So the latest climate drama involving this Government is that they're being accused of lining up to scrap the Clean Car Standards altogether. And I would say to the EV lobby group pushing this line that they may want to just settle down. Even those of us -and I'm looking straight at myself here - who want to see the standards dropped altogether do not think it's going to happen. That would take political courage and I do not think this Government has that on a subject like this in an election year. Now, what I'm talking about, if you don't follow all of the details, is the twin of the ute tax. This is the other part of that policy that was brought in at the same time. It's a penalty that importers have to pay for every dirty car they bring into the country, in the hope that it will encourage them to instead go for the cleaner cars - the EVs. It was recently dropped right down at the end of the year and it's now up for consultation. The Government is considering overhauling the system. One of the questions being asked in the consultation is whether it should just be abolished altogether. Now I'd love it to be because it hasn't worked. Consumers simply do not want to buy that many EVs in this country. The only thing this standard has done is reduce the number of Japanese cars - which we love - coming into the country in the past five years, from 150,000 a year to 90,000 a year. That's down 45 percent and apparently most of this, according to dealers, is because of the Clean Car Standard.And you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out what that does to prices. If you're bringing in so many fewer cars, what happens to prices? That's right - they go up. And who pays that? That's right - you and I. I don't love that. The other thing it's done is force 244 dealers - just last year - to shut down because they couldn't get enough cars. So I'd love to see the standard scrapped. It's only making our cars more expensive, it's only putting people out of business, and as we know, it's going to do nothing for the climate because New Zealand is insignificant in the scheme of global emissions. But it will not be scrapped because every other developed nation apart from Russia is applying standards like this, so we'll be stuck playing the game too. “Should it be abolished?” is, I'm sorry to say, just a question to make the Government look like it's considering everything - but it is not actually considering everything, and we're probably stuck with this.

Tonight on The Huddle, Jordan Williams from the Taxpayers' Union and former Green MP Gareth Hughes joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day - and more! The Government is looking to possibly scrap the Clean Car Standard, and a review is under way. Do we think this is likely to go ahead? Trade Me is ditching their 'success fees' and bank transfers as part of a new overhaul. Do we think this is a good idea? Do we prefer Facebook Marketplace anyway?

Paul Barlow joins us to chat about a website he's just launched to track the coalition's actions this term and the material impact on New Zealanders.The govt are seriously considering scrapping the Clean Car Standards, and is consulting the Industry itself on what's best. This would put NZ in the same category as Russia, the only other OECD nation to have no vehicle emissions standards.NZSIS and NZ's spy agency have outlined vulnerabilities in NZ's cybersecurity infrastructure, and updated Parliament on what intelligence they are and are not sharing with other nations in respect to the war with Iran.++++++++++++++++++++Like us on Facebook.com/BigHairyNetwork Follow us on Twitter.com/@bighairynetworkFollowing us on TikTok.com/@bighairynetworkSupport us on Patreon www.patreon.com/c/BigHairyNewsCheck out our merch https://bhn.nz/shop/Donate to our work https://bhn.nz/shop/donation

