Fridays with The Doc - Dr Ross Walker - 6 February 2026

In an era of AI and "bring your own device" classrooms, 1.4 million young Australians are heading back to school without a computer at home.

This evening, we sit down with Carolin McDaid, CEO of WorkVentures, to discuss a startling surge in the digital divide. While the rest of the country moves toward a high-tech future, nearly 23% of our youth are being left behind—some forced to do entire assignments on a smartphone.

The Digital Gap: 1.4 Million Aussie Kids Left in the Dark

Australia is in the middle of a cat surge, with an estimated 1.5 million more pet cats in our homes since the start of the pandemic. But as the world returns to "normal," our feline friends are facing a mental health crisis of their own.

In this insightful episode, Sydney veterinarian Dr. Tanya Phillips joins the show to discuss the hidden side of the pandemic pet boom. From the subtle signs of "separation anxiety" in cats like over-grooming and bald patches to the national push for mandatory cat containment laws, Dr. Phillips explains why our cats' mental well-being is more tied to our presence than we ever realized.
