100 Not Out

On this episode we discuss whether we have become so used to saying “where’s the research” or “the evidence” that we’ve lost the art of independent thinking. We discuss the importance of all factors of life containing an art, a science and a philosophy – and that no one is more important than the other. With science threatening to overtake the conversation many of us are defaulting to this “depend...

After eight years of 100 Not out, one could argue we’ve covered all we need to on the subject of gracefully ageing. But we feel like we’re only just beginning. The question that so often nags us and keeps us keeping on is the conundrum that some people improve their lives and others don’t. Why do many diabetics continue to consume sugar? Why do many smokers continue to smoke despite grave warnings...

Marcus as a journalist and then a chiropractic business owner and then on...

Given that we aren’t allowed to leave the country, it seems to us that Australians are falling in love with the country again. With a boom in domestic travel and a currently great COVID position, many of us are travelling to local destinations we have previously never heard of or thought we’d never get to. It’s no longer Bali, New Zealand, Paris, Rome or New York. Now it’s Sydney, Brisbane and any...