A prominent Clare haulier is calling for a Dáil vote to be taken tonight to scrap Carbon Tax amid an expected rise in fuel costs. The Irish Road Haulage Association is predicting the price of petrol and diesel will soon soar above €2 per litre due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Speaking earlier this week, Micheál Martin has stated there should be no increase in fuel costs as Ireland's oil is sourced from the North Sea, and has pledged to engage with the Consumer Protection Commission. Former President of the IRHA Eugene Drennan however has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan that the Taoiseach is ill-informed.
Send a textIn this episode of Born Scrappy, I sit down with Bob Alvarez, President at Shapiro Metals, for a true masterclass on the art of buying scrap into a yard.Bob didn't grow up in scrap, but over the past decade he's helped shape Shapiro into one of the most sophisticated industrial recyclers in the U.S. With over 120 years of legacy behind the company, Bob shares how they've evolved beyond commodity buying to become a high-value service partner to manufacturers.We unpack how to win tons without just winning on price… how to identify the right customers… and why curiosity, experimentation, and culture matter more than spreadsheets alone.In this episode, we talk about:
Alex Ranahan on Being More Childlike and Living in the PresentBarton talks with Bristol-based virtual event emcee, presenter, and actor Alex Ranahan about what matters to him right now: reconnecting to the present moment instead of constantly chasing the next goal. Alex shares how social media and online advice can turn self-improvement into pressure and comparison, and suggests scrapping the idea of a life “journey” in favor of gratitude, appreciation, and measuring progress by how you feel and how your perspective has shifted over time. In the speed round, Alex says AI matters as a tool that extends capability, along with dogs, pantomime, social media (as a tool, not a replacement), the USA, mental health, paper books, and travel, while skipping the Epstein files and driverless cars.02:59 Escaping Comparison Culture04:43 Scrap the Journey Mindset06:05 Gratitude in the Now06:58 Reflecting Without Regret09:21 Speed Round Begins09:40 AI and Dogs10:59 Pantomime and Social Media13:23 Mental Health and Books15:19 Travel and Wonder16:38 Where to Find Alex17:03 Closing ThanksThis podcast is brought to you by Matters.com.

We discuss their layered process — creating a space that generates a scene, which produces its own art and dedicated star-system while also serving as source material, location, and cast for all that Max and Calla make in parallel — as a distinctly contemporary protocol for artmaking today. We also talk about the return of theater itself at a time when every physical place now feels like a potential set, whether for a vlog or an ICE raid, and performance online is constant? Does theater hit different in our neo-oral era? Does LA?

In this episode of Stationery Freaks, Rob and Helen dig into the messy, essential world of scrap notes: desk pads, Post-its, legal pads, envelopes, voice memos, and the “grab whatever's nearby” capture habit.They explore the real question beneath the stationery: what's the process for turning a quick note into something useful — and what happens when your capture system becomes a pile of open loops.We cover:Why scrap notes exist: capturing ideas without breaking the momentDesk pads as “work in progress” surfaces (and why that's a feature, not a bug)The threshold problem: forgetting what you went to write down the moment you change roomsAnalog vs digital: how Rob and Helen bounce between bothThe discipline of finishing: why ideas aren't valuable until they become somethingA practical “funnel” approach: backlog → sprouts → now (commitment increases as you narrow)The emotional side: cluttered desks = cluttered minds, and why clearing down helps you thinkListener shout-outs and the surprisingly global reach of Stationery FreaksListener request: Share your stationery “in the wild” or your desk setup on Instagram (doesn't have to be pretty!) and tag @stationeryfreaksuk.We mention:Mark+Fold “Glow” notebookNoted (Substack) by Jillian Hess“Analog Attorney” series (Attorney at Work) by Bull Garlington

There is not a more sacred number in the United States Fire service than 343 and I did not want to treat this as just another episode. With this year marking the 25th anniversary of 9/11, it was important to approach Episode #343 with respect and honor. So with that said - this will be MEGA SCRAP FDNY! I will be joined by three of FDNY's best: Tom Richardson, Joe Jardin and Frank Leeb. Together they bring more than 115 years of combined experience to explore, dissect, dig-into and ask questions about! We will absolutely honor those who were lost. But that's not the sole focus. We'll also talk about the impact, the changes, and the challenges they faced and overcame throughout their careers. It was an incredible Scrap. Enjoy.

Joined this week by Mr. Fully Involved himself, the one and only Mark vonAppen. It promises to be an awesome conversation as one of my most influential mentors comes back on the Scrap! We discuss how decisions made at the mid-level shape culture, trust, and long-term performance within organizations. How he likes to emphasizes accountability without ego, discipline without arrogance, and the idea that credibility is built through consistent action, not position. We planned to address the challenges firefighters face: ethical gray areas, top-down pressure, burnout, and the tension between policy and people. Of course as always the best thought out topics of me and the guest got beutifully hijacked by the wonderful questions from the audience. Enjoy the episode!!!

