Australian Weather: Four Seasons in a Week. Jeremy describes Australia's weather as an "eclectic cacophony," experiencing four seasons in one week, including 80°F days and brutally cold winter-like maximums. Severe storms and reported nighttime funnels hit Queensland. The rapid growth of foliage due to this erratic weather is a dangerous omen, potentially creating extra fuel for future summer fires.

Seja talks to her guest Dan Whitford (Cut Copy) about the new album Moments and how the title has made him go into full dad joke/pun mode. He tells Seja about the reasons for the long break between albums, some of the software and hardware that inspired the album and how he feels about his voice after all these years. They chat about their family and band connection to each other, their time signed to Modular Records and how Steve Pav's championing of electronic music with a live element changed the course of Australian dance music. Dan and Seja agree that there is joy in a synth that has been on a journey before you get it, and Dan talks touring on a lower budget. Dan's strange show story was illustrated by Seja.

Games journalist and PC Gamer editor Jody Macgregor joins Liz and Ben to take control of an oddly Pythonesque Rincewind and discuss the 1995 graphic adventure game Discworld from Teeny Weeny Games and Perfect 10 Productions. A nefarious secret society has summoned a dragon in Ankh-Morpork! It's a suspiciously familiar plot, and of course the only one who can save the city is...Rincewind? This wizard might not know any spells, but he's decidedly snarky and cunning - and accompanied by an inventory window on legs. Together, they'll use petty theft, time travel and logic that would put Rube Goldberg to shame to rid the city of this scaly threat forever...twice! Terry Pratchett was famously an early adopter of computers, and a devoted video game player, so its no surprise that there were other Discworld videogames before...er...Discworld. But this 1995 point-and-click graphic adventure game is by far the most well known and beloved of the lot - despite also being infamous for its difficulty, in a genre known for obscure puzzles with illogical solutions! The player controls a version of Rincewind voiced by Eric Idle, who must travel back and forth all over Ankh-Morpork (and to the edge of the Disc) to collect a variety of random objects to save the city. The plot is loosely based on Guards! Guards!, with some flavour from Moving Pictures and a cast drawn from the early wizards novels. It was followed by two more games from the same team: Discworld II: Missing, Presumed...?!, and Discworld Noir, each with quite different visual styles, and the latter with a brand new protagonist. Sadly, all three are “abandonware” - not only unavailable, but languishing in copyright limbo, with no-one sure enough who currently has the rights to get them published again. Have you had a chance to play Discworld? What do you think of this version of Rincewind, Ankh-Morpork and the Disc? Would you like to hear us do episodes about the two other adventure games?

Palace Intrigue delivers the most explosive royal power revelation yet as Congress formally requests interview with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over his "long-standing friendship" with Jeffrey Epstein, citing financial records showing "massage for Andrew" payments that "raise serious questions" about his sex trafficking connections.But Amanda Platell's bombshell column exposes Princess Kate as the true architect of Andrew's destruction, revealing she's been "relentless in her demands for Andrew to be gone" and operates with an "iron fist," determined that her family be "nowhere near the putrid stench of the Yorks and their revolting behaviour." Sources confirm Andrew made "rude" remarks about Kate in the past, leaving William "infuriated." The devastating irony: Andrew once forced commoner Kate to curtsy to him, but now the stripped royal must BOW to the future Queen—and even to his own daughters Beatrice and Eugenie.Meanwhile, the princesses share emotional Mayfair embrace as King Charles orders them to "stand on their own two feet" financially, ending royal "housing association." Plus, Sarah Ferguson considers Australian exile, while Pitch@Palace winds up with mysterious fund withdrawals.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

A landmark report released this week has found Australian boys are feeling pressure to follow restrictive ideas about masculinity - and when they do - they are more likely to hurt themselves and others. Advocates have used a National Press Club address to call for urgent government reform, including a national action plan to improve young people's wellbeing and reduce violence. - На этой неделе был опубликован отчет, согласно которому австралийские подростки-мальчики ощущают давление, связанное с ограниченными представлениями о мужественности. И когда они это делают, они чаще могут наносить вред себе и окружающим.
Australian rules football (AFL) is a popular winter sport in Australia's states, including Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia, and Western Australia. But another oval-shaped ball rules New South Wales and Queensland. But how is this code of footy different from AFL, and what are the rules of this game? In this episode of the SBS Nepali Podcast, we will hear a report based on a conversation with Abhinam Kunwar, a player of Nepali background who is contracted to Sydney-based East Campbelltown Eagles and Ingleburn Tigers, Samrat Lamichhane and Luv Shrestha, who identify themselves as huge rugby fans, and Sahil Shrestha, another Nepali speaker from Sydney who shares his experience with working at a rugby venue. - अस्ट्रेलियाको भिक्टोरिया लगायत टास्मेनिया, साउथ अस्ट्रेलिया, वेस्टर्न अस्ट्रेलिया जस्ता राज्यहरूमा ‘फुटी‘ वा अस्ट्रेलियन रुल्स फुटबल यानी एएफएल लोकप्रिय शितकालिन खेलका रूपमा रहँदै गर्दा न्यु साउथ वेल्स र क्वीन्सल्यान्डमा भने रग्बीको राम्रो पकड रहेको छ। तर कसरी खेलिन्छ रग्बी अनि अनि के-कस्ता छन् त अण्डाकार बल भएको यो खेलका नियमहरू? एसबीएस नेपाली पोडकास्टको यो अङ्कमा आज हामी यिनै कुराहरूमा केन्द्रित रहँदै सिड्नी स्थित इस्ट क्याम्बेलटाउन इगल्स र इगल्बर्न टाइगर्ससँग अनुबन्धित भएका एक नेपाली पृष्ठभूमिका खेलाडी अभिनम कुँवर, रग्बीका फ्यानका रूपमा आफूहरूलाई चिनाउने सम्राट् लामिछाने तथा लव श्रेष्ठ अनि रग्बी मैदानमा काम गरेको अनुभव भएका अर्का एक नेपालीभाषी साहिल श्रेष्ठसँगको कुराकानीका आधारमा तयार पारिएको रिपोर्ट सुन्नेछौं।

