum and batteries at the checkout and these things here, put music, put the lights a certain way, change the layout often so that the customer always has this sense of but where am I? But what am I doing?These are also the same techniques used inside casinos to make people lose track of time, in fact, there is always unnatural light, there are never any windows, there are never any clocks, so you don't feel the passage of time.The funny thing, ironic rather than funny, is that after creating this whole system, Mr Victor Gruen, and establishing how to make a person stay longer in the mall, realised that all his teachings had been twisted to take advantage of the clientele and so he repudiated, turned against his own creation.Today we talk about Gruen Transfer, the Gruen effect, that is, what we experience inside the supermarket, inside the department store: we lose our sense of direction a bit and we also get caught up in this joy of buying and buying things we don't need.You see, to me, Gruen transfer makes me very nervous, makes me lose my bearings, and I can't wait to get out, to run away. No department stores for me, no super malls.Victor Gruen https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Gruen
Our guest says that marketing has a problem: "I think there's an over-reliance on people's opinions at the expense of creating a vision and sticking with it." and he claims this hurts our ability to build brands that get strong traction. Already a published author, he devoted his second book to this argument. The book's title is his plea to marketers: "Stop Listening to the Customer: Try Hearing Your Brand Instead" Adam Ferrier is the founder of Thinkerbell, an agency that creates ‘measured magic', and was ranked 2021 number one Creative Agency in the world by industry publication BestAds - the first time awarded to an Australian agency. Leading Australian publication Mumbrella also lists Thinkerbell as Full Service, Creative, and PR 2021 Agency of the Year (the only time an agency has ever won all three titles in one year). Adam is one of Australia's leading consumer psychologists, a brand strategist and an authority on behavioural economics. He's the author of The Advertising Effect: How to change behaviour (Oxford) and Stop Listening to the Customer: Try hearing your brand instead (Wiley). No stranger to the TV screen of Australia, Adam is a regular panelist on the Gruen Transfer, 7's Sunrise, and 10's The Project. As the creator of the idea behind the WARC World Innovation prize (2013), and winner of the rare Cannes Gold Lion and Gold Effie double, Adam has won at all of the world's major advertising shows. He created the successful board game The Analyst (translated into four languages), space; an unconference where 'ideas meet influence', and the social cause agency DOA (Decade of Action). Adam also co-hosts Black T-Shirts, a podcast that delivers XXL creativity for marketers. An unstoppable force in the Australian advertising landscape, Adam's hands delegate the keys to embrace evidence-based creativity – whether to buy, perform or change - through cognitive behavioural psychology, hardcore creativity and a deep understanding of behavioural economics.

