Subscribe to LMSU's Patreon for some unsolicited advice to the next Victorian Energy Minister! This week our Bonus episode includes Frankie, Luke and Tennant providing some free (unsolicited) advice to whomsoever occupies the hotseat as Victorian Minister for Climate Change and Energy following this year's state election. Run, don't walk, over to www.letmesumup.net and subscribe to our Patreon to hear which hills your intrepid hosts think are are worth dying on. — This week your intrepid hosts have their eyes on Canberra for the entree and main course, and begin with a substantial speech from Climate and Energy Minister Chris Bowen at the National Press Club. Lots to digest in here, but the big ticket was the minister's announcement to expand the Small Scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) to include deemed incentives for 5 years' generation until 2030 of solar PV systems up to 1 MW, up from 100 kW. This idea has been doing the rounds for years and we reckon, it's an idea whose time has well and truly come! Also packed into the speech was some more meat-on-bones for data centre energy requirements in the forthcoming National Standards - but lots more to come on that front! Our main course Summerupperers, this is the kind of episode your intrepid hosts were born for! This week we chow down on some classic LMSU content. That's right, we speak of the government's just-released 2026-27 Safeguard Mechanism Review consultation paper. Adding to our collection of Safeguard-related episodes, we go long on this one! Much anticipated and promised since 2023, this review is looking at how effective the current settings are in delivering the government's 2030 emissions target, and whether adjustments are needed, as well as what the post-2030 settings should be. In the mix: decline rates! Financial support! To ACCU or not to ACCU! Thresholds! Cost of containment! And dare we say it, a little border carbon adjustment, just adjusting carbon at the border? Let's make BoCA a thing, people! One more things Tennant's One More Thing is: Research showing US Permian Basin methane leakage was nearly halved from 2019 to 2023. Effort, and regulation, make a difference!  Frankie's One More Thing is: a PSA for some soon-to-be-published research from her day job at Investor Group on Climate Change on proposed reforms to the Safeguard Mechanism! The report will be launched in Canberra early next week, so keep your eyes peeled here. Luke's One More Thing is: a rant about some seriously shortsighted and retrograde comments made by the Federal Opposition, committing to replace the National Construction Code with a basic housing standard based on the 1988 building code, before things like energy efficiency provisions were added. Where to start on this particular head scratcher? Hard to imagine a parliamentarian arguing for higher energy bills for vulnerable households, but these are topsy turvy times we live in.  And that's it for now, Summerupperers.

What if a story buried in your family for more than a century suddenly asked you to tell it? Brigid Kennedy's story begins with a real Irish treasure hunter, her great-grandfather Robert Patrick Kennedy, who crossed the Atlantic, married Eudocia Rodrigues in Arequipa, Peru, in 1910—and then disappeared into the Amazon.The story survived in fragments until one night, when Brigid's grandmother appeared to her in a dream and asked her to write the family story.Brigid had never written a novel. She said yes.The result is LOST — The Lost City of Incan Gold, a historical fantasy rooted in her Irish and Incan heritage.In this remarkable conversation, Michael and Brigid explore family mysteries, ancestral places, the power of heritage, and what happens when we travel across the world to reconnect with the people who came before us.From Ireland's Cliffs of Moher and Galway to the monastery in Peru where her great-grandparents married, this is a story about the past refusing to stay buried—and one woman's journey to bring it back to life.Sometimes the story isn't lost. It's waiting to be remembered.Takeaways:The story of Brigid Kennedy's great-grandfather, an Irish treasure hunter, is a profound tale that spans cultures and generations.Brigid's journey to write her family's history began with a dream from her grandmother, prompting her to uncover a long-buried legacy.The intertwining of Irish and Incan heritage in Brigid's novel serves as a testament to the power of ancestry and storytelling.Brigid's travels to Ireland and Peru allowed her to connect deeply with her roots, enriching her narrative with authenticity and emotion.The act of saying 'yes' to her grandmother's call led Brigid to rediscover her family's past and share it with the world through her writing.The conversation highlights the importance of reclaiming one's heritage and the stories that shape our identities across time and space.Find us on Apple, Spotify or your favorite listening platform; visit us on our YouTube channel Find everything "One More Thing" here: https://taplink.cc/beforeyougopodcastWant to be a guest on One More Thing Before You Go?

