We're talking about earnings season - which feels like it never stops! Big tech keeps on growing, which is interesting to dig into off the back of our interview with Cory Doctorow. Then Producer Sascha joins us to chat about some mystery stocks that appeared in her portfolio, and we're asking whether Bryce should go fixed or variable with his brand new home loan (which is causing a bit of trouble to *actually* sign off on).

Expert: Aidan Geysen - 4 key criteria for choosing the right super fund | Vanguard Super Retirement Series

According to a Vanguard study, 1 in 2 working-age Australians have either not made contact in the last 12 months or indeed never made contact at all with their superannuation (this includes just visiting the fund’s website!). This is a big problem, given how important it is to engage with your super as early as possible.
In this episode we break down the reasons why you should not be ignoring your super.
In today’s episode we cover: Why super is more than a financial product; it’s a means to achieve choice and comfort in retirementThe substantial tax advantages of superHow too many Aussies aren’t engaged with their super and what you can do to change itWhy super is the foundation of retirement, and the income required to live comfortably

Uncovered is our series where we take a closer look at some of the Aussie companies that get less analyst coverage and media attention. And today’s episode is a cracker. 
When it comes to strokes, there is a saying: time is brain. 
During a stroke, blood vessels are blocked and blood carrying essential oxygen cannot make it to brain cells. This lack of oxygen kills 1.9 million brain cells every minute. Sadly, globally, only 35% of patients suffering from an acute stroke arrive at hospital in the critical 4.5 hour window for treatment. As such, stroke researchers around the world are focused on shortening the time to treatment. 
Argenica Therapeutics are approaching this problem slightly differently. Rather than trying to get the patient to hospital within the 4.5 hour window, they’ve asked: how can we widen that 4.5 hour window?
To better understand their work, today we speak to Argenica Therapeutics CEO and Managing Director, Dr Liz Dallimore.
