Gardening with Gav: The Ultimate Hydrangea Guide

Australian veterinarian and VetChat founder Dr Claire Jenkins joins David to launch our brand-new weekly pet care segment, tackling a common struggle for pet owners: separation anxiety. When daily routines shift or long hours at work leave animals solo, constant companionship quickly turns into genuine distress—and it isn't always as obvious as a chewed-up sofa.

Dr Claire breaks down the subtle red-flag symptoms that separate true panic from simple boredom, how to build your pet's confidence through gradual desensitization, fun enrichment hacks to keep them distracted, and when it’s time to seek professional veterinary support.

Home Alone Heartbreak: How to Spot and Stop Separation Anxiety in Your Pets with Dr Claire Jenkins

Alison Covington AM, Founder and Managing Director of Good360 Australia, joins Dave to expose a hidden cost-of-living crisis: nearly half of all Australians—over 13 million people—have gone without the essentials needed for sport, play, and hobbies in the past 12 months.

With 1 in 5 households cutting sports participation and 19% sacrificing food, fuel, or utilities just to cover play costs, families are making brutal trade-offs. Alison breaks down how "play poverty" is driving a surge in screen time and declining mental health, and explains why redirecting $127 million worth of brand-new retail surplus sitting in warehouses straight to families in need is a smart, non-inflationary fix.
