Podcasts about Tim Buckley

This week on The Audit Podcast, Tim Buckley, founder of Beyond the Lines, joins the show to interview Trent Russell, founder of Green Skies Analytics, about how AI and analytics can fundamentally change the way internal audit teams operate. Trent explains why audit leaders need to move beyond isolated AI use cases and think about how technology can reshape the entire audit operating model. He breaks down why teams need an AI and analytics methodology, how AI can improve planning and reporting, and why analytics should be focused on finding meaningful insights rather than simply increasing efficiency. Trent also shares real-world examples of teams using AI agents and orchestration to automate large portions of audit planning, explains how AI can help identify risks auditors may otherwise miss, and discusses the growing importance of human judgment and critical thinking as more audit work becomes automated. He also offers practical advice for audit leaders looking to overcome management resistance and start making meaningful changes today. 05:03 Why AI and Analytics Matter for Audit Leaders 06:18 Why You Need to Rethink the Audit Operating Model 08:21 Isolated AI Use Cases vs. Real Transformation 11:17 Where AI and Analytics Are Overhyped and Underused 16:27 How AI Can Change Audit Planning 19:30 Using AI and Analytics to Improve Audit Quality 23:13 How AI Can Transform Audit Reporting 26:01 Why Auditors Need to Protect Judgment and Critical Thinking 34:47 Governance and the Human-in-the-Loop 43:50 What Audit Leaders Can Change in the Next 30 Days Be sure to connect with Trent Russell on LinkedIn and check out Green Skies Analytics for more resources on audit analytics and AI.

‘Sandy Denny: A People's History' has just been published, memories from fellow musicians, old friends, producers, writers, fans and admirers. Linda Thompson met her when they were both 16 and was devoted to her ‘til she died in 1978 – “she's still with me, I talk to her all the time”. She looks back here at their lives in Soho bars, folk clubs and studios, the world they inhabited and the musicians they both knew. Among the many highlights … … meeting Sandy in 1966, onstage doing Jackson Frank's You Never Wanted Me. “Eight million cigarettes a day but such breath control!” … why her singing and songwriting were unique … high times at the Colony Club with Lucian Freud and Francis Bacon - “famously grumpy” … “she didn't put up with bullshit. Cross her and she'd deck you” … memories of Nick Drake – “spectral and gorgeous” … the repercussions of the Fairport car crash … memories of her family home in Wimbledon (on the cover of Unhalfbricking) … recording ad jingles for Ski Yoghurt and ‘flour so fine, it flows and it flows' - £15 an hour, “a fortune” … making demos of Nick Drake songs with Elton John, “so full of Valium I had to be held up to the mic” … sharing a flat with Tim Buckley in Holland Park … “anyone who can bear to listen to their own records must be no bloody good” … and the script Nick Hornby started about the life of Richard and Linda Thompson.

In this episode of the Carolina Weather Group, the panel breaks down recent extreme weather events across North Carolina and the Southeast.

Spark Club Podcast Ep72 24th July 2026 Highlights – 'Message to the haters' AFR Headline Beyond Tim's inspirational trip to China last month to be reminded about 'China Speed, China Scale' + 'China Going Global', his favourite thing this year was seeing the AFFR headline: "'Message to the haters': Chalmers gets cover to cut diesel tax rebate" Following a campaign in the lead-up to Labor's 50th national conference by the highly influential Labor Environment Action Network (LEAN), convenor Louise Crawford moved an amendment that paved the way for future action: "Labor will ensure that all policies, including taxation, work together to provide appropriate incentives and remove disincentives for orderly decarbonisation," the amendment, passed unopposed by delegates.  Recently elected ALP MP for Bennelong, Jerome Laxale said the amendment sent "a message to the haters that Labor can and will double down on decarbonisation. Our new platform should scream that Labor is serious about climate action and no one who reads it should be surprised when we use our time in government to deliver it." And the AFR acknowledged a key plank of Climate Capital Forum's strategy: "Farmers and tourism operators would not be affected by the proposal." A long way to go yet, but such a big team effort, with LEAN working with the ACTU, Fortescue, CANA, ACOSS and IGCC plus a range of additional groups leaning in to build collective social, union, cleantech and eNGO power – the power of a coalition. Highlights – China CleanTech exports record high in June China's cleantech exports are truly booming. EMBER reports June 2026 was a record high US$26.7bn   Lowlights - China solar capacity installs in 1HCY2026 down 1HCY2026 capacity adds data is pretty bleak relative to the massive outperformance by China in previous years. They have added 38GW of thermal in 6 months, up vs 26GW add pcp. They have added 72GW of solar in 6 months, down vs 212GW add pcp. -2/3 They have added 39GW of wind in 6 months, down vs 51GW add pcp. -22% BESS installs are booming – but clearly they are holding firepower on the domestic economic stimulus to have firepower vs Trump, but after GDP growth of +4.3% yoy in 2QCY2026, they are likely to do something stimulus wise near term, I would think Main Story – Our new CEF Report: Arc of Ambition: Decarbonising and Safeguarding Australia's Steel Industry An effective Green Energy Statecraft policy architecture starting domestically can create government initiatives and channels of strategic public capital deployment that de-risk key aspects of project development through coordinated planning; enabling infrastructure; and efficient allocation and alleviation of project development risks, addressing structural challenges to the economic viability of decarbonised value-add.

