Property headlines may be screaming "crash", but Australia's real estate market is far more complex than the news suggests – and investors who rely on the headlines risk missing the bigger picture. On The Smart Property Investment Show, Liam Garman is joined by Results Mentoring founding mentors Simon Buckingham and Brendan Kelly to discuss what's really happening across Australia's property markets and why broad market commentary often misses the mark. The pair argue there is no single Australian property market, but thousands of individual markets moving for different reasons. They explain why investors should ignore sensational headlines and instead focus on local supply, demand, infrastructure, vacancy rates, and economic fundamentals when making investment decisions. The conversation also examines how higher interest rates, changing tax policies, and shifting buyer sentiment are affecting different parts of the country, with some markets cooling while others continue to present strong opportunities. Buckingham and Kelly also share the key indicators they monitor before buying property, explaining how data-driven research can help investors identify resilient suburbs, avoid underperforming markets, and make better long-term investment decisions.

As unit commander in the largest homicide squad in the country, Hank Idsinga has seen more than most people would ever want to. He discusses with Brian what it's really like in blue, the many things that are done right, and the many things done wrong, including the recent exposé of corruption by some Toronto officers. The author of the new book The High Road: Confessions of a Homicide Cop, Idsinga reveals the vitriolic antisemitism he saw on the force, and discusses the “abysmal” handling of anti-Israel demonstrators in Toronto. He also busts myths about purported low crime rates and politically popular gun bans, and explains how real policing is nothing like those shows on TV.

Do you hit a wall every afternoon around 2 or 3 p.m.? If your energy disappears, your brain gets foggy, and you need caffeine or sugar just to finish the day, it isn't a lack of willpower—it's a sign that something deeper is driving your energy crash. In this episode, I explain the three biggest drivers of the afternoon slump and the simple changes that can help you maintain steady energy all day long. In today's episode, I discuss: The three hidden causes of the afternoon energy crash Why skipping breakfast, relying on coffee, sugary smoothies, or carb-heavy meals sets you up for an inevitable drop in energy later in the day How to build meals with protein, healthy fats, and fiber to stabilize blood sugar and create lasting energy instead of quick spikes and crashes Simple daily habits that can dramatically improve your energy and focus That afternoon crash isn't something you have to accept as part of modern life. When you stabilize your blood sugar, support your body's natural rhythms, and reduce chronic stress, your energy becomes more consistent, your focus improves, and you stop relying on caffeine and willpower just to make it through the day.

Something goes wrong in bed and gay men immediately blame desire, performance, or themselves. Sex educator and trauma specialist Fran Frye says they're diagnosing the wrong problem. The real issue is the nervous system — and most men have no idea it's running the show. Rick and Fran dig into the five nervous system responses that hijack sexual experiences, why porn is an idea not a manual, and how shame quietly replaces honest communication for gay men over 40. This is not a conversation about dysfunction. It's about finally understanding what your body has been trying to tell you. Key Takeaways: Why "erectile difficulties" are almost always psychological, not physicalHow fight, flight, freeze, fawn, and fuck responses show up during sexThe difference between consent and compliance, and why it mattersWhy gay men struggle more than most with saying noWhat emotional literacy actually looks like in an intimate encounterHow to pause high arousal states before they run the show About Fran Fran Frye works at the intersection of sexuality, trauma, and compassion, with a particular focus on supporting men as they unpack their sexuality within a patriarchal culture that often labels them as dangerous, defective, or emotionally closed off. She helps dismantle these narratives through curiosity, empathy and practical tools that foster healthier relationships with the body, partners and self. A certified Sex Educator, Counselor, and Clinician trained in compulsive sexual behaviors, Fran is also a somatic sex practitioner. Her work spans sexual shame, trauma, grief, relationship rupture and body disconnection, grounded in both professional training and lived experience as a sexual assault survivor, former military spouse, and athlete. Beyond her professional work, Fran is deeply committed to service. Over the years she has volunteered in several areas of crisis and community support, including suicide prevention, rape victim's advocacy, human trafficking prevention, and serving as a rape crisis hotline operator. She has also contributed to efforts addressing food scarcity, sits with hospice patients in their final chapters, and supports Veterans and their families. These experiences have brought her into close contact with trauma, grief, courage, and resilience - insights she carries directly into the compassionate, grounded way she supports others.

Up to 70% of people say they have sensitive skin — but is it really a diagnosis, or something else entirely? Dr. Patti Farris and Dr. Ted Lain break down the biology dermatologists are still trying to figure out. In this episode of the Science of Skin Podcast, Patti and Ted dig into a 15,000+ person global study on sensitive skin prevalence, and explore the science behind why skin reacts with no visible cause — covering TRPV1 and TRPA1 receptor activity, neuropeptide release (substance P, CGRP), and the connection to rosacea. They also unpack the exposome: how pollution, UV exposure, hormones, menopause, and the skin microbiome all play a role, including a deep dive into aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) activation and inflammation. The episode closes with a new comparative cleanser study using D-Squame tape stripping and colorimetric index of mildness (SIM) testing, showing how Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser performs against other "gentle" cleansers on the market.

