Hello, and welcome to the Cinema Australia Podcast. In this episode, I'm joined by Within the Pines writer and director Paul Evans Thomas, who gives us a great insight into the making of his unmissable new film. There's no need for me to bang on about why I loved this film so much—because I do enough of that throughout this episode—but I do urge you not to sleep on Within the Pines. It's an excellent film that I hope people enjoy as much as I did. Within the Pines follows Sam Evans, played by Brendan Cooney, an experienced sound recordist who travels to an isolated forest in order to capture sounds far away from the noise of civilisation. As Sam ventures deeper, his mic picks up a sound no one wants to hear while alone in the woods. Paul Evans Thomas is an Adelaide-based filmmaker and verified YouTuber with over 360,000 subscribers to date on his channel Paul E.T., where he dissects the ins and outs of filmmaking. Paul has been obsessed with film since he was big enough to hold a camera—specifically the thriller/horror genre. An obsession that, combined with his experience in post-production, has helped bring to life the story of Within the Pines. Anyway… enjoy.
Sam Evans himself is back on the pod! Chord Overstreet joins Jenna and Kevin to share his memories of season five, including what it was like shooting in NY, reflecting on some of the riskier and crazier moments of the show, the actor he would channel when he needed to "go big," and what it took to stay in ab-solutely great shape for those shirtless scenes. Plus, he spills on the story behind his new single and the new music on the way, working with Ryan Murphy again on the medical drama "Dr. Odyssey" and some insider news on the fourth season of Apple TV's "Acapulco!"

Darlaine Honey is a Sexual Health Advisor working with Berkshire Healthcare and lives in Surrey, South of England. Having been diagnosed with lobular breast cancer, she is also an advocate for Breast Cancer Now on the workflow task force plus Breast Cancer Now / Ann Summers/My ViV collaboration for sex after breast cancer. During the COVID lockdown, Darlaine and some friends formed the charity Lobular Breast Cancer so that other women could learn more about it.As is evident from our discussion and from previous discussions I've had with those working in the area of sexual health, both in the UK and in the US, there's not enough being done to support older people to have a healthier and happier sex life. There's an assumption that sexual health advisors are there to support younger people. At the same time, the stats reveal that more older people are presenting with STDs than ever before, thanks to escalating divorce rates and the opportunity through dating apps and elsewhere for sexual encounters. I also learned, towards the end of our conversation, of the impact of drugs used to treat breast cancer on women's sexual health and was shocked to discover how they may contribute to vaginal atrophy and a significant decline in libido and sensitivity, none of which patients are commonly told when undergoing treatment. My friend Sam Evans, who runs a sex toy shop called Jo Divine, has spoken via her social media channels about ‘medical misogyny' and, in talking with Darlaine, it's clear how much more needs to be done to ensure women receive the information we all deserve to make educated decisions about our overall wellbeing which includes our sexual health. If you'd like to learn more about Darlaine's work, you can reach her on LinkedIn.Show your support for Lobular Breast Cancer here:https://lobularbreastcancer.org.uk/darlaine-honey/Sex Advice for Seniors is a reader-supported publication.

And of course, I will share stories from the people in our community.So that together we can work towards a better menopause experience.

In episode 230 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked back in with Sam Evans. Sam is a mental health advocate and works in the healthcare industry. He first came on the podcast way back when in JCIP #31. In Part 1, we discussed his exposure to mental illness when one of his friends tragically took his own life and it ignited his desire to help men with their mental health. He has since put his words into action and took part in mental health campaign ‘Movember' several times and was recently made lead of his internal mental health group at work. In Part 2, we discuss that promotion, how his understanding of mental health and mental illness has changed and how he has learned more about his own mental health in the last three years. We also discuss the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on his mental health and when is the right time to healthily detach from supporting someone's mental health? This is an uncomfortable conversation the mainstream mental health conversation refuses to have because the ugly side of mental illness isn't surface-level awareness campaigns. Sometimes mental health support requires huge levels of patience, perseverance and the awareness to recognise there may come a point when a person needs to take personal responsibility for their mental health. As always, #itsokaytovent You can listen to Part 1 of Sam's journey here: https://soundcloud.com/venthelpuk/jcip-31-sam-evans You can follow Sam on social media below: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sam_evans23/ Support Us: Patreon: www.patreon.com/venthelpuk GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com/f/help-vent-supp…ir-mental-health Merchandise: www.redbubble.com/people/VentUK/shop Music: @patawawa - Strange: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d70wfeJSEvk

Since the original publication date of Love Letters in 2011, Clint and Sam Evans' family has grown, totaling three heaven-born babies and three beautiful, earth-born daughters. In 2017, Evans co-authored three versions of Adventure Devos with professional writer, photographer, certified white-water rafter and hang-from-mountain-upside-downer, Eric Sprinkle. Sam's “Ad Dev” contributions, detailing vivid descriptions of leeches, the polar plunge, skydiving and chasing a wolf through the woods, focused more on what not to do in the wilderness. In 2018, Evans won back-to-back “Writer of the Month” awards through Good Catch Publishing.