What if the places that carry humanity's deepest wounds also have the power to heal something within us?In this episode of One More Thing Before You Go, Michael welcomes poet, author, photographer, and adventurer Briana Gervat for a deeply reflective conversation about history, solitude, resilience, and the unexpected ways travel transforms us.In 2022, Briana set out alone on an extraordinary pilgrimage along the Western Front, walking hundreds of miles from the border of Switzerland and France, across the Vosges Mountains, and through the battle-scarred forests and villages where World War I forever changed the course of history. But this isn't simply a story about war. It's a story about what happens when we slow down enough to hear the whispers of the past—and our own hearts.Together, Michael and Briana explore what it means to walk alone through landscapes marked by unimaginable loss, how nature quietly teaches resilience, why solitude can become one of life's greatest companions, and how simple moments—sharing a meal, meeting a stranger, or following an unfamiliar path—can reconnect us with what truly matters.Whether you're drawn to history, travel, poetry, or the search for meaning, this conversation invites you to see the world—and perhaps yourself—with fresh eyes.In this episode, you'll discover:• Why walking through historic places changes the way we see ourselves• How solitude can become a source of strength instead of loneliness• What the landscapes of the Western Front still have to teach us today• The surprising connection between nature, memory, and healing• How travel can become a journey inward, not just across the worldSometimes the longest journey isn't measured in miles.It's measured in perspective.Find us on Apple, Spotify or your favorite listening platform; visit us on our YouTube channel Find everything "One More Thing" here: https://taplink.cc/beforeyougopodcastWant to be a guest on One More Thing Before You Go?

On a very special episode of the Take-Up podcast, Josh and Andrew peer into the memory palace of Sophy Romvari's semi-auto-biographical debut Blue Heron, giving their own two cents on one of the most acclaimed films of the year. Praising the introspection and heartbreak, they admire the dedication to the late-90s childhood period drama that manages to hold its own against the other semi-biographical late 90s childhood trauma drama they inevitably compare it to.Comparisons aside, prepare for a deep discussion about regret and loss for a movie that provides the most therapeutic Take-Up episode yet. Next, they have One More Thing, bringing up Kate Folk's objectophilic tale of love, sex, death, and plane crashes in her novel Sky Daddy, and Milagros Mumenthaler's hydrophobia-centered psychological drama The Currents.In two weeks, on the Take-Up's 105th episode (or 100th, according to JoshMath), our hosts will do the impossible and look back on their past talks and figure out if any of the films they discussed deserve a spot on the Take-Up Canon. Finally, they will answer the question: Does Gus van Sant's Psycho get to be in the canon?

A FILM! TWO CRITICS! A THOUGHT! A TALK! TO BREAK THE DISCOURSE OF NOLAN!After a decades-long journey of seeing Christopher Nolan's hot new Odyssey on the biggest available IMAX screen they could find, Joshicus and Andrewussy return to give their blessing over his take on the millennia-old tale. Tackling such a dense beast of a film, they get into Nolan's method of modernizing his adaptation, applying the biggest scope a 70mm IMAX camera could bring, and a lecture on Greek mythology and history by Professor Andrew. Follow Zeus's Law as our hosts decide if The Odyssey is a worthy step-up for Nolan or a rocky improvement in comparison to the rest of his films (Thankfully, it's not as horny as Oppenheimer). Next, they have One More Thing, recommending Parisian film tour Ciné-Balade (that's "ciné-walk," for the record, Josh) and customizable keyboard brand Lemokey.Next week, Josh and Andrew travel up the border to Canada and take a look at Sophy Romvari's acclaimed directorial debut Blue Heron.

