Alongside Yongala, the Adelaide Steamship Company prided itself on its luxury vessel Koombana, designed especially to work the Western Australian coast. But this was a seemingly cursed vessel, where anything that could go wrong did, from disappearing and dead passengers, to collisions, fires and a broken loaf of bread that not only triggered a national crisis but sent a handful of men to their fates.Part Three – Beyond Human Knowledgeis available now ad-free for Apple and Patreon supporters.Patreon: patreon.com/forgottenaustraliaApple: apple.co/forgottenaustraliaEmail: forgottenaustraliapodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Episode 216 A Labor Day check-in from two UPS Teamsters who split the episode between rough work stories, a strong family weekend, and some pointed union talk. Dave and Luke also dig into a serious college football rant about Joe Paterno and Jerry Sandusky, with Luke laying out why the history around Penn State should not be glossed over.We discuss the realities of bad routes, weak local support, and what drivers can do when grievances get ignored. Then Dave shares a more personal highlight from the weekend, watching his sons get into skateboarding and helping Xander build a custom board. Key topics In this episode, Luke breaks down one of the worst Mondays he can remember - an unfamiliar country route, extra pickups, road crews, and a four-mile paving job that trapped him for 30 to 40 minutes. He explains how the delay cascaded into a brutal day: 12 hours on the clock, 158 miles driven, and no interstate time at all. Dave compares it to his own recent experience getting stuck behind paving work for about 20 to 25 minutes, calling it the kind of nonsense drivers are forced to just endure. The hosts talk about the frustration of AI dispatching and how every new company change seems to create more problems instead of fewer. Dave shares a much better part of the week: helping his mother-in-law move local items with a U-Haul, including a dining room table, buffet cabinet, side table, and outdoor furniture. He also рассказывает how his son Xander got a custom skateboard deck for his birthday and how both boys got excited about skating. Dave describes the parent moment of helping Xander assemble the board, then watching Grant land a simple trick after repeated tries. The episode shifts into union concerns, especially what happens when locals are weak, corrupt, or unresponsive to grievances and drivers feel like their dues are going nowhere. Luke raises the question of what national leadership can do about locals that ignore the contract or fail to back up members. The episode closes with Luke's strong criticism of honoring Joe Paterno while the Jerry Sandusky scandal remains part of the program's history. Timestamps 00:00 - Patreon shout-outs, Labor Day greeting, and episode setup 02:28 - Welcome back and what kind of week everyone had 03:12 - Luke's “More Area Monday” and the start of the worst route day 05:12 - Road crews, side roads, and getting boxed in by paving work 06:39 - Four miles of paving turns a delivery day into a logjam 08:37 - No cell service, bad ETA math, and falling behind on pickups 10:55 - 12-hour day, 158 miles, and a brutal Monday that ruined the week 11:53 - How long the construction delay actually lasted 12:37 - Spotify keeping podcasts going when service disappears 14:31 - Dave's own paving delay and the “brainwashed to keep moving” feeling 15:01 - Dave's rough week and frustration with AI dispatching 16:17 - Helping move family furniture with a U-Haul 18:28 - Xander gets into skateboarding and wants lessons 19:57 - Building a custom skateboard from the ground up 20:51 - Watching your kid love something you loved too 22:50 - Grant lands a trick after repeated tries 24:00 - U-Haul insurance, driving nerves, and close calls 25:27 - Transition into union locals and why some are stronger than others 26:10 - What leadership can do about shady or weak locals 29:13 - The Tennessee local example and a grievance system that failed 31:37 - Why shop stewards get burned out when the hall doesn't help 33:14 - Why drivers stop trusting the union when grievances go nowhere 35:52 - College football rant: Joe Paterno, Jerry Sandusky, and why the history matters 40:01 - Why Luke thinks Paterno should not be honored 43:08 - Closing advice: be safe, ask for help, and speak up on grievances Notable Quotes “I had maybe the unluckiest day of all time.” “You just wanna go. That's what we're brainwashed to do.” “Ask for help if you need it too for any grievances.”   www.patreon.com/aitdpod https://discord.gg/hm8WMUKVF8  takeaways Shoutout to Patreon subscribers for their support. Labor Day provided a much-needed break for everyone. Monday deliveries can be particularly challenging. Unlucky days happen to all delivery drivers. Construction delays can significantly impact delivery schedules. Personal experiences can resonate with listeners. Family activities, like skateboarding, bring joy and connection. Sharing personal stories fosters a sense of community. Navigating work-life balance is a common struggle. The excitement of children can reignite parental passions. The thrill of landing a skateboarding trick is unmatched. U-Haul experiences can lead to humorous stories. Union locals vary greatly in their effectiveness and integrity. Corruption in unions can lead to disillusionment among members. Shop stewards often feel unsupported in their roles. Drivers may question the value of their union dues. Online communities can provide support for union grievances. Joe Paterno's legacy is complicated by serious moral failures. Honoring figures like Paterno raises ethical questions. The importance of speaking out against injustices in sports.

