The Charles Kovess Show

It's New Year's Eve 2023.  Many people love making New Year Resolutions. New Year Resolutions can be very effective and very powerful, and the New Year commencement might just be the turning point that galvanizes you in the ways that you want.  But what are those ways?  How and what do you want to change?  The depth of your self-awareness enables you to identify the answers to those key...

Today, in honour of the season, I am wearing my Merry Christmas hat by way of a change!  This episode is going to be particularly short. I didn't want to burden you down with too much material; I didn't want to give you too many tools.  I'm going to share a number of DULL ideas with you that I think will set you up for 2024 whilst having a wonderful Christmas.  DULL stands for: Disc...

In this Episode, my big idea is to help you to identify your Worthy Ideal. You want to be successful. You want to be happy. I want to be successful. I want to be happy.  Will I be happy if I'm successful? Or will I be a success if I'm happy? It's quite circular, isn't it? If you're a success, will you be happy? Or, if you are happy, is that being successful?  Do some think...

In this episode, I share the two keys to successfully changing your behaviour. Most of us want to change something. Most of us wish we could change something.  Most of us wish to change many things.  We are acutely conscious of our failings; we want to lose weight, we want to get fitter, we want to be more disciplined, we want to be healthier, we want to earn more money, we want to be more loving,...

 Today's big idea is to share with you the value of executive, personal and business coaching.   And to provoke you to consider the next steps in your learning and growing journey.  I will show you why a 1% shift in your behaviour can sometimes double the results you are seeking in your life.  I have been an executive coach for over 30 years.  And I have crafted the unique process that I use...

In today's episode, I warn about the dangers to each nation's culture of the passionate activists driving the woke agenda.  The woke agenda is an unacceptable, fraudulent and I say evil plan to destroy Western culture.  I oppose it.  In my experience many people oppose it.  But most people are comfortable in the status quo and so they say nothing. They don't fight back against the w...

In today's Episode, I share my love of our planet, and at the same time assure you that there is no climate emergency! However, there is a massive fear-spreading exercise going on amongst the population, that is particularly focused on children.  I want you to understand what a fraud this claim of climate emergency is, and the basis on which I claim this. This topic is inspired by a school st...

 In today's episode, I explore the question of 'truth'. The Bible, in the New Testament, in the book of John, says "the truth shall set you free".  What does this really mean?  And, what is true in any event for you?  That's where your self-awareness plays such a crucial role.  What is the truth about what you uniquely want for your life?  I discuss five common situat...

In this week's episode, I discuss the recent visit to Melbourne, Australia of the President of Hungary, Katalin Novák.  I met Katalin at an event in Melbourne on Sunday, 22 October, to commemorate the commencement of the Hungarian Uprising against Russia on October 23, 1956.  There was a huge crowd of local Hungarians present on this day. The President spoke powerfully and inspirationally abo...

Today's episode is inspired by my interview of Dr Ben Sessa, Psychiatrist and psychedelic drugs expert from Bristol UK on TNT radio on 20 October, where I have my weekly show. You can listen to a replay of that interview HERE . The key message to be excited about is that you don't have to be stuck with sh*tty, or debilitating, or suicidal, or anxious thoughts.  You don't have to be...

Today's episode is inspired by Australia's massively failed Referendum. As a consequence of that Referendum, many labels have been thrown at people and are now being thrown at people.  Plenty of negative labels are being attached to others because of the way that they voted in the Referendum or thought about voting in the Referendum.  What do you do when someone calls you names, or attac...

In this week's episode, I invite you to consider whether you believe what your doctors are saying to you.  Are they lying to you?  I share nine reasons, out of many more possible reasons, why your 100% faith in what your doctors tell you is not a good decision.  I say you need to, and you must, take personal responsibility for your health and the health of your family in committed, passionate...

