    Timestamps - (10:45) Moms Who Murder A study by Brown University showed that from 1976 to 2007, on average, there were 500 cases of filicide a year in the United States. Filicide is the deliberate act of a parent killing their own child. Police were called to a home in Florida on May 30, 2025 for a welfare check on Ra'myl Pierre.   School officials were worried about his absence.  When authorities arrived at the home, they found Ra'Myl's mother, Rhonda Paulynice, acting ‘oddly'.   Ra'myl was found dead and wrapped in a blanket in the house.  It is alleged that Rhonda killed her son in an attempt to exorcise him of evil spirits. On May 26, 2025, neighbors in Bundaberg, Queensland in Australia called police after they allegedly witnessed Lauren Flanigan in the front yard with her deceased daughter, Sophia.  Lauren is alleged to have stabbed her daughter to death.   She was taken into custody.   Lauren suffered a ‘medical emergency' in her cell and was taken to hospital where she passed away on 1 June, 2025.   A full investigation into her death has commenced.

    I'm certainly not educated well enough to say what exactly has led to the dramatic reductions in global testosterone levels, be it plastics, sugars, antibiotics, processed chemicals, or whatever else. However, my guest today is a hormone replacement expert, so we'll find out together!   Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts.  My guest today is Susie Bell. Susie has over three decades of experience helping patients, many of whom struggle to keep their natural hormones in check as the years go on. For women, it's widely acknowledged to be an issue around menopause; but for men, it can happen in your late teens! That's a shock, but so are the many messages that you'll hear actually explained when we give the topic room to explain itself. Thank you so much to everyone in Japan who made the first international tour such an absolute blast! I've never felt 16 days go by so quickly, and I feel I could have spent another hundred days without issue. Hopefully I get to do even more of those big tours in the coming months and years.  Tokyo, Nikko, Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, and Okinawa: Seriously, THANK YOU so much!  ( Https://Www.GetWellWithSusieBell.Com )   ( https://static1.squarespace.com/static/627d7bbb8f061a4300985c07/t/663cf6a8f150ed30ef08d0bb/1715271336480/Susan+Bell_Memoir_Forward.pdf )  Let's fix our imbalances without shame!  As mentioned in the interview, I do know many young men with low Testosterone levels, and that includes myself. Before my father passed away, he and I compared our levels to find that they were almost identical despite being 25 years apart.    In ranking news... May wrapped up while we were on tour: 1. The United States, with California, Wisconsin, and Oregon at the top; sorry Ohio.  2. England of the United Kingdom.  3. Australia, with Queensland well over New South Wales.  4. Canada, with Ontario just barely beating British Columbia.  5. South Africa, just beating Ireland.  That's it for this week!

    How long do you have? In all seriousness, we love dads, and millennial dads are absolutely raising the bar on what it looks like to be a father. This chat is about society, and why dads seem to get praised for their parenting while mums are just… plain old parenting (and complaining about it on their hot mum walks, IYKYK). Our listeners had a lot to say on this one when we opened the polls up – 96% of you thought that dads do get more praise for parenting. Is it because of deeply entrenched traditional gender roles? Is it a general lack of care for mothers and motherhood? Is it mums being cast as the ‘default' parent who are *just” doing what's expected of them? Is it stereotyped language around dad's being ‘hands on' or ‘babysitting' their own kids? Listen and hear from us, as well as you, our listeners, as we break this one down together. Studies/articles mentioned in this chat:Grattan Institute Research on parenting dynamics in early years.

    Episode 18: What if the catastrophe has never ended?