Boao Forum Perth This week Tim had the privilege of joining Oliver Yates of @Green Energy Statecraft, Rachel Howard @MPP & Tom Parker @ACBC Beathan @TSP, Tom Quinn @Springmout and others to attend a full day conference – the Boao Forum in Perth The Boao Forum for Asia (BFA), hosted by Fortescue, brings together senior leaders from government, industry and academia from across Australia & China, and a smattering of representatives from ASEAN and Gabon.The Perth Forum explored the theme The Next Phase of Green Industry Cooperation. The Forum examines how governments and industry can strengthen regional cooperation, improve energy security and accelerate the deployment pathways for large scale green technologies and industries. CEF is honoured to be speaking in Session 4: Future green energy enabled industries and market creation It is a who's who from China – both cleantech, government, steel, construction and finance – so a lot broader than just the narrow definition of the steel supply chain of old – it is all about the massive infrastructure buildout needs of the bilateral integrated green iron and steel profile from mining, railways, grid, renewable generation and bess firming to green iron and then green steel, with the massive associated cooperation required at the political arena, plus the financing needs – interesting to see ANZ and Macquarie Group speaking alongside CDB, Bank of China, China Construction Bank and China EXIM Bank. Given the seniority and number of Chinese executives attending – It is embarrassing the Australian delegation that pales by comparison. At least the WA Premier and Energy Ministers attended in part. End.

Oliver spoke to Tim Buckley on Friday, he was at the match yesterday and is on the line to tell us what it was like from the other side.

Oliver speaks to Kerry fan and wordsmith - Tim Buckley.

Tim Buckley is the Deputy Sports Editor & Senior Writer for the Daily Memphian. His latest story breaks down the state of the Memphis Redbirds, and we discuss that topic with him