Cosa hanno in comune il supermercato e la spiaggia? La poesia. Almeno quando a parlarne (o scriverne) è Annie Ernaux.LINK e TRASCRIZIONE (ENG translation below)Quando a novembre hanno assegnato i vari premi Nobel, anche quello per la letteratura, ero distratta, per cui non avevo idea che Annie Ernaux fosse la persona che lo scorso anno ha vinto il premio Nobel per la letteratura.Così, quando sono capitata in biblioteca e ho visto questo libro intitolato Guarda le luci, amore mio, una bellissima copertina dove c'è un campo vuoto e un piccolo carrello della spesa. Io sono appassionata di carrelli della spesa, di supermercati, di tutto quello che evocano i non-luoghi, gli spazi liminali, anche perché poi io soffro di Gruen Transfer, che ve ne parlerò in un altro momento.Ho cominciato a leggere questo libriccino di un'ottantina di pagine, che si legge veramente velocemente, l'ho letto in una giornata e sono rimasta folgorata perché Annie Ernaux (non so nemmeno se si pronunci così, non parlo francese) ha una capacità pazzesca di descrivere in modo molto semplice e incredibilmente poetico, profondo, delle piccole realtà che poi sono quelle che viviamo noi tutti i giorni.Infatti leggendo questo libro, lei cosa ha voluto fare in questo libro? È andata in un supermercato, particolarmente uno preciso, Auchan, e si è messa così a descrivere quello che vedeva. Sapete, lo facciamo tutti: vedete la coppia che sta litigando perché lui vuole comprare un prodotto e lei ne vuole comprare un altro, oppure vedete il pensionato che cerca gli spicciolini nel portamonete, poi porge la mano con le monete alla cassiera perché sia lei a scegliere le monetine, la gente che fa le cose velocemente, la gente, che le fa lentamente, insomma un campionario di umanità.Ma quello che caratterizza questa scrittrice è che lei riesce a infondere poesia anche nelle cose più più banali, nelle cose più pedestri. Una frase mi è rimasta impressa, la frase dice "il brusio del supermercato all'ora di punta mi ricorda il rumore del mare quando ti addormenti in spiaggia", cioè dopo una frase del genere, come si fa a non sciogliersi e a innamorarsi follemente di questa scrittrice?Ho finito molto velocemente quel libro. Sono subito corsa in biblioteca a prenderne un altro e adesso ho appena iniziato a leggere La donna gelata, un altro suo libro è anche questo è spettacolare. C'è tutta la prima parte dove parla delle donne della sua vita, ed è incredibile perché lei è nata negli anni '40, quindi è più grande di me, però (e poi lei è nata in Francia, io sono nata in Sardegna) però il modo in cui lei descrive queste donne, queste atmosfere, questi luoghi, come lei giocava da bambina, io mi ci rispecchio tantissimo.Ehm niente, sono immersa nella lettura e adesso mi sparerò tutti i libri di questa scrittrice che mi piace tantissimo e che vi consiglio di prendere in mano: lettura veloce, lettura bellissima e vi darà un po' di poesia nella giornata.ENGLISH translation with linksWhen in November they assigned the various Nobel prizes, including the one for literature, I was distracted, so I had no idea that Annie Ernaux was the person who won the Nobel Prize for literature last year. So, when I happened to be in the library and saw this book entitled Look at the lights, My Love, a beautiful cover [in the Italian edition] with a blank field and a small shopping cart. I am passionate about shopping carts, supermarkets, and everything that evokes non-places, liminal spaces, also because then I suffer from Gruen Transfer, which I will talk to you about at another time.I began reading this little book of about eighty pages, which reads very quickly, I read it in one day and I was struck by the fact that Annie Ernaux (I don't even know if it's pronounced like that, I don't speak French) has an incredible ability to describe in a very simple and incredibly poetic, deep way, small realities that are what we all live every day.In fact, by reading this book, what did she want to do in this book? She went to a supermarket, particularly one specific, Auchan, and began to describe what she saw. You know, we all do it: you see the couple fighting because he wants to buy one product and she wants to buy another, or you see the retiree looking for small change in his wallet, then handing the coins to the cashier so that she can choose the coins, people who do things quickly, people who do them slowly, in short, a sample of humanity.But what characterizes this writer is that she manages to infuse poetry even in the most banal things, in the most pedestrian things. One phrase stuck with me, the phrase says "the murmur of the supermarket at peak hour reminds me of the noise of the sea when you fall asleep on the beach," after a sentence like that, how can you not melt and fall madly in love with this writer?I finished that book very quickly. I immediately ran to the library to get another one and now I've just started reading A Frozen Woman, another of her books and this one is spectacular too. There's all the first part where she talks about the women in her life, and it's incredible because she was born in the 1940s, so she's older than me, but (and then she was born in France, I was born in Sardinia) but the way she describes these women, these atmospheres, these places, how she used to play as a child, I see myself a lot in it.Anyway, I'm immersed in reading and now I'll shoot all the books of this writer that I like so much and that I recommend you to pick up: quick reading, beautiful reading and it bring some poetry in your day.

