Why Australia changes its clocks, what the evidence says, and why daylight saving remains so divisive.Daylight saving time returns for parts of Australia, reigniting a debate that never seems to end. This episode explores why the practice began, why some states reject it, what research says about sleep and mental health, and why calls to scrap or expand it continue.In this episodeHow a wartime fuel-saving measure became part of life in parts of Australia.Why Queensland, Western Australia and the Northern Territory have resisted daylight saving time.What researchers found when they examined claims about mental health effects.The evidence linking clock changes to sleep disruption and circadian rhythms.Why farmers, religious communities and border residents see the issue very differently
New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania and the ACT are the only states and territories that observe daylight saving time. Western Australian voters have repeatedly rejected proposals to introduce it, while the Northern Territory remains on standard time year-round. So, does changing the clocks affect mental health and sleep?#sbsaudiopodcast

As his 37th birthday approaches Stirling Osland has already garnered a very sound reputation among NSW country based trainers. He's one of only four trainers to use the facilities at the historic Armidale racecourse, and couldn't be happier. With rarely more than twenty five horses in work Stirling has maintained a healthy strike rate over the past decade. He also manages to complete the breaking and education of around twenty youngsters every year. The young trainer has the happy knack of knowing when one of his horses has sufficient talent to warrant a trip to Sydney or Brisbane. From a limited number of runners he's saddled up five TAB Highway winners. Stirling's story to date makes for an interesting podcast. He begins by talking about a very hectic recent schedule. Stirling says he enjoys the quiet environment of the Armidale training precinct as do most of his horses. He talks of the available training facilities and his own involvement in trackwork riding duties. Stirling speaks of his 100 acre property just outside Armidale where he lives with his family. The farm also doubles as a spelling venue for most of his horses. The trainer pays tribute to wife Courtney and two young daughters Heidi and Clare. He says combining racehorse training and the breaking of yearlings makes for a pretty busy life. Stirling talks of his longtime association with owner/breeder Stuart Ramsey. He greatly values the support of a larger than life character. He remembers childhood days on the family property at Tamworth where he and two brothers were rarely out of the saddle. Stirling looks back on the first of two stints at Stuart Ramsey's Turangga Stud in the Hunter Valley. He reflects on an amazing six years as a jackeroo on Northern Territory cattle stations. He says the experience taught him about life. Stirling looks back on his second stint at Turangga Stud. This time he proved to be a natural in the art of horse breaking. He reflects on experience gained at Eliza Park Stud in Victoria and Gerry Harvey's Broombee Stud at Armidale. By this time he was giving serious thought to trying his hand as a horse trainer. Stirling says his first runner as a trainer left him a little flat, but his first win a few months later determined his future career direction. He shares the story of that first winner New Endeavour not to be confused with a Waterhouse/Bott import of the same name. The trainer makes special mention of another horse to get him up and running. He won 8 races with the son of Dylan Thomas. Stirling takes us through the backstories associated with his five TAB Highway winners. He says it was satisfying to play a part in the early education of Gr 1 winner Chain Of Lightning. He actually won two country races with the daughter of Fighting Sun before her transfer to Peter Moody. Stirling appreciated the opportunity to train So You Are until his recent transfer to Bjorn Baker. He won 4 races with the consistent galloper and posted 11 placings including a second to The Budgiesmugla in the recent Caloundra Cup. He acknowledges the talents of the two jockeys he supports on the country circuit. This is a laid back chat with a young man whose destiny was set in stone from those early days in the saddle on his family's Tamworth property. Interesting to note he hasn't strayed far from the famous New England region.

1936 SPAINAustralian Weather Forecast Signals Growing UncertaintyJeremy Zakis reports Australia's Bureau of Meteorology has revised its El Niño forecast from catastrophic to significantly milder. The primary ocean warming is positioned further east toward the Americas, while the Indian Ocean Dipole delivers unexpected moisture from the west. This atmospheric moisture counterbalances dry conditions, potentially bringing heavier spring rainfall across the continent. However, early bushfire alerts remain active, particularly in the Northern Territory. Emerging spring storms may trigger lightning strikes on dry undergrowth, creating heightened fire hazards. Despite unpredictable long-term climate models, current weather in New South Wales remains warm, clear, and ideal for popular local weekend beach outings right now. (1)

Meet Jess Webster, AFL play-by-play commentator for Triple M and Fox Footy.Two nights before we recorded this podcast, she was on stage accepting the Clinton Grybas Emerging Talent Award at the AFL Media Awards.Jess grew up in Brisbane with three older brothers, running the scoreboard at her local footy ground for a pie and a can of Coke and umpiring boundary as a high-school casual. She studied journalism at Monash and the University of Queensland, did six weeks of TV internships that led nowhere, then moved to Darwin with no job, where someone resigned at the NT News two weeks later and she got her way in. Five years in the Territory gave her print, local commentary and the rise of live streaming. Back in Brisbane, she met mentor Quentin Hull, who taught her play-by-play from scratch and helped her call her first AFL radio game in 2017.Then she moved to Melbourne on nothing more than "if you're in Melbourne, we'd consider you." COVID hit, she lost her AFL job, and she went two years without a single play-by-play game, working government comms and thinking her career was over. She fought all the way back, called Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera's history-making comeback as Triple M's first female play-by-play caller, and this year became the second woman to call AFL on television.Lots to look out for in this episode, including how to create your own opportunities in an industry where the jobs are never advertised, sustaining belief and bouncing back when the work you want disappears, and how the right mentor and the right mindset shift can change a career!We cover:(04:25) - Interview begins(06:23) - Quick Fire Questions(12:46) - How Jess got her foot in the door in sports media and journalism(17:24) - Jess' career after she moved out of the Northern Territory(28:46) - The feeling and preparation before calling her first game live(35:29) - What preparation tactics has Jess picked up from peers(37:10) - Jess' career move to Melbourne(43:45) - How Jess built a mindset that has helped her career journey(50:24) - Key takeaways from the "Finding Mastery" podcast(54:05) - How Jess landed her roles at Fox Footy and Triple M calling AFL games weekly(56:54) - The week after Jess' incredible call of Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera's moment against Melbourne FC(58:11) - Biggest Pinch me momentIf you liked this ep, give these a go next:#263: Journey to become a Sports Journalist with Sarah Burt #356: Career journey of FIFA World Cup Commentator David Basheer #363: From outsider to on-air - how to become a sports broadcaster with David Culbert OLY Want a job in sport?