Hoewel films maar weinig moeten hebben van metal, laten metalheads zich met liefde door de meest bloederige en brute cinema inspireren. Dat bewijst cinefiel Richard Toepoel in acht verschrikkelijke platen. In de categorie ‘onlogische relaties' is die van ‘metal' met ‘films' er absoluut een. Want hoe raakt de pathetische powermetal van Rhapsody aan de multidimensionale geluidsmuren van Hans Zimmer? En wat heeft het gruwelijke artwork van Cannibal Corpse te maken met de fijnbesnaarde beelden uit Titanic? Helemaal niets natuurlijk. Toch, stelt cinefiel en filmfestival-organisator Richard Toepoel, zijn er stiekem vele, vele raakvlakken. Zelfrelativerende ironie, ten eerste. De mismatch tussen ambitie en uitvoering, ten tweede. En ten derde, de soms verschrikkelijke muziek die daaruit volgt. Dus daarom, in deze editie van Dood & Verderf, een deep dive in de ziel van Richard Toepoel, die via een handvol weerzinwekkende platen, elk om zijn eigen redenen, wil bewijzen dat wie van bizarre films houdt, ook gepredestineerd is om metalfan te zijn - en vice versa. Vind je dit tof? Abonneer je dan op de nieuwsbrief of de podcast. En ben je al fan? Geef dan een vijf-sterren-rating aan de show op je favoriete podcastplatform, zodat andere mensen Dood & Verderf ook kunnen vinden. Playlist Mortician - Chainsaw Dismemberment (Chainsaw Dismemberment, 1999) "Als je het hebt over horror en metal dan is er maar 1 koning in mijn optiek en dat is Mortician. Pak een random nummer en je hoort een sample uit een horror film afgewisseld met de lompe diesel motor sound van mortician. Track gebruikt sample uit texas chainsaw massacre 2, in mijn optiek een waardeloos vervolg op een perfecte film, namelijk texas chainsaw massacre. Die film is hoofdzakelijk zo afgrijselijk om dat de kwaliteit van het beeldmateriaal ook niet geweldig is. Ik zie parallellen met de black metal productie die, net als in de film, sfeer verhogend is." Goblin – Suspiria (Suspiria, 1977) "Een progressieve rockband uit italie die bekend staat om hun vele werk voor soundtracks, hoofdzakelijk giallo films uit de jaren 70. Fantastische nummer waarbij menig metalband jaloers zou zijn op de sfeer die ze weten op te roepen. Plus ze zijn al bijna aan het grunten voordat er gegrunt werd. is dat een kloppende zin?" Angelo Janotti & Dragon Sound - Against the Ninja (Miami Connection OST, 2020) "Qua muziek schuurt het heel dunnetjes tegen metal aan, I know, maar ik zou al een gehele podcast kunnen vullen over deze film alleen. Een groep beste vrienden, tevens studenten en Taekwondo fanaten, die daarnaast ook nog in een rock band zitten nemen het op tegen een Motorbende die tevens ook ninja's zijn. En dit omschrijft nog maar dunnetjes wat er zich allemaal afspeelt in deze fantastische film. De regisseur is tevens een van de hoofdrolspelers, heeft al zijn spaargeld + leningen +een hypotheek op zijn taekwondo school in deze film gestopt en de film was een complete flop. In 2012 (meer dan 20 jaar nadat hij uitkwam) her-ontdekt door een amerikaanse film distributeur en opnieuw uitgegeven en nu een cult succes." Fulci - Palms by the Cemetery (Tropical Sun, 2019) "Een death metalband die los gaat op italiaanse horror films. De band leent zijn naam van de italiaanse regiseeur Luci Fulci die bekend staat om zijn italiaanse zombie films. Deze track staat op een album die geheel gebaseerd is op de film Zombi (of zombi 2, waarom deel 2? Lang verhaal, leg ik ooit uit)." Christopher Lee & Rhapsody - The Magic of the Wizard's Dream (The Magic of the Wizard's Dream, 2005) "Holy shit, christopher lee had zijn eigen metal band! We weten allemaal dat Jared Leto naast acteur (en wat voor een acteur) ook nog muzikant is (en wat voor een muzikant). Maar Christopher Lee had dus ook gewoon zijn eigen symphonische power metal band. En als je die zin uitspreekt klinkt het fantastisch, maar dat valt van de muziek misschien niet helemaal te zeggen. Je kan het ook weer snel uitdraaien toch? Holy shit, hij heeft met Rhapsody ook muziek gemaakt, en deze clip is een b-film opzich. LOL" Danzig – Mother (Danzig, 1988) "Als acteurs zich voor kunnen doen als metal muzikanten, dan kunnen metal muzikanten zich ook vast wel voor gaan doen als acteurs. Sterker nog, zelfs als regisseurs. In 2019 bracht Glenn Danzig Verotika uit, een abominatie van een film. Gelukkig denkt meneer er zelf heel anders over, beetje god complex... De film heeft uiteraard een soundtrack die ik, in tegenstelling tot zijn film, niet kan labellen met “so bad, it's good”. Huilen en snel weer door." Cannibal Corpse – Hammer Smashed Face (Tomb of the Mutilated, 1992) "Om weer even bij te komen van alle ellende, zelfs in hollywood komen we nog wel eens wat metal tegen met als hoogtepunt Cannibal Corpse in de film Ace Ventura: Pet Detective." Amenra - Song to the Siren (Skunk OST, 2024) "Regisseur Koen Mortier maakte in 2007 een voor mij erg indrukwekkende verfilming van het boek Ex-Drummer. Een bijzonder combinatie van humor, absurdisme en zeer kleurrijke personages waarbij elk shot je een ongemakkelijk vies gevoel geeft. Ik was dan ook behoorlijk in mijn nopjes toen ik hoorde dat er een nieuwe film van hem zou verschijnen met de titel Skunk. Dan wordt het nog beter als Amenra de soundtrack van die film verzorgt, en als kers op de taart speelt Colin (de zanger) ook nog een rol in deze film. Een rol die hem net iets te goed past zoals het lijkt, namelijk als een enorme tokkie vader die zijn kind mishandeld / verwaarloosd en zijn vrouw uithoert. De film zelf draait om de zoon uit dit gezin die uit huis geplaatst wordt en terechtkomt in een inrichting. Het is een zeer aangrijpend verhaal over wat trauma met een kind doet. De humor en absurdisme zijn verdwenen en hebben plaatsgemaakt voor complete wanhoop. En wie dan beter om de soundtrack te vertolken dan Amenra. Daarnaast is dit nummer ook een briljante cover van Tim Buckley."