    Radio Reversal Podcast

    Play Episode Listen Later Jun 9, 2025 65:00


    G'day friends & comrades,Welcome back to another episode of the Radio Reversal Podcast. Late last week, I shared an episode called “Refusing to pinkwash a genocide” which looked at some inspiring examples of local, autonomous organising against the normalisation of Zionist settler colonialism and genocide in Gaza. Today, I'm coming back to the core of this series on crisis, disaster & collective futures to ask: how can we think about the crisis when the crisis is permanent? As of today, it's 610 days since the Israeli Occupation Forces began their most recent genocidal siege on Gaza. It's more than 76 years since the Zionist occupation of Palestine began with the events of the Nakba: massacres, displacements and the ethnic cleansing of huge swathes of Palestinian land. It's 237 years since the first British penal colonies - prisons - were established on the homelands of the Gadigal, Dharug and Dharawal peoples of the Eora Nation. And it's just over a week since Kumanjayi White, a young Walpiri man who lived with complex disabilities, was killed after being restrained by off-duty cops in Mparrtwe, Alice Springs. And then, just a few days ago, we heard reports of a second Aboriginal death in police custody in the Northern Territory in as many weeks. Kumanjayi White's death in police custody is the 597th Aboriginal death in custody since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody handed down its findings in the 1990s - many of which, as Senator Lidia Thorpe has consistently pointed out in Parliament, are yet to be implemented. So as we look back at the unending crisis conditions of colonialism, what does it mean for how we look ahead? What does it ask of us - to think about these current atrocities in the context of a much longer, ongoing crisis?To dig into this, we'll begin by sharing an interview between Han and our dear friend and intellectual guiding light, Dr. Jamal Nabulsi, who provides a bit more historical and political context for the events of the Nakba and their continuation into the present. We then turn to two speeches from the recent Nakba commemoration here in Magan-djin, including Remah Naji and Binil K. Mohideen. We then turn towards this continent, to think about the significance of commemorating the 76th anniversary of the Zionist occupation of Palestine from the vantage point of 237 years of ongoing colonial occupation of this continent. To help us see the linkages between colonialism in Palestine and on this continent, we turn (as we so often do!) to Darumbal and South Sea Islander writer and academic, Dr. Amy McQuire. We're so excited to be sharing a sneak peak of Amy's opening remarks from the plenary panel discussion of the Activism for Palestine conference, hosted by Justice for Palestine Magan-djin over the weekend. We were lucky enough to head along to record a couple of the conversations that happened as part of the conference to share with anyone who couldn't attend in person, to help inform our collective struggle going forwards. We'll be packaging those up and releasing them here in the coming weeks, as part of a community resource pack coming out of the conference. For now, we just wanted to share this short excerpt from Amy as a way to understand the deep linkages that connect the current genocidal violence in Palestine with the ongoing war against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people on this continent. For more content drawing these links, check out these brilliant Blackfulla-Palestinian solidarity resources compiled by Anna Cerreto and the Institute for Collaborative Race Research. I want to quote a section from Amy's speech at length here, because it really helps to clarify the connections between colonial violence on this continent and in Palestine: (In an article I was reading recently) the author mentioned that the Mt Morgan mine was once the largest gold mine in the world. Mt Morgan, as many of you would know, is on the land of the Gangalu, and is just outside Rockhampton, near my own Darumbal homelands.So I went down a bit of a rabbit hole in reading about this – and it led me to another fact. By 1907, the mine had produced $60 million worth of gold. And so one of the original owners of that mine, and the largest shareholder, a man by the name of William D'Arcy, was made enormously rich on the stolen resources of Gangulu people. He then used some of that money to invest in the oil fields in Persia, where his company – which was at the time called the Anglo-Persian Oil Company - struck oil in 1908.Now why am I telling you this history?Because that Anglo-Persian Oil Company later become a company by the name of British Petroleum, which we know today as BP. And so when I found this out, the first instinct I had was to google the words BP and Israel.BP owns and operates the Baku-Tbilsi-Cehan pipline, which Azerbaijan uses to supply Israel with crude oil. And this oil is used to fuel Israel's military operations. This oil is sent through this pipeline to produce JET FUEL for the f-35 planes that are dropping bombs on the men, women and children in Gaza. The pipeline supplies 28% of Israel's crude oil imports.Not only that, BP operates in West Papua. This is from the Global Atlas of Environmental Justice: “In Bintuni Bay of West Papua, BP's Tangguh LNG project has been under public scrutiny for alleged connections with excessive surveillance and violence enacted by security forces. Indigenous Papuans have been relocated, and selective compensation has led to tensions and divisions among Papuan residents…” And this is just some of the horrific things BP has been accused of doing in occupied West Papua.So the genocide of Gangulu, and of First Nations tribes in Queensland (because the gold mine brought in waves of settlers to neighbouring lands, like my Darumbal homelands) is intrinsically connected to the current day atrocities not just in Gaza, but in West Papua.And it is not just these extractive and exploitative industries, this outright GREED and WEALTH and FORCES OF ENVIRONMENTAL DISTRACTION are connected to each other, but also that they have BENEFITED ENORMOUSLY from these connections. If we wonder why some people can look at these images of horror and