#1985 Are EV'S Worth It? - Patrick Bonello

In this episode, Tiff, Patrick and I talk about the f**kery that's afoot with the government making electric vehicles not such an attractive proposition and moving the goalposts a little. We discuss the downside and danger of social media 'vigilantes', the impending social media ban for kids under sixteen (what sh*t storm?), why you might need to cut back on sending your nudie pics, Meta scanning your personal photos, electric Porsches with fake engine sounds, why you shouldn't rush to an Al medical diagnosis, a three-minute test to detect Alzheimer's Disease, which Chinese brand just overtook Tesla, and lots more.

#1984 Tim & I Are Sh*T Employees - Tim Jack Adams

Tim Jack Adams' parents couldn't settle on a first name, so they gave him three. Alright, I'll stop. Sorry Tim. And in other news... we actually had a great chat about finding our career path and purpose, exploiting our potential, why we were both sh*t employees, Tim's winding path into supporting and empowering Aussies on their wellness journey, escaping the urban jungle and healing in nature, his new book - 'Energised' - available in all good book stores and a few sh*t ones, and lots more. You know those dudes that you just 'believe' because there's no 'show'.. that's Tim. You'll like him.timjackadams.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1983 'Um' - The Conversational Spakfilla - Pete Shepherd

In this instalment of TYP, Pete Shepherd, Tiff and the Problem Child talk about Seth Godin's Purple Cow concept (what it is and why it matters), the 'um' epidemic (the Spakfilla of conversation), how crazy-fast little kids learn (Pete has a two-year-old), knowing when and how to change the direction and energy of a conversation (or presentation) which is dying a painful death, building interpersonal connection with story, metaphor and humour, learning styles, and how to create rapport with an audience in under a minute.

#1982 Dr. Cam's Dark Alley - Dr. Cam McDonald

This was an interesting and fun chat with Dr. Cam and Tiff, where we explored the concept of learning in safe and unsafe spaces, exercise induced orgasms (they're a thing), the risk of giving only positive feedback, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, kids giving 'feedback' to their parents (would it work?), the changing landscape and culture of education, why Dr. Cam did this interview in some dodgy dark alley, and plenty more.

#1981 "But Did You Die?" - Dr. Rebecca Heiss

When we're in the middle of stress, anxiety, pressure and all the mental and emotional mayhem that comes with it, sometimes it feels like we re going to die. But according to Dr. Rebecca Heiss, we can actually use stress and fear to improve our lives. We can build a different relationship with it and use it as a positive, a tool for change and even, as a teacher. In her new book, 'SPRINGBOARD: Transform Stress to Work For You', the self-proclaimed "PR agent for stress" challenges conventional wisdom: to frame stress, not as an enemy, but as a co-creator for a meaningful life. This was fun, as was Rebecca. Enjoy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1980 The Show That God Hijacked - Harps & Tiff

This was perhaps the deepest I've ever gone, and the most vulnerable l've ever been in twenty-plus years of broadcasting on radio, TV and of course, podcasts. It's not a sale's pitch for God or religion - so panic not - but it is a conversation that I believe asks and explores some really big questions, ideas, and issues. I think this will be some people's favourite episode, some will find it mildly interesting, and some will turn off five minutes in. Enjoy. Or don't.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1979 Dear Kate Weaver - Harps & Tiff

Dear Kate Weaver, hi (waving emoji), it's Harps from The You Project. So, last week I did an episode about exercise and you messaged me via our TYP Facebook page. You quite rightly pointed out that I typically aim those (training-type) episodes more towards beginners. With that in mind, you asked if I could record something for people with a few more miles on the training clock. That is, people who are more advanced. The answer is, f*ck yes and here it is. I hope you get something out of it...  Best, Harps.  *Note: If the rest of you want to listen, I guess Kate will be okay with that. Probably.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1978 Choose Your Hard - Dr Sam Casey

Dr Sam and Tiff joined me for another dive into the human experience in all its wonder and weirdness, and we spoke about the increasing prevalence of burnout and what we might do about it. We also discussed 'choosing your hard', the weird social credits that (seem) to come with proudly wearing the 'busy badge', the idea of things - other than food - having a 'use-by-date' (like careers, relationships, habits, workouts), and we also discussed the PH360 Health Types, their individual characteristics, understanding 'how we work' and what might be the best operating system for us as individuals.

#1977 The 4WD of Humans - David Gillespie

In this episode, Gillespo describes boys and men as the four-wheel drive (4WD) version of humans. It was kind of an insult-compliment combo. It'll make sense when you listen. This was a comfortable and very informal ramble but I think you'll enjoy it. Among others things, we spoke about similarities and dissimilarities between the males and females of the species as they move from childhood to adolescence - looking through a biological, cognitive, cultural, social, and behavioural lens.

#1976 Exercise: How Much, How Hard, How Often? - Harps

For some of you who are reasonably advanced with your training, knowledge and results, this episode might not be for you. Having said that, I think there's something in here for anyone at any level - even if it's as a reminder, reinforcement or perhaps to consider something familiar through a different lens. The language is non-jargon-y, beginner-friendly and there's only a light smattering of f**ks. You're welcome.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