We first saw Kevin in ‘77 wearing jodhpurs onstage with his art-punk band the Killjoys! He's formed a new version of Dexys, made an album, starts a tour in October, and looks back here at central moments in his life, some recent ones so huge and affecting “that I put them to music” and they'll be performed as a drama in the first half of these upcoming theatre shows. This touches - in vivid detail - on bands that inspired him, repaired relationships, a health crisis, what it took to be a singer in the first place and what's requires now to put the show back on the road, along with … … memories of music before the Beatles … playing Jim Reeves and Ricky Nelson in a social club band in 1975 “after the bingo” … the touching shift of power in his relationship with his 102 year-old father: “he was like a child again, he needed me” … Roxy Music on Top Of The Pops, “I couldn't believe you could be avant garde AND commercial” … life on the Top Rank circuit supporting the Specials: “you learnt not to play at an audience but play for them” … making Searching For The Young Soul Rebels in ten days with producer Pete Wingfield dancing in the studio … “Come On Eileen doesn't belong to me anymore” … the alarming spectacle of an ‘80s Hear & Now package tour and what it taught him .. the song he wrote for his grandchildren (one of whom is 31) … a possibly terminal diagnosis in 2024 and “like Wilko Johnson, the relief I felt” … and the Tim Buckley song he just recorded without knowing who wrote it!