terror enacted upon the bodies of Palestinian people and are comfortable with it, it is because they look with their eyes blinded by their own wealth, their own greed.Their version of humanity is tied to the pursuit of profit; their version of humanity is a process of gardening; a cultivating of space in which Palestinians, West Papuans and Indigenous peoples are made to disappear, or as we know happened in this country, are made to become less than human, are seen as FLORA and FAUNA.But in thinking about these connections of imperialism, and greed, I also thought about what these connections tell us about both why and how we fight for Palestine, and West Papua.We fight because not only are these colonial violences connected, and not just in the past, but very much in the present, but also because are connections are Indigenous peoples are much more powerful than any connections that they have. If their networks of violence and greed are connected, then the opportunity to rupture those connections in one part of the world, means a HUGE BLOW for imperialism everywhere.Which is why solidarity – the building and grounding of connections – is so threatening to them. As Amy explains, the connections between Indigenous peoples globally form a rich ecosystem, with roots intertwining across the globe. Colonial, capitalist, patriarchal states try to prune this unruly mass; weeding out dissent and resistance wherever they find it. Our work as activists is not to try to cultivate or control or regulate this vast ecosystem, but rather to learn to understand ourselves as part of it; to allow our struggles to grow and flourish together. We have been reminded of these deep connections this week in a particularly devastating way. On the anniversary of the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis in 2020, many of us heard the tragic news that a young Walpiri man from the community of Yuendumu had been killed in an interaction with off-duty police officers in a supermarket in Mparntwe, Alice Springs. Kumanjayi White was a vulnerable young man who is mourned by his family and community. He died after being restrained by off-duty police officers in an interaction that is eerily similar to the murder of George Floyd. The police officers who restrained him have yet to be stood down by the NT Police, and no announcements have been made regarding an inquiry into his death. All across the continent, communities are mobilising to demand that the institutions and individuals who are responsible for his death face accountability. Kumanjayi White's family, include his Grandfather, the venerable Elder and activist Uncle Ned Hardgraves, have renewed their calls to disarm police across the Northern Territory. Almost four years ago, the Yuendumu community began the karrinjarla muwajarri campaign to demand a police ceasefire across the Northern Territory in response to the fatal shooting of Kumanjayi Walker by Constable Zachary Rolfe in 2019. They wrote:We do not want any more reports or inquiries that are not acted on. We already hold the answers and strategies we need. We do not want any more consultations with governments who do not listen to us. We demand our self determination, our rightful decision making authority, and our resources to be restored to us. This is a list of our demands. What we are calling for is karrinjarla muwajarri, a police ceasefire. Indefinitely.To get across the ongoing campaign to disarm, defund and dismantle the police across the continent, in the last part of this episode, I catch up with Wanjiriburra and Birri Gubba activist and film-maker Sam Watson to talk about some of the demands made by Kumanjayi White's family, and how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities around the country are mobilising in response to his death. Gatherings like this are happening all over the country, so if you're not based in Magan-djin, check out this post for links to events happening all across the country. The community of Yuendumu and the family of Kumanjayi White are also looking for financial support so that family can travel from Yuendumu to Mparntwe to demand answers and mourn their loss. Please give generously to this fund so that the family and community can mourn the loss of Kumanjayi White with dignity. We're ending this week's episode with a devastating and vital speech at this Saturday's rally from Gungarri woman and academic Dr. Raylene Nixon. Raylene shares some of her own family's experiences navigating the coronial inquest into the death in police custody of her beloved son, Stevie-Lee Nixon McKellar. We'll be returning to the rest of the speeches from this protest in a future series, but we wanted to finish with Raylene's words this week because they offer a vital and timely reminder to push as hard as we can for the family of Kumanjayi White right now, and to take this opportunity to put as much pressure as possible on all of the institutions and individuals who are responsible for his death. All in all, there's some very big and heavy content today, so please take care of yourselves in the midst of listening through it all. For me, what I'm holding onto amid the horror and grief of this moment is the shimmering reminder that just as the threads of violence and repression criss-cross the globe, shared by colonial powers and capitalist forces internationally, so too do lines of resistance and dissent. Families from so-called Australia to Gaza, from Tamil Eelam to Kashmir, from West Papua to Sudan find common ground in the knowledge that the state acts with violent impunity; that all we have is one another. Mothers of those disappeared by repressive state forces come together to organise and strategise for truth and justice; finding common cause in prison waiting rooms and at community protests and in the futility and violence of official inquiries. There are whole constellations of people across the globe who will not forget those who have been disappeared, maligned, incarcerated, or disbelieved. As always, our work is to find each other and build a network strong enough to dismantle the regimes of repression bit by bit, place by place, until these empires, like all before them, eventually fall.Yours in solidarity,Anna(Radio Reversal Collective) This is a public episode.