Six young friends ventured to the basin one evening to investigate the area's mysterious reputation for paranormal activity. After a picnic by the lake, their car suddenly refused to start — and that's when one of them spotted something extraordinary: a strange, otherworldly object resting on a nearby hill. What followed became one of Australia's most intriguing UFO encounters, blending elements of high strangeness, missing time, and unexplained phenomena.

The Australian defense minister said this week that China's military defense build up required a response. China's defense spending has increased 13 fold in the past 30 years, while its Navy is projected to grow by nearly 50% by the end of the decade. That last statistic would be of particular concern to Australia's defense minister, Richard Marles, who said that open sea lanes, including around China, are crucial to Australia's national security. So how is great power competition playing out in the Asia-Pacific? What is the role of Australia, AUKUS and the Quad, and can America's allies trust the US and its nuclear umbrella to be there as it seeks to disengage from the world. Host Christian Smith is with GPF Chairman George Friedman to discuss this and much more. Visit http://www.geopoliticalfutures.com for world-class geopolitical analysis and discussion.

Australia needs control over its intelligence layer, not just its data. We explore SCX's sovereign AI cloud, Project Magpie's cultural reasoning, and why inference economics and time-to-market beat hype-driven buildouts.• sovereign AI as control and context, not just security• SCX's inference cloud and partnership with SambaNova• Project Magpie fine-tuning the reasoning layer for Australia• training vs inference split to optimize cost and speed• tokens per kilowatt as the core unit economics• open source vs closed models in enterprise adoption• retrofitting existing data centers with pre-assembled racks• moving pilots to production through cost, control, and confidence• regional strategy across Southeast Asia and exportable tokens• agents shifting work to domain teams, doing more not just cutting costs• candid MBA debate on value, narrative, and people skills• playful Spark Tank on pickleball and rapid-fire personal insightsWhat if a nation's most critical asset isn't oil, power, or spectrum—but intelligence? We sit down with Southern Cross AI (SCX) founder David Keane, co-founder and CSO Akash Agrawal, and SambaNova's Chief Product and Strategy Officer Abhi Ingle to unpack how a sovereign AI cloud can protect context, culture, and control while still competing on cost and speed. From Australia's national needs to regional demand across Southeast Asia, we chart a pragmatic route from vision to working systems.David explains why SCX is built around inference as a service and how Project Magpie fine-tunes the reasoning layer so models “think like an Australian,” reflecting local law, language, and norms. Abhi breaks down training vs inference in plain English, clarifying why pretraining might live on massive GPU clusters while high-throughput, energy-efficient inference thrives on SambaNova's ASIC-based systems. Akash digs into enterprise realities—data sovereignty, runaway costs, and integration roadblocks—and makes the case for open source models you can fork, fine-tune, and operate within your perimeter.We get practical about tokens per kilowatt as the new ROI, pre-assembled racks that drop into existing data centers, and managed services that cut time-to-market from years to months. We explore why most buyers don't care which chip is under the hood—they care about latency, reliability, and price—and how that shifts competition from hardware logos to delivered outcomes.

We'd love to have your feedback and ideas for future episodes of Retail Unwrapped. Just text us!Here's a stark warning for beauty executives: Brands that cling to traditional manufacturing models are already obsolete—they just don't know it yet. The challenges facing beauty CMOs are hitting critical mass: It's not just driving growth, it's how to get to market at the speed of culture shifts and keep up digitally and socially. Lauren Thermos is General Manager of Atelier, an Australian product innovation studio dedicated to bringing new products to market faster and better, and a self-described disrupter. Join Lauren and Shelley as they reveal the weak spots of a trendy business where many beauty brands are off trend out of the gate to meet the demands of savvy customers. They discuss the antiquated 18-to-36-month product development cycle, agentic AI (Chat GPT) marketing that shrinks the time between researching and making a decision to buy and will eliminate the need for traditional advertising; and the rise of TikTok as the marketing and product launch platform of choice for young consumers. They also pull back the curtain on why fast-tracked indie creators and celebrity-founded beauty brands are eclipsing many traditional beauty behemoths.