Our adulthood in this late stage of capitalism is not the adulthood our parents knew; the markers of adulthood, if they exist at all, are, for many of us, vastly different than they used to be. But that doesn't mean we are not adults. And that doesn't mean that our businesses are somehow inferior even if we don't have all the obvious old markers of adulthood or our business do not have the same hallmarks as 'established' businesses. You are not inferior.Also, handbills on lamp posts, and the disorientation of walking into one's regular grocery store and finding that it has been rearranged. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gruen_transfer@Absentia_Nova on the Gruen Transfer and autistic support needs levels:https://www.tiktok.com/@absentia_nova/video/7146074010630081793?_t=8VxAZaXBDvm&_r=1full transcript and show notes here:https://dev.intensivesinstitute.com/episode/the-reality-of-adulthood

Dolly Alderton's popular memoir Everything I Know About Love has been adapted for the small screen, exploring the growing pains and confusion of your early 20s. Also out this week is Under the Banner of Heaven, another TV show following the current trend of ripped-from-the-headlines stories.
With people out and about normally again after two years of rolling lockdowns, they are no longer watching crap legacy media content. On this week's Tim's News Explosion I gleefully go through the media falls of the past week. ANZAC Day dawn service crowds at Melbourne's Shrine of Remembrance were back at full capacity after last year's shameful lockout of veterans. It is worth remembering how Australians were willing to sacrifice all the freedoms the ANZACs fought for during the past two years of lockdowns and restrictions. Scott Morrison invoked the war in Ukraine as an example of citizens fighting for freedom. Defence Minister Peter Dutton invoked the possibility of war with China that peace is not forever. The Greens believe that alarm over the Solomon Islands security pact with China is racist. Though Scott Morrison has used to race card claiming that Labor's attack ads against marginal Liberal MP Gladys Lui are racist. Gruen Transfer panelist Todd Sampson has triggered Antifa on Twitter for a photo with Blair Cottrell plus the revelation he is producing a new documentary for Network 10/Paramount Plus on hate and social media featuring Thomas Sewell. The White Rose Society and Tom Tanuki claim that platforming them because they are skilled 'media manipulators' will lead to more people agreeing with their views. Less than a month after its launch CNN Plus will be shutting down given only 10,000 people were willing to pay for more CNN. New owners Warner Bros. Discovery and new CEO Chris Licht wish to return CNN to hard news. News Corp's Talk TV launches in the UK with Piers Morgan its key signing for £50 million over 3 years. His new global show claims it will cancel cancel culture even though he has been fond of cancelling throughout his career. Netflix share price has plummeted after losing 200,000 subscribers this year, it has constantly raised its subscription fees though its programming quality has declined. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a bill that strips Disney of its special self governing status in Central Florida under the Reedy Creek Improvement Act. This was in response to Disney opposing Florida's new Parental Rights in Education Act. The Washington Post's Taylor Lorenz doxxed the creator of the Libs of Tik Tok Twitter account Chaya Raichik claiming this was newsworthy because its reposting of groomer educator videos inspired the Florida bill. In other news the Biden Administration intends to appeal a Federal Court ruling striking down its air travel mask mandate in an attempt to become even more unpopular. ABC Presenter Fauziah Ibrahim has 'taken a break' from on camera duties while the ABC investigates her Twitter lists with triggered drips as they were titled “Labor Trolls/Thugs and “Lobotomised Shitheads”.

Who do you hire to do your PR when you work in the media business? Well, if you trust the opinion of executives at Clemenger BBDO, Leo Burnett and other world-class agencies, you turn to Katy Denis. Katy is a PR specialist with 20 years experience, and the founder and CEO of Extollo, an agency that works hard to raise the profile of media professionals among their peers. Representing personalities like Todd Sampson of The Gruen Transfer, Laura Aldington of Havas Media and other big names in media and advertising, Katy has nailed the formula for thought leadership and building your visibility with a variety of tactics. I knew Katy would have a treasure trove of tactics that entrepreneurs and small biz owners could take advantage of in their own PR outreach. We talked through the art of strategic stalking (including how long Katy stalked her dream client before winning them over), and how she cements quality relationships with journalists. Spoiler alert: they’re just like other relationships - you give what you get! Katy also gives the lowdown on what thought leadership is and why it’s gold dust for businesses of all shapes and sizes that want to build their profile. Plus Katy shared her advice on how to dip your toe into the media space if you’re not comfortable yet, and I got to hear about how she brushed up against a Big Brother controversy early in her career. I know! For a smart, strategic and extremely well-reasoned approach to PR, Katy Denis is essential listening.