As with Love Letters, Evans continues to convey the truth with humor, transparency and love in the midst of her grief and loss, conveying the most important message of all: you are worthy, so, so worthy of God's love. ake sure to check out this episode

The Brainy Business | Understanding the Psychology of Why People Buy | Behavioral Economics
Do you want people to be more likely to follow whatever rules, policies, or procedures you create? It's time to make them more human. Understanding and empathizing with the perspectives of others plays a crucial role in effective rule adherence. Comprehending the dynamics of rules can lead to beneficial outcomes in various aspects of life, from lessening conflicts to fostering compliance within organizational settings. Those who understand and communicate the reasons behind their rules are more likely to gain cooperation from those affected. It also helps reduce misunderstanding and resistance, promoting a smoother and more efficient implementation of rules or policies. Guest Christian Hunt, during his conversation with Melina Palmer, explained his thoughts on this matter, drawing on his experience as the founder of Human Risk, host of the Human Risk podcast and author of Humanizing Rules. Hunt believes that, to instill rule adherence, it is important to understand the perspectives of individuals subjected to those rules. He also iterated the need for effective communication, emphasizing that rules are more likely to be accepted and adhered to when individuals understand the rationale behind them. Christian introduces his HUMANS framework during the conversation, and shares interesting, real-world examples from transportation, Netflix, and more. In this episode: Understand the relevance of emotional intelligence and empathy in compliance with rules. Acquire knowledge about the role of clear communication in improving rule compliance. Analyze the issues linked with changing speed limits and the crucial role of enlightenment. Appreciate the need to present regulatory efforts as advantageous and pertinent to the workforce. Learn Christian's HUMANS framework and how to start using it in your business. Show Notes: 00:00:00 - Introduction, Melina Palmer introduces Christian Hunt, the founder of Human Risk, a company that specializes in using behavioral science to manage the risks of human decision-making. Christian shares his background in financial services and regulation, which led him to focus on the human side of compliance and ethics. 00:02:20 - Unique Perspective from Regulation to Compliance, Christian discusses his unique experience of transitioning from a regulator to a compliance professional, allowing him to see both sides of the problem when he had to enforce his own rules (and realized they didn't align properly). He emphasizes the importance of understanding the reasons behind rules and regulations in order to effectively manage them. 00:05:57 - Applying Behavioral Science to Ethics and Compliance, Christian explains how his experience in risk and compliance led him to realize the relevance of behavioral science in influencing human decision-making. He shares his mission to help organizations use behavioral science to get the best out of their people while mitigating risks. 00:08:03 - Navigating "Weird" Rules, Christian provides advice for individuals who find themselves dealing with rules that seem strange or unnecessary. He suggests understanding the reasons behind the rules and considering whether they serve a genuine purpose. Having a dialogue and presenting alternative perspectives can be helpful in managing such rules. 00:11:41 - Balancing Compliance with Dialogue, Christian acknowledges that in tightly regulated industries, dialogue may not always be possible. However, for those who can engage in discussions, he emphasizes the importance of approaching the conversation with empathy and understanding of the other party's perspective. 00:12:37 - Understanding the Fundamental Attribution Error, Christian Hunt discusses the difficulty of putting oneself in someone else's shoes and the tendency to blame others instead of seeking to understand their rationale. He emphasizes the importance of pausing and considering where others may be coming from in order to find better solutions. 00:13:30 - The Importance of Questioning What is Normal, Christian highlights the concept of "normal" and how rules and expectations are often based on extreme, non-common examples. He shares a story about his train journey and the importance of understanding the rationale behind rules. He initially dismissed the need for bag labels, but a staff member explained that they were necessary in case of train evacuation. This experience taught him the importance of not making presumptions and considering the reasoning behind rules. 