How many more Christmases do you have left? How many more Grand Finals? Based on the average life expectancy data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, I’ve got about 11 left. That’s pretty confronting, isn’t it? But that’s exactly what Project 100 is all about, facing the reality of getting older and figuring out how we can make the most of the time we have. Be sure to check out my Project 100 episodes I recorded this year on a multitude of topics on how and longevity.

“We do dumb things, and I find that very frustrating” Comment “budget” and I will send you a link to the full episode. Chris Richardson is one of Australia’s most quoted economists and the founder of Rich Insight, bringing decades of expertise from his time at Deloitte Access Economics to decode complex fiscal policy. Chris and I might not agree on every aspect of this budget, but that is what makes this conversation worth having. In this analysis of Australia’s latest budget, Richardson reveals why our living standards have barely grown over the past decade while other OECD nations have surged ahead by 17%. He dissects the real economic effects of the budget on inflation, interest rates, and the Reserve Bank’s delicate balancing act. Richardson also exposes the “off-budget” spending that keeps billions in government expenditure hidden from public scrutiny and explains why housing affordability will not be solved by capital gains tax changes alone.

How do we make Australia more prosperous? How do we encourage people to build businesses, take risks and compete with the rest of the world? Our politicians and government are spending the money that comes from our work, our risk and our effort. So we should demand more from them. More innovation. More ambition. More bold decisions. As Australians, we should expect to have one of the highest standards of living in the world. Let’s demand this from the people who lead us.

“You will remember the feeling if you don’t get up there and give it a go” Comment “Perry”, and I will send you a link to the full episode. For more clips, follow @straight.talk_podcast Ellyse Perry is arguably Australia’s greatest dual-sport athlete, the only person to have represented Australia in both cricket and football at an international level. In this conversation, she reveals the mental framework behind scoring a Test double century, why she finds deeper meaning in team sport than individual achievement, and how a competitive childhood on Sydney’s North Shore set the foundation for everything that followed. Perry also discusses the evolution of her training across two decades at the top, the growth of women’s cricket, and the almost meditative headspace she finds batting in the nets - a window into how one of Australia’s most enduring athletes thinks about performance, longevity, and what the game gives back.

The budget matters is crucial when it comes to inflation. And tonight, it’s front and centre. Stephen Koukoulas and Mark Bouris unpack why interest rates alone can’t do all the heavy lifting, and how government spending and taxation decisions play a role in what happens next.