Michael O'Leary, Group CEO of Ryanair.
Joined this week by the one and only Chris Watson. It was an interesting conversation for sure! We dove deep into transferring knowledge, not just skills. The big question: Are we really doing enough for the next generation of firefighters? Mentoring and how much he learned from his mentors and how that impacted him to pass it on. Chris is also passionate about sharing knowledge beyond the firehouse, especially with the public - and why fostering relationships with all stakeholders matters more than ever. He brings a unique perspective on how small, seemingly minor interactions can compound over time into massive wins for any organization. And of course, as always, the audience questions drove the Scrap! Pull up. Let's scrap.

81% of people work after dinner, drowning in back to back Zoom meetings where they doodle under the table, only to do real work at night. Sound familiar? In this episode, I sit down with Juliet Funt, author and consultant who helps companies turn scrap time into steel, transforming low value work into high purpose, innovative time. We dive into the signs of toxic culture, why anxious deference to the CEO is a red flag, and how to spot when you're stuck in an unhealthy organization. Juliet shares her unconventional path from growing up as Alan Funt's daughter (yes, from Candid Camera) to discovering the power of white space, taking four years to world school her three boys across 14 countries, and why most executives need therapy. Plus, we tackle the fascinating question: do people change via desire or disaster? Her answer might surprise you. If you've ever felt like you're spending unspeakable amounts of time doing work you hate, this conversation will change how you think about your day.Juliet Funt on Linked InJFG Can HelpWasted Payroll CalculatorIn This Episode:Grab your very own Soundtracks: The Conversations Card DeckMake sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!You can grab a copy of my book All It Takes Is a Goal from your favorite bookstore or at my website!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!

Rosie interviews Dr Jeremy Walker of the University of Technology Sydney on his research, on the history of petroleum industry and fossil fuel investors early knowledge of global heating, systematic efforts to influence public opinion and government policy to defeat effective climate policy: that is, to reduce fossil fuel industry, extraction and combustion to zero, and replace all energy use with zero-combustion, zero emissions sources. Key to this is an international network of ‘free market thinktanks' assembled by neoliberal economists, activists, politicians, media organisations and big business funders. Since its 1981 registration, the Atlas Economic Research Foundation (Arlington VA) has fulfilled its mission to ‘litter the world with free market thinktanks', expanding the global Atlas Network of neoliberal thinktanks to some 550 ‘partner organisations' in 100 nations eight of which are in Australian and New Zealand (see Pic). In this episode Dr Jeremy Walker discusses new research finding regarding the history, definitions and methods of the Atlas Network of ostensibly ‘independent, non-profit' public policy research institutes, which whilst generating vast quantities of legacy media outputs policy papers and social media content to influence public opinion, frame public debate (moving the ‘Overton window') to defeat or advance government policies and constitutional reforms, has only recently been brought to light and named as a coherent global infrastructure- the Atlas Network.Dr Walker then discusses Liberal opposition leader Peter Dutton's flagship election campaign promises: to use public finances to build ‘clean and cheap' nuclear power stations across the nation, and to scrap offshore windfarm projects in Port Stephens, Illawarra (NSW), the Southern Ocean (Vic) and Geographe Bay (WA), In each case these announcements were preceded by highly sophisticated, disinformation campaigns involving individuals and organisations long associated with Australian and US Atlas thinktanks, and accompanied by a swarm of ostensibly ‘community based' campaign websites, often with anonymous membership and always without declaring funding.

BlurbMany people plan their year around the number of weddings they have to go to. Whether your flying abroad to celebrate someone's special day or you are going somewhere local, weddings can often come with lot of expenses. The likes of hotels, hair and makeup and an outfit for the big day can all add up. With all of these costs, broadcaster, Roz Purcell has expressed that she is not a fan of wedding gifts from guests and feels that people going to a wedding is a gift in itself. Do you agree with Roz? Should a person's presence at your wedding be enough, or should you give a wedding gift to commemorate a couple's big day? We want to hear your thoughts. To discuss, Andrea was joined by Freelance journalist Edaein O' Connell, Wedding planner, Lyndsey Moynagh aswell as well as listeners to give their opinion.
Joining us this week is the editor-in-chief himself, Chief David Rhodes! The number 339 holds deep significance for Rhodes, and we unpack what it means to him.