    This week Monique chats with Avril Fazel about living in regional, rural, and remote areas as a neurodivergent person. Avril lives on the lands of Kuungkari, Bidjera and Inningai peoples, between the rural towns of Blackall and Tambo in outback Queensland. She identifies as intersectional feminist with lived experiences in mental illness and neurodivergence, and her social discourse is influenced by her backgrounds in education, community work, and being a local grazier. We hope you enjoy this beautiful chat as much as we did! Monique and Avril cover: How Avril thinks about neurodivergence and the importance of curiosity. Avril’s path to understanding her own neurodivergence and to diagnosis at 50. Barriers to services when living rural and remote. The proportion of people living regional, rural, and remote experiencing disability, and why neurodivergent folk might gravitate to these areas. Avril’s experience of community in her local area, and balancing solitude with community engagement. Avril’s experience of the nature and sensory-based components of living rurally. How Avril’s deep interest in understanding different ways of learning impacted her teaching. The importance of transparent communication and modelling self-understanding and self-regulation strategies when teaching kids. Avril’s current special interests.

    How Cannibalistic Tadpoles Could Curb Invasive Cane Toads

    South American cane toads were brought to Australia in 1935 to help eradicate native beetles that were destroying sugar cane crops. The toads didn't care much for the beetles, but they did spread across the coast of Queensland and beyond, with no natural predators to stop them. Their own deadly toxin devastated local reptiles along the way, and they now number over 200 million.Invasive biologists have long tried to curb Australia's cane toad population. The newest approach uses CRISPR gene-editing technology to create cannibalistic “Peter Pan” cane toad tadpoles: tadpoles that don't fully mature and instead feast on the tens of thousands of eggs that the toads produce.How was this approach developed, and how do these researchers think about making a potentially massive change to the ecosystem? Biologist Rick Shine, who has led the effort, joins Host Flora Lichtman to discuss it. Later, science journalist Elizabeth Kolbert talks about her experience reporting on similar monumental efforts to control nature—and what they say about us.Guests: Elizabeth Kolbert is a staff writer at The New Yorker and author of Under a White Sky: The Nature of the Future (Crown, 2021). She's based in Williamstown, Massachusetts.Dr. Rick Shine is a professor of biology at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia.Transcript is available on sciencefriday.com.

Now here's your hosts, Allen Hall, Joel Saxum, Phil Totaro, and Rosemary Barnes.  Well, welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. I am Allen Hall and I'm here with Rosemary Barnes, who's fresh from. Sweden, she just traveled all around the world to record this episode. Uh, Phil Totaro is out in California and Joel Saxum is up in the cold north of Wisconsin. And we, we've been just discussing off air. All the craziness has been happening in the wind industry. And I, I have to admit, you know, I thought last week was. Insane. Well, we just, uh, put it on steroids. So not only are we canceling a lot of projects in the United States currently, we're all, we're starting to be cancel [00:01:00] them on Australia and over in Queensland. The Queensland Deputy Premier, uh, has used his ministerial powers to refuse planning approval for the moonlight range when Farm Near Rock Hampton. Now I, and I'm sure I murdered that name Rosemary, so please forgive me, but it was gonna have 88 turbines in about 450 megawatts of capacity, enough to power about a quarter million homes in Australia and tied with, it's about 300 construction jobs and 10 permanent positions to make that wind farm go. But there's was like a two month public consultation period that happened. And during that consultation period, about 80 per 90% of the local residents, and when I say local residents are about 150 local residents, uh, replied back and were concerned about some of the, the known people that are gonna be there because it's gonna like double the population, right. And 300 construction workers in a, an area of 140 people, 150 people. Uh, and based on [00:02:00] that boom, perhaps the, the project was canceled. What is happening in Queensland that we need to understand that projects just kinda get wiped away like that with 140 people, 150 people chiding in.  Rosemary Barnes: So what's happened is that the Queensland government, the Queensland State Government, it was labor for quite a while and they had, uh, renewables targets and net zero targets and stuff like that. And then, um, the government changed last year, so now there's a, a liberal government, which means conservative in Australia. They're in power and they wanted to change their planning regulations. But what is a bit weird is that they wanna do it retroactively. So they've changed the rules in April, and now they're going through projects that have already been approved to see if they meet the new rules rather than the rules at the time that they were approved. But the weirdest thing is that I'm pretty sure that this specific wind farm that they revoked, they were the ones to approve it shortly after [00:03:00] they came into government. They approved this wind farm and then they changed the rules a few months later, and then they did a new round of community consultation. Um. And they say that 85% of local residents were, um, you know, in favor of reassessing. The issue is that now we're at this stage of the energy transition where, you know, we're up over 40% renewables across Australia. Um, that's primarily wind and solar.

