In this episode of TYP, Dr. Sam and I chat about being 'hangry' (it's a real thing!), incidental vs. structured learning, bullying, how much praise is too much (when can it become a negative?), separation anxiety, when to give kids access to social media (etc.), kids finding their identity, the pros and cons of kids in sport, kids manipulating parents and lots more. Enjoy.

Dr. Denise pulls back the curtain, destroys the mystery and tells us about the very recent arrival of her... cellulite. She's not happy. What started out as a regular TYP episode with one of the smartest minds and best science communicators in Australia, somehow transformed into something of a private coaching session (for the Doc) - complete with laughs, lightbulbs and more personal revelations, in a not-so-private setting. This was fun and I think for many listeners, there was plenty of relevant content. Enjoy.

In this episode of TYP, Gillespo and I talk about the myriad of factors and variables that influence a couple’s chances for making a baby, declining birth rates, plummeting sperm and testosterone levels and the ever-diminishing chances of becoming a parent.

Sometimes what matters most is what we can do when nobody's watching, cheering, helping or even caring. How productive and effective we can be when it's just.. us. You. Me. Having support and the occasional cheer squad is nice (of course) but some of us spend much of our lives without such gifts, without many resources and with very little external help. This is not a complaint or ploy for sympathy or pity but rather, just a statement of truth and an accurate reflection of where some people find themselves. In this episode of TYP, Bobby and I talk about this and plenty more. Enjoy.

Apart from being a ripping bloke, brilliant educator, great conversationalist, simplifier of - what can be - complex information and an anti-bullsh*tter, Simon Hill is one of the most respected voices (in the world) when it comes to the minefield that is, nutrition. In the middle of the sale's pitches, hysteria, food cults and pseudo-science, Simon is the sanity we need and this was one of my favourite TYP conversations this year. Enjoy.

Here's the conundrum... people want to be strong, resilient, capable, high-performing and successful but... at the same time, they want comfort. Convenience. Instant gratification. Reward without work. Success without pain. Don't believe me? Take a look at the ocean of 'magic pills' and quick-fixes on offer to help you and me bypass the discomfort, inconvenience and effort. It all sounds very sexy but I've never met anyone who has succeeded over the long term by being obsessed with comfort and convenience in the short term. If you don't want to be coached by me (around this topic) don't listen. If you do, giddy-up.

Dr. Cam is back, sharing how to get the most out of your grey and white matter, and offering his top strategies and protocols for keeping those neurons wiring and firing at their best. The brain is one of the most neglected parts of most people's fitness and health plans but just like your biceps, glutes, or heart, it needs to be trained to function anywhere near optimally. In my opinion, most people experience cognitive decline faster than they need to - not because of age, but because they do bugger-all to keep their brain in shape. Enjoy.

Yep, you read that title correctly. This is a very different and super interesting chat with Dr. Bill about.. well, you read the title. So many interesting factors, considerations, research options, medical possibilities and stories to come out of this woman's fascinating superpower. Enjoy. **Bill Sullivan, Ph.D., is the author of 'Pleased to Meet Me: Genes, Germs, and the Curious Forces That Make Us Who We Are'. He is an award-winning professor at the Indiana University School of Medicine, where he studies genetics and infectious disease. He's also a much-loved regular on TYP.
