“Regardless of whether it's Trump or anybody else in the White House, we should expect something quite significant to be going on in terms of the United States' relationship with the rest of the world.”Amol Rajan speaks to Helen Thompson, Professor of Political Economy at Cambridge University, about a new era of global power play. In this conversation, she traces the roots of the re-birth of US expansionism back to the 19th century, and America's early presidents. She also explains how the dynamics of geopolitics are tied to the control of resources, in particular oil.Professor Thompson is an expert on the history of globalisation who has taught at Britain's Cambridge University for more than 30 years. Her current research looks at the geopolitics of energy, and the long history of this century's global disruptions.Thank you to the Radical team for its help in making this programme.

The Māori have had a presence in New Zealand for at least 800 years. For much of that time, they lived in imperfect harmony with the natural environment, developing a social and cultural system distinctly their own. But the age of European exploration from the 17th century changed all that. Over the centuries, their traditional claims to lands were eroded, and their population became dwarfed by that of the settlers, until the voices of activists grew loud enough to challenge the new status quo. So, who were the first Māori? Just how did the arrival of Europeans impact them? What sparked their revival, and what challenges do they still face? This is a Short History Of The Māori. A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins.

I am excited to connect with Dr. Lara Briden today! She is one of my favorite naturopathic doctors and the author of the bestselling books Period Repair Manual and Hormone Repair Manual. She has 25 years of experience in women's health, and she currently has consulting rooms in Christchurch, New Zealand, where she treats women with PCOS, PMS, endometriosis, perimenopause, and many other hormone- and period-related health problems. Dr. Briden is a wealth of information! She brings a fresh perspective and a positive voice to the health and wellness space, and I often recommend her book, Hormone Repair Manual, to my clients and patients. Today, she and I dive into her background as an evolutionary biologist and discuss how she became passionate about supporting and advocating for women throughout their lives. We talk about perspectives on aging, what the second puberty (perimenopause) is, and the impact of histamine, mass-cell granulation, and estrogen. We discuss fat redistribution in middle age and the loss of insulin sensitivity. We speak about how using alcohol impacts brain health, sleep, the gut microbiome, appetite, cravings, and hinders estrogen metabolism. We also touch on ways to address dysfunctional uterine bleeding in middle age, explain how to advocate for your health, how middle age impacts the nervous system, and the role of inflammatory foods, including dairy. I hope you enjoy our discussion as much as I did! Stay tuned for more! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Dr. Briden discusses her background as an evolutionary biologist and how she changed her career to become an advocate for women's health. Many women fear the aging process. Dr. Briden and I discuss women's mindsets and perspectives on aging. Why is there so little awareness about perimenopause? Dr. Briden defines menopause and discusses the timeframe in which some women experience perimenopause symptoms. How can ongoing hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause, or second puberty, increase the likelihood of women having issues with a histamine response? Dr. Briden talks about fat redistribution in middle age and explains why women need to stay on top of it from a metabolic perspective. How can our modern-day lifestyle make the metabolic shift women experience in menopause even more challenging? Dr. Briden talks about natural treatments and hormone therapies to lighten the flow of the extremely heavy periods that some women experience during perimenopause. Dr. Briden discusses the connection between cow dairy and an inflammatory reaction in some people. Women need to understand what happens in their bodies when they have either a partial or a full hysterectomy. Dr. Briden talks about estrogen and brain health. How does alcohol affect the body? What are the best options with the fewest side effects for hormone therapy for women?

