Artificial intelligence is no longer a future trend for brokers – it's already being tested in real businesses, on real clients, and in real workflows.  How this will affect business, competition, client expectations, or compliance remains to be seen.  In this week's Broker Daily Uncut, Julian Barnes is joined by Finni's Eva Loisance and Costa Arvanitopoulos to explore how brokers are using AI to save time, improve efficiency, and streamline everything from policy research to client communication. The trio also discuss where AI is delivering genuine value, where it still falls short, and why the most successful brokers may be those who learn how to work alongside the technology rather than compete with it. They also unpack falling auction clearance rates, shifting market sentiment, and the growing interest in SMSF lending as investors look for new opportunities in a changing market.

This week marked the start of a new era for the Finance Brokers Association of Australia (FBAA), with the association appointing its first new CEO in 20 years, alongside a new chair.

In this episode of What's Making Headlines, The Adviser commercial content writer Ben Squires is joined by Broker Daily senior journalist Julian Barnes to discuss the latest leadership changes at one of Australia's leading broker associations. They also discuss: How brokerages are underutilising AI by not using it as a strategic thinking partner. The latest educational resources being launched to support brokers. A wave of new technology hitting the market, including Pepper Money's application tracker and Aussie's new app. And much more!

As the broking industry continues its push towards bigger teams, greater scale, and increased automation, can smaller brokerages still compete? In this week's Business Accelerator, Broker Daily journalist Julian Barnes and broker coach Jason Back explore the advantages small brokerages can bring to the market, from agility and faster decision making to stronger client relationships and niche expertise. The duo also unpack the challenges of running a lean operation – including hiring, leadership, and capacity constraints – and discuss how technology and AI are helping smaller businesses punch above their weight without sacrificing service. From building high-performing teams to avoiding the growth traps that catch many business owners, this episode is packed with practical insights for brokers looking to compete with the industry's biggest players.

Australia's property market is changing – and not just because of interest rates, house prices, or government policy. New data suggests property investing is increasingly being concentrated among older Australians, while younger generations face growing barriers to entering the market. In this episode of Broker Daily Uncut, Julian Barnes is joined by Finni's Eva Loisance and Costa Arvanitopoulos to unpack the widening investor generation gap, the impact of negative gearing reforms, and what falling auction clearance rates could signal for the months ahead. The trio also discuss low-deposit lending, the outlook for interest rates, and whether today's aspiring investors can still follow the same property wealth-building playbook as previous generations.

As brokers compete in an increasingly crowded market, how do you build referral partnerships that create sustainable growth — not just one-off deals? In this week's Business Accelerator, Julian Barnes and Jason Back unpack how referral relationships are evolving from transactional lead sharing into long-term strategic alliances built on trust, communication, and shared client outcomes. The duo also explore why becoming "referable" first, niching your expertise, and focusing on fewer, deeper partnerships can help brokers stand out in today's market.

With proposed changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax rattling investors across Australia, the property market is entering a period of major uncertainty. From falling borrowing power to shifting investor strategies, brokers are already seeing the effects ripple through lending, property demand, and portfolio planning. Broker Daily's Julian Barnes is joined by Finni's Eva Loisance and Costa Arvanitopoulos to break down how the federal budget reforms could reshape the investment landscape, including the impact on servicing capacity, lender policy changes, and why more investors are now turning towards SMSFs, commercial property, and alternative lending structures. The trio also unpack declining auction clearance rates, the possibility of rising rents, concerns around investor pullback in key growth markets like Perth and Brisbane, and whether the government's housing policies could end up worsening Australia's ongoing supply and affordability crisis.

With the federal budget sending shock waves through the property market, brokers and investors are scrambling to understand what sweeping changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax could mean for borrowing power, property values, and the future of investing in Australia. Broker Daily's Julian Barnes is joined by Finni's Eva Loisance and Costa Arvanitopoulos to unpack the fallout from the proposed reforms, including collapsing investor servicing, shifting lender policy, and the growing move towards SMSFs, commercial property, and alternative lending strategies. The trio also examine falling auction clearance rates, the risk of rising rents, and whether the government's housing agenda is solving affordability or making the supply crisis even worse.

