A new meme is bringing a surprising amount of hope to online spaces: the âIndomitable Human Spiritâ. It's unashamedly optimistic and feels like it's from a more naive Internet era (it literally has a 2008 Coldplay song trending again). But most importantly, it couldn't be a more crucial meme for the moment the world finds itself in right now.

Yet another take on the latest HR concept of 'quiet quitting': Why are most of the proponents of the trend white? Financial and cultural factors mean that not everyone who tries to act their wage will be perceived the same way. The pursuit of work-life balance, which relies on a level of financial comfort (and confidence you could easily find a new job if fired) that makes it an uphill battle for women of colour. And the stats back that up.

House music when the recession is nasty? Longer hemlines when the markets crash? Pop culture trends are deeply connected to economic conditions â both how artists create, and how we the people consume. We looked back at recessions past (and asked a few insiders) to make predictions about the major trends in music, fashion, movies, TV and books that could come with a 2022-2023 global crash.

The revelation that Morrison secretly made himself co-Minister for Health in March 2020 was not a scoop published in a typical news article. Itâs actually a nugget of information in a book, Plagued, written by Simon Benson and Geoff Chambers, senior political journalists for The Australian. Which begs the question: When did Benson and Chambers find out about the secret, and how long did they wait to tell us?

Kevin Rudd swung for the fences, calling for a royal commission into Australian ownership concentration and the outsize influence of Rupert Murdoch. While his petition already has over 220,000 signatures, it doesn't answer some of the pressing questions: How big is the media ownership problem in this country, and is it even fixable?
Crystal explains the petition, the commission, and the laws, and the only outcome that seems likely...

SOLO EPISOE: This episode is a mental reset. Crystal explores the idea of two competing groups both holding equally true arguments, and whether refusing to acknowledging when others are 'right' is ultimately what is holding all of us back from progress.
Are we really trying to make the world better, or are we just in it to see our side 'win'?