This week we jump into the wayback machine to talk a little bit about beer branding. This is a redux version of a conversation we had back in 2015 with consumer psychologist, Gruen Transfer panellist and award wining ad man Adam Ferrier. We've talked a little in recent weeks about the Reschs Appreciation Society and the power of brand and why brands have a deeper appeal than just products. This is a fascinating chat about that power and our ability to lie to ourselves about a product to create an image of who we want to be to ourselves and to others. We've referred to this podcast a few times of late and thought today was an opportune time to replay it. We apologise for the quality of the audio but insist it's worth the listen. The usual Beer is a Conversation episode will be out tomorrow. Our partners Radio Brews News is proudly presented by Cryer Malt. With over 25 years in the field, Cryer Malt are dedicated to providing the finest brewing ingredients to help brewers create the foundations of a truly excellent beer.

Welcome to today's episode of Decoding Purpose.The one thing that I love the most about hosting this podcast is that the kind of people who are attracted to purpose seems to have some innate characteristics. Attributes such as courage of conviction, an ability to embrace radical truth even if it's uncomfortable, and they are candid. Willing to share their stories wholeheartedly with a mission to inspire the kind of conversations - that inspire us all to create a better world. A more abundant and peaceful world for all of humankind. Every once in a while they are also handy strumming a guitar as a podcast warm up, and today's guest is no exception.As an entrepreneur and a change-maker, Ben Peacock ticks all the bells and whistles of success, the main difference being that his success as an entrepreneur is one that is measured by world changing ideas and epic levels of social impact. Years ago Ben set an intention to help create 100 ideas that make the world a better place, and since then he has made the target of 100 ideas seem like small fry!Ben is an author, cancer survivor and a founder of do-good agency, Republic of Everyone who are a world leading brand, sustainability and innovation company. Ben and his team have worked on award winning social change campaigns including Tails for Whales, the even more award-winning Garage Sale Trail, the fledgling Grow It Local and the Greens ad made famous by the Gruen Transfer. At the heart of Ben's philosophy is that acts are far more powerful than ads...and I can attest to the fact that Ben is a man grounded in taking action.Along with discussing Bens incredible professional journey, we also explored Ben’s more vulnerable life experiences. In reflecting on Bens cancer journey we talked about how he healed, we explored the dialogue around talking openly about men's issues such as testicular cancer and we discussed how Ben’s cancer acted as a catalyst for the urgency of Ben’s purpose. A part of that purpose was writing a book in which he titled Lessons My Left Testicle.In today's conversation Ben I discussed:Why purpose is in the execution opposed to the idea.The role of radical truth and integrity in purpose.We looked at the evolution of purpose in business over the last decade.We explored the shared value, collaboration and the creation of collective impact.We discussed ego vs contribution in our missions to change the world.We broke down the a -z process of taking an idea and making it into a movement.And much, much more.So kick back, follow Bens lead, warm up with a few strums on the guitar, grab your coffee, or a beer from a carbon negative brewery if you feel inclined - and yes this kind of beer does exist! Whatever your drinking get ready to go for a ride with the one and only Ben Peacock. This is decoding purpose. Welcome to the podcast Ben.