Miguel Larregui is an attorney based out of Mexico City, a devoted family man, and passionate big-game hunter whose pursuits have taken him far beyond the courtroom. His hunting adventures have reached some of the world's wildest places, including Australia's remote Northern Territory, where he was featured in the 2025 documentary In the Shadow of Giants. But it's the Mexican jungle that truly calls him back—a place where dense cover, challenging conditions, and close encounters with wild game make every hunt an adventure. For Miguel, hunting is as much about family, tradition, and the experience of wild places as it is the pursuit itself. Presented by: Black Rifle Coffee, JK Armament
Interview by Ali WilliamsIf organising an interstate show for your band meant first having to consult an aviation specialist, gather a road-condition report and possibly notify the Department of Defence, most would assume that you're either stuck in a fever dream and or that definitely be some A grade ganga you've gotten your grubby little mittens on. However this is standard band life for Northern Territory's MERTAS. Based in remote northeast Arnhem Land, the punk outfit must contend with return flights approaching $2K per person or a twelve-hour drive to Darwin, much of it along dirt roads. There are no traffic lights in their community, no Kmart and no Macca's.Consequently, the band's first performances outside the Northern Territory are not just another booking on the calendar. Their arrival at BIGSOUND is a considerable achievement and one they are properly thrilled about. Speaking with HEAVY, MERTA'S Matt Kane explained that their band began with the dependable combination of skateboarding, mates and discovering music that immediately demanded further investigation. He grew up listening to hip-hop before a friend at the skate park introduced him to punk, Tool and other heavier acts. A stint providing vocals in a Rage Against The Machine-influenced project followed, before Matt learned guitar, contacted a few friends and suggested they have a jam.That was essentially the master plan. They found music they loved, picked up instruments and started making their own. The band developed gradually, playing throughout Arnhem Land and building a strong connection with Darwin's expanding punk and heavy music community. Their hometown location may complicate touring, but it has also encouraged MERTAS to become impressively self-reliant. Matt works professionally in photography and videography, allowing much of the band's recording, filming and promotional work to be created from his bedroom.Full write up and interview heavymag.com.auBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Friends for years and with CF as their connection, Laura and Petrina have figured out how to raise CF awareness across the world. How does cystic fibrosis care compare between Australia and the United States? Host Laura Bonnell talks with Petrina Fraccaro, CEO of CF Queensland, about her journey into CF advocacy, the mission of CF Queensland, and the support available to individuals and families living with cystic fibrosis. Laura and Petrina also discuss the global landscape of cystic fibrosis, including advocacy, carrier screening, and international collaboration. They share insights from worldwide conferences, highlight the importance of community support, and explore opportunities to improve access to care and medications for people living with CF around the globe. As cofounders of the CF Global Advocacy Alliance (CFGAA), the women talk about how organizations around the world are working together to create a brighter future for the CF community. A Personal Connection to Cystic Fibrosis Petrina's path to CF advocacy is an interesting one. With a background in public relations, education, and working to empower women, she eventually began looking for an opportunity in the not-for-profit world. She wanted to use her skills for something meaningful, particularly for a chronic illness that many people didn't understand. But CF wasn't completely unfamiliar to her. As a child, Petrina had watched a family friend live with cystic fibrosis. That early experience stayed with her and eventually helped lead her into a career advocating for people and families affected by CF. Today, that passion has grown into leadership at Cystic Fibrosis Queensland, where she works to make sure people living with CF and their families have the resources, support, and advocacy they need. Supporting Families Through Cystic Fibrosis Queensland Cystic Fibrosis Queensland provides support across Queensland and the Northern Territory, helping families navigate the financial, emotional, and practical challenges that come with CF. Petrina talked openly about the challenges the organization has faced, including financial sustainability. Rather than trying to do everything, she focused on listening to the CF community and identifying the services that were most important. Those services include: Medical subsidies to help families manage the costs associated with CF care. Specialty grants that can help provide equipment such as nebulizers and oxygen concentrators. Education scholarships that help people with CF pursue college, training, and career opportunities. Mental health support for people with CF, their families, and caregivers. What struck me throughout our conversation was how much of this work comes down to one simple idea: people should not have to navigate CF alone. Why Awareness and Education Still Matter It can be easy to look at the incredible advances in CF treatment and think that we have solved many of the problems associated with the disease. We haven't. While CF treatments have changed dramatically—and modulators have given many people with CF opportunities that previous generations never had—there are still people who are diagnosed late, people who don't have access to the newest treatments, and families who don't understand what CF means when it enters their lives. Petrina talked about the importance of reaching immigrant and multicultural communities in Australia, where cystic fibrosis may not be well understood or even recognized. That education extends beyond families. Healthcare professionals and the broader community also need to understand CF so that people can be diagnosed as early as possible and connected with appropriate care. The Importance of Carrier Screening One of the topics we discussed that I think deserves much more attention is genetic carrier screening. Cystic fibrosis is an inherited condition, and a person can be a healthy carrier without ever knowing it. In Australia, Cystic Fibrosis Australia estimates that approximately 1 in 25 people carry a CF gene change, and most carriers are unaware of their status. Research from Australia also demonstrates just how important broader carrier screening can be. In a study of 12,000 people undergoing reproductive carrier screening for CF, spinal muscular atrophy, and fragile X syndrome, 342 people were identified as CF carriers, about 1 in 34 people screened. Approximately 88% of the people identified as carriers had no known family history of the condition. That last statistic is especially important. You don't have to have a family history of cystic fibrosis to be a carrier. Australia took an important step in November 2023 when reproductive carrier screening for CF, spinal muscular atrophy, and fragile X syndrome was added to the Medicare Benefits Schedule for people who are pregnant or planning a pregnancy. Testing has increased significantly since then, although there is still a need for greater awareness and education about carrier screening. For me, this is another reminder that education can change lives. Knowing your carrier status can give people information they can use when making decisions about starting or growing their families. Mental Health Is Part of CF Care Another part of our conversation that really stood out to me was mental health. Living with CF is not just about medications, clinic appointments, hospitalizations, treatments, and lung function numbers. It can affect every part of a person's life, and it affects the entire family. Cystic Fibrosis Queensland has developed mental health programming that supports people with CF as well as their families and caregivers. Petrina also talked about mental health first-aid training, which can give people the tools to recognize when someone may be struggling and help connect them with appropriate support. We also talked about something that comes up frequently in advocacy: the power and responsibility of sharing your story. Personal stories can educate people, change hearts, raise money, and influence policy. But constantly telling your story can also be emotionally exhausting. That means we need to make sure the people sharing their experiences are supported, too. Advocacy Is About More Than Awareness One of my biggest takeaways from talking with Petrina is that advocacy isn't just about making people aware that cystic fibrosis exists. It's about changing systems. It's about making sure families can afford the care they need. It's about access to medications and equipment. It's about education. It's about mental health. It's about genetic screening. It's about making sure people in every community—including communities where CF may be less recognized—have access to knowledgeable healthcare. And it's about making sure that progress in CF doesn't leave people behind. Looking Toward the Future Petrina's journey is a great example of what can happen when someone combines professional skills with a personal passion for making a difference. Our conversation reminded me that the CF community has come incredibly far, but there is still so much work to do. The treatments may be changing. The life expectancy for people with CF is changing. The way we think about CF is changing. But the need for advocacy, education, support, and connection isn't going away. And that's why conversations like this matter. I'm grateful to Petrina—not only for the work she does every day for the CF community in Australia, but for the friendship we've built through our shared commitment to making life better for people and families living with cystic fibrosis.