As the mortgage broking industry stands at a genuine inflection point, how can business owners distinguish between passing tech fads and the fundamental shifts that will define the next decade? In this week's Business Accelerator, Julian Barnes and Jason Back dive into the "moving target" of success in 2026. With the fifth industrial revolution well underway, the conversation explores how brokers can shift from AI window shopping to deep integration so that they can meet the changing expectations of a new generation of borrowers. The duo explore the tension between high-speed automation and the irreplaceable value of human connection, asking whether brokers are at risk of "automating away" their greatest competitive advantage. As the industry moves from an adoption phase to an integration phase, this episode provides a roadmap for brokers to poke, prod, and "fail fast" with new tech without losing the heart of their service proposition.

Yann Martel didn't think anybody would read Life of Pi when he first published it. 25 years later, his story of a teenage boy and a tiger adrift in the ocean still captivates readers, and Yann says his books are like his children — he loves them all equally. Yann's new novel is called Son of Nobody. In the book, a Canadian scholar's life changes when an Iliad-like epic poem is newly discovered. When he travels across the world to study it, he uncovers threads that are far more personal than expected. Son of Nobody is an exploration of identity, myth and class, and it's a fresh take on a piece of literary history. This week Yann joins Mattea Roach to reflect on his past work, his interest in mythology and why humans should create, no matter what. Liked this conversation?