    Queensland's regional suburbs are booming, offering exciting opportunities for strategic long-term investors. Smart Property Investment's Phil Tarrant and Pure Property Investment's Paul Glossop return with a fresh edition of the FAST 50 report, revealing the top suburbs for property investment in 2026. Queensland features prominently in the 2026 FAST 50 report, with 15 of the top suburbs for capital growth located in the state, including nine in regional areas, reflecting a decline in urban appeal. Despite Queensland's strong presence in the list, Paul does not personally recommend any Queensland suburbs this year, citing caution around regional volatility. Suburbs like Park Avenue and Koongal near Rockhampton have posted an impressive 12-month growth of 29.1 per cent and 34 per cent, respectively. However, regional areas carry higher risks due to smaller populations and economic bases, making a long-term strategy essential. Paul and Phil emphasise the importance of long-term fundamentals over short-term trends when evaluating these locations. Download your FREE copy of the FAST 50 2026 report here.

Deep Dive: Whistleblowers are warning that Australia’s mental health system is overwhelmed, underfunded, and unable to meet growing demand, and it’s putting lives at risk. While demand for support grows, some patients with severe mental health needs have been left waiting days for care, while others are being turned away entirely due to a lack of resources and staff. While mental health accounts for 15 per cent of the country’s disease burden, second only to cancer, it receives just five per cent of the country’s health budget annually.

Survivors will be eligible for individual payments of $85,000, with the scheme to be open by the end of the year. Under government policies, more than half of all Aboriginal people in Western Australia were taken from their families - or are related to survivors. The Healing Foundation has been advocating on behalf of Stolen Generations survivors. In this episode of Weekend One on One, the group's CEO, Shannan Dodson, told Biwa Kwan, it means a lot to survivors to receive this acknowledgment - and it advances the healing process.

    106. The Stuck Stick Glider Emergency with Terry Fagg

    In this episode of I Learned About Flying From That, host Rob Reider speaks with Terry Fagg from Queensland, Australia, who shares a compelling story about a significant equipment failure during a solo glider flight in 1979. Terry was just 15 years old at the time, with about 30 total flying hours. He was flying an ASW15, a high-performance competition glider known for being state-of-the-art but also having some quirks that made it "not real easy to fly". While climbing to altitude in a strong thermal, Terry noticed the stick was progressively getting further forward until it became stuck full forward. This left him unable to push forward to descend and flying dangerously close to a stall speed at around 7,000 feet. Finding himself in "deep deep strife" with virtually no pitch control, Terry spent about two hours at altitude, floating in thermals and figuring out how to fly the glider in this precarious state. Standard stall recovery procedures were impossible with the stick stuck forward, and radio assistance was unavailable. He managed to return to his gliding club's field and executed a challenging "long low slow circuit," making a difficult landing by basically "flopping in" close to the ground. Initially criticized by the duty instructor for his landing, the severity of the emergency was revealed when, while examining the stick, the damaged elevator link strut – a metal control rod that had failed due to fatigue – finally snapped off completely, showing the elevator was no longer connected. Terry later learned that he was the only person known to have successfully landed an ASW15 with this specific failure; other instances had resulted in serious crashes. The incident profoundly taught him at a young age that flying, despite being enjoyable, is also a "dangerous business" where unexpected events can occur. He learned the critical importance of trusting his gut feeling when something feels wrong and adhering to aircraft manual procedures. This episode is brought to you by Amco Insurance.

    The Surfer’s Journal presents Soundings with Jamie Brisick

    Born in 1944 in Queensland, Australia, Bob McTavish started surfing at age 12 on a 16-foot plywood paddle board. Best known as a surfboard shaper, he started working with Sydney's biggest board builders at age 17, then became a major player in the shortboard revolution. He worked closely with George Greenough and Nat Young, helping Young design “Magic Sam,” the thinner, lighter, shorter longboard that would win Young the 1966 World Championships in San Diego, California. In 1967, McTavish produced the first vee bottom, nicknamed the “Plastic Machine.” Shortly thereafter, he and Young were seen tearing it up at Honolua Bay in Paul Witzig's The Hot Generation. In the late '70s, McTavish wrote several essays for surf magazines talking up the long- and mid-range boards he was shaping. In 2009, Bob penned Stoked!, his memoir. Now in his eighties, a father of five and a grandfather, McTavish is still actively shaping and surfing. In this episode of Soundings, McTavish sits down with Jamie Brisick inside his factory to talk about his prolific shaping career, stowing away to Oahu, Magic Sam, The Hot Generation, Dick Brewer, and his most memorable moments in the water.