Promotes his free VIP program (event invites), the Moe Grand Prix in Tampa, an interactive "What Do You Want From Us" comedy show with Ross coming in October, and the annual Moe Celebrity Bowlarama. Core Flooring Center (coreflooringfl.com) — Owner Corey's Central Florida showroom (walkable flooring samples). Listeners get 10% off flooring and labor starting at $1/sq ft, 0% financing for 24 months, and dustless flooring removal; a portion of sales supports local pet charities. Segment Rundown Show open and download-count banter — Tom and Dan kick off the Friday free show joking about being too comfortable on air and touting the show's roughly 20 million total downloads over nearly 30 years. Savannah's dramatic entrance — The hosts joke about a professionally produced "Crocodile Dundee"-style intro bit for Savannah, then she bursts in late, having just come from getting a traffic ticket. Expired-tag traffic stop story — Savannah recounts being pulled over driving from Gatorland for an expired vehicle registration, getting warned a repeat stop could mean jail, and paying a $114 ticket. The group riffs on DMV renewal hassles, automated license-plate-reading cameras, and Dan's own past run-in with an expired driver's license (including his wife Crystal once telling a cop she was driving because his license was suspended). Australia trip recap: Northern Territory and viral songs — Savannah describes her month-long stay near Darwin with her friend Catherine's teenage kids, then plays two viral local songs ("Pink Blush" and a track by Young Miami), sparking a debate about fast-fashion brands like Shein versus the designer-brand references in older rap. Remembering Dolly Parton — The group discusses Dolly Parton's recent death, with Savannah recalling the outpouring of sympathy she got from Australians while traveling, a bit about post office flags at half-staff, and a running joke about Dan dressing as Dolly for Halloween. Filming crocodile feedings — Savannah describes filming pig-meat crocodile feedings for content and a near-miss when a crocodile bumped her GoPro rig underwater. The crocodile-poop diamond ring — Savannah tells the story of pulling a tarnished diamond ring out of crocodile droppings while cleaning park drains, brings it into the studio, and the group speculates on how it got there (a lost tourist's ring, a ring embedded in pig meat, or something a "nuisance" crocodile swallowed years earlier) and whether she'd return it if she ever traced it to a victim's family. Wombat and wallaby encounters — Savannah describes her daily play sessions (and occasional bites) with a wombat named Rocket and a standoffish wallaroo named King George at the park. Tease for jet lag / NFL Australia segment — Brief tease before the break about discussing jet lag and the NFL game being played in Australia the following week. AI-assisted ring analysis — Back from break, Dan reveals he ran a description of the ring through Claude, which suggested a sterling-silver band with an oval clear stone in a style common from the 1920s–1960s and recommended a jeweler test for a maker's mark; the hosts jokingly dangle a free cruise spot for whoever can positively identify the ring. The mystery poop bag / Seth Petruzzelli reveal — Callback to a bit about a dog-poop bag left outside the studio all week; caller Brandon had correctly guessed it belonged to former guest Seth Petruzzelli, confirmed via a group text from Seth (on a cruise). Brandon is rewarded with a Tom & Dan merchandise prize pack. Jet lag mechanics and NFL Australia games — Savannah explains why the trip home from Australia hits harder than the trip there, recounting driving on the wrong side of the road and getting lost the morning after landing. This leads into discussion of the 49ers vs. Rams Week 1 game in Australia and whose travel plan (acclimating a week early vs. arriving 24 hours out) will backfire. Wheel of Fortune announcer scandal — The hosts discuss announcer Jim Thornton's firing after being seen on a flight accessing an online support community for people with pedophilic thoughts, debating intent and why the network cut ties regardless. Plane screen-privacy and targeted-ad tangent — A bit about people snooping on neighbors' phone/laptop screens on flights, Dan's admission to browsing a friend-of-the-show burlesque performer's photos mid-flight, and a riff on social media ads seeming to "listen in" on conversations. Otter attack news story — A news item about a woman injured by an otter while open-water swimming leads to a tangent celebrating unstoppable elderly athletes (swimmers, runners, pickleball players). "Last Stop Laramie" documentary recommendation — Savannah recommends an HBO Max true-crime documentary about an unsolved murder in a tiny Northern Territory town, calling it "homework" for listeners; also mentions the 20th anniversary of Steve Irwin's death and shares Australian "strawberry cloud" candy with the hosts. Burning Man riff ("bring the vinegar") — An extended bit about Burning Man culture: having to rinse off alkaline playa dust with vinegar (the episode's namesake joke), gripes about big festival crowds and sound quality, trash left behind at the event, and a running gag about starting a mini parody version called "Burning Dan." Shoes and celebrity memorabilia tangent — A bit about favorite oversized New Balance "Willie Nelson" sneakers (with a mention of Willie Nelson's own shoes on display in Nashville), followed by talk of friends' celebrity memorabilia — a Dolly Parton outfit, Betty White's door, a talking Satchmo doll, and an animatronic singing Alan Jackson Santa. Social media algorithm suppression and Instagram "breakup" — Savannah explains how Instagram throttles her reach unless she posts risky "running from crocodiles" content, even losing followers off a 1.5-million-view viral video, and describes going on a content blackout and writing the platform a "Dear John" video letter. The group connects this to algorithms rewarding negativity and the growing uncertainty over AI-generated content online. Voicemail: TikTok algorithm burnout — A listener voicemail says the TikTok algorithm has gotten worse and they've switched to rewatching old shows (Vice Principals, The Righteous Gemstones); the hosts riff on preferring classic sitcoms (The Jeffersons, Sanford and Son, Good Times, Golden Girls) over TikTok and note wanting to watch "Monsters of God," a documentary Savannah says she knows people featured in. Show close — Sign-off wishing listeners a safe Labor Day weekend, a reminder the show is off Monday and returns Tuesday with the BDM show, an apology for canceling Thursday's show due to Dan's emergency root canal, and a closing plug for the 2027 "Seaz Nuts" Tom and Dan Cruise, noting strong early sign-ups. Key Dates / Plugs Mentioned Next week: NFL Week 1 game played in Australia (49ers vs. Rams), discussed re: jet lag. Monday: Show is off. Tuesday: Show returns with the BDM edition. October: Just Call Moe's interactive "What Do You Want From Us" comedy show with Ross. September 23–26, 2027: Tom and Dan "Seaz Nuts" Cruise, sailing from Port Canaveral on the MSC Seashore (Nassau and Ocean Cay stops) — deposits open now at tomanddancruise2027.com. Ongoing/unscheduled: Moe Grand Prix (Tampa) and Moe Celebrity Bowlarama, plugged via justcallmoe.com's VIP program. Notable Guests/Callers Savannah — In-studio guest from Gatorland; recounted her month-long Australia trip, the crocodile-poop diamond ring find, and her ongoing standoff with Instagram's algorithm. Brandon — Phone-in caller who correctly guessed that former guest Seth Petruzzelli left the poop bag outside the studio; awarded a Tom & Dan prize pack. Seth Petruzzelli — Referenced (not on air) via a group text confirming he was the "poop bag culprit." Unnamed voicemail caller — Left a voicemail about TikTok algorithm burnout, prompting the closing sitcom-nostalgia discussion. ### Website: https://tomanddan.com/ App: https://tomanddan.com/app Become a BDM: https://tomanddan.com/registration Merch: https://tomanddan.myshopify.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TomandDanLive Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/tomanddanlive Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AMediocreTime Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tomanddanlive/ X: https://x.com/TomAndDanLive TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@tomanddanshow Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/tomanddan ACT RSS: https://feeds.libsyn.com/61976/rss AMT RSS: https://feeds.libsyn.com/18904/rss