What if the greatest lesson from Hollywood wasn't about making blockbuster movies—but about living a more focused, creative, and meaningful life?In this episode of One More Thing Before You Go, Michael welcomes Steven Puri, former EVP at DreamWorks and VP at 20th Century Fox, whose career helped shape iconic films including Transformers, Star Trek, Die Hard, and Independence Day. Yet the most compelling story isn't what happened behind the camera—it's what happened within.Steven shares an extraordinary journey from television news anchor to software engineer, from Oscar-winning visual effects producer to Hollywood executive, entrepreneur, and founder. Along the way, he opens up about selling his first company at 28, enduring the disappointment of failed startups, and discovering that success without purpose is never enough.Together, Michael and Steven explore why flow—that rare state where focus, creativity, and performance align—may be one of the most valuable skills we can cultivate in an age of constant distraction. They discuss how setbacks reshape identity, why failure often becomes our greatest teacher, and how purpose emerges when we stop chasing achievement and start pursuing what truly matters.Whether you're a creator, entrepreneur, leader, or simply searching for greater clarity and fulfillment, this conversation offers practical insights into unlocking your best work—and perhaps your best self.In this episode, you'll discover:Why flow states unlock peak creativity and performanceThe surprising lessons Hollywood taught about storytelling and human natureHow failure can become the catalyst for reinventionWhy focus is becoming one of the world's rarest—and most valuable—skillsPractical ways to create the conditions for deeper work, creativity, and fulfillmentSometimes the biggest breakthroughs don't happen on a movie set.

What if shifting the emotional tone of your home doesn't require a bigger to-do list, just a few small practices done differently? In this episode, I sit down with Julie Ross, creator of A Gentle Feast and host of The Homeschool Feast, who's spent over two decades homeschooling her five kids and studying something most of us never think to look at when our kids are struggling. We dig into what she calls the shame swamp and how it quietly pulls moms away from their kids at the exact moment they need us most, why your child's nervous system is picking up on yours even when you think you're hiding it well, and the small, doable practices that shift a home's emotional tone without adding one more thing to your plate. Your child's nervous system doesn't need a perfect house. It needs a calm one, and once you understand the difference, everything about how you show up starts to shift.

Before giving their take on Christopher Nolan's buzzy new Odyssey adaptation next week, Josh and Andrew go on their own epic journey back twenty years to look at one of his early hits among the cluster of 2006 magician thrillers, The Prestige! Diving headfirst into a tale of doubles, obsession, unsubtle foreshadowing, magic tricks, sacrifice, and David Bowie's attempt at a Serbian accent, they come out with varying degrees of appreciation. Watch closely as our hosts assess their thoughts around a filmmaker that has been extremely loved or hated through the years. Then, they have One More Thing, revealing Clive Barker's occult magician horror film Lord of Illusions alongside Leon Neyfakh and Gracie Canaan's investigative sex-work podcast OnlyFantasy.Next Week, see if our hosts think if Nolan's The Odyssey is a worthy gift or desecration of the Gods.

Here Christa turns to a different weight so many couples carry: what happens when the body is simply depleted, exhausted, touched-out, and running on empty, and sex stops feeling like connection and starts feeling like one more thing on an endless list. Going under the hood of the dual control model, she explains why exhaustion is one of the most powerful brakes on desire there is, why the depleted nervous system treats wanting as a luxury it cannot afford, and why being touched-out after a day of being physically needed is real and physiological, not a character flaw or a lack of love. She names the trap couples fall into, that adding pressure to something already felt as a task only presses the brake harder, and offers the real way back: reducing the load, protecting rest, sharing the mental and physical labor, reintroducing warm no-agenda touch, and reframing intimacy as restoration rather than one more output. Because you cannot guilt a depleted body into desire, you can only refill it and let desire return. Warm, freeing, and deeply practical for anyone in a full, weary season. Listen here!

What if the greatest challenges of your life were preparing you for your greatest purpose?Resilience isn't something we're born with—it is built through adversity, difficult choices, and the moments that quietly redefine who we become. In this cinematic conversation, Michael sits down with Jim Paulk to explore how life's unexpected setbacks can become the foundation for purpose, personal growth, and lasting strength.Jim shares the defining moments that tested his character, the lessons he learned when life refused to follow the script, and why resilience is less about surviving hardship than discovering who you become because of it. Together, Michael and Jim explore what it means to live intentionally, embrace uncertainty, and find meaning even in life's most difficult seasons.If you've ever questioned your direction, struggled through adversity, or wondered whether your hardest chapter has a greater purpose, this conversation offers hope, perspective, and practical wisdom you'll carry long after it ends.This episode explores resilience, purpose, overcoming adversity, personal growth, mindset, intentional living, and the courage to keep moving forward—even when the path isn't clear.One More Thing Before You Go is a cinematic interview podcast where every conversation begins with curiosity, deepens through presence, and reveals the stories that shape who we become.Find us on Apple, Spotify or your favorite listening platform; visit us on our YouTube channel Find everything "One More Thing" here: https://taplink.cc/beforeyougopodcastWant to be a guest on One More Thing Before You Go?