Tim Buckley joined the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) and Renewable Energy Council Asia-Pacific (RECAP) delegation to China. Before joining the delegation, Tim travelled across China by train — a very fast trip with a friend from Hong Kong, via Chongqing. Nothing beats travelling 12 hours at 300kph across the length of this amazing country to orient himself and see some of the landscape. Chongqing is the largest city in China (and the world), with a population of some 34 million people. Simply incredible and beautiful. Walking the streets of Beijing, Tim played spot-the-ICE-vehicle — green EV number plates abound! Tim joined the delegation for the Fourth China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE) in Beijing. Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng spoke at the opening ceremony, addressing the importance for China of global supply chain stability and security for mutual benefit and win-win cooperation, even as other nations create geopolitical challenges. Australia was featured as the country guest of honour. Great to have John Grimes (Renewable Energy Council Asia-Pacific, RECAP) and Dominic Trindade (Australia Consul-General, Australian Trade and Investment Commission, Austrade) co-hosting, with Don Farrell, Trade Minister. Tim and the delegation were there to see "China Speed, China Scale" first hand — and even sat in an autonomous flying EV taxi! Brilliant to meet with State Grid Corporation of China's CEPRI (China Electric Power Research Institute) RERC team to discuss energy system transformation trends in China, and how they match and differ from Australia. Brilliant to hear China plans to expand variable renewable energy (VRE) capacity from 1.84TW as of December 2025 to ~3.0TW installed capacity by 2030. CEPRI estimates China's solar potential at 45.6TW, while onshore wind is estimated at a more modest 3.4TW (plus 0.5TW of lower-speed wind), offshore wind at 0.4TW in deep sea (out to 50km offshore), and another 0.36TW of near-shore wind (at 100 metre height). By 2030, China's 3.0TW VRE capacity will be just 6% of this 50TW maximum. CEPRI acknowledges this theoretical maximum is being progressively raised — the higher the tower, the faster the average wind speed, and generation expands somewhat exponentially. By end of 2025, China had 46 HVDC grid transmission lines operational — that's 46 of the world's roughly 50 largest lines. Total world leadership, clearly evident, and very impressive. The Austrade RECAP delegation visited XCMG Group's factory in Xuzhou, China. XCMG is the number one OEM in mining equipment in China (with a 2025 share of 33% in domestic mining excavators) and third globally. XCMG's 2025 revenue reached Rmb90bn, up 897% since 2019, with 2025 net profit of Rmb4.9bn. XCMG's R&D investment in 2025 was Rmb10.2bn (A$2bn), and the company holds 12,715 patents, including 4,798 domestic and 366 international invention patents. XCMG's 15th Five-Year Plan for its mining equipment strategy targets trebling mining machinery sales to US$6bn a year by 2030, lifting international sales share to 60% (from 40% in 2025), with new energy vehicles rising to a 50% share. China going global: XCMG targets being number one globally in new energy mining equipment as soon as 2030. Tim has no doubt they will achieve this. XCMG started as a construction equipment OEM, expanding to create a separate mining sector vertical with a focus on new energy vehicles and autonomous operation. Adjacent to the mining OEM facility is the XCMG and BYD battery joint venture factory, which targets 100GWh a year capacity. Phase 1 (30GWh) is already in operation, built in just 12 months and commissioned in December 2023; phase 2 (70GWh) is in preparation. This factory produces the Blade battery pack, with a long life of 7,000 cycles. XCMG manufactures the biggest truck in the world, with a 363-tonne payload at a cost of US$15m per unit. XCMG will deliver its first 240-tonne payload EV to Fortescue in early 2027, with the full US$1bn order due for commercial delivery commencing 2028. Tim believes it is time for Treasurer Jim Chalmers and Finance Minister Katy Gallagher to reform the $4.5bn annual Australian mining sector imported diesel fuel subsidy to BHP, Rio Tinto and others, turning this headwind to energy security into a tailwind for decarbonisation. In his view, PM Anthony Albanese and Industry Minister Tim Ayres should ignore MCA lobbyist threats — Australia's Future Made in Australia agenda needs to be powered by domestic clean energy, not expensive, high-emissions imported diesel. Brilliant to see XCMG Australia has doubled to 70 staff across two offices, with a third in Queensland planned. XCMG has already deployed 500 autonomous trucks globally, mostly hybrid or EV. June 2025 saw XCMG deploy 100 autonomous EV trucks at an Inner Mongolia open-cut coal mine, with a 90-tonne payload and a six-minute recharge time. (https://lnkd.in/gRKbaAJY) XCMG has a MoU for cooperation with Rio Tinto, and is already delivering mining EV equipment to Rio Tinto's partner in Simandou, Guinea. XCMG is working closely with Vale and has a new Brazilian factory with 1,600 workers. Tim shares a few details on the delegation's visit to the BYD truck factory and EV zero to 60 in less than two seconds in a Xiaomi. China delivers on "China Speed, China Scale" for this Australian delegation. Enjoy the podcast.