It's Wednesday, September 2nd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Another state in India passed anti-conversion law India's state of Maharashtra became the 13th in the country to enact an “anti-conversion” law last week. It's the country's second-most populous state. This has prompted thousands of churches in the area to have worshippers sign a form. The form simply says the person is attending freely and not under coercion. India's “anti-conversion” laws are often used to target Christians. Hindu nationalists have attacked churches in Maharashtra 11 times in the last six months. India is ranked 12th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most dangerous places to be a Christian. In John 15:18-19, Jesus said, “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet, because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.” Send a polite, 4-sentence note to Vinay Kwatra, the Indian Ambassador to America, asking that he urge his government not to pass these anti-conversion laws which target Christians. Address it to the Embassy of India, 2107 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20008. You'll find the correct spelling of the ambassador's name and the address in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Australia's new assisted suicide law ABC News Australia reports Australia's Northern Territory passed a bill legalizing assisted suicide last week. The territory was the first in the world to legalize voluntary euthanasia in the 1990s. Australia's federal government overturned the law within a couple years. But in 2022, the government reversed its decision, allowing the territory to legalize assisted suicide once again. Now, all states and territories in Australia allow for this form of killing. Over 7,200 people have died this way in the country since 2019. Trump's Venezuelan oil deal gives access to 65 billion barrels The Trump administration announced a major oil deal with Venezuela on Friday. The deal would give the United States access to 17 oil fields in Venezuela with proven reserves of 65 billion barrels of oil. That's about 20 percent of the country's reserves. By comparison, the U.S. has 46 billion barrels of proven oil reserves. President Donald Trump hopes the deal will lower gas prices for Americans. However, analysts suggest that the deal will not relieve prices in the short-term. Homeland Security investigates voter fraud in 9 states CNN reports that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security is investigating voter fraud in nine states ahead of the midterm elections in November. These states include California, Connecticut, Georgia, Missouri, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, Washington, and Wisconsin. The Trump administration is pushing for states to phase out certain electronic voting systems and move to paper ballots. The administration has threatened to withhold significant homeland security funds from states that do not adopt such election changes. ICE arrested 51,000 immigration arrests in July U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement made 51,000 immigration arrests in July. That's up from 43,000 arrests in June. Both months set records for the agency. Nearly 20,000 of July's arrests were in Texas and Florida. Both states have been very cooperative with the Trump administration's mass deportation efforts. Gallup poll: Americans supportive of marriage if couple has kids A new Gallup poll found that more Americans are supportive of marriage when children are involved. Thirty-nine percent of U.S. adults say it is very important for a couple to be legally married if they have a child together. That's up from 29 percent in 2020. However, it's down from 49 percent in 2006. Gallup noted, “Weekly church attendees show one of the largest increases since 2020 in the belief that couples, who have a child together, should be married, up 24 points, from 41% to 65%.” Bible societies distributed 148 million Scriptures in 2025 And finally, the United Bible Societies distributed over 148 million printed Scriptures in 2025. The top countries for Bible distribution last year were Brazil, China, India, Nigeria, and the Philippines. Rev. Dirk Gevers, Secretary General of the United Bibles Societies, said, “While printed Scriptures continue to reach hundreds of millions of people each year, digital engagement is growing, opening new opportunities to connect with the Bible through mobile devices and online platforms.” This year is the organization's 80th anniversary. Since 1946, the Bible society has distributed 25 billion Scriptures, including 1.1 billion complete Bibles. Malachi 1:11 says, “From the rising of the sun, even to its going down, My name shall be great among the Gentiles; in every place incense shall be offered to My name, and a pure offering; for My name shall be great among the nations.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, September 2nd, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Today we had the pleasure of hosting Todd Abbott, Chief Executive Officer of Tamboran Resources, and Dick Stoneburner, Chairman of Tamboran's Board, for a conversation recorded on location in Daly Waters, Northern Territory, Australia, a town of roughly 55 people. Tamboran holds approximately 2.8 million net acres across the Beetaloo Basin, and Todd estimates the basin contains roughly 200 Tcf of recoverable gas, enough to support 5 to 6 Bcf per day for a century. The company is dual-listed on the Australian Securities Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange. We recorded on Tuesday morning Australia time this week as part of the company's first gas celebration at the Shenandoah 2 pad. In our conversation, Todd explains why a resource of this scale and duration is unique globally, in a region with rising demand and declining domestic supply, and in a country that has supplied LNG to Asia since 1989. He describes the Northern Territory as the most supportive regulatory regime he has worked with, including Texas, with a high bar on standards paired with real support in clearing them. We explore Tamboran's various strategic partnerships, including Liberty Energy, Helmerich & Payne, and Baker Hughes, all of which are investors in the company. We also discuss INPEX's recent farm-in to the Daly Waters joint venture. Todd covers the company's cost structure in the field and also discusses gas prices which are roughly three times U.S. levels. As we wrapped up with Todd, we touch on the growing inbound interest from multinationals to Asian gas utilities, and his view that timing, not geology, is the biggest uncertainty he cannot control. A theme throughout the discussion with Todd was his comparison of this new shale development to others he has seen in his 25-year career. Dick then takes us under the hood on the subsurface. At roughly 1.4 billion years old, the Beetaloo is the oldest petroleum system in the world, deposited when only a single life form existed, leaving 150 meters of continuous thermogenic shale from that one organism type. He describes petrophysical characteristics most comparable to the Marcellus and superior to it in many areas, and early well behavior that appears genuinely different, including one well on incline at the tail end of a 90-day test with no surface changes. He also walks us through how Tamboran found the over pressured areas, moving 60 miles south into the deepest part of the basin. We close with well spacing at Shenandoah 2, the beneficial use of gas allowance that lets Tamboran produce ahead of a formal production license, and the milestones Dick is watching, principally the first real decline curves and the testing of additional landing zones. Dick has been involved with the company since 2014 and, as a result, offers a phenomenal historical perspective. Mike Bradley opened the discussion by noting that Treasury yields moved higher across the curve this week, with the 10-year Treasury yield rising to 4.8% and the 30-year Treasury yield exceeding 5.25%. The increase in yields was driven primarily by Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh's more hawkish tone at last week's Jackson Hole Economic Symposium, which prompted investors to scale back expectations for future interest rate cuts. Turning to the broader equity market, he highlighted that the S&P 500 declined ~1% this week, pressured by higher oil prices and rising bond yields. With second-quarter earnings season largely in the rearview mirror, investor attention is increasingly shifting toward the September 16 FOMC meeting and the upcoming U.S. midterm elections. Turning to oil markets, WTI crude oil prices increased ~$6/bbl (to ~$90/bbl) this week amid renewed conflict between the U.S. and Iran. Mike noted that the biggest development in the oil market this week was the announcement of a 65-billion-barrel oil agreement between the U.S. and Venezuela. Turning to natural gas, European prices continued to move higher this week, reaching ~$25/MMBtu (up over 165% year-to-date). The primary driver remains concern over whether European storage inventories can be replenished to "minimum" required levels before the start of the winter heating season in November. The energy sector advanced ~3% this week, supported primarily by stronger crude oil prices. Mike noted that M&A and strategic deals were a major theme across the energy and electricity complex, with four significant deals/transactions announced this week: SLB's acquisition of Kelvion for ~$4.0 billion; ONEOK's acquisition of Brazos Midstream for ~$4.4 billion; Comstock Resources' $1.65 billion cash transaction with SOCAR; and Fervo Energy's 396-megawatt power purchase agreement (PPA) with Google. Mark Castiglione also joined the conversation, and with the help of Albert De La Portilla, he will be spending roughly a week in the Beetaloo basin understanding all the aspects of the play. The Tamboran team could not have been better hosts, and we sincerely appreciate this opportunity.
