30 DEC 2021 · It’s Day 12 of Riskmas and – also the final episode of the Risktory Podcast. Today, a story that feels as real today as it did back then. Cathy Freeman, the great Australian runner, winning gold at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. A great tale that proves you don’t need the best of everything, to be the best.

29 DEC 2021 · Welcome to Day 11 of Riskmas. Today, let’s talk about the great musician, Miss Tammy Wynette. If Dolly is the Queen, Tammy was – and still is – the first lady of country. She broke all the ceilings, laying the groundwork for every female country singer coming after her.

28 DEC 2021 · It is Day 10 of Riskmas and, today, the song Tenterfield Saddler. When you think of the great Australian, Peter Allen, you think of – quite naturally – I still call Australia home. But for those of us of a certain vintage and/or who are fans of Peter Allen, we all know that Tenterfield Saddler is perhaps his best work.
While I still call Australia home is an expat love song, a song that exuberantly celebrates all that makes my homeland great, Tenterfield Saddler is a sadder, more poignant song that speaks to the precarious balance of life versus death. A balance that is challenged daily if you live in Australia.
Today, let’s look at Tenterfield Saddler. One of the most beautiful songs of all time, and an unintentional homage to risk management.

27 DEC 2021 · Today, it’s Part 2 of my exploration into Russian dissident: Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. On day 7, I looked at Solzhenitsyn’s life, positing the idea that Solzhenitsyn may never have gotten close to being as influential as he was, and is, were it not for the utter chaos that seemed to accompany him wherever he went.
Today, I wanted to look at the big lessons we can take from Solzhenitsyn. Lessons that I think are especially important to know, in these chaotic times.

26 DEC 2021 · When Simone Biles pulled out of the Tokyo Olympics, I was so incredibly sad. I have loved watching this underdog win everything and I was genuinely excited to see her dominate. I kinda thought. Well, what next then? I mean, who else in the US Gymnastic Team can compete with the ferocity and dominance of Biles?
Suni Lee.

23 DEC 2021 · Welcome to Day 7 of Riskmas, and Part I of two Riskmas episodes dedicated to the Russian dissident, Alexander Solzhenitsyn. Alexander Solzhenitsyn is one of the most influential philosophers to have ever lived, and his work is work that – even today – is incredibly relevant.
On Part 1 today, I look at the life of Solzhenitsyn and the extraordinary roller coaster he experienced and endured. In Part 2, I’ll explore his ideas and share with you just why Solzhenitsyn’s work will always stand the test of time.

22 DEC 2021 · It is Day 6 of the 12 Days of Riskmas. The half way point. And today, it’s a battle of the countries. The US versus Australia. What are the five big differences between the two countries, and why do those differences matter.

21 DEC 2021 · It’s Day 5 of the 12 Days of Riskmas and, today, let’s talk about COVID-19’s latest mutation: Omicron. What you should know. What you should be on the look out for. And why you should not panic.

20 DEC 2021 · Welcome to Day 4 of Riskmas, and welcome to Classic Liberalism, the lost Philosophy. I don’t tend to engage in political discussion on the podcast, but I have mentioned a few times that I am a classic liberal. And I’ve received many an email and message along the lines of ‘I never picked you for a liberal’ or ‘I thought you had more common sense than to be a liberal’ or ‘You like socialism?’
I think there is confusion about classic liberalism versus progressive liberalism, which is a very different beast. So, today, I am going to explore the six key principles of classic liberalism, and explain the key difference between classic and progressive liberalism.