Grant McDowell & Tim Buckley– Spark Club Podcast 27 May 2026 Highlights – ACCELERATING RENEWABLES DRIVES NEM ELECTRICITY PRICE DEFLATION Amazing to see electricity price DEFLATION being delivered in Australia in the middle of the latest fossil fuel war, with its resulting hyperinflation of global fossil fuel prices. The Australian Energy Regulator has released its final Default Market Offer (DMO) starting 1 July 2026. Residential flat rate standing offer prices will fall by between 3-5% in NSW and by 7.2% in South East Queensland compared to last year, while South Australian households will have a modest increase of 1.4%. Small businesses will see reductions across all three regions, with prices decreasing by 7-12% in South Australia, 10-14% in South East Queensland, and 9.0-21% in NSW. Earlier this week the Essential Services Commission delivered a further reduction in the Victorian Default Offer; FY2026–27 will be on average 5% lower than last year for households. For small businesses the price is down on average 6%. A major contributing factor is the record high investments into clean energy by Australia's public – with over 400k home battery installs totalling >11GWh achieved in just 11 months, supporting the 3GW pa of rooftop solar installs. Lowlights – China installed just 75GW of RE in 4MCY2026, -41%$ yoy Solar installs of 51GW in 4M 2026 -51% yoy. Still more than the RoW combined, but disappointingly down in the middle of year. China added a depressing 28GW of fossil powered capacity YTD 2026, +26% yoy. Why? China is consolidating after knocking the lights out last year. But also GDP growth is still on track at +5% yoy, and Industrial value-add +5.6% yoy. Keeping their govt. firepower in-case Trump attacks China again, and this time has an impact, unlike the last few times! In the electricity sector, total electricity generation was +5.4% yoy YTD 2026, unfortunately with nuclear down yoy, coal power was +3.8% yoy. Not what we want to see continue over the rest of 2026. Main Story – The ABC / Guardian Australia Epic reveal  A major exposé on ABC Four Corners on Monday, in collaboration with the Guardian, revealed irrefutable evidence of BHP reversing its commitments to meaningfully cut emissions in a credible timeframe. The egregious walkback, as the climate crisis escalates, was laid out in hundreds of pages of leaked internal company records.  What BHP does matters. It is the world's largest mining company by market capitalisation, generating revenues of US$51bn in the last financial year with underlying earnings of US$26bn and a US$18bn pre-tax profit to its shareholders. Andrew Mackenzie, BHP's CEO until 2019, said publicly that decarbonisation was a strategic imperative, with failure to act posing an existential risk. Its Pilbara decarbonisation plans were urgent and comprehensive, and involved rapid electrification of locomotives and haulage trucks, and a massive buildout of solar to reduce diesel and gas dependence. It had plans to deploy US$3bn in decarbonisation investment by 2030 to underpin its climate targets and secure its licence to operate. Then it all went to the proverbial.  In 2024, CEO Mike Henry introduced BHP's Climate Transition Action Plan (CTAP, aka CRAP), which sounds great except for it being entirely hollow. BHP massively delayed its entire decarbonisation trajectory until after 2030 – trashing its stated intention to address climate risk and abrogating its corporate responsibility to act in this critical decade. Astonishingly, the "plan" forecasts BHP's global emissions will rise from FY2025-FY2030. Up is not down. There is currently categorically zero chance of BHP's plans meeting its net zero by 2050 commitment. In the knowledge that this story was coming, BHP vigorously cranked up the spin machine. A curiously timed pamphlet, released last week by economics consultancy Mandala, which has close ties to the PMO, broke down top ASX listed industrial corporates' global scope 1 and 2 emissions profiles in FY2025 vs FY2020, conveniently pitching BHP as a corporate leader. BHP then mounted an ad campaign trumpeting the trumped-up claims. To call Mandala's brochure misleading is generous. BHP primarily relies on the electrification of BHP's huge Chilean copper mining operations and the closure of the high emissions NickelWest business to boost BHP's decarbonisation credentials and obscures BHP's dereliction of its responsibilities in the Pilbara.  