In this episode, I share with you nine lessons for success that I observed and discerned from Collingwood's journey to success in yesterday's Grand Final win in the Australian Football League Premiership.  It was an extraordinary game.  It was a very close game, the final margin being four points.  It was a hard game.  Two great teams, Collingwood and Brisbane, competing at the highest l...

In this episode, I share insights on the powerful glue that can unite humanity in resisting attacks on our freedoms and attacks on those who seek truth.  This episode is inspired by the extraordinary front page of The Australian newspaper on Saturday September 23 announcing the pending retirement of Rupert Murdoch as chairman of News Corporation.  That headline, under a big picture of Rupert Murdo...

In this episode, I explain why love expands you and fear depresses you.  If you suffer from depression, it is likely that you have allowed fear to guide your actions.  But, if you seek truth and speak truth, it sets you free.  And, when you are free, you are able to grow, to get better, to expand. Overcoming fear of the truth is a crucial step to your freedom.  Overcoming fear is a crucial step to...

In this episode, I celebrate the Centenary of the birth of my Dad in Hungary in 1923 on the 9th of September. He was a man who lived life on his own terms because he had clarity of what those terms were. When you have clarity, you have power: power to achieve what you truly want. My Dad understood geopolitical issues that impacted him and his family. And he understood because he chose to educate h...

In this episode, my big idea is to celebrate Father's Day because it's Father's Day today in Australia, as I'm recording this.  I want to recognise all fathers and share some key philosophical thoughts on fatherhood.  Fatherhood is challenging. It is difficult.  Fatherhood has wonderful elements and it has crappy elements.  I share with you seven key philosophical principles th...

In this episode, I discuss the issues of who you believe, what you believe and what sources of information you can trust. The simple truth is that there are many misleading confusing and contradictory sources of information, even from allegedly reputable sources. The good news is that this has been so for centuries, all be it that we are seeing an increase at a rapidly rising rate.  The further go...

Today’s Show is different from the usual 4 step format. We will revert to that format in our next Show. This Show is inspired by my need to prepare a submission to the Victorian Government Industrial Hemp enquiry that is currently underway. I am CEO of Textile & Composite Industries. I started consulting to that company in Oct 2012, and became CEO when its founder, Adrian Clarke, died in Oct 2...

In this week's Episode, I bring to your notice the facts and the trends showing the collapse of our legal systems in many countries.  Such collapses will lead to losses of freedoms, economic collapse, and totalitarianism.  It is the legal systems in each country that protect people and protect their assets and protect their freedoms.  It is courageous, competent and honest judges and adjudica...

 In this week's Episode, I discuss children's education and the question of who is responsible for that education.  I say it's not the government's responsibility.  I say, education of children is the responsibility of the parents or the guardians of the children.  I attended the book launch of 'Your Children - Take the lead on their education' by a friend of mine, Ch...

In this week's Episode, I urge you to wake others up, if you are awake, because we have to save ourselves and our future. Governments and politicians will not save us. We cannot rely on them. They have already sold out to the 'global agenda'.  The 'global agenda' includes the goals of the United Nations, the World Economic Forum, the World Health Organization, (also called...

In this week's Episode, I want to remind you again of the crucial principle that discipline leads to freedom.  You know I'm a freedom warrior via passion, via health, via legal strategies, via industrial hemp and via freedom of speech, particularly through comedy.  If you want freedom, I say you need to adopt, review and commit to disciplines that serve you.  I give you five specific exa...

In this week's Episode, I consider the issues around climate: is there a climate emergency or not?  If there is an emergency, then steps need to be taken and I urge you to speak up.  If there is no emergency, then we need to speak up against the planned and deliberate destruction of our current lifestyles, of our current living standards.  If you don't know whether there is an emergency...

In this week's episode, I uncover the horrible costs of Government bureaucracy and unaccountable governmental behaviour.  You and I pay a huge price for the bureaucrats working in government instrumentalities, of all descriptions, who are unaccountable to their masters, namely us, and who refuse to answer our questions or our complaints or to deal properly with the problems that we, their mas...