What happens when a man chooses to honor his late mother and grandmother by opening a restaurant run entirely by grandmothers?That question sparked one of our most beloved conversations — and inspired Nonna's, the heartwarming new film starring Vince Vaughn, Susan Sarandon, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, and Brenda Vaccaro.In this special Over the Teacup Sunday replay, Michael and Diane — joined by guest co‑host Nicole — revisit the extraordinary true story of Joe Scaravella, founder of Staten Island's iconic Enoteca Maria, where grandmothers from around the world cook the dishes of their heritage, one night at a time.This episode explores:Joe Scaravella's journey — how grief, love, and legacy led to a restaurant unlike any otherVince Vaughn's connection to the role and why he was the perfect choiceThe all‑star cast and the emotional weight each actor brings to this Italian‑American storyThe cultural power of food — and why Nonna's is more than a movie; it's a celebration of identity, memory, and the women who keep tradition aliveWhether you're discovering this story for the first time or revisiting it with us, this episode is filled with culture, heart, history, and the kind of warmth only a grandmother's kitchen can create.Find us on Apple, Spotify or your favorite listening platform; visit us on our YouTube channel Find everything "One More Thing" here: https://taplink.cc/beforeyougopodcastWant to be a guest on One More Thing Before You Go?

Artist and film scholar Isabelle Roig has been hacking into super secret Neil Breen-related databases, discovering more than any hacker ever has ever! Bravely disclosing it to twisted pair Josh and Andrew, what she has found will shock them. Taking a more fair reading on the “so-bad-it's-good” filmmaker, the trio try to make sense of his cult film Fateful Findings, unraveling all the genre-mashing, carpeted McMansion hospitals, vague conspiracies, and Breen's uncanny ability to force his young female co-stars into being attracted to him. Grab your magic rock and look into this cinematic funhouse mirror that gave our hosts something that can only be described as neo-Lynchian. Then, they have One More Thing, recommending film critic Alisha Mughal's It Can't Rain All the Time, a Pop Classics analysis on The Crow, and Burt Reynolds' action-packed “moonshine melodrama” White Lightning.Next week, in preparation for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, Josh and Andrew go back to one of his early works, the twisty and beloved magician thriller The Prestige (or was it The Illusionist?).Until then, read on at thetake-up.com and follow us @thetakeupstl on Instagram, Twitter, Letterboxd, and Facebook.

Subscribe to LMSU's Patreon for a chat on Diesel Fuel Tax Credits! This week our Bonus episode includes Alison, Frankie, Luke and Tennant breaking down what is going on with the various pushes to remove, reform - and preserve! - diesel fuel tax credits. Run, don't walk, over to www.letmesumup.net and subscribe to our Patreon to check it out. — Your intrepid welcome back super friend of the pod and sometime co-host Alison Reeve as we boot Luke out for a chat on two things LMSU's unimpeachable governance has determined he can have no say in! First up, it's been two laps around the sun since our deep dive into the 2024 Integrated System Plan and so into the 2026 ISP we must dive! What's different from the last one? Well, in news that some of us energy wotchers will find comforting, this is a bit more boring than the last ISP because the central scenario is broadly pretty consistent with the last one! Data centre load hype replaces hydrogen load hype, batteries continue to eat into the role for gas but a bit more gas capacity is needed - how to finance this remains a key question! We also ponder the extent to which constraints on the ISP to reflect current government policies well into the future and reflect vastly different pictures across states is at all realistic.  Our main course This Menzel-free main course is serving Big G GOVERNANCE as we tuck into Power Dynamics: Energy Governance in Australia, authored by long time climate and energy policy knower Rob Murray-Leach for the Energy Efficiency Council and RACE for 2030 CRC. It follows previous work from the EEC, ACOSS, Australian Industry Group and Property Council of Australia and contains a cornucopia of common sense ideas. Central to the reform philosophy proposed is a better balance of centralised and decentralised elements, and coordinating institutions and resources to focus on the tasks they're best suited to. Simples, right?   One more things Alison's One More Thing is: the NSW Government's current parliamentary inquiry into an EV road user charge and the potential for more constitutional challenges! Governments really need to decide who's doing what here (lookin at you Commonwealth). Tennant's One More Thing is: Blithering ballpark numbers for space-based sunshades (solar powersat and sailcraft versions!) to mask global warming, buying time for emissions reductions without spraying sulphur or diamond dust in the stratosphere.TL;DR is there are easier ways to solve climate change change guys. Frankie's One More Thing is: a HUMUNGOUS shoutout to all the folks who have been working on and advocating for a national home energy rating system for the last two decades - it is finally here! Go check it out at https://www.homeenergyrating.gov.au/. Now let's giddyup on mandatory disclosure please! Luke's One More Thing is: Pauline Hanson's National Press Club address. Compulsory viewing for climate and energy wonks concerned with understanding the seismic shifts in Australian politics and how this impacts efforts to combat climate change.