This episode explores how a sense of righteousness, fear of failing as a parent, the desire to avoid rejection and unresolved wounds from one's own upbringing can fuel rigid parenting patterns.

Elizabeth Tsurkov has spent years doing what most researchers only read about — traveling into conflict zones, sitting with militia commanders, and listening to the people living inside the stories we think we understand. A doctoral candidate at Princeton and fellow at both the Middle East Policy Council in Washington and the Forum for Regional Thinking in Jerusalem, she is one of the sharpest independent voices on the Arab world today. In 2023, while conducting field research in Iraq, she was abducted by an Iranian-backed militia and held for 903 days before being released in 2025. In this conversation, she reflects on that heartbreaking experience — and on what Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and the wider Middle East actually look like up close, beyond the headlines and the misconceptions that keep getting in the way.Chapters:00:00 Introduction01:45 Surviving 903 Days in Captivity03:43 The Dissertation That Kept Her Going12:04 Inside Iraq's Corruption Machine15:49 What Iraq Is Really Like30:29 Was It Worth Going to Iraq?34:26 How Captivity Changed Elizabeth Tsurkov40:00 What's Really Happening in Syria?51:03 Is Syria's New Leader Still a Jihadist?56:08 Is Peace Between Israel and Syria Possible?

Inde Navarrette's work in Obsession is shaping up to be the biggest breakout performance of 2026.

Much to Bear's surprise, the Willow works and he gets the girl of his dreams. But, it comes at a cost.What exactly does the One Wish Willow do to Nikki?

Fatigue can feel confusing when you're getting sleep but still waking up tired, irritable, foggy, or emotionally drained. If you're a high-achieving woman juggling work, family, stress, hormones, gut health, and the mental load of "doing it all," this episode will help you understand why your exhaustion may be about more than sleep. In this conversation, I'm joined by Dr. Nikia Smith, a board-certified anesthesiologist who has experienced burnout twice. We talk about the slow build of burnout, why so many women miss the early signs, and how chronic stress can impact energy, hormone balance, metabolism, digestion, brain fog, and weight loss resistance. In this episode, you'll hear: • Why fatigue that sleep doesn't fix may be a sign of emotional and nervous system overload. • The early "simmering pot" signs of burnout high-achieving women often ignore. • How irritability, decision fatigue, and autopilot living can signal deeper exhaustion. • Why self-care alone is not enough without boundaries, values, and support. • How learning to say no and delegate can help protect your energy and health. This episode is for the woman who looks like she has it all together but feels depleted behind the scenes. If you've been blaming yourself for low energy, brain fog, stress, digestive issues, or hormonal imbalance, this conversation will help you see your fatigue differently — and understand what your body may be trying to tell you.

In this part 2 episode, Lindsey Castleman and Aron Strong dive deeper into the perpetual victim pattern by examing how unhealed experiences from the past continue to shape the present. They discuss the power of returning to those places with compassion through inviting Christ in, taking ownership for your healing, and strengthening self-leadership so you can respond with greater freedom rather than remaining stuck in survival.  

Is private credit the pin that pops the market bubble? The short answer is no—but that’s the wrong question entirely. Private credit is now a $1.8–$3.5 trillion market, rivaling the entire U.S. leveraged loan and high-yield bond markets combined. It’s direct lending, shadow banking, and middle-market finance all rolled into one, and firms like Ares, Apollo, Blackstone, Blue Owl, and Morgan Stanley are at the center of it. Business development companies (BDCs), are gating redemptions. Pension funds, insurance companies, and retail investors are all exposed. And the Financial Stability Board issued a formal warning in May 2026. So what is private credit, how did it get this big, and what does it actually mean for the broader economy if it seizes up? In this episode, Max breaks down the entire private credit ecosystem—from its origins in post-2008 regulation to the mechanics of SOFR-linked floating rate loans, PIK interest, covenant-lite structures, and the $410–$540 billion in bank lending that ties the whole system together. We look at the BDC redemption crisis of 2025 and 2026, the First Brands and TriColor fraud cases and Jamie Dimon’s cockroach comment that won’t go away. Resources J.P.

welcoming for the first time CEO of The Spearhed journalist David HundeyinThe geopolitical landscape of the Sahel region

