In this deeply personal episode, Dr. Jo Braid shares a conversation with her mother that fundamentally changed how she views career success and professional identity in healthcare. Through her mother's journey from university lecturer to teaching retirees, Jo explores how healthcare professionals can avoid the dangerous trap of tying their self-worth to professional achievements. Drawing on research from the Mayo Clinic and Stanford's WellMD Center, this episode examines the "arrival fallacy" - the belief that reaching the next career milestone will bring lasting fulfilment - and offers evidence-based strategies for reframing work as a means to support your life, not define it. Perfect for healthcare workers and helping professionals seeking to prevent burnout while maintaining meaningful careers, this episode provides practical tools for identity diversification and sustainable excellence.Resources:https://drjobraid.comwww.instagram.com/burnoutrecoverydrwww.linkedin.com/in/drjobraid I acknowledge that I create this podcast on the traditional lands of the Wiradjuri people, who have been the custodians of this land around Orange, New South Wales, for thousands of generations.

In the mid-1860s, the goldfields and bush tracks of New South Wales were ruled by one of Australia's most notorious outlaw groups: the Ben Hall Gang. Led by the charismatic and deeply divisive Ben Hall, the gang carried out a daring string of robberies that humiliated police, terrified settlers, and turned bushranging into front-page news. But this was no romantic Robin Hood tale. As pressure mounted and the government introduced brutal new laws to crush the outlaws, the violence escalated. Betrayals followed, loyalties fractured, and the line between legend and reality blurred beyond recognition.In this episode, we trace the rise and fall of the Ben Hall Gang — the robberies, the manhunts, the myths, and the bloody end that cemented their place in Australian history. It's a story of mateship, desperation, and a colony determined to make an example of its most famous criminals.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weird-crap-in-australia--2968350/support.

In this episode, Dr. Jo Braid explores why healthcare workers and helping professionals often struggle with gratitude despite doing meaningful work. She breaks down the neuroscience behind how chronic stress and burnout literally rewire our brains, making it harder to experience positive emotions like appreciation. Dr. Braid explains the concept of "toxic gratitude" - when societal pressure to be thankful becomes another source of stress - and introduces evidence-based micro-gratitude practices designed specifically for overwhelmed helpers. Learn why your inability to feel grateful isn't a character flaw, but a predictable neurobiological response to sustained occupational stress, and discover practical strategies to rebuild your gratitude pathways without adding more pressure to your already stressed system.Resources:https://drjobraid.comwww.instagram.com/burnoutrecoverydrwww.linkedin.com/in/drjobraid I acknowledge that I create this podcast on the traditional lands of the Wiradjuri people, who have been the custodians of this land around Orange, New South Wales, for thousands of generations.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an fichiú lá de mhí na Nollag. Is mise Eoin Ó Seachnasaigh.Maraíodh cúig dhuine dhéag, paiste deich mbliana d'aois san áireamh, in ionsaí sceimhlitheoireachta ar Thrá Bondi in Sydney na hAstráile Dé Domhnaigh seo caite. Is iad an bheirt atá ainmnithe leis an sléacht Sajid Akram, a bhí 50 bliain d'aois, agus a mhac Naveed Akram, 24 bliain d'aois. Maraíodh an Akram ba shine ar an láthair agus gortaíodh an mac go dona sular tugadh chun ospidéil é. Scaoil an bheirt acu urchair ar shlua a bhí bailithe ar an trá chun ceiliúradh a dhéanamh ar fhéile mhór na nGiúdach, Hanukkah. D'éirigh le fear darb ainm Ahmed al-Ahmed an t-arm a bhaint ó dhuine de na gunnadóirí, agus dúirt príomh-aire New South Wales gur mhair go leor daoine mar thoradh ar an gcrógacht a léirigh sé.I ráiteas a d'eisigh Pobal Giúdach na hÉireann, chuir siad a gcomhbhrón in iúl dá ngaolta agus dá gcairde thar lear san Astráil atá ag fulaingt mar gheall ar na hionsaithe. Dúirt Coimisinéir na nGardaí, Justin Kelly, go dtabharfaí tacaíocht agus cosaint bhreise don phobal Giúdach in Éirinn. Bhí agóid i Londain oíche Dé Céadaoin, lasmuigh d'Aireacht Dlí agus Cirt na Breataine, i gcoinne an diúltaithe cead a thabhairt do stailceoirí ocrais dul go hospidéal. Bhí an teannas idir na póilíní agus na hagóideoirí le brath agus breis is míle duine bailithe chun tacaíocht a léiriú do Qesser Zuhrah, 20 bliain d'aois, agus Amy Gardiner-Gibson, 30 bliain d'aois, atá ar stailc ocrais anois le breis is daichead a sé lá agus ag fulaingt go dona. Gabhadh beirt ar an láthair agus baineadh frith-agóideoir amháin amach as an slua. I mí Iúil, d'fhógair Rialtas na Breataine go raibh cosc i bhfeidhm ar an ngrúpa Palestine Action. Ó shin i leith, tá beagnach 2,500 duine gafa ag na póilíní agus tá seisear priosúnach ar stailc ocrais anois mar agóid i gcoinne mí-úsáid chumhachta an stáit. Faoi dheireadh, tar éis iarrachtaí fada ó bhaill den phobal agus ó pholaiteoirí ar nós Zarah Sultana agus Jeremy Corbyn, a chuir brú ar na húdaráis, thug otharcarr Zuhrah go dtí an t-ospidéal chun cúram éigeandála a fháil. Tá an tAire Dlí agus Cirt, David Lammy, fós ag diúltiú labhairt le teaghlaigh na stailceoirí.Tá sceideal cuimsitheach fógartha ag TG4 don Nollaig agus réimse leathan de scannáin, de chláir faisnéise agus de chláir cheoil acu, chomh maith le rogha mhór mhillteach d'ábhar do pháistí, buíochas le Cúla4.

Australia suffered one of the deadliest massacres in its modern history on Sunday when two gunmen opened fire on a Jewish celebration at Bondi beach in Sydney. At least 16 people died, including one of the alleged gunmen, with more than 40 wounded. The victims include a 10-year-old child, a Holocaust survivor and a London-born rabbi. The alleged gunmen behind the attack are a father and son, who are suspected of using legally obtained firearms to commit the massacre. One of the suspects, Naveed Akram, 24, was known to New South Wales police and security agencies. The Australian prime minister, Anthony Albanese, is facing questions about gun law reform and security failings as the country reels from the attack.
