In this heartfelt episode we sit down with Sam and Priya - the proud parents of our co-host Darsh - to share their incredible migration story.

Born and educated in Sri Lanka and India, they moved to Nigeria with hopes of saving for a bright future back home. But when civil war broke out in Sri Lanka, returning was no longer an option.

As Tamils, they faced uncertainty and upheaval, ultimately making the life changing decision to migrate to Australia. Here, they found safety, opportunity, and community, raising three daughters and building a life they now cherish.

Join us as they reflect on resilience, hope, and what it means to call Australia home.

In this episode we dive deep into the fascinating world of star signs and superstition, as we have noticed, on our social media content, they seem to be making a come back.

As our Gen X and Millennial reminisce about the daily horoscope on the radio and in the newspaper, we explore whether our star sign is simply a fun label - or if it secretly influences our lives - and broaden the conversation to other beliefs that have woven their way into our psyche.

Join us as we explore what other beliefs does society hold and why these superstitions persists and what they reveal about our need for certainty in an uncertain world.

Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace, reshaping industries, jobs, and even how we think. But with this rapid growth comes a critical question - how do we ensure AI enhances our lives rather than replaces what makes us human?

In this episode, we sit down with Sami Makelainen, a technologist, humanist, and AI specialist, to explore the impact of generative AI on society. We discuss the opportunities AI presents, the ethical challenges we must navigate, and how we can take a proactive, human centred approach to this technological revolution.

Can AI be a tool for empowerment rather than disruption? How do we balance innovation with responsibility? And what skills do we need to thrive in an AI-driven world? Tune in for a thought provoking conversation that just might change the way you see the future.

In this episode we explore the age-old question that every book lover has asked themselves: "Why do we keep rereading the same books?"

Whether it's the comfort of familiar characters, the thrill of uncovering hidden layers, or simply a nostalgic escape, we are exploring what makes a story worth returning to time and time again.

Join us as we chat about the nostalgia, the emotional connections, and the surprising revelations that come with a second (or third) look at the books that have shaped us. We will share personal stories, debate the pros and cons of returning to old favourites, and ask you, our listeners, to weigh in on your own rereading rituals.

Grab your well-worn copies or charge up the kindle, settle in and let's uncover why some stories just never say goodbye.

Do you hear a voice inside your head narrating your thoughts, or is your mind just silent?

In this fascinating episode, Fiona, Luke and Darsh sit down to compare their inner worlds, only to discover that one of them is the odd one out.

Is having an inner voice a superpower or just background noise? And do we process thoughts in unexpected ways when we talk to ourselves?

Do you pour your thoughts onto paper, or does the idea of journalling feel like homework? In this episode, three generations come together to talk about their experiences (or lack thereof) with journalling.

From the classic Dear Diary entries of the past to digital note taking and voice memos, we explore how different ages approach self-reflection and memory keeping, is journalling a life changing habit or just another trend?

Tune in to hear the generational divide on putting thoughts to paper and maybe get inspired (or reassured) along the way.