Every day, the headlines demand our attention. Wars, shifting alliances, rising violence, and growing hostility toward Israel. The real answers may not be where most people are looking. As the world continues to change, as Christians, we need more than breaking news. We need biblical discernment. Understanding the times requires looking beyond the headlines, recognizing the larger geopolitical shifts taking place, and filtering everything through the truth of God's Word.There is a bigger story unfolding, one that reaches far beyond Israel, Iran and the Middle East. From the rise of terrorism in unexpected regions to changing relationships between nations and the increasing persecution of Christians around the world, these developments remind us that Scripture has never been out of step with history.If you're passionate about Bible prophecy, Israel, current events, and developing a biblical worldview, subscribe and join us each week for conversations that help make sense of today's world through the lens of Scripture.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Send us Fan Mail**Content warning: this episode contains discussion of domestic and sexual abuse and child removal see below for support links***This is the first in a two-part series, produced in partnership with the non-profit organisation Right to Equality, where we look into the shocking subject of child removal in private family proceedings in England and Wales. To help me understand more about this phenomenon I'm joined by three impressive guests:Dr Charlotte Proudman, women's rights barrister, Founder of Right to Equality, and author of the book “He Said, She Said” recalls how she represented a 15 year old girl we call “Florence”. Charlotte talks about Florence's remarkable courage in independently fighting to return to her mum in the High Court, after she was removed from her aged 10. “He Said, She Said” is out now in paperback. You can read more about Florence's case in an article by The Bureau of Investigative Journalism here. Professor Jo Delahunty KC is a leading silk in both public and private law cases.

She shares her personal experience and work in uncovering the harmful practices of experts and her hopes for imminent change. To learn more about the work of Right to Equality and read reporting from the family courts visit: www.righttoequality.org SupportI provide free weekly online group support sessions.

Dry mouth and drooling can both happen in Parkinson's disease—and surprisingly, they're often connected. By the way, Biotene rinse can be a great tool to use with dry mouth. Here is a link to Biotene on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4tuKAoj In this episode (watch here on YouTube), we break down why saliva problems occur in Parkinson's, how they affect speech, swallowing, comfort, and confidence, and why oral health matters far more than most people realize. We cover: • Dry mouth vs. drooling in Parkinson's • Why both problems can happen at the same time • How saliva issues affect communication and swallowing • Oral bacteria, dental health, and aspiration risk • Why oral care is so important in Parkinson's • Practical strategies to help manage these symptoms safely We also explain the important connection between oral health and aspiration pneumonia risk, one of the most serious complications associated with swallowing difficulties. If you or someone you care about is dealing with drooling, dry mouth, coughing during meals, or frequent throat clearing, this episode will help connect the dots and provide practical next steps.  

Lindsey Castleman and Aron Strong continue their series "What's Really Happening with..." Listen in to learn about working with "the perpetual victim." They share what it looks like when someone lives in a state of victimhood and whether they show this either overtly or covertly. 

The Iraq War didn't just “happen” it was sold with a storyline, staffed by specific operators, and justified by a strategy that had been circulating for years. I'm joined by Scott Horton of the Libertarian Institute to unpack the Clean Break doctrine, what it tried to achieve for Israel's right wing security vision, and how a set of wildly wrong assumptions helped push the US into a war that ended up strengthening Iran instead of containing it. We walk through the mechanics of how the war case was built: exile sourcing, the Office of Special Plans, alternative intelligence streams, and the WMD and terrorism claims that made Baghdad sound like an urgent threat. Then we connect the fallout to today's Middle East power map, where leaders are still trying to “fix” the original mistake, often by escalating in new arenas. Scott also explains why Israel's objectives toward Iran can look less like clean regime change and more like limiting Iran's ability to support Hezbollah and project power into the Levant, even if that means betting on destabilization. From there we shift to the Trump era crisis: ceasefire fragility, Iran's demand to release frozen assets as a trust test, and the hard technical reality behind the slogans about nuclear enrichment. We also talk about how Lebanon, Gaza, and the West Bank remain active fronts that can sabotage diplomacy at any moment, and what it would take for Washington to actually restrain Netanyahu if a real US-Iran deal is the goal.

Since the illegal U.S. abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and First Combatant Cilia Flores, Global North commentators have rushed to declare the Bolivarian Revolution betrayed or defeated. The recent extradition of Alex Saab has only intensified these accusations.  In this episode, Chavista intellectuals Cira Pascual and Chris Gilbert discuss Venezuela's new reality and the tendency of Global North observers to interpret the Bolivarian process through abstract ideological schemas rather than its concrete historical development.

What's really happening during a spiritual crisis, and what is "ego death"? In this second installment of my "Navigating the Spiritual Crisis" series, we'll explore: what is the spiritual crisis or spiritual awakening? how the spiritual crisis tends to dissolve or break apart the ego, and how this can feel as you're going through it the problem of ego identification: when you feel & believe you ARE your ego, and nothing more why we resist or get stuck in the process of ego death the psychospiritual practice of dis-identifying from ego as a form of powerful self-liberation allowing & welcoming ego death to happen, so you can re-align with your most authentic Self (and get out of suffering)   In this podcast series, we explore what the spiritual crisis or awakening really is, how it can look and feel, and how you can best navigate it... without self-sabotage, fear, or feeling like you're "going crazy".  Ultimately, the spiritual crisis is your true Self calling you back home. It's a powerful opportunity to shed the old masks, identities, and roles you've been playing or wearing... so you can embody your FULL human & Divine self in this lifetime, and be authentically who you really are. Join me for a no-nonsense, grounded, transformative exploration of the spiritual awakening process and an empowering approach to the dark night of the Soul.