Sixty years ago, workers at the Wave Hill cattle station in the Northern Territory took a stand against discrimination and poor working conditions and walked off the job in protest. A defining moment for Australia's Indigenous land rights, the Wave Hill walk off lead the way for the Aboriginal Land Rights Act of1976 and its significance is still celebrated today. - Шестьдесят лет назад работники скотоводческой станции Уэйв Хилл в Северной территории выступили против дискриминации и плохих условий труда и в знак протеста покинули свои рабочие места. Забастовка в Уэйв Хилл стала поворотным моментом в борьбе людей из числа Коренных народов Австралии за земельные права и проложила путь к принятию Закона о земельных правах Аборигенных народов 1976 года.

National cabinet met on Wednesday to discuss the federal government's plan for new AI datacentre development. Queensland and the Northern Territory have won a carve-out so that theirs can be powered by coal and gas – rather than renewables. Meanwhile, the fight between the West Australian premier Roger Cook and the Productivity Commission over his state's generous GST deal persists.

On this episode of the Peskies Pest Control Podcast:Beat the summer heat with pest control experts Michael Wienecke and Travis McGowin as they spin a candid, humorous conversation about all things arachnid. From myth-busting brown recluse fears to sharing hilarious close encounters with wolf spiders and explaining why traditional sprays don’t always cut it, this episode dives into the practical dos and don’ts of managing spider activity around your home. Tune in for expert advice, a few cautionary lake house jokes, and a realistic look at why these eight-legged neighbors might not be so bad after all. Watch this on YouTube! Podcast Transcript:Michael Wienecke: How hot has it been outside? Travis McGowin: Can you… can you say expletives on here? Michael Wienecke: It’s been… Well, I think you can say hell on here. I mean, it’s—that’s a—that’s a fair one. That’s a fair one. Travis McGowin: Is the… is the devil’s armpit a good enough analogy? Michael Wienecke: Ooh. Travis McGowin: It’s uh… it’s pretty—it’s been pretty warm out here the last couple weeks. Michael Wienecke: I will say, some of the places I’ve been to have also been stinky, so that’s fair. That’s fair. Travis McGowin: Well, I mean, when you… when you are performing services and your clothes go from saturated to dry to saturated to dry over and over again multiple times, um… it’s… it’s pretty… pretty terrible. Michael Wienecke: Yes. Yes, it is. So, today we want to talk about spiders, man. We are dealing with some just hellacious spiders. Spiders are everywhere. Travis McGowin: Yeah, the… they are. Um, you know, and I understand that… I think you said you like spiders, right? Michael Wienecke: Man, I love spiders. Spiders… spiders are one of the most beneficial insects in all… Travis McGowin: Well, I agree with you in… in that regard. I think the… the vast majority of the population would heavily disagree with you in… in love of spiders, actually. Michael Wienecke: Oh, I have a really awesome video of a spider jumping out of the couch and… and at me as I was videoing it. So, I’ll… I could send that to you if you want to pop it up there real quick. Travis McGowin: The only way I want to see that is if you screamed like a girl. Michael Wienecke: I screamed like a grown man. Travis McGowin: No, the… you know, spiders, obvious—obviously, you know, you’ve got the vast majority of them being very beneficial, the vast majority of them are not venomous, and most of them, you know, don’t even bite. Of course, you know, here in Alabama, most folks, when they think of spiders, their… their brain automatically jumps to one of two, you know, either being the black widow or the brown recluse. And, you know, in my encounters in pest control, the vast majority of spiders that you encounter are neither one of those two spiders. Michael Wienecke: It is so rare to see a brown recluse or… or a black widow. I mean, if you stick your finger in a… a hose pipe or a crack or crevice outside, or just start picking up logs without… without gloves on, you’re probably going to meet a brown recluse or a black widow. But nine times out of 10, it’s going to be a… a wolf spider, excuse me. I lost my… my train of thought… thought there. Travis McGowin: Yeah, but I think most… I think most people, uh, automatically put spiders into this… this dangerous box. Um, now granted, there was… there’s a kind of a funny story. When I was a teenager still living at home with my parents, our… our house had always had this like darker-colored brown carpet. Um… Michael Wienecke: So, it… so, it didn’t show stains! Travis McGowin: I… I mean, I wouldn’t go that far. Uh, but it always had this dark brown carpet, and of course, what color is a wolf spider? Dark brown. Dark brown with black on it, you know, so uh they blended really well. And I remember there was one… one evening where I had went into my bedroom and uh and walked in to the doorway and turned the light on, and there was this massive wolf spider, uh, standing essentially in the doorway. And of course, I think I scared the wolf spider just as much as the wolf spider kind of scared me and startled me, because I wasn’t expecting there to be this massive spider. And uh so when I turned the light on, the spider came running directly at my feet, which I didn’t have any shoes on or anything, and uh so I picked up, you know, kind of jumped, picked up my foot, and the spider’s still running towards me. And when my right foot came down, the foot came down right directly on top of the spider, and uh of course, you know, I came down on the floor and then immediately picked my foot back up. Well, my… the spider had actually curled up and went underneath the… the little gap between my toe and the beginning of my actual part of my foot in that little, you know, raised area where your toes are, and he balled up… Michael Wienecke: They are survivors. They are survivors. Travis McGowin: Yeah, he did. So, he balled up, and then as soon as I picked my foot back up, he popped his legs out and scurried, you know, scurried off. And of course, then I hunted him down with a vengeance and killed him. So, uh, yeah, I… I mean, I wouldn’t say that I’m a huge spider fan. About the only spider that I actually am kind of fascinated with and will actually usually let live, I really… I really like the garden spiders, the… um the garden spiders… Michael Wienecke: The orb… the orb weavers and stuff? Travis McGowin: Um, the orb weavers are… are in my opinion kind of annoying. Um, you know, they’re usually going to attach themselves up in a corner on the side of the house, come out at night, make this ginormous web, and then go and hide during the daytime. Michael Wienecke: But they’re beautiful. Travis McGowin: They are, but they make a mess on the side of your house, which I’m not real thrilled with. Um, but… Michael Wienecke: Let’s talk about that for a minute. So, they make a mess on the side of your house. They build a big web, right? Travis McGowin: Yeah. Every night. Michael Wienecke: And that protects against what? Travis McGowin: Insects. Michael Wienecke: Every single flying insect. Travis McGowin: Yes. Yeah, and… and you’re right. Um, so… so, spiders in… in that regard are… are, you know, of course, very beneficial. Obviously, they have uh… they have a purpose in the world, for sure. Whether or not most people agree with that, you know, that’s a totally different story, so… Michael Wienecke: Well, and that’s… that’s kind of the what this… this talk was about. I mean, we remove spider webs around the house. It’s… it’s more of a vanity thing, I would say. You know? Most people do not want spider webs around the house. However, with the 105-degree heat, we’ve had extra, extra, extra spider webs around people’s houses. Travis McGowin: Right. You know, I understand they… they make… they make a mess. Of course, they’re being, you know, more opportunistic. They’re… they’re finding a place where bugs are going to frequent, whether that’s close to an exterior light, um, you know, that’s going to attract bugs that they can