Todays show was all about corruption and why it happens. What the FIFA corruption scandal is uncovering is not dissimilar to a Shakespearean play - almost unbelievable in its' twists and turns and its highlighting of the darker side of human nature and behaviour. All the links that I speak about in the segment are below.

I also cover the Sydney Film Festival and the proposed council mergers between Hornsby and Ku-ring-gai councils.


As always - keep in touch and let me know any suggestions for shows you have or if you would like to come on and be a guest.

I was invited to the Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Youth Forum 2015 last week, a one day forum on mental health which was hosted by the Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Youth Network which is now in its 4th year. This year's event was facilitated by a company called Batyr. 

3 of the participants were my guests today...Jacob, Anshul and Rohit. They were amazing and it was great to see what they got out of the day as well as listening to the pearls of wisdom they shared during the show. 

At the start of the forum the participants were asked to speak to their neighbours about mental health and the words used around it. When asked how many thought the words used during their discussion around mental health were positive - 3 people in the whole room put their hands up. The stigma around mental health is huge....more on that a little later.

Today I had 3 great local guests in the studio. Olivia H, Rosie and Olivia W. They each brought with them great experiences of getting involved in local events - and give us some great insights into Nippers, surf lifesaving as well as being our tip top reviewers for the week.
