The Great Housing Hijack with Dr Cameron Murray
What is the deal with our obsession with house prices? Is it right that a basic need has been turned into a speculative investment?
Are rocketing house prices real or just inflation by another name?
Property expert Dr Cameron Murray was one of the only economists to correctly predict a 20% surge in house prices would occur during the Covid years. He returned to Discernable to lay out future trajectories of housing prices and rents and explain what we are seeing in 2024.

The Cancelled Professor - Nikolai Petrovsky the Vaccine Inventor
Professor Nikolai Petrovsky invented a Covid-19 vaccine.
He took his own vaccine.
He was fired and cancelled for refusing and calling out the potential dangers of competing technologies (mRNA).
He has been labelled a conspiracy theorist and an 'antivaxxer' in a stunning display of ignorance and doublespeak.

Jay Vidanage: Employers are Liable for Mandates
Jay Vidanage is a barrister and solicitor from Old Port Chambers in Adelaide, Australia. Jay believes that it's only a matter of time before the wheels of justice come down on vaccine mandates. He points to recent wins in court that demonstrate a shift in judicial tone around Covid-19, vaccines, and vaccine mandates.
Most concerning is the way mandates and directions are being declared unlawful by courts, for varying reasons, leaving employers exposed for any harms they may have caused their employees by enforcing what they thought were valid government mandates.
Jay delivers a message of responsibility and warning for all employers to ensure they have covered their own backsides in the way they enforced increasingly unlawful mandates.

Iain Walker: How to Stop Playing Politics
Something in politics is broken. We all know it. Politicians have become masters of getting elected whilst getting nothing done in the real world. Is there a way to get them to focus on solving actual problems rather than chasing polls and keeping their jobs?
Iain Walker is the Executive Director of the New Democracy Foundation, an independent research organisation that designs and implements ‘citizen juries’ to various levels of government around the world.
In this interview we explored how citizen assemblies are making an impact globally, gradually becoming a viable and accepted method of decision making.
Tune in to this interview to hear about how politicians are being incentivised to ‘stop playing politics’ by this new form of public governance.

Stereotypes are Accurate
I was honoured to teach on the accuracy of stereotypes and how these heuristic 'stories' can be weaponised at the recent 'Australians for Science and Freedom Conference' in Sydney.
Here is a behind the scenes look at the conference which I understand they will be airing soon. https://www.scienceandfreedom.org
The truth is: stereotypes are a species [not cultural] wide adaptation that is accurate in the absence of individuating information. Scarily accurate.
Research data continues to be confirm that stereotype accuracy is one of the most replicable effects in all of social psychology.

Thousands of people attend Berwick Church of Christ in Melbourne's SE. But in 2021 their congregation was divided into 2 distinct classes.
Leader throughout was Pastor Braam Botha, who recently joined us for a wide ranging discussion tackling the big issues of ethics and conflict.

'It's not seeking ACCEPTANCE; it's seeking DOMINATION'.
Ukraine or Russia?
Israel or Palestine?
The Science or the Cookers?
Transgender acceptance or bigotry?
Those who bully you into declaring allegiance for 'their side' are not seeking acceptance, tolerance or equality. They are seeking domination of their view over yours.
Beware and resist those who demand fealty to their dogma.

Ps Braam Botha - The End of the World: Ethics, Ego and Conflict
With so much of our world in seeming flux, decay and upheaval, it is becoming popular to ask if we are witnessing the death of the world we always knew.
Why do our cultures and institutions pursue relentless 'change' with such zeal? Why are we redefining language and logic to support subjective views?
Are we destined for a societal train wreck?
Senior Pastor of Berwick Church of Christ, Braam Botha, discusses ethics, homosexuality, egoism, utilitarianism, government, conflict and morality in this 90 min interview.
This episode is for you if you're interested in a perspective that takes aim at the aggrandisement of 'SELF' and calls for a radical departure from the momentum of popular culture.

Aussie Icon Ray Martin on the Indigenous Voice to Parliament Referendum
Aussie icon and legend, Ray Martin, drops some truths about The Voice: 'If you're a dinosaur or a dickhead who can't be bothered reading then vote No...the details simply don't matter. They never did matter, honestly. They're irrelevant...the details will change, inevitably, according to the needs and the priorities and the policies that are meant to close that bloody gap'.
Thank you Ray for your boldness. #thevoice #VoiceToParliament #VoiceReferendum
--------------
Full transcript of clip:
‘If you don’t know, find out what you don't know’. What that asinine slogan is saying is if you're a dinosaur or a dickhead who can't be bothered reading then vote No.
The words to the referendum could not be simpler than they are.
The No vote organisers also keep asking Albo for ‘the details’. ‘What about the details?’.
At this stage of the game the details simply don't matter. They never did matter, honestly. They’re irrelevant.
Over the next 10 or 20 or 30 years, no matter who's in government, the details will change, inevitably.
As will the members of the Voice delegation from [a]round Australia...according to the needs and the priorities and the policies that are meant to close that bloody gap.

Goodbye Wrap Up to Daniel Andrews
I was invited to appear on my friend's show for an off the cuff discussion on the Daniel Andrews pandemic years.
Here is my segment. I'll prepare better next time so my points are clearer but my observation is that two sides are arguing past each other and not showing any empathy at all for the other side and their concerns, and that overall most people aren't politically engaged, and Daniel Andrews was fantastic at cutting through and spinning a simple idea that won them over without requiring them to think deeply.