00:18:25 - Learning from Mistakes and the Dunning-Kruger Effect, Christian discusses the Dunning-Kruger effect and admits to falling victim to it himself. He shares a story about a rule regarding variable speed limits on roads, where drivers often question the need to slow down. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing that rules are often in place for valid reasons, even if they may not be immediately apparent. 00:24:53 - The Frustration with Rules, Christian discusses how rules can be frustrating when they are imposed due to the actions of others. He highlights the need for clear communication and understanding between authorities and the people being controlled. 00:25:49 - Societal Reasons for Rules, Christian acknowledges that some rules are put in place for the greater good, such as slowing down traffic for the safety of elderly drivers. He emphasizes the importance of considering the rationale behind rules and whether they apply to specific subsets of the population. 00:26:39 - The Challenge of Communicating Rules, Christian recognizes the challenge that authorities face in communicating the reasons behind certain rules. He believes that authorities should be more transparent and ethical in their communication, especially in democratic societies. 00:28:00 - The Employment Contract Fallacy, Christian discusses the fallacy of relying solely on the employment contract as a reason for imposing rules. He argues that just because authorities have the power to enforce rules doesn't mean they should, and they should consider the perspective of those being controlled. 00:31:02 - Differentiating Between Rules, Christian explains the importance of distinguishing between rules that are irrecoverable (serious violations) and rules that are recoverable (less serious violations). He uses Netflix's approach of focusing efforts on irrecoverable actions as an example of effective rule implementation. 00:37:23 - Understanding Requirements and Imposing Tasks, The importance of understanding requirements and tasks from both the perspective of the person giving the task and the person receiving it. It is crucial to ensure that the person giving the task understands what they are asking for and the potential challenges involved. Imposing tasks without understanding can lead to frustration and inefficiency. 00:38:09 - Recognizing Risk and Impact on Employees, It is essential to recognize the potential risks and impact of imposing tasks on employees. If a task is likely to be unhelpful and difficult for the employee to understand, it poses a higher risk. Employers should consider whether the benefits outweigh the potential negative impact on employee relationships and trust. 00:39:30 - Using Behavioral Science as a Design Tool, Behavioral science can be used as a design or diagnostic tool to improve task implementation. If reality cannot be changed, the perception of a task can be altered through framing or breaking it down into smaller, more manageable tasks. Understanding the impact and finding ways to make tasks more user-friendly is crucial. 00:40:43 - The Pitfalls of Compliance Training, Compliance training exercises often fall short in effectively teaching and assessing employee understanding. Testing employees on obscure information that is unlikely to be relevant to their job can lead to frustration and a sense of wasted time. Employers should reconsider the purpose and effectiveness of compliance training exercises. 00:49:38 - Introduction to Incentives, Companies often use incentives, such as prize drawings, to encourage customers to fill out surveys. The same principle applies to employees in the workplace. Incentives can increase compliance and the quality of work. 00:50:22 - Importance of Incentives, Incentives are crucial for tasks that require a high standard of work. If people don't see the value in doing something, they are less likely to do it. Consider what's in it for them as an individual and find ways to make tasks feel worth doing. 00:51:11 - Feasibility of Compliance, Consider whether it is feasible for individuals to comply with a rule or task. If something is too difficult or requires significant effort, compliance is less likely. Make tasks easier to increase compliance. 00:52:02 - Acceptability of Rules, Just because a rule can be imposed doesn't mean it will be accepted. Consider whether employees find a rule acceptable based on their specific circumstances and employment. Overreach can lead to resistance. 00:53:44 - Social Proof and Normalcy, The perception of what is normal and acceptable plays a role in compliance. Consider social proof and whether other people in similar circumstances are being asked to do the same thing. Make rules salient and relevant to increase compliance. 00:56:04 - Conclusion, Melina's top insights from the conversation. What stuck with you while listening to the episode?