Production-based emissions intensity would tell a different story on BHP's progress, and that of other giants like Rio featured by Mandala – despite the coordinated reporting in The Australian engineered to promulgate the Mandala talking points while bashing genuine decarbonisation leader Fortescue. Why the heel dragging by BHP? Follow the money – the billions paid to the big miners each year by the federal government to maintain their imported diesel addiction.  In Australia, BHP extracts from the taxpayer a $620m annual imported diesel refund covering the staggering 1.2 billion litres of this climate-destroying fuel it uses each year in its mining operations. Diesel powers >60% of BHP's total energy needs. This dependency undermines our national energy independence, which requires an accelerated transition to homegrown renewables, and continues to put Australia's energy security at risk. It persists in an increasingly fraught global geopolitical landscape riven by energy wars – see PM Anthony Albanese begging our trade partners for supply as the global oil supply shock rolls on. And BHP is the #1 beneficiary of this insane structural barrier to mining industry decarbonisation and the massive opportunities for onshoring and reskilling of our workforce.  Meanwhile Fortescue is investing US$6-7bn this decade in electrification, decarbonisation and energy security in the Pilbara – a world leading effort to position Australian iron ore mining at the forefront of emissions reduction. It is partnering with the best cleantech firms in the world, who happen to mostly be domiciled in China – Australia's #1 trade partner and biggest iron ore customer. In so doing it is building important geopolitical bridges for Australia even as world trade is undermined by the US.  Despite being a leading beneficiary of the diesel subsidy, Fortescue is a vocal advocate of urgent reform, as demonstrated by CEO Dino Otranto on Four Corners. Fortescue supports CEF's position that the subsidy should be capped at $50m per firm pa, with recipients required to invest any refund above that threshold in decarbonisation, or forgo that amount. This reform would convert a massive headwind to energy transition in mining to a Transition Tax Incentive, instantly accelerating decarbonisation and enabling Australia to grasp the immense green industrial opportunities of the emerging net zero global economy. A tightening of the Safeguard Mechanism is also key to incentivising decarbonisation, with a progressive ratcheting up of minimum Australian Carbon Credit Unit prices, to make polluters like BHP meaningfully cut emissions or pay. The facts are that BHP, like Rio Tinto, Hancock Prospecting and Fortescue for the past 6 years have tapped into literal rivers of gold from their iron ore exports, booking return on capital ranging from 30% pa up to 70% pa. BHP's FY2025 results for WA iron ore cite an "5 year average return of ~65%", which any company would kill for. They have the capital firepower to massively invest, accelerate electrification and decarbonisation of the Pilbara now as Fortescue is doing, and lead the world. Yet they sit on their hands. The region has a pathetic renewable energy penetration of just 2% versus 44% for Australia's national grid. We need an end to the Big Australian's gutless reversals on climate, cheap talk and abysmal underinvestment in Australian decarbonisation. Equally, we need an urgent show of political courage from the government to decouple BHP and its counterparts from the firehose of diesel cash they have clamped themselves to at the expense of the people and the planet. What's coming up?  27/28 May 2026 CEF Tim will be attending the Hunter New Energy Symposium in Newcastle to talk about the progress in the Hunter Valley on practical advances in the energy transition as it is occurring there. 18-27th June Tim is in China with Austrade and SEC seeing my favourite companies e.g. XCMG, Sigenergy, China State Grid, Windrose & Xiami.