Bushy Martin helps you reset your stance for success - by switching your focus from what might change to what never changes. Markets are messy, media is manic, and fads are fickle. Yet amid all the noise, the investors who win are those anchored to the fundamentals that always hold true. Bushy unpacks how to build a property plan that compounds over time, regardless of market moods or media cycles. With over four decades and $4B+ in property finance experience, Bushy explains why people don’t change—and how smart investors can out-structure their emotions, leverage finance as the true market mover, and buy before the crowd turns fundamentals into “hot spots.” Whether you’re an aspiring or seasoned investor, this episode will help you stop reacting to headlines and start compounding the principles that always deliver. Key Takeaways Stop reacting to headlines; start compounding fundamentals. People don’t change—so design your plan to out-structure your emotions. Future growth hides in the 3 I’s & 3 P’s; medians and averages mask the real gems. Finance is the lever: access to credit moves markets more than markets move themselves. Plan for the worst, manage for the best - buffers buy time, and time lets compounding win. Be the contrarian: buy before the pied pipers turn fundamentals into ‘hot spots.’ If you don't know Bushy, he is one of Australia’s most trusted property finance strategists, host of the award-winning Get Invested podcast, and author of The Freedom Formula. Over 40 years and $4B+ in finance experience, Bushy helps everyday Aussies design a lifestyle by choice - using property the right way, with the right structure, and the right team.

The ACC vs union work from home legal case is a good one and it became even better after the Westpac dispute in Australia last week. There are two bits to these sorts of cases. One was the specific, as in what's in a contract, what's the wording, what have you agreed to and what haven't you agreed to. Then you've got the moral question; the big picture, the team spirit and the attitude. Work from home is a symptom of all that is wrong with productivity and very few do productivity as poorly as this country. Covid wrecked the workplace. It allowed for work from home to be invented. Not literally, but generally for a period it was all you could do. From that moment a seed was planted, and the seed has grown into a mindset. Over a remarkably short period of time the idea became a habit, a right and, for some, the norm. Not just that, but so entrenched did it become in the minds of some that what was once not even an idea became something to be outraged about if the spectre of it ending was even uttered. Even though you have spent the vast majority of your working life going to the office. No one jumps on a get-out-of-jail card quicker than a union. I don't know what was, and wasn't, said at the ACC. But what I do know is work from home has become a gargantuan piss take. Don't get me wrong – you save on the commute, the cost of parking, and you don't have to worry about hoping the bus is on time. It all makes sense from a selfish point of view. The Australian case even had the woman moving miles from town so she could drop her kid off at the special school they had selected. Westpac said that was a lifestyle choice, which unquestionably it was, but tough luck said the court and the woman won. So maybe ACC are onto a hiding to nothing. Let's see. But specifics aside, work is a quid pro quo and taking the mickey, which is what work from home is now that you aren't locked down, isn't a balanced relationship. It's a material shift, born of necessity, and then abused. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We survived our live event! And better still we got to meet amazing Brainiacs and Susie got to witness Sarah embody the ghost of PeeWee Herman. It was incredible. We share how we violated one of our sacred principles when we participated in an activity we've previously railed against (we did not climb Mt. Everest). We discuss the woman who was left behind by a cruise ship on a deserted Australian island, and we debate how she died. Sarah reveals the age of the oldest crayon, but more importantly, we learn what it tells us about the human spirit. We talk about a controversial OnlyFans policy that is creating a MLM structure to the site. Sarah theorizes why costumes are getting hyperspecific, and Susie is mad about it. Plus, we learn about the female pitcher who struck out Babe Ruth, and why some people are calling foul.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Black Friday has come early at https://cozyearth.com!

Send us a text Through all the emails that we get, some of the most entertaining, as well as humbling emails, have came from the Australians. This year, a group of them came to the United States to travel and visit as many venues as possible, and shoot as many targets as they could, before ending up at the National Championship! The numbers of clubs and targets are staggering! We caught up with Jason Solomons in San Antonio, and it was clear that we had to get a podcast recorded with this group! Through the many challenges that they face in their country for shooting, they stay persistent to the game, and strive to help grow the sport both abroad and at home!

Space dog Laika and Sputnik II were the green light for the Cold War missile and space races to accelerate at warp speed. With the Russians out in front, the Americans were hellbent on catching up, using Nazi war-criminal know-how as they kicked around making the moon into a military base to launch nukes at the Commies. Meanwhile, as people everywhere were seeing UFOs and worrying about subliminal brainwashing, Sydney and Melbourne had some very specific problems – surviving freak weather and enduring the loved-up antics of Liz Taylor and Mike Todd.It's easy to get a free trial that will give you access to ad-free, early and bonus episodes.