The Brainy Business | Understanding the Psychology of Why People Buy | Behavioral Economics
The core idea of multi-narrative storytelling involves identifying a central message or concept that resonates with the audience and then expanding on it through a series of complementary stories. While each narrative can stand alone, together they create a comprehensive and compelling representation of the brand's identity and message. Two major brands that have successfully utilized multi-narrative storytelling in their marketing campaigns are Nike and Apple. Both brands have managed to create a global impact with their advertisements, encouraging consumers to connect with the brand on a personal level. By using multiple storylines, these giants have enabled their campaigns to resonate with a wide range of individuals, allowing for broader appeal and deeper emotional connections. During the podcast, Melina and Dr. Troy Campbell discuss how both Nike's "Just Do It" and Apple's "Think Different" campaigns are prime examples of effective multi-narrative storytelling. Companies can learn valuable lessons from these successful brands and apply the same techniques to their own business strategies. This episode will help you to: Uncover the power of multi-narrative storytelling in enhancing brand communication. Master the art of crafting a compelling personal brand identity through diverse stories. Grasp the importance of themes, metaphors, and language in creating engaging narratives. Cater to diverse customer groups by implementing a multi-narrative approach. Gain insights from storytelling techniques employed by successful companies. Show Notes: 00:00:00 - Introduction, Dr. Troy Campbell is back on The Brainy Business podcast (one of our few three-peat guests!) to talk about multi-narrative storytelling, building on his background as a former Disney Imagineer and Netflix Consumer Insights employee. 00:05:02 - Shades of Black, Troy talks about how Netflix uses different shades of black to differentiate importance cues on their platform. 00:11:19 - Definition of Multi-Narrative Storytelling, Multi-narrative storytelling involves telling a core story or idea through multiple complementary narratives. Nike and Apple's famous ad campaigns, "Just Do It" and "Think Different," are examples of multi-narrative storytelling. 00:13:48 - Nike and Apple as Examples, The "Think Different" campaign started as a multi-narrative by showcasing the “misfits” and “rebels” who changed the world. 00:15:10 - The Power of Multi-Narrative Storytelling, Multi-narrative storytelling is about getting a core idea across. It involves creating a core story that is the center of your messaging, which is surrounded by different stories that are used to convey your message. This technique involves using narratives that have associations with your brand that the audience will recognize. (As an example in the Apple campaign, showing a picture of Einstein is powerful because of the associations we all have with him and what his image means.) 00:16:52 - Core Idea of Multi-Narrative Storytelling, The core idea of multi-narrative storytelling is to create a cause-and-effect story. It involves telling a story that explains who you are and what you're trying to achieve, and then surrounding that story with other narratives that support your message. You can use existing stories or create original ones. 00:19:15 - Using Existing Stories as Associations, Multi-narrative storytelling can involve using existing stories as associations to convey your message. This technique involves using stories that your audience is already familiar with and borrowing elements of those stories to support your message. This approach makes it easier for your audience to understand and relate to your message. 00:22:28 - The Power of Metaphor and Semiotics, Metaphor, semiotics, and word choice allow for a deeper level of understanding of how to convey messages. Using these techniques and creating a multi-narrative story around them can make the messaging more powerful and effective. 00:30:36 - Multi-Narrative Storytelling, The concept of multi-narrative storytelling involves creating a core story with multiple examples or narratives that support it. This approach allows for flexibility in communication and can be used to convey complex or abstract ideas. Multi-narrative storytelling is useful in branding, marketing, and other areas of business where a clear and compelling message is necessary. 00:32:19 - Just Do It, Nike's "Just Do It" slogan is specific enough to be relatable and broad enough to appeal to a wide range of audiences. This approach can be applied to other branding or marketing efforts by creating a core story that is supported by multiple narratives or examples. 00:38:01 - Branding, Effective branding involves creating a core story that is supported by multiple narratives or examples. This approach allows for flexibility in communication and can help to appeal to a wider range of audiences. The branding of The Brainy Business podcast is an example of this approach, using a fun and relatable logo to convey complex ideas. 00:41:29 - Thesis and Proof, Effective marketing involves creating a clear thesis and using specific examples to prove it. This approach can be used to convey complex or abstract ideas to a wider audience. The selection of imagery, titles, and stories should support the thesis and help to prove its validity. 00:47:12 - The Power of Storytelling, The way Troy implements his “scientific mind and artistic heart” approach can help businesses understand and leverage techniques from other companies like Disney or Nike to improve their own storytelling strategies. 00:47:43 - Multi-Narrative Storytelling, Companies can use multi-narrative storytelling to tie together narratives within their own organization, for the benefit of both customers and employees. Understanding the stories woven within a brand is essential for weaving them together to make a great brand. 00:48:37 - Related Episodes, Other podcast episodes relating to storytelling include David Paull on behavioral storytelling, Dr. Michelle Auerbach, and Sam Evans.