What if the future isn't something we're trying to predict... but something we're trying to understand about ourselves?The stories we tell about tomorrow often reveal more about today than we realize.In this thoughtful conversation, Michael sits down with author and cultural thinker Amy Bernstein to explore why speculative fiction has become one of the most powerful ways to make sense of an uncertain world. Together, they examine how imagination helps us process fear, hope, identity, and the questions that refuse to leave us alone.Their conversation moves beyond books into something deeply human—why creativity matters when the world feels unsettled, what art can say that facts alone never can, and how the stories we create often become the mirrors that help us recognize ourselves.Along the way, they explore:• Why speculative fiction is having a cultural moment.• How imagined futures help us navigate real-world uncertainty.• The courage it takes to keep creating when doubt is loud.• Why artists often challenge the stories society tells us to accept.• What fiction reveals about identity, belonging, and the future we're quietly building together.If you've ever wondered why certain stories stay with you long after you've closed the book, this conversation offers an answer—and perhaps a few new questions worth carrying with you.Because sometimes the most revealing stories aren't about the future at all.They're about who we're becoming.Find us on Apple, Spotify or your favorite listening platform; visit us on our YouTube channel Find everything "One More Thing" here: https://taplink.cc/beforeyougopodcastWant to be a guest on One More Thing Before You Go?

Some lives force us to ask uncomfortable questions: Who decides who we become? What happens when the identities we've built our lives around suddenly disappear? And how do we begin again without pretending the past never happened?In this thoughtful, unhurried conversation, Michael sits down with Hakeem Bourne McFarlane, founder of the Choose Yourself movement, to explore identity, belonging, resilience, and the quiet work of becoming whole.Growing up mixed-race in a home marked by addiction and silence, Hakeem learned early to earn acceptance instead of expecting it. Athletics became his purpose. Achievement became his language. But after five knee surgeries, chronic pain, addiction, and ultimately incarceration, the life he'd built around performance came undone.What followed wasn't a dramatic overnight transformation—it was something far more difficult: radical honesty.Together, Michael and Hakeem explore how identity is shaped by family, culture, trauma, and expectation; why discipline can become a pathway to freedom; and what it truly means to choose yourself—not as a slogan, but as a daily practice.A cinematic, deeply human conversation about belonging, self-worth, and the stories we inherit—and the ones we decide to write for ourselves.Find us on Apple, Spotify or your favorite listening platform; visit us on our YouTube channel Find everything "One More Thing" here: https://taplink.cc/beforeyougopodcastWant to be a guest on One More Thing Before You Go?

This week, Andrew and Josh take a trip down to 70s Watts to talk about Charles Burnett's slice-of-life masterpiece Killer of Sheep! Going into a film all about "This Bitter Earth", they analyze the down-to-earth quality and humor Burnett brings into his potentially woeful premise, the hidden impact Killer of Sheep had over the decades, its scattered release history, and if it's the most definitively American film ever made (New York Times recently seems to think so). Then, they go into One More Thing, recommending AppleTV's hit horror-comedy show Widow's Bay, and a new Vulture interview with Odyssey translator Emily Wilson, “No One Has Dealt With More Angry Odyssey Bros Than Emily Wilson”. Next week, our hosts bring out guest/filmmaker Emile Parseghian to talk about WWII thriller Army of Shadows.