This Day in Legal History: Jackie Robinson Signs with DodgersOn April 10, 1947, Jackie Robinson signed his contract with the Brooklyn Dodgers, marking a pivotal moment in both sports and legal history. At the time, racial segregation was deeply entrenched in American society, including in professional athletics, where informal but rigid “color lines” excluded Black players. Robinson's signing, orchestrated by Dodgers executive Branch Rickey, directly challenged this exclusionary system. Although no court decision mandated integration in baseball, the move carried significant legal implications by undermining accepted norms of segregation.Robinson's entry into Major League Baseball occurred just years before landmark civil rights rulings, including Brown v. Board of Education, which declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional. His success on the field helped shift public opinion, demonstrating that integration was both possible and beneficial. This cultural shift played an indirect but meaningful role in supporting broader legal challenges to segregation. At the same time, Robinson faced hostility, threats, and discriminatory treatment, highlighting the gap between evolving social practices and existing legal protections.The federal legal framework addressing discrimination was still underdeveloped in 1947, with major statutes like the Civil Rights Act of 1964 nearly two decades away. Robinson's breakthrough contributed to the growing momentum for such legislation by exposing the injustice and inefficiency of segregated systems. His experience also illustrated the limits of private action in achieving equality without formal legal enforcement mechanisms. Over time, his role became part of a larger narrative demonstrating how social change can precede and influence legal reform.Robinson's signing stands as an example of how non-judicial actions can shape the development of law by altering public attitudes and expectations. It underscores the interplay between private institutions and constitutional principles, particularly in the realm of equal protection. The event remains a key reference point in discussions about the relationship between cultural progress and legal change in the United States.A California federal judge has ordered another evidentiary hearing in the ongoing dispute between Epic Games and Google over proposed changes to an antitrust injunction governing Android app distribution. U.S. District Judge James Donato expressed frustration that each revised proposal introduces new elements, warning the parties that the court will not continue reviewing endless iterations. The latest proposal follows Epic's earlier trial victory, where a jury found Google had monopolized the Android app marketplace.Although the companies claim their revised plan better aligns with the original injunction, the judge raised concerns about potential anticompetitive effects. In particular, he questioned Google's idea of a “registered app store” program, suggesting it might create barriers for rival app stores. He also flagged possible issues with fees that could undermine competition. As a result, the court will require more detailed explanations before deciding whether to approve the changes.The dispute stems from litigation filed in 2020 challenging restrictions that limited alternative app stores and required developers to use Google's billing system. After Epic's win, the court imposed an injunction requiring Google to open its platform to competitors. While the revised proposal keeps some pro-competition measures—such as allowing alternative billing and preventing exclusionary deals—it has drawn mixed reactions.Supporters argue the new terms still promote competition, but critics, including Microsoft and advocacy groups, say the changes weaken the original order. They highlight concerns about new fees and provisions that could make it harder for competitors to enter the market. Some also argue that shifting key terms into private agreements reduces judicial oversight. Judge Donato indicated this upcoming hearing will likely be the final step before a decision, emphasizing the need to resolve the matter without further revisions.‘Not Going To Keep Doing This,' Judge Warns Epic, Google - Law360The U.S. Department of Justice has launched an investigation into whether the National Football League is engaging in anticompetitive practices that could harm consumers. While the exact scope of the probe is unclear, it appears to focus on how the league distributes broadcasting rights for its games. Concerns have grown among regulators, lawmakers, and broadcasters about the increasing shift of sports content from free television to paid streaming platforms.Critics argue that this trend makes it harder and more expensive for fans to watch games, with some estimates suggesting it could cost over $1,500 annually to access all NFL broadcasts across multiple services. The NFL has defended itself by noting that most of its games are still available on free broadcast television, particularly in local markets. Meanwhile, the Federal Communications Commission has also begun reviewing the broader migration of live sports to subscription-based platforms.The issue has drawn political attention, including a request from Senator Mike Lee for federal agencies to examine whether the NFL's longstanding antitrust exemption should still apply. That exemption, established by a 1961 law, allows leagues to bundle and sell broadcasting rights collectively.US Justice Department opens probe into NFL over anticompetitive practices, source says | ReutersA federal judge in Washington, D.C. ruled that the U.S. Department of Defense failed to comply with a prior court order protecting journalists' access and reporting rights at the Pentagon. U.S. District Judge Paul L. Friedman found that the department's revised media policy effectively recreated the same unconstitutional restrictions it had already been ordered to remove. The dispute arose after The New York Times and reporter Julian Barnes challenged rules limiting journalists' ability to seek information from government sources.Although the Pentagon changed the wording of its policy, the judge said the new language still prohibited routine journalistic practices, such as requesting non-public information. He rejected the government's argument that the revisions fixed the issue, calling them a clear attempt to sidestep the court's ruling. The opinion also criticized a provision that presumed journalists acted improperly if they offered anonymity to sources, noting that this is a standard practice in reporting.The judge further found that the Pentagon undermined the order by restricting reporters' physical access, including closing a designated workspace and requiring constant escorts inside the building. He dismissed the government's security justification, stating that existing screening procedures were never removed and that the new limitations appeared designed to weaken press access.Ultimately, the court ordered the government to restore prior conditions and comply fully with its ruling. Judge Friedman emphasized that the policy violated First Amendment protections by chilling press freedom and limiting the flow of information to the public. He warned that suppressing political speech and controlling media access are hallmarks of authoritarian systems, underscoring the constitutional importance of an independent press.‘Mark Of Autocracy': Court Says Pentagon Defied Press Order - Law360US judge says Pentagon violated court order to restore press access | ReutersA U.S. trade court is considering whether President Donald Trump's 10% global tariff on imports is lawful. The tariffs, introduced in February, are being challenged by a coalition of 24 states and small businesses, who argue that the policy exceeds presidential authority and improperly bypasses Congress. The case is being heard by a three-judge panel at the U.S. Court of International Trade.The Trump administration defends the tariffs as a valid response to ongoing trade deficits, relying on Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. This provision allows temporary tariffs during serious balance-of-payments issues. However, the challengers argue that the law was intended for short-term economic emergencies, not persistent trade imbalances, and that the administration is stretching its meaning.The dispute comes shortly after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down many of Trump's earlier tariffs imposed under a different statute, ruling he had overstepped his authority. Plaintiffs claim the new tariffs are an attempt to work around that decision using a different legal justification.US trade court weighs legality of Trump 10% global tariff | Reuters This is a public episode.