Tim Buckley from Climate and Energy Finance joins to discuss the good, bad and the ugly from the federal budget, how to fix the Capacity Investment Scheme, and other news.

"In 1960s New York City lived a blind, often homeless man with a long, flowing beard, who dressed as a Viking and stood sentinel at the corner of West 54th Street and Sixth Avenue in midtown Manhattan. He sold his poetry and performed on custom-built percussion.  His recordings are considered legendary pieces of original sound emanating from a unique artist who continues to be misunderstood and under appreciated.""Nico was used to being treated as a physical spectacle. At the Dom, Leonard Cohen was a regular guest, and he began writing songs in hopes of seducing her. Her improbable bone structure, and her role in “La Dolce Vita,” intrigued prominent rock managers like Albert Grossman, who worked with Bob Dylan. But her songs were less appealing, and the Dom's clientele often laughed through her set. She was eventually accompanied on guitar by Tim Buckley, and then by Jackson Browne, who had just arrived in New York. Browne became enamored with Nico, and before they fell out—she accused him of harassing her with obscene phone calls—he gave her two songs: “The Fairest of the Seasons” and “These Days,” both of which appeared on her 1967 début, “Chelsea Girl.”-

They combine guitars, flute, harp, keyboards, bass, and drums, with a stellar female vocalist. There are originals here, as well as reworkings of traditional tunes. Best played as a whole, to illustrate what you'll hear, I'm choosing the opener as my favourite track. Favourite Track: Cafuné Fen Creatures by Fuzzy Lights favorite track The Promise The fifth album for this Cambridge quintet is a fine example of what can happen when you blend psych, folk, drone, and post rock. Female lead vocalist, scratchy violin, guitars, bass, drums, and electronics comprise the makeup of the band. All together, the songs are ominous, dark and eerie, just the kind of thing I love to hear. December by Mediæval Bæbes favorite track January This is an old-fashioned “single” format, a two song release, with the promise of an upcoming full release. As always, superb vocals and musicianship from these women and their guests. The two pieces are decidedly wintery, with the title track being more upbeat in mood. Letters to a Distant Past by Deposed King favorite track Daymare Classically influenced atmospheric and cinematic rock with smatterings of folk, psych, post rock, and some heaviness from time to time, this Hungarian duo deliver once again. This release is best played from start to finish, but I will use Daymare as my favourite track to pique your interest. ICONOCLASTS by Anna von Hausswolff favorite track Unconditional Love feat. Maria von Hausswolff Stunning new release , this one delves deeply into the destruction of idols. It also examines the destruction from personal relationships, with the freedom of resurrection after the depths have been plumbed. Indeed, there is a guest appearance from a true iconoclast, Iggy Pop, on one poignant tune. Her signature dense pipe organ is still here, with plenty of orchestration, plus she adds vocals throughout, with her daughter contributing as well, on my favourite track of the release, A Bridge To Far by MIDLAKE favorite track The Ghouls Midlake are back with another stellar release. They bring their indie alt-rock dreaminess in full force, with some whispers into jazz territory at times. The overall feel is warm and dreamy, with flute and piano flourishes, and a sense of distance, as though listening from a spot down the hall from where the band is playing. Synesthesia by Azam Ali favorite track Song to the Siren Perennial favourite of mine, Azam Ali also brings a new full release of her always sublime music. This one brings plenty of world and electronica, also folk and trance music. It explores feelings of disconnectedness (as during the pandemic), yet still conveying a sense of belonging to the spiritual. She does two cover tunes, one by Natalie Merchant, and this one, my sentimental favourite of the release, Tim Buckley's Song to the Siren The World Under Unsun (24-bit HD audio) by Lunatic Soul favorite track Good Memories Don’t Want to Die The eighth and final in a series of solo releases by Mariusz Duda (on all instruments and vocals), bringing the cycle full circle. He examines complex toxic relationships, rejects them, and finds peace, while retaining what good there was, through introspection and, ultimately forgiveness. There is plenty of forcefulness, but, as one might expect, the delicacy (and harp sounds) of Good Memories Don't Want to Die, is my favourite track.

In the second hour of the show, we are joined by Frank Bonner and Tim Buckley, both of the Daily Memphian, for a roundtable discussion on the current state of Memphis Tigers Football, after Ryan Silverfield leaves for Arkansas

Send us a textThis week on the podcast Azam stops by the discuss her new music, Synesthesia, immigrating tot he US, living through war, menopause, and more. *****It is a song of destruction, of fire consuming everything in its path, yet within that annihilation lies the threshold of renewal, and the promise of something new,” explains internationally beloved singer/songwriter/producer AZAM ALI about her new single “To Pieces,” which is released today, September 4, 2025 via COP International. Taken from her upcoming album Synesthesia which will be released on November 14, 2025, “To Pieces” is a gorgeously aural landscape of echoing strings, cinematic keyboard washes, and tribal percussions, with Azam's ethereal vocals floating above it all like a luminescent spectre.   Deeply layered both musically and lyrically, her sixth solo album Synesthesia is an escape from this tumultuous world, but not without the impact of the cultural and political upheaval. Named after the sensory phenomenon that allows individuals to experience the senses in a different way such as tasting colors or feeling sounds, “synesthesia” is a concept that runs throughout the album. The title track's accelerating beat contrasts with Azam's wispy vocals, generating a neural response that is comforting yet daunting. “This song is very special for me because I tried to capture what the sense of synesthesia that I experience is, the way my senses sometimes overlap, blending sound, color, and texture into a single, immersive perception.” The gauzy and delicate “Autumn of Goodbye” offers a softer and radiant ambiance with Azam holding onto the final moments before letting go (Walk with me / Under the sky / And offer me / The stars / On the way down). Synesthesia also offers two eye-opening covers: Tim Buckley's “Song to the Siren” and Natalie Merchant's “This House Is On Fire.” The former is a moody take on the original, highlighting Azam's octave jumping vocal prowess, while the latter transforms Merchant's languid calypso beat into a propulsive song with Middle Eastern flourishes.  “My music is an invitation to step beyond the confines of time, place, and the fragile vessel of flesh into a universe without borders,” Azam explains. “I want the listener to feel carried into the vastness of the ethereal, where freedom breathes, and every note reveals our part in a greater design. In this realm, we are no longer solitary beings, but shining stars drawn together into galaxies, each tone a reminder that we are participants in a cosmic symphony far larger than ourselves.”  ******If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.
