On this episode of Fostering Change Podcast, Rob Scheer is joined by Temple Lentz — nonprofit CEO, local elected official, and debut novelist — for a thoughtful conversation about what happens when the systems designed to protect vulnerable families don't always work the way they're supposed to.Temple is the author of the novel Not Quite Home, which explores the cracks in America's social service safety net. While the book is fiction, its themes are grounded in real-world experience. Having worked both inside nonprofit leadership and as an elected official, Temple brings a rare systems-level perspective to the conversation.Together, Rob and Temple discuss the gap between policy and lived reality, how well-intentioned systems can sometimes cause unintended harm, and why storytelling may be one of the most powerful tools we have to illuminate the need for reform.Episode Highlights• Why systems meant to help families often fall short• The unintended consequences of well-intentioned policies• What people misunderstand about how social service systems actually function• Why fiction can humanize policy failures more effectively than reports and data• How civic engagement and storytelling can open doors to meaningful reformAbout the GuestTemple Lentz is a nonprofit CEO, local elected official, and debut novelist. She earned a BA from the University of Chicago and a master's degree in Organizational Leadership from Claremont Lincoln University. Her writing has appeared in outlets including the Portland Mercury, Vancouver Business Journal, Live Wire! Radio, New City Chicago, and the Windy City Times.Her first novel, Not Quite Home, examines the human impact of systemic gaps within America's social safety net.Connect with Temple
Today we talk about Leslie Willis, best known as Livewire, who hates superman, has electric powers, looks really cool, and sometimes does crime. What we were up to this week: Briar watched The People's Joker and a lot of Dimension 20: Unsleeping City Olivia hasn't read any comics this week but is excited for Moonstar (2026) #1 and has also been rewatching Hannibal Thanks to Victoria Watkins for our icon!

There are two things you want out of a good income stock - a solid yield and the ability to grow that yield over time. In this episode of Buy Hold Sell, Livewire's Chris Conway hosts Peter Gardner from Plato Asset Management and Sean Roger from Perpetual to run the ruler over five dividend stocks with better-than-market yields and expected dividend growth. We ran a screen that filtered companies with a market cap above $1 billion, offering a one-year forward yield of more than 4% (better than the market) and projected dividend growth based on consensus earnings forecasts. The screen threw up some interesting names across consumer discretionary, financial services and transport, but are these stocks worth adding to your watchlist, according to the pros? Find out here.
The yield on the ASX has now been below 4% for quite some time, but that doesn't mean there's no income opportunities for Australian investors ready to do the work. In this episode of Buy Hold Sell, Livewire's Chris Conway hosts Peter Gardner from Plato Asset Management and Sean Roger from Perpetual to discuss whether we're in a structurally-lower income environment or whether it's just a lull. They also reveal the sectors where they're still finding reliable income and what they're avoiding right now. Finally they each share one ASX income stock idea the rest of the market might be missing for 2026.
Strong dividends have always been one of the ASX's big calling cards, so it might surprise you to learn that Australian dividends actually shrank 6.7% to $63.5 billion in 2025, according to the Capital Group Global Equity Study. Now reporting season has thrown up some solid dividend results from Telstra, Woolworths, BHP and Evolution Mining to name a few, and our biggest income stocks - namely the banks and miners - are delivering strong returns. So will 2026 be a return to form for Aussie income stocks, and which are the companies that should be top of your radar? In this episode of Buy Hold Sell, Peter Gardner from Plato Asset Management and Sean Roger from Perpetual join Livewire's Chris Conway to give their ratings on some of the most-tipped income stocks for 2026 from our readers and share a pick of their own.

The first big week of reporting season was full of fireworks with some wild swings in some of the biggest companies on the ASX. Livewire's Chris Conway spoke with Henry Jennings from Marcus Today to discuss some of the important results and how investors reacted.
ETFs have become the building blocks of modern portfolios, offering instant diversification, liquidity and low-cost access to everything from global blue chips to niche thematics. But with a veritable supermarket of options now available on the ASX, choosing the right ETF is no easy task. In this episode, Livewire's Tom Stelzer is joined by Daniel Kelly of Viola Private Wealth and Adam Dawes of Shaw and Partners to give us their verdicts on some of the ETFs most tipped by Livewire readers for 2026. We cover ETFs from global quality and cybersecurity, to Australian high yield, copper miners and the world's largest listed companies. As always, each guest also brings one ETF idea of their own for the year ahead offering two very different ways to position for 2026 - one taking advantage of the beaten-down ASX tech sector and another set to benefit from a geopolitically charged environment. This episode was filmed Wednesday 11th Febraury 2026

The latest DC Spotlight episode for the week of February 4, 2026 features Jace and Rocky breaking down a strong slate of eleven new DC releases while reflecting on a rare week free of industry-wide bad news. The discussion is led by the return of The Nice House by the Sea #7, with James Tynion IV and Álvaro Martínez Bueno resuming the series after a long hiatus and using character guides and carefully integrated recap to maintain narrative momentum, followed by Batman: Static Beyond #3, which gains traction as Miguel Mendonça's art and a more action-driven focus push the Elseworlds concept forward. Batgirl #16 marks a turning point in Cassandra Cain's arc, delivering resolution to the Unburied storyline, expanding the Lazarus mythology, and setting up a return to Gotham, while DC KO: Night Fight #4 closes its mini-series by exploring Batman's exile from the tournament, alternate futures, and the consequences of loss before re-inserting him into the larger DC KO event. The episode also covers Batman #6, emphasizing character fallout and the status shift for Tim Drake, Poison Ivy #41, which advances Pamela Isley's path toward running for mayor through a jail-cell-centered narrative that keeps her agency intact, and DC KO: Boss Battle #1, a crossover-heavy one-shot pairing DC characters with external properties in a high-concept escalation of the tournament. Additional discussion includes JSA #16 continuing its Year One focus on early team dynamics, Absolute Green Lantern #11 deepening Al Ewing's dense mythology with escalating threats and spectrum lore, Absolute Superman #16 introducing an Absolute Hawkman origin while advancing Lex Luthor and Brainiac plot threads, and Superman: Chains of Love Special #1, a Creeper- and Livewire-focused story that rounds out the week, before the hosts rank their favorites and preview the looming impact of DC KO #4.