Order my new book - The Price of Becoming www.LearningLeader.com/Becoming The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. My Guest - Tina Seelig has spent 27 years at Stanford teaching some of the world's most ambitious people how to see and seize opportunities. She's a neuroscientist, the executive director of Knight Hennessy Scholars, and the author of 18 books. Her TED Talk on luck has been viewed over 3.4 million times. Her newest book is called What I Wish I Knew About Luck: A Crash Course on Turning Aspirations into Achievements. Key Learnings Tina's dad died at 99 and a half. Three weeks before his first great-grandbaby was born. He was still driving, going to three dinner parties a week, and talking to Tina every day. His curiosity was his superpower. He gave 66 lectures in his retirement community over 20 years, on topics ranging from nuclear weapons to climate change. Train yourself to be a professional noticer. When Tina's dad walked his grandkids into a new room, he'd give them a minute, then say "Shut your eyes." How many doors? Windows? What color is the carpet? Assume there's a million dollars in every room. It's up to you to find it. Opportunities are ubiquitous. You just have to look. Take the headphones off. The most powerful things happen when you engage with strangers. Standing in line. On the plane. Walking through campus. Tina sat next to a stranger named Mark on a plane. He was a publisher. He said no to her book proposal. She kept the relationship going. Years later, his editor approved the same proposal she had given Mark. Within two weeks, she had a contract. Wear something that invites conversation. A logo. A backpack from a conference. A college baseball shirt. Give the world a hook to start with you. Fortune is what happens to you. Luck requires action. Most people confuse the two and miss the chance to claim their agency. "With my luck, it's gonna rain." Reframe it: "With OUR luck, it's gonna be a beautiful sunny day." The reframe changes what you see.  Luck seldom sails solo. Most luck comes through other people. Cultivating meaningful relationships is the most underrated lucky behavior. You don't get a job. You get the keys to the building. The visible work isn't what gets you ahead. The invisible work is. Between stimulus and response is a choice. (Viktor Frankl) Within the constraints of fortune, agency is everything. "Tina, you think like a scientist." One sentence from a professor changed Tina's life. Leaders, know the weight of your words. Twenty years later, Tina wrote that professor a thank-you note. Twenty years after that, his granddaughter wrote back. They had read part of Tina's letter at his funeral. When a student made a bad decision, Tina's first instinct was to punish. She paused. Said, "Help me understand what happened." The whole community learned what empathy and humility look like in leadership. Unresolved conflict sucks the energy out of your day. Resolve it. You become taller, lighter, more open to lucky things. Oliver Greenwald sent Tina a list of 10 ways he could help her with her book. Nothing on the list was exactly what she wanted. She hired him anyway, because of the initiative. Build the sail to catch the wind. Build the ship. Your internal work. Values. Story. Goals. Recruit the crew. The people in your world. Hoist the sail. What you do every single day. Your core values are the keel of your ship. Without them, the first strong wind capsizes you. Keep a failure resume. Document what didn't work and what you'll do differently. Don't perseverate. Move on. "It's all good in the end. If it's not good, it's not the end." We're always in the middle of the story. Tina sends thank-you notes every single day. Five or ten minutes. Three or four sentences. Closes the loop. Builds the relationship. Don't end the dinner without making the next date. Most people drop the ball. Get it on the calendar before you leave. The instant you think something positive about someone, tell them. Be specific. Text. Email. Call. The instant. Tina's champagne moment: her newborn granddaughter at one year old. She just learned to turn over and looks so proud of herself. Reflection Questions What's on your failure resume right now that you haven't yet extracted the lesson from? Are you perseverating, or moving on? Whose thank-you note are you going to send today? Specific, genuine, unprompted.  Where in your life are you waiting for fortune and calling it bad luck? What is the action you've been avoiding because it requires you to put yourself out there?