One does not simply print water-based in New Zealand, but Chris & Jon aren't afraid of a challenge. With nothing but love for their craft in their hearts, these two Kiwis started as modest hometown printers, and journeyed their way to becoming heads of an international printing operation. Topics of discussion include: international shop visits, importing their inks, how water-based printing helped differentiate themselves from their competition, landing their first client, organic growth, small town living, elevated packaging, custom socks, promo products, working with international manufacturers, developing tech and fulfillment capabilities, company culture, employee benefits, business coaches, specializing staff roles, expanding into Australia, and a most unfortunate courier disaster.
About Patrick Van der Burght: Patrick van der Burght is an international expert in ethical persuasion, influence, and decision-making. He is a business partner of Dr. Robert Cialdini—author of Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion—and a founding member of the Cialdini Institute, the only active, licensed Cialdini Institute worldwide.A certified influence specialist and trainer across Australia and New Zealand, Patrick has spent over two decades teaching professionals how to persuade ethically, accelerate results, and build stronger relationships across sales, leadership, marketing, and team environments. He is also the co-author of How to Hear “Yes” More Often (2024) and host of the podcast Ethical Persuasion Unlocked.In this episode, Jennie and Patrick Van der Burght discuss:The seven universal principles of persuasion derived from Cialdini's researchThe distinction between genuine reciprocity and gated lead magnets as rewardsThe roles of liking and unity in building rapport and a sense of shared identityThe use of social proof and authority to enhance credibility and influenceThe impact of consistency and scarcity on ethical decision-making and behavior Key Takeaways:Ethical persuasion is not about clever wording; it is about aligning your message with how people naturally make decisions.Clarity reduces friction. When buyers clearly understand what happens next, they feel safer saying yes.Trust is built not through volume or urgency but through consistency, credibility, and honesty over time.Authority works best when it is demonstrated rather than declared, especially in relationship-based sales models like direct selling.When persuasion principles are applied with integrity, decisions feel easier, faster, and more empowering for everyone involved.“Information is not really power. Application skill is power, and I would argue that you need confidence to go along with it.” — Patrick Van der Burght Connect with Patrick Van der Burght:LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/patrick-van-der-burghtFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/patrick.burght/ CONNECT WITH JENNIE:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/badassdirectsalesmasteryInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/badassdirectsalesmastery/Website: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/Show: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/blog/YouTube: COMING SOON!LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/badassdirectsalesmastery/Email: jennie@badassdirectsalesmastery.com Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

And so let’s say you make some New Year’s resolutions or you’re in the middle of a transition like retirement and you’re in the middle of that change and you think to yourself, this shouldn’t be so hard and I should have figured this out by now. But what those thoughts do is they actually only tighten that knot. So if we’re looking at getting unstuck, you know, the way that I teach is we have to have this willingness to soften, to stop pushing, to actually sit with what’s here, even if it’s uncomfortable. And from what I’ve learned and what I’ve seen, this is really the ground of transformation. Because when we allow ourselves, Joe, just to be exactly where we are with all the uncertainty, with all the doubt, with all the longing, then we begin to loosen the grip on all the old habitual ways of being. And our heart opens. And in that openness, something new can emerge. So I invite you all to not push through, but just to rest in that middle place and let the aspiration be there, but also let the discomfort be there. And let yourself almost be held by this knowing that the moment that you’re in right now is actually part of the path.” On Mindfulness…for Type As “And this energy is very, very powerful, but it can also become a kind of armor and it can protect Type A people from seeing themselves, from vulnerability, from uncertainty. So, if I was talking to a Tai A personality who was a skeptic, I would first of all say it is mindfulness is amazing for Type A personalities. And what if you didn’t need to fix anything right now? What if there was nothing to improve, but just something to notice? Because at the heart of mindfulness, we’re not looking to change our nature or our personality. What we’re doing is we’re inviting you to become more intimate with yourself, to sit beside that aspect of yourself that strives and maybe ask, what am I afraid of and what am I avoiding? Because often as a Type A personality, what we’re avoiding is the discomfort of being with ourselves as we are. But if we can soften that resistance, even for a breath, even for 10 minutes a day, I tell you, something extraordinary happens. And we begin to feel so much more alive, more connected to ourselves. The endless, amazing results of meditation, our relationships change. We just deal with everything differently. We become more whole. So it’s really good for us to understand, which is why mindfulness is used in so many, you know, big companies around the world, is that mindfulness isn’t an enemy of ambition. It’s really a way to return to the ground beneath your striving, to be able to see that ground clearly, to feel deeply, to live more fully, which is why I totally believe it’s a superpower.” On Why Happiness is an Inside Job “The biggest misconception that I know is that people believe that happiness comes from outside of themselves. And that is such a mic drop moment to understand that happiness doesn’t. Happiness is an internal job. And the wonderful thing about that is it means that we’re in control of it. It means that if you want to be happier, you don’t have to be rich. You don’t have to be powerful. You don’t have to be the most beautiful person in the world. I remember some years ago going to Las Vegas to hear Lady Gaga sing. And she was doing these kind of acoustic jazz Tony Bennett style concerts. It were really incredible. She was getting paid a million dollars a gig, Joe, and it was extraordinary. Here she is. She’s super wealthy. She’s beautiful. She’s successful. She’s powerful. And it was shocking for her to talk about how incredibly unhappy she is. So I think that’s one of the biggest things we need to understand is that all the things that we’re sold to believe will make us happy actually don’t. Because if they did, we would be able to look around the world to so many of the people that have all of them. And we can wonder why they’re not happy. So when we begin to understand that happiness is an inside job, then we actually have the incredible power to take control of it. So I think that that is probably the biggest misconception, but also the most powerful thing about it. And so that means that we need to learn to work with the thing that drives our happiness and our suffering, which is our mind. And if we can learn to work with our mind, then we can change our whole experience of the world.”