Have and build your resilience. QUOTES “All the domains were taken. One day we were just messing around mixing our names together and decided that yep, that would do.” -Nick “The barrier to entry back then was quite different and much higher.” -Nick “When it’s your baby, your business…it’s really hard to give it up.” -Nick “Giving parts of your business to someone else who may or may not be as good at it as you, frees you up to do what you’re really good at.” -Tim Connect with Nick from Nimic Productions here: www.nimic.com.au Connect with Jemimah and Tim on Facebook here: www.facebook.com/leveluppodcast Connect with Jemimah here: www.facebook.com/jemimahashleighau www.jemimahashleigh.com www.instagram.com/jemimahashleigh Connect with Tim here: www.facebook.com/winmoreclients www.winmoreclients.com.au www.instagram.com/winmoreclients

‘They shriek, they rage, they cheer, they despair, they exult, they scream, they laugh, they cry!’ News Limited blogger Tim Blair was not talking about State of Origin spectators, but his poll to find ‘this nation’s most unhinged hysteric’ from among his list of ten ‘frightbats’, a group of opinionated female journalists and commentators. The frightbats themselves mostly laughed off the insults, and competed in good humour to get the most votes. But what does it mean if women can still be dismissed as crazy, emotional, or “hysterical” when they express strong opinions or simply raise their voices? Three women of ideas discuss being trolled, insulted and not taken seriously, and the long history of demonising women with opinions. Elizabeth Farrelly is a weekly opinion columnist for the Sydney Morning Herald, an Associate Professor in the Australian Graduate School of Urbanism at UNSW and author of several books, including Glenn Murcutt: Three Houses (1993), Blubberland (2007) and Caro Was Here, her first fiction, for children (2014). She won many awards for writing and for design, and has a background in science, philosophy, literature, city planning and architecture. Clementine Ford is a freelance writer, broadcaster and public speaker based in Melbourne. She is a Writer and Contributor for Daily Life and writes on feminism, pop culture and social issues. Jane Caro is a renowned journalist, broadcaster and author. She has appeared on ABC television's Q&A, as a regular panelist on The Gruen Transfer, and at the Festival of Dangerous Ideas. Jane has worked in the advertising industry and lectured in advertising at the School of Humanities and Communication Arts at the University of Western Sydney.
The global conversation about women’s lives has opened up, women’s voices are heard more than ever before, and social media has brought a huge range of public conversations to life. But when you can reach more people, there are more people to offend, and discussions are often curtailed by capital-O Outrage; a Twitter mob can descend on an unwitting provocateur in minutes. There are still some things that women want to say at home, at work and online that they know to keep to themselves if they don’t want to be trolled, or written off as whingers. Talking about the most intimate fears and insecurities, accusations of “playing the gender card”, “first-world problems”, jokes made ‘too soon’ – why are some topics still too hard to talk about, and what are women losing by keeping them to themselves. Randa Abdel-Fattah is a Muslim of Palestinian and Egyptian heritage. She is a writer, passionate human rights advocate, and a spokesperson on issues relating to Palestine, Islam or Australian Muslims. Her articles have been published in The Australian, The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald and Le Monde (France). Larissa Behrendt is a Eualeyai/Kamillaroi woman. She is the Professor of Law and Director of Research at the Jumbunna Indigenous House of Learning at the University of Technology, Sydney.

She has appeared on ABC television's Q&A, as a regular panelist on The Gruen Transfer, and at the Festival of Dangerous Ideas. Jane has worked in the advertising industry and lectured in advertising at the School of Humanities and Communication Arts at the University of Western Sydney. Mia Freedman is the co-founder and Content Director of the Mamamia Women's Network.

When we decided to take some time and look at political advertising in this weeks show the decision to invite former liberal leader Dr John Hewson seemed like a brilliant move. Unfortunately it seemed Dr Hewson had already been booked for the Gruen Transfer so instead we have Zac Martin from Pigsdontfly.com (and some other agency that I cant recall the name of right now) join us on the show. Zac has come a long way since his first appearance on the Gen Y Marketing podcast and I think you will agree his level of contempt for us is more in line with what it should be.

Don't think advertising messages work on you? Let me ask this - where did the 'diamond engagement ring' tradition begin? Jon Casimir, co-creator of the Gruen Transfer, has a reason for deconstructing the advertising world...