Julian Barnes says his new novel is his final. It's called Departure(s), and it's about two people who fall in love when they're young and then meet again decades later. The story is told through the perspective of a writer named Julian … who has a lot in common with the author himself. The book was released on Julian's 80th birthday, and after four decades of writing and a Booker Prize win under his belt, Julian is finally putting down the pen. This week, he joins Mattea Roach to reflect on his literary legacy, why he feels less afraid of death and his recent secret wedding. Liked this conversation?

Happy Easter! Mark shares a special Easter message from John 20. Upon the cross, we see the compassion of God, but on Easter, we see the power of God's love. John 20:1-2, 11-18 www.thevineaustin.org REFLECTION QUESTIONS: 1. What was Easter like for you growing up? 2. Interact with that opening line from Julian Barnes' novel. “I don't believe in God, but I miss him.” Do you think that is how people really feel? How does that longing for God get displayed? 3. What from the sermon has stayed with you- either encouraging, confusing, or confronting? 4. Read the scripture passage above and consider Mary's experience. What stands out to you today? 5. A significant aspect of this story is about Mary's temporary inability to see Jesus. Why do you think she couldn't recognize Jesus? Are you experiencing anything similar in your life? 6. Why do you believe hearing her name allowed Mary to see? 7. Easter began while it was still dark. What is the darkness you are feeling today that needs resurrection hope? End in prayer. Ask for the ability to see Jesus - full of resurrection power. Ask that Jesus would give you courage and wisdom to continue Jesus' pattern - drawing circles around all who hunger for mercy and grace.

Anna and Geoff discuss the 2026 Women's Prize for Fiction longlist, including Flashlight, The Correspondent and Audition.  Some of the other long-listed books feature writers as characters, which gets us talking about turn-offs in novels.   Our book of the week is DEPARTURE(S) by Julian Barnes. This is the final book by the Booker Prize-winning author. It is a novel about a couple who reunite later in life, with authobiographical elements from Barnes' own life, or it could be a memoir containing a short story.  There is also Proust, philosophy and some observations on memory. Described as 'elegant' (The Times) and 'unmistakably Barnes' (Observer), it got us thinking:   Where is the line between memoir and novel? Is DEPARTURE(S) a love story?

The novelist, essayist and critic Julian Barnes talks to John Wilson about his career and formative cultural influences. One of the most acclaimed and distinctive British writers of his generation, his early novels, including Metroland, A History Of The World In 10 and a Half Chapters, and Flaubert's Parrot, established his reputation for blending fiction, factual biography and philosophical reflection. Julian Barnes won the Booker Prize in 2011 for The Sense Of An Ending, and the same year won the prestigious David Cohen Prize for Literature, awarded for a body of work. A famous Francophile, he was given the title of Commander of the Order of Arts and Letters, one of France's highest cultural honours in 2004. He has said that his latest book, Departure(s) will be his final novel.Producer: Edwina Pitman

In the summer of 1998, eighty-two-year-old New York socialite Irene Silverman disappeared from her Manhattan townhouse without a trace. Silverman's friends were immediately concerned, as it was completely out of character for Irene to leave town without telling anyone. Coincidentally, on the same day Irene Silverman disappeared, authorities in New York arrested Sante Kimes and her son, Kenny, on a charge of check fraud. Unbeknownst to investigators, these two events were directly linked.In the wake of the arrest of Kimes and her son, investigators discovered a number of links between the mother and son con artists and Irene Silverman that would not only lead to the discovery of Silverman's body, but also to a years' long crime spree that included everything from check fraud and impersonation to arson and murder. In the annals of American crime, it's rare to find a series of violent crimes committed by a woman. And among those women, it is rarer still to find one so brutal, cunning, and manipulative as Sante Kimes.ReferencesAssociated Press. 1985. "Couple charged with slavery."

