Caspar speaks with online entrpreneur Jaryd Krause about how he quit plumbing and started buying online businesses.

Caspar speaks with 29 year old Young Workers Centre Director Felicity Sowerbutts about the successful campaign to make Wage Theft a crime. After growing up in the UK and moving to Australia as a young politics graduate, Felicity worked retail jobs, internships and slugged away until finding herself working with the Victorian Trades Hall Council just as they created a dedicated legal service and hotline for youth workers - The Young Workers Centre. After initial surveys found rampant underpayments and seeing that there was no proper punishment for willfully underpaying or denying minimum entitlements to workers, the Young Workers Centre renamed underpayment "Wage Theft" and successfully campaigned for it to become a crime in the state of Victoria. Aside from discussing this remarkable campaign, Caspar and Felicity discussed the plight of young workers in the covid-era, the ways young workers can address issues in their workplace and the importance in empowering people to transform their lives.

Caspar speaks with our legal and Melbourne political correspondent Chris Orchard about the second wave of coronavirus enveloping Melbourne, life under lockdown, and how the government suppression strategy is likely to pan out.

In this episode, we bring you Caspar's conversation with 29 year old Refugee Research and Policy Analyst Dr Jaz Dawson.

Come binge thinking with 28 year old criminal defence lawyer Nikhil Sood as he shares growing up in New Zealand with an Indian background, failing at school before finding his direction, working at the United Nations during the trump era, and how he landed in criminal law defending vioent criminals.

Come binge thinking as Caspar speaks to 26 year old buyers agent, small business owner and property investor Gabi Billing. This isn't a story about a silver spoon fortune. Like many listeners, Gabi worked as a creative - a musician, dancer and visual artist. But after spontaneously deciding to buy an apartment off the plan with her partner Goose, she realised they’d made every classic property mistake in the book!

After some soul searching and a lot of learning, Goose and Gabi founded the youth-focused buyers agent Dashdot, which helps people avoid the very mistakes they made and advocates for buyers throughout the process of purchasing a property.

Rest assured that as always, we went binge thinking deep on this one. Gabi and Caspar discuss her life growing up in regional Victoria, how she met Goose and why they ended up buying that apartment. Gabi reflects on the property narrative among young people, the foundations of Dashdot, the types of “cashflow-positive” property they identify for people, how much money you need to do this, the logic behind paying for a buyers agent, whether it's moral to want to build your wealth, living a balanced life beyond the financial, the prevalence of pessimism, the old boys culture of real estate, and 'The Investor Lab' community that Gabi and Goose are building.