catch and… and subsequently eat after that. So, they’re, you know, they’re being opportunistic. Uh, I… I do totally agree that they have their place in nature. I mean, you could look at a lot of insects, uh, take termites, for example. I mean, in nature, termites have a very important job. We just don’t want them in our house, eating our house, you know. They need to break down old, decaying wood and return it to the soil and all those good things. Uh, the one I don’t understand is a… a mosquito, but that’s a totally different topic. We won’t… we won’t dive off into that one. I… I still don’t understand the point and purpose. Michael Wienecke: Of a mosquito? Travis McGowin: Yes. Michael Wienecke: I mean, bats love ’em. Travis McGowin: Yeah, I understand, but if there’s one insect that exists only to feed bats, I think we can do without them. Bats eat a lot of other things, too. Michael Wienecke: I mean, getting way off topic, but don’t bat guano and isn’t that a pretty helpful thing for the whole food chain? I mean, I think you’re… It’s like you step… You go in the primordial soup, you step on a flower, and everything’s different when you get back. So, you know, you have to… You have to be careful on what you wish is gone and… and here. Travis McGowin: But… but no, I mean, spiders are going to be opportunistic, you know, whether they’re… they’re a spider that… that builds these big, elaborate webs, like you said, the orb weavers, or… or here in Alabama, uh, over the last several weeks, we’ve really had an uptick in what, you know, people call the banana spiders. Um, you know, that you’re inadvertently going to walk face-first into their web, and, you know, they’re… they’re like this big. Um, you know, they’re gigantic, and… and, uh, of course, the webs are really, really strong and sticky, so it’s a picture forever to try to peel it off your face, and, you know, if you haven’t had a heart condition up to that point in your life, you will have a heart condition because, you know, having a spider that big in your face is probably not going to be a comfort zone for most people. Um, but, you know, some of the… some of the other ones, like we were talking about, wolf spiders, uh, especially if you don’t have your… your weather stripping towards the bottom of your… of your door sealed up really well, you know, they’ll sneak right through those little gaps, cracks, and crevices and get in. Um, the really fun thing about the… the wolf spiders being, you know, that they tote their babies on their back, and that can be kind of unsightly, too. Michael Wienecke: Especially when you squish ’em. Travis McGowin: Yeah, because you think you’ve done this good thing, you squished this big, nasty-looking spider, and then all of a sudden, little teeny-tiny babies go crawling everywhere, and then it’s just like a big stomping spree all over the, you know, the place until you feel like the floor’s not moving anymore. So, yeah. But I mean, people need to understand, too, that… that infestations of spiders, um, are not… are not really all that common. I think, Michael, you’ve dealt with some uh brown recluse infestations before in some houses. I mean, in… am I incorrect there? Michael Wienecke: I think in 10 years, I’ve done serious, serious brown recluse infestations maybe… maybe 10 or 20. And… and black widow, I’ve never seen a black widow infestation. I’ve seen a brown widow infestation. I think you have, too. Travis McGowin: Yes. Yeah, I have seen some pretty significant, um, mainly around the exterior of the house, but I have seen some pretty significant, um, brown widow issues. Uh, had a house in particular that I… I counted roughly 60 to 70 brown widows that I killed around the outside of the house, between just being on the exterior, uh, of the structure itself, being on furniture on the back porch, um, and… and that was pretty significant. But I think the 3 months later at the next quarterly treatment, I came back and I think I found three. Michael Wienecke: That’s awesome. Yeah, I had one out in Attalla. Attalla, we still… we still service him, and I was doing a termite inspection, and every… it was built with cinder blocks, and every cinder block had a brown, uh, repeat… I’m sorry… a… a brown widow in it. Travis McGowin: Well, you know, the brown widows are… are like this, I guess, kind of offshoot of the black widow. Um, they’re not nearly as poisonous or anything like that. It’s probably going to be painful if they bite you, but I don’t think it’s going to be one of those things where it likely sends you to the hospital like a black widow probably would. Uh, but they’re terrible at hiding. You know, the… I always said like the… the brown widow, I think, is the black widow’s really, really dumb cousin that doesn’t, you know, pick great hiding spots, because a black widow genuinely, I feel like, does not most of the time want to be found. The brown widow… the brown widow will literally like weave this little web like right there in your face, um, and… and like hi- trying to hide in plain sight, and they’re just not great at that. Michael Wienecke: Yeah, I mean, a black widow bite, that… it all comes from just sticking your hand in a crack or crevice that, you know, one’s in, and it’s just… it’s biting you out of… out of fear. Travis McGowin: Absolutely. Yeah, most of the time, like I said, they don’t want to be found. Um, especially brown recluse, too. I mean, the vast majority of the population could probably count on one hand, maybe, how many times they’ve seen a… a genuine brown recluse in their life that… that was actually that spider and not a confused breed, you know, mistaking a wolf spider or a southern house spider or… or something like that, uh, for a brown wid- uh, a brown recluse instead. Michael Wienecke: Well, and I’m sure, you know, other states and… and stuff like that, and even other cities, but here in Birmingham, you know, the Birmingham metro, I mean, I… I don’t see many brown recluse. Travis McGowin: Right. So, let’s talk a little for just a second. What can… what are some things that customers themselves at their properties can do? Obviously, these are, you know, we look at them like wild animals, but wild insects, if you will, they… they… they’re not going to abide by a rule that we set or anything, but what are some things that customers can do to attempt to either, you know, lessen the pressure that spiders put on their house or lessen the activity that spiders, you know, uh, have around the outside of their house and then subsequently getting inside their house? Michael Wienecke: So, step one, uh, do not buy a lake house. Travis McGowin: Absolutely! Absolutely. Your… your docks, your exterior of your house is going to be covered a lot. Michael Wienecke: There is… there’s not a… you know, just joking aside, but there is not a single lake house that we don’t see that it just… it’s every… you can move it, you can de-web it, you can… you can spray it, you can treat it, a week later, they’re right back because you have so many flying insects around those lake houses. Um, and they just kind of become part of the house. Travis McGowin: Yeah. Like I said, they’re… they’re acting as nature… A decoration. A decoration. Yeah, if you’re ready for Halloween and, you know… Um, but they’re acting as nature intended them to act. I mean, they’re… they’re trying to survive, and they’re, you know, trying to lessen the insect population. Um, but another one that comes to mind for myself, and this can be pretty prevalent in the lake houses, but just houses in general, is the use of exterior lighting on your house. Michael Wienecke: Oh, that’s a big one. That’s for any… roaches, um, any kind of a… a nocturnal type of flying insect is going to come towards your house. I mean, termites. Termite… You see it in Louisiana all the time, you know, these termites are just swarm in these lights. Travis McGowin: Absolutely. Um, so, we… we highly advise people, uh, cause I think, Michael, you could probably tell—say this, too, but people who leave their exterior lighting on on their house all evening, all night long, through the night into the morning time, you’re… you’re going to have a significant