Julian Barnes and Ian McEwan are widely celebrated as two of the finest writers of their generation. Along with Salman Rushdie and Kazuo Ishiguro, they were included on Granta's prescient Best Young British Novelists list in 1993 and have gone on to write some of the most memorable novels of the past three decades. In January 2026 they came together to discuss the book that Barnes says will be his last, Departure(s). It follows a man named Stephen and a woman called Jean who fall in love when they are young and again when they are old. Barnes and McEwan will draw on the themes of the book to discuss topics including philosophy, art, the slipperiness of memory, the passage of time, mortality and grief.This was a rare opportunity to hear two of the most celebrated voices in contemporary British literature discussing their craft and reflections on life.

Liz Moore's bestselling book, ‘Long Bright River,' was set in a troubled Philadelphia neighborhood where she'd worked on a photo essay. “My own family has a long history of addiction. I was kind of emotionally drawn back to the neighborhood over and over again because of that,” she tells Dave Davies. The resulting thriller about a policewoman searching for her missing sister was made into a series on Peacock. Moore's latest book, ‘The God of the Woods,' where a child goes missing from a remote children's camp, will be adapted to a Netflix series.Also, we hear from one of England's most acclaimed writers, Julian Barnes. He has a new book, which he says will be his last. It's called ‘Departures.' He spoke with Terry Gross. Maureen Corrigan reviews George Saunders' new novel, ‘Vigil.'Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Acabo de leer el último libro de Julian Barnes, último hasta la fecha pero también último en el sentido definitivo, pues con él cuelga los hábitos. El libro, que lleva el revelador título de 'Despedidas', se ocupa -como tantos de los suyos- de la memoria. Y se inicia hablando de un fenómeno neurológico, que responde a las siglas de IAM, y que consiste en que, en determinadas circunstancias, una sensación activa un recuerdo, y este recuerdo activa otro, disparando una reacción en cadena que despierta una cascada de recuerdos similares. Imagina que hueles en café de la mañana y, de pronto, se te encadenan los miles de cafés de máquina aguachirlados que te has embaulado a lo largo tu vida. El fenómeno es bonito si pensamos en Proust, ya de mayor, que mordisquea una magdalena y eso abre una esclusa de recuerdos, desplegando ante sus ojos todas las magdalenas que comió en su vida hasta alcanzar esa primera magdalena que probó siendo un niño. Pero también puede ser odioso: imagina que oyes por la calle una canción de verano y, de repente, se te vienen a las mientes King Africa, Georgie Dann, la Macarena y el Tiburón, todo de golpe.Leyendo a Barnes, me preguntaba qué pasaría si experimentáramos un IAM y nos pasaran por la cabeza todas las versiones que se han ido dando a cuento del accidente ferroviario durante los últimos días: primero renovación integral, luego renovación por tramos, que si avisó Adif, luego que si avisó Renfe… Si me dan a elegir, más que una magdalena de Proust, preferiría una magdalena tratada con sedantes que hiciera borrar la memoria de estos días.A veces, como dice Dante en la Divina comedia, la memoria sucumbe a tanto exceso, así que recordemos lo justo.

durée : 00:03:26 - Le Regard culturel - par : Lucile Commeaux - L'écrivain anglais Julian Barnes publie, comme il en a l'art, un récit hybride entre roman d'amour, récit de soi et essai sur la littérature – en forme de testament contrarié, fantaisiste et grave à la fois.

Booker Prize-winner Julian Barnes has a bibliography that would keep a reader happy for many months, even years, but with mention that his latest book, Departure(s), might be his last, we were determined to speak with him about his approach to fiction, the passage of time, and the very special relationship between writer and reader.

The Man Booker Prize-winning writer says his new book, ‘Departure(s),' will be his last. He spoke with Terry Gross about blending genres, moving through grief after his wife died, and the fallibility of memory. TV critic David Bianculli reviews the new series ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.' Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
