Hunter and Taylor, my 6 year-old twin boys, join me tonight for what might become the pilot edition of their own podcast. It’s something we’ve been talking about for ages and, based on their excitement tonight after we wrapped, I think they are about ready. This is a show designed for kids aged 5 – 8. So if you aren’t one of those and don’t have one of those – you might want to give it a miss.

On tonight’s show, the boys talk about Age Of Empires, their favourite XBOX games, what they are watching, reading, playing, toys they want, as well as their thoughts on AFL, religion, business, and science.

A spontaneous Twitter lunch happened in Melbourne yesterday between myself, Nick Hodge, Garth Kidd, Robin Frousheger, and Andrew Barnett.

The lunch came together over Twitter when Nick, who is based in Sydney, mentioned he was having a coffee at a particular Melbourne Starbucks. Robin, Andrew and I all saw the message and invited ourselves to join him. And then Garth Kidd, who was also visiting Melbourne from Sydney, recognized the red sunnies in the street and I invited him to join us. Over coffee I asked each of the guys to tell me how they use Twitter, the impact it has had on their work/social/blogging lives and how they think corporate marketers should be using it.

Here are the protagonists:

Nick Hodge

Garth Kidd

Robin Frousheger

Andrew Barnett

Jack Marx wrote a popular blog called THE DAILY TRUTH for Fairfax, a large, old and very, very tired Australian media organization. In 2006 he won a very prestigious Australian media award (a Walkley) for one of his posts. However the paper sacked him a couple of days ago (on his birthday no less) for a satirical post he wrote about the Australian Federal Opposition Leader’s visit to a New York strip club. What is perhaps even worse than the sacking, according to News.com.au, the editor-in-chief of Fairfax Digital, Mike Van Niekerk, told a rival paper that “this was just the latest in a long line of indiscretions”. Jack says if this is true, it’s the first he’s heard about it. Should he sue Fairfax for defamation?

Shekhar Kapur, born 6 December 1945 in British India (in an area which became part of Pakistan) is a renowned filmmaker from India. His works include Elizabeth (1998), Bandit Queen (1994) and his new film, Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007).

He writes a very revealing blog (link) and is trying to raise $1 Billion for a new media fund for investment in Asia (link). He was recently at the X | MEDIA | LAB in Melbourne. I captured an interview he did on stage with XML founder, Brendan Harkin.

On August 10 2007 I attended the X|Media|Lab in Melbourne and had the opportunity to interview a number of the key speakers. I’ll be putting those interviews up over the next week. This first one is with Brendan Harkin, the Founder and Director of X|Media|Lab.

Brendan founded X|Media|Lab in June 2003. X|Media|Lab is the internationally acclaimed cross-disciplinary creative thinktank for digital media professionals which brings together some of the world’s outstanding creatives, executives, and power-brokers to work as mentors with local companies on their own digital media project ideas.

A few months ago I was on the phone to a friend of mine and said “The questions you ask yourself define your reality”. My friend then introduced me to the work of Dr John Demartini. A few things surprised me when I read the information on his website. The first was that he actually sounded a lot like me, so I knew he must be a good, highly intelligent guy.

The second surprise was that he was one of the people featured on “The Secret”. Now… you know what I think about that film. And there seemed to be a disconnect between the stuff I read on Demartini’s site and what I remember from the film (it’s been a year since I saw it).

Then, in a “synchronicity” moment (one of Demartini’s favourite words), Dr Peter Ellyard introduced me to author Liliane Grace (her podcast, based on her book “The Mastery Club“, will be starting on TPN soon) and who should have written the introduction to her book?? Dr John Demartini.

So I asked for an introduction, had my people call his people, and today I got to chat with him from his hotel in Seattle.

Listen to how he separates his work from the mumbo-jumbo of “The Secret” and his tips for figuring out how to get the most out of your life.

You can find out more about his books and seminars on his website (link) and you can get a free CD with more information on the “Demartini Method” by clicking on this link:

My guest today is a G’Day World listener from Paris, Bernard Malige. Bernard, who works as an engineer with Renault, helped me better understand the French system of taxation and social services. If you’ve seen Michael Moore’s latest film SICKO, you already know that in France, pretty much all health care (except high end elective procedures) is paid for by the Government out of your taxes. When I saw the film, I wasn’t sure how high the taxes were in France and Bernard offered to help out. Turns out, they are quite low. If you’re an American, you probably don’t want to listen to this show. It’ll just depress you. We also talk a little bit about the French public’s view on Iraq, the USA, Libya and Napoleon.

Bernard is now our official “European Correspondent”.

Geoffrey Bowll is the MD of Melbourne-based ad agency Starship. I chatted with him yesterday about the demise of TV, the rise of the creative class and the fragmentation of media. It was great to find someone in the Aussie advertising industry who is excited about social networking, Second Life and Twitter.