Have you ever wondered why you keep ending up in the same kind of relationship, even when the person looks completely different?In this episode of Sarah's Thoughts, Sarah Grynberg explores the hidden emotional patterns that shape who we choose, why certain relationships feel instantly magnetic, and how our nervous systems often mistake familiarity for love. She reflects on the unconscious ways childhood experiences and emotional conditioning influence attraction, connection, and the cycles we continue repeating without realising it.Sarah unpacks the difference between healthy love and familiar dysfunction, and why so many people unknowingly recreate emotional dynamics that feel “safe” simply because they recognise them. She also explores how awareness becomes the first real step toward changing the patterns that no longer serve us.You'll learn:Why familiar relationship dynamics can feel more attractive than healthy onesHow childhood emotional experiences shape the partners we chooseThe mindset shift that helps break repetitive relationship patternsThis episode is a reminder that you are not broken, difficult to love, or doomed to repeat the same story forever. The patterns you carry were learned, which means they can also be unlearned. And sometimes the biggest shift in your love life doesn't come from finding someone new, but from finally recognising what you've been unconsciously saying yes to all along.Purchase Sarah's book: Living A Life Of Greatness here.To purchase Living A Life of Greatness outside Australia here or here.Watch A Life of Greatness Episodes On Youtube here.Sign up for Sarah's newsletter (Greatness Guide) here.Purchase Sarah's Meditations here.Instagram: @sarahgrynberg Website: https://sarahgrynberg.com/Facebook: facebook.com/sarahgrynbergTwitter: twitter.com/sarahgrynberg Hosted on Acast.

Everyone keeps telling Neil how lucky he is — lucky to do what he loves, lucky to travel, lucky to work alongside his son. But what if "luck" is just a lazy word for the years of grind, sacrifice and uncommon decisions most people aren't willing to make? Recorded on the road in Osaka, Japan, this solo episode digs into whether luck is real at all. Neil unpacks a decade-long study by Dr Richard Wiseman at the University of Hertfordshire, which suggests lucky people aren't passive recipients of fate — they create their own fortune through identifiable, trainable traits. You'll learn the four research-backed characteristics that lucky people share — openness and flexibility, relaxed attention, trusting your intuition, and positive expectation — and how each one applies directly to building and growing your tutoring business. It's a practical, no-BS look at turning chance into opportunity. If you've ever been told you're "just lucky," this one's for you. KEY TAKEAWAYS Reframe "luck" as the by-product of doing difficult, uncommon things — the risks, the work and the sacrifice that others simply aren't willing to take on. Cultivate openness and flexibility: staying open to new experiences widens your "catchment area" for opportunity, which links directly to entrepreneurial risk tolerance. Adopt relaxed attention rather than constant worry — anxiety and rigid focus cause you to miss the opportunities and patterns hiding in plain sight. Train your intuition through practices like journaling and meditation, then trust your gut when making career and relationship decisions. Hold positive expectations for the future, because your brain sorts for what you expect — making optimism a self-fulfilling prophecy and a non-negotiable for success. QUOTES "It's not lucky if you get what you want, if you go where you want, and you're with whom you want." "Balance to me just means average, means mediocre. And I wouldn't be settling for that." "Lazy is a shortcut word. It's a placeholder that allows shallow minds to bypass the process of how success and mastery is actually built." "They didn't see the years of grind and sweat and sacrifice that gets you to a position where people think that you're lucky." "You always get what you expect because it's what you're looking for and it's what your brain sorts for."

The unexamined stuff in us — today — is shaping our external experiences tomorrow. We might think of karma like a cosmic scorekeeper out there keeping tabs on us. Like the universe is going to get us back eventually. But Carl Jung saw something more insightful: your inner life doesn't stay inner. Whatever you haven't faced, whatever you haven't worked through — it leaks out and becomes your circumstances. It becomes the people who drive you crazy. It becomes the problems that just seem to follow you around. In this episode Raghunath and Kaustubha explore a passage from the Srimad Bhagavatam — an ancient Sanskrit text on consciousness and devotion — where Krishna, as a little boy, explains karma as a universal law that reflects our inner world with perfect precision. Wisdom of the Sages exists to help you look within — before life does it for you. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?