amount of pest pressure and spider pressure more than you would if you turned them off. Now, there’s going to be… there’s going to be some things you can’t prevent. For example, uh, light that bleeds through the window to the outside of your house at night, I mean, obviously, you can put up blinds and curtains and try to minimize that, uh, but ultimately, it’s going to be hard to prevent any light from escaping the… the from the inside to the outside of your house. But ensuring that your floodlights and your different light fixtures on the outside of your house, your porch lights, those types of things are turned off is going to probably be a pretty big help in lessening that pest pressure on your house. Michael Wienecke: Well, and also check your windows. You know, I can’t tell you how many customers will go around and see a… a window from the… from the top slid down, and their window’s unlocked, and they don’t even know it. And I’d imagine it’s because of the pressures in the home, and it’s just pushing that window open a little bit, but we see it all the time. Um, so that would be a big one, too. Travis McGowin: Absolutely. And then, of course, you know, spiders are obviously looking for things to eat. That’s, I mean, that’s how they survive. So, limiting, I would say, too, limiting the amount of insect harborage areas around the outside of your house, right there directly around your house, in your flower beds, and… and those types of areas is probably going to also help limit the amount of spider pressure that you have, because anywhere that insects can hide, obviously, spiders are kind of praying on those other insects, uh, so anywhere that you have that these insects can hide or live and make this little insect community, if you will, it’s going to be a place where a spider goes, “Oh, well, I’m going to go get, you know, lunch or dinner.” So, I think that would be helpful, too. Michael Wienecke: Well, and let’s talk about, you know, the landscape, too, because if you are in Greystone, for instance, or Chelsea, so, you know, a big, wooded area, um, I… that’s just kind of what’s coming to my mind right now. Uh, just a big, wooded area, and your house is on the backside, you know, of just this big, wooded, tall trees, I mean, these… these spiders balloon, and I’ve seen it. It’s… it’s amazing. They’ll… they’ll parachute… they’ll parachute right out of these trees, right onto your house, and it’s… it’s just… it’s nature’s cool way of, uh, spreading… spreading, you know, the love from house to house, to tree to tree, but… Travis McGowin: Have you seen the… the images… I think, uh, you know, and it may just be a sensational AI-generated photo, but I think this was kind of going around before AI was really, uh, taking over. Um, but have you seen the videos, I think from Australia… Michael Wienecke: Man, so sad that we have to… I have to question… Travis McGowin: I know, right? You question everything you see, because half of it’s not even real, but… Um, have you seen the videos that people have posted of like when the spiders all come out in some of the other countries where they’re just covering like everything? Michael Wienecke: Yes, in Au- are you talking about Australia where they’re just… the webs are just covering the whole field? Travis McGowin: Yeah, I… I do not need to go there at any point. Michael Wienecke: You know, I feel like Australia has everything that will either kill you or just really, really irritate you. Travis McGowin: I think that’s a proven fact. I may be wrong, but I think Australia has a higher number of deadly animals and insects per square mile than like any other country. Michael Wienecke: I would… I would love to go… I would love to go to Northern… Northern Territory, though, because that’s… that’s as far off as you can get and see these 21-foot crocs and stuff. That’d be pretty cool. Travis McGowin: And… and I’ll say this, uh, kind of in closing about the spider things. I know that people get frustrated, um, you know, you may call in your pest control provider, you may go to the store and attempt to purchase something that says it eliminates spiders and all that, and it doesn’t necess- and well, let me back up and say that you may feel like it doesn’t work or that it’s ineffective. But here’s the… the reality about the spiders. So, pesticides, if they contact a spider’s body, they can… they can kill a spider. But Michael, why are most pesticides ineffective against spiders based upon their biology and how they act? Michael Wienecke: Well, they’re just really high off the ground. I mean, simple as that. So, they’re not getting that full… that full contact. Um, they’re just really high off the ground. I mean, a dust is going to be the best… the best course of action, um, an aerosol, something of that nature. But really, treating those cracks and crevices just… just like we all talk about. Um, you know, back to the outside, the water, the water, water, you know. It’s… it’s 105 degrees. There… there’s water everywhere, but not a drop to drink. So, wherever you’ve got, I mean, we’re seeing it all day long, and I don’t think people realize, but that… that little bitty, what is it, 1/2-inch PVC pipe that’s coming off the AC condenser, that thing is spitting out, what would you say, Travis? What would you say, 12 gallons a day or something like that? Travis McGowin: Yeah, I… I mean, the way the weather’s been right now, it’s probably a lot more than that. I mean, the same reason why if you don’t make sure that drain is clean that it’s going to flood your, you know, house. Michael Wienecke: Yeah, and… Travis McGowin: It’s a significant amount of condensation coming from those. Michael Wienecke: Right. So, I… I always try to, you know, point that out. We see it and just say, “Hey, kick that to a 90 or a 45 and get that as far away from your property as possible,” because that’s going to bring ants, that’s going to bring, uh, flying insects around that area at night, that’s going to bring, you know, all types of other insects that eat other insects, and then those spiders are going to come because of the flying insects. Travis McGowin: And that’s one other thing that I like to… to share, too, with my customers is that not only are they higher off the ground so they’re less likely to make full contact with that product, but they also don’t groom themselves. Michael Wienecke: Ah, yes. Yes, they do. They… Travis McGowin: So, you know, a lot… like a lot of other insects, I know that it’s weird to say that roaches groom themselves, um, because we view roaches as, you know, nasty little insects or nasty little creatures, but they do, you know, scurry along and… and trek through things, you know, specifically pesticides that are put out, and then, you know, further damage themselves or harm themselves by grooming themselves, and spiders don’t do that. Uh, so even if their little feet did cross a barrier or touch, the likelihood of them ingesting or really coming to enough product that could hurt them is going to be slim to none. So, it’s going to be a lot harder to, uh, be effective against spiders by just like sprays alone. That’s why I’m glad you mentioned about dusts and aerosols and different tools that pest control companies have at their disposal, um, because sometimes just praying and spraying like some folks do is… is not going to be adequate to solve a spider problem. Michael Wienecke: It’s… it’s funny you brought up the dust thing. Um, somebody put an ad out saying it was a new product, and, um, that they didn’t have to… No, they had no longer had to, uh, spray around the house. They could just Delta dust every crack and crevice, and it was brand new. Brand new product. Hot on the market, baby! Hot on the market! Travis McGowin: It’s been out for years. Hey, well, you know, whatever… whatever ploy you need to sell your product, you know. Um, sounds a bit like someone trying to sell the wheel, you know. Let’s put these amazing new round things on our car to drive. Uh, yeah, I think pretty sure tires have been round since cars were invented back in early 1900s, so… The post Eights Legs & Extreme Heat: The Truth About Spiders appeared first on Peskies Pest Control.

