What happens when you take the "blinkered" focus of an elite swimmer and apply it to the high-stakes world of stockbroking, fintech and entrepreneurship?

The success of Luke Trickett, ex-competitive swimmer and founder of Marmalade and Blue Stamp Company, is the answer.

Luke reveals why "satisfaction" is a foreign concept to him, the reality of transitioning from the pool to stockbroking during the GFC, what watching his world-champion wife Libby's own transition out of the pool taught him, and what it’s really like to build a business with 100% conviction while raising five children.

Are we sleepwalking into a national food crisis?

A war in the Middle East, a global shipping bottleneck, blown-up fuel and LNG plants are contributing to a global fuel crisis. But beyond fuel, it's the effect on fertiliser supply that might shock Australians if the crisis isn't solved sometime soon.

Farmer and social media star Charlie Blomfield joins Sylvia to talk about the massive geopolitical forces shifting the goalposts out in the bush. Plus, why the government’s latest headline-grabbing supply deals are just a "drop in the ocean".
