It's out with the old and in with the older for the Australian rugby team. With less than eight months until the World Cup in France, the Wallabies have sacked their coach, New Zealander Dave Rennie, and replaced him with veteran Eddie Jones, whom himself was fired as England's head coach just last month. Jones was last in charge of the Australian team from 2001 until 2005, during which time he coached the Wallabies to a Rugby World Cup final, and a Tri Nations series win. Sports writer, Jamie Wall spoke to Jimmy Ellingham.  

Well, that's how to start a year! Nick and Natho are on deck off the back of the huge news that Eddie Jones has replaced Dave Rennie as coach of the Wallabies. Welcome to 2023, he's gonna be a bumpy ride! WARNING: Occasional swear wordSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ugo and Chris are at Twickenham to chat to Steve Borthwick about his 36-man squad for the Six Nations, but has the news been overshadowed somewhat by his predecessor? They quiz Borthwick on the decision to name Owen Farrell captain and the controversy around his ban. Plus, Borthwick tells us about the difficult conversations he had with those players who missed out on selection. Kevin Sinfield also stops by for a chat about who his defensive leaders will be, tackle technique and how proud he'll be to coach England at Twickenham for the first time. And we discuss a sensational return to the Wallabies for Eddie Jones. Will he come back to haunt his previous employer at the World Cup? There's also a look back at the weekend's Champions Cup action which included big wins for Ospreys and Edinburgh.

The boys are back, Chubby has recovered from Bali Belly, Jed made his way back to China. Why have they locked up Andrew Tate? Does minimum wage increase the cost of living?, should some people not deserve to live? is Eddie Jones joining the Wallabies coaching staff right before the World Cup the dumbest idea ever? we don't know either. But we discuss all this and more on the latest episode.

He was the captain of the Wallabies, the only Australian player to be included in World Rugby's team of the decade, but - wildly – retired at the height of his career to devote his life to climate activist projects here in Australia and in Africa. I recorded this interview shortly after David quit rugby and several months before he decided to run as an independent Senator in the Australian Parliament. He won the ticket and has gone on to become an extremely powerful and highly regarded political voice in this country and a bit of a figure of intrigue…how did such an introverted, considered WEAPON OF A FOOTBALL player wind up here? It seemingly makes no sense. This is why I figured many of you would love to listen to this chat (perhaps for a second time) in which he wrestles with how he can best make an impact. It provides some wonderful insight into the thinking that preceded his decision to enter politics.Dave and I became friends talking about activism, Jungian psychology and the meaning of life over Instagram some time back. In this chat, he talks with me about grief, why Australian men aren't waking up, the sadness of facing the climate reality, and – yeah – how to make a wild decision. Dave promised to send a list of the books that have shaped his wildness. He's a man of his word; Living Between Worlds - James Hollis Food Fix - Mark HymanFinding Resilience - Brian WalkerEverything is Spiritual - Rob BellThe Will to Change - bell hooksA Life on Our Planet - David AttenboroughCall of the Reed Warbler - Charles MassyIf you need to know a bit more about me… head to my "about" pageSubscribe to my Substack newsletter for more such conversations Get your copy of my book, This One Wild and Precious Life Let's connect on Instagram!

What do you think you could learn living around the world?

A man of many talents, George played multiple sports at a high level before settling on rugby and becoming known as one of the most prolific players and toughest competitors in the world, earning 139 caps playing for the Wallabies. George also played for the ACT Brumbies, Toulon in France and Suntory Japan.

He's barely finished working with England, but Rugby Australia has already spoken to ex-Wallabies coach Eddie Jones. Less than a year out from a World Cup, could he join the Aussie rugby set up and in what capacity? How would it impact existing coach Dave Rennie who's hard work has only just begun to show signs of bearing fruit? We look at the coaching quandary before Rugby Australia. Featured: Iain Payten, rugby writer, Sydney Morning Herald Subscribe to the ABC Sport Newsletter

Special Title: San Diego Zoo and Safari Parks Wildlife Alliance Part 1 of 2   In this episode:  The FAQ is: What is your purpose for traveling? Today's Special episode:  San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance Part 1 Today's Mistake- Time zone mayhem Travel Advice:  Prioritize Flexibility   In this episode: FAQ What is your purpose for travel? Answer: My purpose for traveling and especially solo travel, is to reach into places that may not be the most populated and to connect with women where they are to help bridge the culture gap. World peace is the ultimate goal for seeing this through. If I can reach 1,000,000 women and help 1000 of them travel solo, that is my specific goal next year! I'll be asking if and how I helped you. Destination: Part 1 of 2 San Diego Zoo and Safari Parks is now the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance The Wildlife Alliance is trying to create a world where all life thrives. They have two front doors. In this episode, we focus on the Zoo, and in the next episode, it will be the Safari Park, formerly known as the Wild Animal Park. https://sandiegozoowildlifealliance.org/ https://sdzsafaripark.org/tickets Ambassadors are all around to help with saving, protecting, and preserving all around the world. Rick Schwartz is a spokesperson; if you call their website's phone number, you will hear all about their good works. You will hear about how the Northern White Rhinos are endangered. Wildlife rescue centers like this does research. It's vet science on steroids. They are leveraging 100 years of wildlife science. Several species are new and born at the park. https://sandiegozoowildlifealliance.org/sites/default/files/2022-03/Annual_Report_PHL22.pdf   It's full of some of the rarest species. I will name a few animals, but you have to come to see them in person. The Wallabies, Kangaroos and koalas are some of the best exhibits, so head to the Aussie side of the park, where you may find smaller crowds even on a busy day. The gorillas and the chimpanzees are also lively, and the kids bounce around. There is a free tram you can ride around the park. It is a stop-and-get-off anywhere you want. There are a lot of hills, so this does help with so much walking. There is a paid guided tour you can ride as well.  The elephants are easy to spot, and you see them pretty close up! Me: My favorite places in the zoo are the koalas, where even though these animals sleep most of the day, they are still cute. The girls' koala exhibit is one of the best. I like to see the birds' exhibits here. The main attractions are Africa Rocks, with baboons, lemurs, and leopards. Polar Bear Plunge, with an immersive Artic habitat, and see the polar bears above and below the water's surface.  The Skyfari Aerial Tram will take you over the wildlife habitats with a view of Balboa Park. Today's Mistake: Time zone mayhem I've struggled with the right time zones for meetings and travel. Synching devices and software don't work. If you frequently change time zones, you know how challenging it is. I arrived late for a big meeting. I arrived an hour ahead of time on another day. Remember to adjust for the time difference.   Lessons Learned- Carrying too many bags   My friend carried too many bags and could not carry them all in one trip. They should have brought less stuff. Instead of bringing several items, they should consolidate and only bring the minimum needed. Even if you are traveling for a month, you can still manage with the minimum baggage. I traveled for a month with a personal item only. You can do it, too. Today's Travel Advice: Prioritize Flexibility Like never before for a traveler, there are choices. Due to that, you should consider paying more for flexibility. What are some new variables? Airports may have a luggage malfunction; check-in times can be longer due to airport staffing shortages, and the weather can change quickly. You can pay for a partial refund or refund with a fee option. Airbnb's now have cancellation policies. Hotels are more flexible now. It used to be the other way around. Connect to like-minded women and get inspiration from them through your journeys, big and small. Discover the many talents of others by asking meaningful questions about philosophy and not just the weather.   I want to bring meaning to your travels.  Send questions and tips to info@drmarytravelbest.com.