No discussion with Chief Rhodes would be complete without checking in on the big show and what all he has planned for FDIC this year, and of course all of this was wonderfully interrupted by the live audience and their awesome questions.

Joined on this episode of the Weekly Scrap by none other than Zach King! This scrap has been a long time in the making and it finally happened. We had a lot of conversations centered around the word importance! The importance of having a plan. The importance of visualization of those plans. The importance of understanding that we do not always have tomorrow! The importance of the human element as it pertains to our future success. And of course, as always…me and the guests' conversations were beautifully derailed and thrown aside by the questions from the audience! Enjoy the show!

CTL Script/ Top Stories of January 9th Publish Date: January 9th Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast Today is Friday, January 9th and Happy Birthday to Jimmy Page I’m Chris Culwell and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Fincher wins runoff for Cherokee County’s state House seat Farm Bureau seeks entries for High School Art Contest Georgia Republicans move to scrap state income tax by 2032 despite concerns Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on saturated fats We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Commercial: INGLES 10 STORY 1: Fincher wins runoff for Cherokee County’s state House seat Republican Bill Fincher is poised to take the Georgia House District 23 seat, according to unofficial results. With all precincts reporting by 8:57 p.m. Tuesday, Fincher secured 71.38% of the vote—4,345 ballots—against Democrat Scott Sanders, who pulled in 1,742 votes. Fincher, a retired assistant DA and RV park owner, thanked supporters on Facebook: “To everyone who voted, knocked doors, prayed, or just believed—thank you. I’m humbled and ready to get to work.” Sanders, meanwhile, called his campaign a success, saying, “We hit every goal and laid the groundwork for 2026. No more uncontested elections.” The seat, left vacant after Rep. Mandi Ballinger’s passing, saw six candidates in the Dec. 9 special election. Fincher and Sanders advanced to the runoff. Turnout was low—just 13.75%—with most votes cast on Election Day. Results will be certified Friday after the elections board reviews one provisional ballot. STORY 2: Farm Bureau seeks entries for High School Art Contest Hey, high school artists—this one’s for you! The 2026 Georgia Farm Bureau High School Art Contest is here, and there’s cash on the line. The state winner gets $250, and 10 district winners snag $100 each. Not bad, right? It’s open to all 9th–12th graders (public, private, or homeschool). The rules? Create your masterpiece on 8.5 x 11-inch white paper using black, white, and gray. Use whatever works—charcoal, graphite, pen, chalk, mixed media, you name it. Just one entry per person, though. Deadline? Feb. 6. Drop your entry at the Cherokee County Farm Bureau office. Questions? Call 770-479-1481. Let’s see what you’ve got! STORY 3: Georgia Republicans move to scrap state income tax by 2032 despite concerns Cutting state income taxes sounds great, right? But here’s the catch: how do you replace billions in lost revenue without gutting schools, health care, or public safety—or jacking up other taxes? That’s the question Georgia Republicans are wrestling with as they push to eliminate the state’s personal income tax by 2032. Lt. Gov. Burt Jones, eyeing the governor’s mansion in 2026, is leading the charge, with State Sen. Blake Tillery backing him up. Their plan? Start by exempting the first $50,000 of income for singles ($100,000 for couples) in 2027. Sounds nice, but it’d cost the state $3.8 billion in year one alone. Tillery says they’ll cover it with surplus funds and borrowing for infrastructure, but critics—Democrats and even some Republicans—aren’t sold. For now, the debate rages on. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 1 STORY 4: Prep Roundup: Hamby, Bass have record-setting nights Creekview’s Kailyn Hamby had a night to remember, shattering both the single-game and all-time scoring records as the Grizzlies rolled past Sprayberry, 62-35. Hamby dropped 33 points, grabbed six boards, and helped Creekview climb to 13-1 overall and 4-0 in Region 6AAAAA. They’re now neck-and-neck with River Ridge for the top spot. Next up? A Friday showdown at Pope. Meanwhile, River Ridge stayed unbeaten in region play, edging Pope 70-60 behind Finley Parker’s 28 points and Makayla Roberson’s 25. Elsewhere, North Paulding handled Etowah 56-46, and Sequoyah crushed Woodstock 78-50 with a dominant third-quarter run. Cherokee also outlasted Wheeler, 41-34. PLAYER OF THE YEAR: Will Rajecki. If you’ve followed Cherokee County football these past few years, you know the name. It’s only fitting he caps off his high school career as the 2025 Cherokee County Offensive Player of the Year. Records? He smashed them. Flashy stats? Oh, plenty. Rajecki was the heart of Sequoyah’s offense, leading the Chiefs to their first region title since 2003 and back-to-back state quarterfinals for the first time ever. The numbers are wild: 4,049 career rushing yards (a school record), 66 all-purpose touchdowns, and a jaw-dropping seven-touchdown game against Sprayberry that landed him third in state history. This season alone, he racked up 1,974 rushing yards, 30 touchdowns, and helped Sequoyah to a 35-14 record over his four varsity years. Now? He’s weighing offers from Arkansas, Oregon State, and Georgia after decommitting from Memphis. Wherever he lands, one thing’s clear: Rajecki’s story is just getting started. STORY 5: Cagle names appointee to Cherokee County T-SPLOST committee Cherokee County just named the first three members of its new T-SPLOST Citizens Review Committee, a group tasked with keeping an eye on how the county spends its transportation sales tax dollars. On Tuesday, Commissioner Will Cagle appointed Jack Norton, a Canton resident, Marine Corps vet, and small business owner with a background in transportation. Norton joins Ashley Holcomb, appointed by Chairman Harry Johnston, and Tom Teague, chosen by Commissioner Benny Carter. Two spots are still open, but Johnston isn’t worried. The 1% T-SPLOST, approved by voters in November, kicks off April 1 and is expected to bring in $445 million over six years. The committee’s job? Make sure the funds are spent responsibly and projects stay on track. They’ll review reports, offer recommendations, and keep the public informed—but they can’t change the project list. Meetings will be open to the public, with the 2026 schedule set at the first session. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on saturated fats Commercial: We’ll have closing comments after this.

