Former CIA agent reveals spy secrets

Former CIA agent Mike Baker shares critical lessons from his espionage career, including the importance of observational skills, defining clear missions, thorough research of operating environments, and making quick decisions with incomplete information. Baker discusses how CIA training techniques, such as memory exercises with objects on trays, develop crucial skills that apply equally to intelligence work and business entrepreneurship. His book 'Company Rules' translates these espionage principles into practical advice for everyday situations. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

Circus school teaches seniors how to fall safely

Adelaide's Fearless Academy teaches older Australians circus-based movement skills, including parkour-style rolling techniques, to help them safely navigate falls and prevent injuries. Founded by trapeze artist Jon O'Drack, who survived a serious motorbike accident using his acrobatic training, the programme builds strength and confidence in seniors through structured circus exercises. AusActive, Australia's peak body for exercise and active health, is advocating for increased government support for such programmes as the country's ageing population grows.

What happens when you miss a mortgage payment

Rising interest rates and living costs are forcing Australian mortgage holders to struggle with repayments, with many facing potential default. Banks typically allow several days for missed direct debit attempts before imposing late fees, and 14 days before reporting to credit files, though they prefer to work with borrowers rather than repossess homes. Financial experts recommend requesting rate reductions before entering hardship arrangements, building payment buffers, and seeking professional advice rather than resorting to credit cards or superannuation withdrawals.

Metal detectors proposed for Australian schools after stabbings

Two alleged stabbings at Queensland schools within days have prompted calls for metal detectors to be installed in Australian schools. A 17-year-old boy was hospitalised in life-threatening condition after an alleged stabbing at a Brisbane school, following another alleged stabbing incident at a Cairns high school involving a 15-year-old. Former school principal Tracey Tully advocates for metal detectors as a preventative safety measure, arguing that weapons are easily accessed and incidents involving weapons at schools have increased in recent years.
