News from around the globe today!
My guest today is Sarah Cloutier chats with me about news and how we consume and brings a welcomed solidness to the conversation. Sarah's passion is food and how her relationship with food has changed as she has learnt to listen to how food feels in her body. Sarah has a great recipe website called Healthy Cooking for Beginners and shares the affect different foods can have on our physiology. I have linked it below. Sarah, like my other guests on the show in the past, is a guest who shares from her lived experience. Sarah has spent years taking time to understand how her body feels when she eats different foods. This blog is the result of years of discovering. |

News from around the world....
One of his requests from all of us was to understand the importance of choosing to be aware of what happens in different countries around the world. See the copy of Peter Greste at the Press Club and a copy of the video through this article...see link here
Rainbows took over the world - from Sydney stunners which melted down Instagram and made international news to the landmark supreme court case on same sex marriage that changed Facebook with very colourful DPs.

Worth checking out a couple of good comedy moments...on politics and guns...not that there i anything funny about the abuse of guns but the illogical defence...you either laugh and make sure others know about it or you despair.
- John Oliver and Last Week Tonight on Tony Abbott
- John Oliver on gun control from his segment on the Daily Show. I loved his logical approach. This is actually a 3 part segment...fell free to find the other parts on YouTube from the 1st link above. Apparently it is political suicide in the US to back gun control....mmm. Loved that the Howard Government passed their law within 3 months.
- Jim Jeffries on gun control - Jim just breaks down the arguments one by one to show the illogical approach by the US..Bad language warning!!
The fundamental search for love. Bringing news back to being about the people and for the people. The responsibility to not sensationalise people's stories but to present them so we engage so we have understanding. This was a much longer section but there was no space today...another week!
