    Discover the hidden world of fungi under your feet

    Catherine Marciniak and Stephen Axford have spent more than a decade travelling through forests in Australia and around the world, documenting fungi through photography and time-lapse, and along the way they've helped uncover species new to science. Their work featured on David Attenborough's Planet Earth 2 and they have produced their own book and documentary. Catherine and Stephen capture some of the extraordinary time-lapse footage. Today they discuss with David Boldeman how it all started and why it matters. Planet Fungi: A Photographer's Foray by Catherine Marciniak, Stephen Axford, Tom May is published by CSIRO Publishing and is available in print or eBook. The documentary Follow the Rain is available to watch on Netflix.

    ‘Remarkable’ freshwater turtles face quiet decline

    Australia’s freshwater turtles are some of the country’s most fascinating and under-appreciated animals. They can live for decades, survive incredible injuries, help clean river systems and in some cases even breathe underwater through specialised adaptations. But despite how remarkable they are, turtle populations across Australia are quietly declining and most people do not even realise it is happening. In this first of a two-part panel episode, David Boldeman is joined by turtle experts Deb Bower, James Van Dyke, Michael Thompson and Ricky Spencer to explore why turtles are so important, the surprising biology behind how they survive, and the growing challenges they face. Part two will be published on May 26 and discusses the 1 Million Turtles project. Deb, James, Mike and Ricky co-author the book The Mystery of the Missing Turtles with Elizabeth Hale and illustrator James O'Hanlon.

    AI is reshaping businesses and customer experience but are we making intelligent decisions?

    Welcome to It Starts With... a weekly podcast series where we uncover the people behind the stories from fossils to AI, and the microscopic to the galactic.  Our host David Boldeman is joined by AI expert Jon Whittle to unpack one of the biggest and most misunderstood ideas shaping our lives today: artificial intelligence. Jon has spent more than 30 years working in AI including NASA, Data61 and Melbourne Business School. He cuts through the hype to explain why so many people are getting it wrong and what is coming next. From real-world examples like software development and everyday tools, to an electrician using ChatGPT on the job, we explore where AI is useful, what it means for how work gets done, and how it will affect you the customer. The takeaway is simple: AI isn’t replacing everything overnight, but it is reshaping how decisions get made. And understanding that starts at the beginning. Jon's book AI in Business was published in January 2026 is available to buy in print or ebook via CSIRO Publishing.
