Making Better Decisions - Ben Newell Knows The Power...

Finding Nature ·

2025/10/21

All of us want to make better decisions, and lots of us wish the people around us would make decisions that we thought were better. Imagine being able to do this just by understanding the mechanics and mechanisms of our cognition, by re-organinising how information is presented or communicated to improve engagement or action. Cognitive science and behavioural economics has gone through a huge increase in popularity over the last decade, and while it’s been used to tremendous success in contex...

2025/10/14

Today on the show is Tammi Miller, who was previously a guest in episode 38 after she released her terrific and first book, Paperback Therapy. She’s back today for a different type of episode - a take on the AMA format, but instead of me it’s Ask Tammi Anything. Tammi is a certified practising counsellor, a mental health therapist and as I mentioned, an author.

Finding Nature ·

2025/09/30

Today on the show is the first and second most popular guest to date - Cameron Tonkinwise. Making his third appearance, Cameron’s previous episodes - number 9 and 40 - equated to a gigantic jump in listenership as well as the number of places the show was getting picked up in. That I think says everything about Cameron - his career and work to date across design, academia and in practice is both unique and special. I’ve had the great pleasure and privilege to work a lot with Cameron over the ...

2025/09/23

Licia Heath is the CEO of Women for Election and she’s on the show today to talk many things politics, women in politics and the future of women in politics. Despite being in a context where slowly slowly incrementalism at best seems to be the political program at the moment - from a middling 2035 emissions target to housing to gender violence to tax reform to indicating support for the theft of creative intellectual property, it can be difficult to remember that just six years ago the federa...

2025/09/16

This week on the show I have the sister and brother duo Emily and Jack Rowland. Individually Emily and Jack are up to vital work across ocean conservation, plastics eradication, food system revitalisation and equitable health care outcomes, but together they create a dynamic and diverse way of being and doing in the world that I wanted to bring onto the show. One thing I’m conscious of with this show is the age of the guests that I have on - leaning towards speaking with and learning from exp...

Today on the show I have Elaine Johnson - a leading landowner advocate and environment and climate lawyer who’s led some of the most consequential cases against fossil fuel expansion in this state. Her work in and with communities who are opposing the deleterious local impacts of more pollution and being able to frame that within a larger climate change debate is truly remarkable and vital work. In light of the International Court of Justice’s advisory opinion in July regarding the new consid...

Jimmy Stanton-Cooke is on the show this week, and I am so pleased to be bringing you this chat. Already Jimmy has lived the life of a vagabond, a ratbag and a pioneer as well as an agricultural science high school teacher. Few are like him, and to have him on the show today was a long held aspiration and a chance to get beyond the high energy public persona who lived without half of his beard for seven years. Jimmy is certainly a man of infinite vitality and action, but underneath that is a c...

Daniel Principe is today’s guest, and this is a conversation I’ve been wanting to have for the entire year, so I’m very pleased to be bringing him onto the show and into your earbuds. I can’t overstate just how important and serious the work that Dan does visiting schools day in day out to engage mostly boys on topics of masculinity, responsibility, pornography, identity and countering the onslaught of toxic and unhealthy messages an unfilled and unregulated information system that kids today...
