2025/08/22

I like to try and kick things off on Saturday mornings with a bit of cheer, but I tell you what, it’s hard to look beyond yet another bleak milestone in the appalling war in Gaza. Overnight, the UN-backed food security body has confirmed famine in Gaza City. It has officially reached that threshold, the first time famine has ever been declared in the Middle East. As the UN Secretary General declared, this is a man-made catastrophe. There are many, many third party countries that want to get more aid

Pixies changed the alternative rock game forever. The legendary band out of Boston, Massachusetts has been credited by the likes of Kurt Cobain for their off the wall, guitar shredding influence.

The reason behind the two shows,

2025/08/16

Volunteer numbers at grassroots and community sport clubs around the country are dwindling rapidly, with clubs having fewer than half the volunteers they had five years ago. It comes as the levels of referee abuse and disorderly behaviour on the sidelines rises, with volunteers facing abuse and vitriol from the public. However, there are still positives to getting involved – volunteer coach Haydn Jones joining Jack Tame for a chat about the pros of giving your time to a local team. LISTEN ABOVESee

Built by Australian pioneers as a staging depot on the route between Brisbane and the Gympie goldfields, this venerable wooden pile, with wrapround balcony, is one of the Sunshine Coast's oldest

2025/08/16

When it comes to managing stress, we often think about the big things —job loss, death of a loved one— but what about the everyday stressors? Things like buying a house, getting married, and speaking in public occur much more regularly, and can potentially have a bigger cumulative effect over time. Dr Dougal Sutherland joined Jack Tame to discuss the long-term impact of everyday stressors and what can be done to mitigate potential harm. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy

What does a tennis player have to do with investing? Roger Federer was a Swiss tennis player, ranked world No. 1 in men’s singles for 310 weeks, including a record 237 consecutive weeks. He won 80% of his matches, but only 54% of points, and Ed McKnight thinks there’s something here that can be applied to investing. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When rain and cold weather stops for a day, I go out into the garden. Just looking – Julie often has new inhabitants in the garden and some of those are surprising. Grevillia is a species that hails from Australia. Some older TV Gardening Show watchers may remember Don Burk doing his hour-long shows every week – he loved Grevillia and so do I. In mid-winter, birds and pollinating winter insects will look for these flowers, filled with nectar. White Magnolia are coming out right now. No

2025/08/15

I think we are all served best by transparency in government. Leaders should be accountable for their decisions, and they should be willing to take our questions and answer them in a public format. But it’s pretty clear to me the Covid Inquiry has fallen victim to bad and even cynical design, shaped by politics rather than a sincere desire to get a full accounting of our response. It’s a shame, because it threatens to undermine some of the inquiry’s more useful conclusions. It is a missed