It's Monday, Let's raise a glass to the beginning of another week. It's time to unscrew, uncork or saber a bottle and let's begin Exploring the Wine Glass! The statistics all state the wine consumption is decreasing. According to Statista, wine consumption has dropped 6.75% since 2019 and the International Organization of Vine and Wine says that wine consumption has dropped 2.6% just this last year. In fact, global wine consumption has reached its lowest point since 1996. Enter the world of de-alcoholized wine. Fact.MR has predicted that non-alcohol wine will increase its market substantially in the next ten years; from 2.57 billion to 6.94 billion dollars.

Many of the features on the Moon are named for astronomers. So are features on Mars and other planets and moons. And hundreds of asteroids are named for astronomers as well. But you won’t find many features named for astronomers here on Earth. Quite a few streets and schools are named after them. But when it comes to major features, the list is pretty thin – especially in the United States. One of the few is Mount Langley, a 14,000-foot summit in California. It’s named for Samuel Pierpont Langley, who was a long-time director of the Allegheny Observatory. To see more features named for astronomers, though, you need to head south – to Australia, New Zealand, and even Antarctica. In Australia, for example, a river and an estuary are named for Thomas Brisbane, an early governor of the state of New South Wales. And so is the city of Brisbane, the capital of Queensland. In addition to his government duties, Brisbane was an astronomer. He set up Australia’s first major observatory. In New Zealand, several peaks in a large mountain range are named for astronomers, including Galileo and Copernicus. And an entire range is named for Johannes Kepler. In Antarctica, many features are named for James Ross, an early explorer. But Ross himself named several features for astronomers, including Cape Smyth and Mount Lubbock – down-to-earth features named for men who studied the stars. Script by Damond Benningfield

