    JP's Ponderings - Should under 14s be allowed on social media?

    With nine and ten year-old daughters in my life, I am faced with the dilemma of whether I should allow my kids to join the world of social media. As someone with a somewhat substantial social media following, most people think I'd be all for it - but you'd be surprised what my stance is on it.

    Jp's Ponderings - Why Product innovation is critical to supermarket success

    Jp's Ponderings - Why Product innovation is critical to supermarket success

    How do you keep people interested in your brand?

    In the supermarket game, new product development, or NPD, is critical. Customers want to see new things and try new flavours when they come into our stores; sometimes, it’s as simple as seeing their name on a bottle of Coke. But as the Cost of Living crisis hits a crescendo, what will happen to those brands that are pulling back on NPD spend? I ponder over this in this weeks’ podcast.

    Jp's Ponderings - Is working from home the new world order?

    Is the great hangover from the great pandemic of 2020 the loss of culture in the office? With 37% of Australians working from home regularly, how can a business build its culture over the digital screen? I ponder over this in this weeks' epsiode of Jp's Ponderings.

    JP's Ponderings - Are we going too far with Censorship?

    JP's Ponderings - Are we going too far with Censorship?

    At the height of the pandemic, I recorded a podcast with Dr Nikolai Petrovsky, a globally-renowned researcher in the field of immunology, endocrinology and vaccine development. He was also the only Australian to have an approved COVID vaccine on the market - and yet, despite his absolute expertise on the subject, YouTube decided to pull my podcast down for "misinformation."

    Someone was sitting in an office, making decisions on what people could or could not learn about what was happening around the world.

    We were being censored. Fast forward to 2024, and the Government is in a legal stoush with Twitter to remove footage of a recent attack in Sydney. Which begs the question - when does Censorship go too far? And who SHOULD have the ultimate say in what gets censored? I ponder over this in this weeks' episode of JP's Ponderings.

Professor Nikolai Petrovsky…The real deal!

I recently listened to this podcast and have actually downloaded it as an mp3. This man is super smart, knowledgeable and has the background in vaccines to support what he is saying. Personally, I would trust him above my own doctor and have been following his online interviews for some time now. It’s appalling that our government is ignoring him in favour of Big Pharma and I really hope they are forced to suck eggs when it becomes apparent his vaccine is far superior to the others already available. As for YouTube removing the video, we all know the reason behind that.
Everyone should take the time to listen to this podcast. Best wishes Professor.

The Petrovsky

First listen and only ever to one podcast. It’s a shame you can’t review episodes. Anyhow, this relates to the Petrovsky one that you tube removed. Good on you and also Drakes for their stance on the mandates. The only small critique is there was no discussion at all about treatments and / or how dangerous the virus is compared with influenza.

Nikolai Petrovsky so is a MUST LISTEN

This ep is absolutely great, so much information. What a scientist! What a great Human. Keep up the good work Dr Petrovsky 💪🏼❤️ If you want informed science and a huge amount of info on how decisions are made in gov regarding covid, vaccinations, mandates, funding and development of vaccines and all the bits in between this is a goldmine of a podcast.