Second half of the kickoff 2026 double header!!!! Joined on this episode by the one and only James Nisbet, and it promises to be a doozy! We plan to discuss getting beyond the pre-connect. The purpose of the first line. Supporting search as the engine. The purpose of system based actions as the engine company (don't know what this means but it's provocative) Of course all of our plans as is always the case, will be derailed by the wonderful questions from the audience as we dive down rabbit trails and chase squirrels!
Joined on this unique episode by Cody Maine, and I was excited to have him on for this topic, because I believe it is the future of emergency services and an answer worth exploring. Cody has been on the forefront of implementing Mobile Integrated health in his department and in his state and he is passionate about it's value to the community and the line firefighters. The audience showed up with their questions and it was a very informative show and I hope it will spark a lot of conversations across the American Fire Service.
Joined on this episode by the one and only Chief Rick Lasky for the annual year-end episode of the Weekly Scrap! It was his third time to come on the show to close out the year and I was excited to look back on 2025 in the fire service and field all of the questions from the audience, and they did not disappoint. Chief Lasky unleashed his passion for the job and took us to church in an amazing episode that I promise will leave you fired up about the job!!!
Joined this week by the one and only Anthony “AC” Casanas, and it was an amazing conversation! We started out by discussing firehouse culture and how he learned all about it long before he was ever a firefighter. Why younger members need something real to emulate, and how social media can be either an incredible tool or an incredible hindrance. And so much more! Of course all of this was beautifully derailed by the amazing questions from the audience as usual!!