Welcome back to EV News Daily, and welcome to a special bonus edition: an interview today with a fascinating guest.One big question is holding back EV adoption: is this battery any good? My guest today, Nathan Gore-Brown, is helping to establish the standard to answer that question.Nathan brings 30 years of experience across three continents in the automotive world. Nathan has identified a flaw in the market. Buyers can't verify the health of used batteries, so they're hesitating, and that gap is stalling the market. Today he's talking specifically about Australia and New Zealand, but we can paint those brushstrokes all around the world.In 2025 he founded his new business, Test EV. By bringing independent testing from specialists Aviloo and taking that to Australia and New Zealand, he's securing partnerships with some of the industry's biggest players, and helping to set the rules for how EVs are valued and sold.He also serves as the Queensland director of the Australian Electric Vehicle Association and has developed national training programs for dealers. His work spans policy, training, fleet decarbonisation, and now the very infrastructure that makes EV purchases trustworthy. I think it's fair to say Nathan is the expert in replacing guesswork with real data!Find out more: testev.coNathan's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathan-gore-brown-1403a622?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BldzKJOGCR1mf3osZhSa%2BPA%3D%3D

Traitors US S4 Ep 6 Recap Welcome to RHAP’s coverage of ALL the Traitors iterations from around the world, including New Zealand, Australia, and Canada. The Traitors US is a high-stakes reality competition set in a secluded castle, where contestants must work together to complete challenges and earn a prize pot—while rooting out the secret traitors hidden among them. Today, Rob Cesternino and Pooya discuss episode 6 of Traitors US Season 4. Rob Cesternino and Pooya break down Episode 6 of The Traitors with a focused look at the strategy, shifting alliances, and fallout from one of the season's most dramatic round tables. They analyze the near three-way tie vote, the growing tension between Lisa and Colton, and how Ron Funches' emotional defense reshaped the night's outcome. Rob and Pooya discuss Rob Rausch's controversial decision to vote against Lisa, questioning whether it was a calculated move or an emotional misstep. They explore how that vote affected the balance within the turret and why the traitors appeared more divided than ever. The conversation also examines Johnny Weir's attempt to form a voting block, why it failed to hold, and what that means for future banishments. The hosts take a close look at Colton's aggressive gameplay, including his public accusations, attempted “hostage” strategy, and escalating feud with Lisa. They debate whether his approach is helping expose a traitor or simply painting a target on his own back. Rob and Pooya also preview the upcoming “murder in plain sight” twist, discussing the cursed amulet, possible targets, and how much information the faithful may actually receive. They consider which players are most vulnerable and how this twist could reshape the game. With detailed analysis of voting patterns, relationships, and emerging power dynamics, this episode focuses on where the game stands at the halfway point—and who is best positioned to survive what comes next.

In 2000, Christine Lundy and her seven-year-old daughter Amber were brutally hacked to death in their New Zealand home. Their husband and father, Mark Lundy, had a seemingly watertight alibi: he was over 90 miles away.But that didn't stop the New Zealand courts from convicting him. Twice.With a controversial case built on junk science, shifting timelines, and a microscopic speck of what prosecutors called ‘brain tissue' (but might have just been lunch), the Lundy saga was New Zealand's answer to Making a Murderer.Was an innocent man wrongfully convicted?

It's a sporting year that won't include Ross finishing the mountain bike race he planned to, and we talk briefly about goals, burn-out and knowing when to cut your losses!Then we indulge a passion of the pod - talent ID. This after New Zealand's teen sensation Sam Ruthe broke another national record, this time in the 800m. But how often do these world class middle distance teens kick on and improve? The answer may be surprising, but it does reveal how fraught the talent prediction is, and we discuss whether talent is easier to spot in some sports than others?Staying on the philosophical theme, Gareth's recent forays into the principles of fitness and his attempts to simplify fitness, have led to fascinating conversations with our Science of Sport Supporters about the potential role of Artificial Intelligence in coaching and performance. Will AI take over from coaches? Can you plan and execute an effective training programme using nothing but AI prompts? Do we need human coaches when the knowledge of the whole world is at our disposal? Who has successfully capitalized on the AI hype, and who has contributed to the growing pile of "AI slop" in the world of sport and sports science? We discuss.And finally, one of our listeners and a three time guest, Dr Jamie Whitfield, is looking for participants in his latest research trial - if you're in and around Melbourne, here's your chance, details in the pod, links in the show notes!01:50 Who Tires first?