Interview with Alex Underwood, Managing Director, Beetaloo EnergyOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/empire-energy-asxeeg-racing-to-unlock-vast-australian-shale-gas-resource-4901Recording date: 7th August 2026Beetaloo Energy Australia, formerly Empire Energy Group, is moving toward a crucial milestone in the development of the Northern Territory's Beetaloo Basin, with first gas from its Carpentaria pilot now targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026. The updated schedule is later than the company's previously indicated 2025 timeframe, reflecting construction and commissioning realities rather than a change in the project's resource base or contracted sales position.Three wells have been connected to a pilot pad located approximately five kilometres from the Carpentaria gas plant, whose construction and flowline installation are largely complete. The project is supported by a binding 10-year gas sales agreement with the Northern Territory Government. The contract provides fixed-price revenue with a consumer price index-linked escalator, giving Beetaloo visibility over near-term cash flows. Initial supply is expected to reach 10 terajoules per day, potentially increasing by another 15 terajoules per day once pipeline-flow infrastructure is upgraded.The company reports approximately A$125 million in available liquidity, divided roughly between cash and undrawn facilities, including Macquarie Bank funding for the gas plant. Management says this provides sufficient funding through first gas without an immediate need for further equity.However, well economics remain dependent on substantial cost reductions. Recent wells cost more than A$50 million each, partly because of Australia's remote logistics and high transport costs. Beetaloo expects year-round drilling and stimulation to eventually halve well costs, supporting targeted internal rates of return of 30% to 50%.A separate growth opportunity comes from a non-binding memorandum of understanding with Halliburton for Beetaloo Digital, a proposed AI data centre near Darwin. Halliburton would contribute power-generation expertise, while Beetaloo's role would remain focused on supplying gas rather than owning or operating the facility.Longer term, demand could come from Northern Territory industry, east-coast gas shortages and LNG exports. Nevertheless, the investment case remains exposed to first-gas delays, high initial well costs, third-party pipeline investment and the uncommitted status of the data-centre proposal.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/empire-energy-groupSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
There's a photo on Tim Ireland's Google Scholar profile of a toddler standing on the floor of an open pit gold mine in Australia's Northern Territory, wearing a hard hat and — because it was the early 1980s — flip flops. That toddler is now the Principal Geologist for Exploration at **First Quantum Minerals**, one of the world's major copper producers, and in this episode Jesse sits down with him to talk about how mineral exploration actually works.Tim grew up with two geologist fathers, but the path in wasn't as direct as it sounds. He took a gap year as a field technician and mostly hated it. He considered leaving to design jewelry. He turned down a PhD because being told he'd become "one of the world experts on sedimentary rock–hosted zinc" sounded uncomfortably narrow — then spent a few years alone in the desert with a drill rig and 22,000 square kilometers of ground before the university called back with something better.From there we get into the machinery of exploration. Tim describes the job as **reducing search space** — starting with a continent and narrowing until you're willing to spend real money drilling — and why that philosophy holds whether you're chasing porphyry copper in Chile, sediment-hosted copper in the DRC, or orthomagmatic nickel in Finland. We also get into the part they don't teach in a mineral deposits course: three or four people weighing in over email on whether to spend millions on relatively scant information, and why what a company really pays a principal geologist for is a **calibrated gut**.The scientific heart of the episode is what Tim calls the **quality question**. Deposit models are good at telling a geologist whether they're getting warmer. They're not good at telling you whether the thing you're walking toward will ever be a mine — and the industry is full of "technical successes" nobody publishes, where the geologist did the job right and the deposit simply wasn't good enough. We also cover critical minerals and why the West is late (Tim was in the room in Oslo in 2007 when China announced the plan out loud), the 22-year lag from discovery to production, and why he's skeptical of AI prospectivity tools — if there are only ten porphyry deposits on Earth with more than a hundred million tons of contained copper, that's not a training set.It closes with Tim's best day as a geologist: alone in a gorge in the northern Chilean desert, a ten-mile traverse, a spire of rock he probably shouldn't have climbed, and one outcrop that put his hand on a fault he'd only been able to argue about on paper.In this episode- The Google Scholar baby photo — hard hat, flip flops, floor of an open pit- A gap year he didn't enjoy, and the jewelry business that never happened- Why he turned down a PhD on sedimentary zinc — and what he asked for instead- Industry-funded research: "cut-price consultants," or the best training pipeline there is?- Reducing search space: the one philosophy that holds across every deposit type- Spending millions on scant information, and what a calibrated gut is worth- Critical minerals, the 2007 Oslo warning, and who's still in denial- 22 years from discovery to production — and why averages lie- The quality question: why our models can't tell a mine from a "technical success"- AI in exploration: the useful camp, the black-box camp, and why ten deposits isn't a training set- Big company vs. junior — kudos versus shares, and the trade-off nobody spells out- Tim's best day as a geologist, alone in a Chilean gorgeAbout the guestDr. Tim Ireland is Principal Geologist for Exploration at First Quantum Minerals, a global copper-focused mining company. He trained at the University of Tasmania, with an honors project on the MacArthur River zinc deposit and a PhD on porphyry copper systems in northern Chile. His career has run through Newmont in Turkey, a junior working sediment-hosted copper in the DRC, and thirteen years at First Quantum.Memorable quotes- "If it were mathematical and there was a definite yes/no answer, we wouldn't be needed."- "You still have to do the work. You can't just sit at your desk and think about the model."- "If you've only got ten porphyry deposits in the world with more than a hundred million tons of contained copper, ten's not a great enough training set."- "I'm still kind of hanging out for that day that I walk up a hill and crack the first rock."Download the CampGeo app now at this link.