The Brainy Business | Understanding the Psychology of Why People Buy | Behavioral Economics
In order to design effective solutions, businesses need to have a clear understanding of the different types of decisions their customers make. Not all decisions are created equal, and handling them differently ensures better outcomes. Companies should avoid applying a one-size-fits-all approach, instead aiming for a tailored response that addresses the specific needs of each consumer decision. By having a better grasp of decision-making processes, businesses can create products, services, and experiences that truly resonate with their audiences. In this episode of The Brainy Business podcast, Sam Evans emphasizes the importance of diagnosing the decision before prescribing a solution. Instead of providing a standard response to every challenge or query, businesses should seek to comprehend the decision type, the question being asked, and the desired outcomes. Evans highlights that businesses must go beyond just addressing jobs to be done but also consider the deeper aspirations and self-identity of customers. Uncover the pivotal role of the decision-making process in designing impactful solutions. Create a practical decision spectrum to categorize customer decision-making styles. Engage customers effectively while providing answers that direct them to optimal choices. Explore the power of weaving engaging stories and emotions into the decision-making framework. Devise immersive experiences that naturally drive customer engagement without forcefulness. Show Notes: 00:00:00 - Introduction, Sam Evans, founder and CEO of Design for Decision, talks about his background in brand strategy and innovation and his passion for helping teams design products, services, and experiences that change behavior and drive growth. 00:03:40 - From Reputation Management to Behavioral Science, Sam shares how his career has been about designing for behavior change, starting with reputation management and public affairs, then moving to brand strategy and innovation at Pepsi, and eventually launching Design for Decision. 00:07:29 - Design for Decision's Mission, Sam talks about Design for Decision's mission to put the latest science of how people think, decide, and behave into action for the purpose of winning brand positioning, meaningful innovation, and more engaging cross-channel experiences for big brands, non-profits, and startups. 00:09:27 - Connections with Behavioral Science Experts, Sam talks about his connections with behavioral science experts like Robert Cialdini, Steve Wendell, and Nir Eyal, and how he has integrated their ideas into his work at Design for Decision. 00:14:31 - Designing for Decision, Sam explains how designing for decision is more than just designing for the jobs to be done, and how not all decisions are created equal. He talks about the importance of understanding the decision before designing anything and how businesses can do social good by helping people make more confident, effective, and efficient decisions. 00:15:56 - Understanding Different Types of Decisions, Sam Evans emphasizes the need to move away from the assumption that all clients face the same challenges or require the same toolkit to solve their problems. He suggests that different types of decisions should be diagnosed first and then solutions prescribed to answer questions based on the decision-making needs of the customers. 00:18:38 - The Decision Design Spectrum, Sam Evans introduces the idea of a decision design spectrum, which classifies different types of decisions into deliberation, default, and deciding. He explains that depending on where a decision falls on this spectrum, different tactics must be employed for effective engagement. 00:21:08 - Educating vs Engaging, Sam differentiates between educating and engaging customers, citing the success of smoking cessation campaigns that used negative reinforcement instead of education to deter smoking. He recommends engaging customers in ways that inspire and answer their questions instead of educating them on why a product is important. 00:25:18 - The Importance of Translating and Avoiding Math, Sam Evans advises businesses to avoid asking customers to do math and include technical jargon. Instead, communicate in simple language. He suggests providing familiar concepts and translating information to help customers make informed decisions. 00:28:04 - Engaging Customers in the Right Way, Sam Evans highlights the success of brands like Amy's Kitchen in engaging customers through appealing visuals and inviting experiences. He suggests businesses find ways to engage customers based on their decision-making preferences, whether it's System 1 (subconscious) or System 2 (conscious). 00:29:30 - Understanding Decision Making & Behavior, Sam Evans highlights the importance of understanding decision making and behavior. He emphasizes that it is crucial to diagnose the decision before prescribing the solution. He also notes that not all decisions are created equal, and it is essential to consider the type of decision before designing a solution. 00:31:00 - Leading with Behavior, Sam and Melina discuss the importance of leading with behavior when it comes to growing a brand. Sam argues that focusing on behavior first is crucial because people buy based on behavior. He suggests that the emphasis should be on designing for behavior rather than forcing things on people. 00:32:15 - Education vs. Behavior, Sam and Melina discuss the challenges of educating people about a product or service. They note that the goal is often to get people to care about something in the same way the company cares about it (which is a bad approach). Sam argues that it is more important to focus on designing an experience that is engaging and inviting rather than leading with education. 00:33:40 - Behavioral Design for Good, Sam emphasizes that he would love to have more conversations with those who are trying to do good by people and change the world. He notes that private organizations, public organizations, nonprofit, and startups are all welcome to reach out to him. Sam highlights that the goal of behavioral design is to make a connection and design an amazing experience that is really engaging. 00:38:02 - Conclusion, Melina's top insights from the conversation.
