As global tensions and conflict in the Middle East threaten the flow of oil into Australia, the warning signs are flashing. While we aren't out of fuel yet, regional towns are already seeing shortages, prices at the bowser are climbing, and supply is at risk of running low. So, how much do we really have left, and why is our 'just-in-time' delivery system so vulnerable to international shocks?  Today, we're joined by the NRMA's Peter Khoury to explain where our fuel actually comes from and how many days of reserves we have left.  Plus, consumer behaviour expert Dr Paul Harrison joins us to discuss the psychology of panic buying and how this shortage will eventually hit your grocery bill and your commute. 🗞️ HEADLINES MAFS expert Mel Schilling has passed away aged 54 Israel says they plan to occupy a large area of southern Lebanon Miley Cyrus has posed alongside her Hannah Montana co-stars at the 20th anniversary special launch Mysterious posters around Paris are fuelling rumours of a Celine Dion come back  📩 GET IN TOUCH Got a story, news tip-off, feedback or dilemma?

When you hear the word 'cult', you probably picture white robes and remote compounds. But in 2026, the reality is much more ordinary. From wellness communities to 'coaching' gurus and high-control religious groups, a new wave of organisations is recruiting young people who are searching for certainty in an unstable, post-pandemic world. As the Victorian Parliament conducts a landmark inquiry into the recruitment methods of these fringe groups, we investigate how the traditional cult has morphed into something far more sanitised and harder to spot. 🗞️ HEADLINES Public schools in Victoria & Tasmania impacted by teacher's strikes today Trump says deal with Iran coming soon to settle the war The pilots of an Air Canada flight have died in a crash with a fire truck at NY's La Guardia airport Sarah Ferguson denies she planned to clone the Queen's corgis  📩 GET IN TOUCH Got a story, news tip-off, feedback or dilemma?

What happens when you need a gap year from real life? When you’ve worked hard, climbed the corporate ladder and saved every penny to buy your first apartment in the big city, only to find yourself in a trap? Tim Abbott was living the quintessential city life. By 28, he had cracked the Sydney property market, secured a stable corporate career, and built a thriving side hustle making memes for over 100,000 Instagram followers. But behind the scenes, a shocking $11,500 quarterly strata bill and the crushing weight of the cost-of-living crisis brought him to breaking point. Tim realised he was "cosplaying adulthood" in a life he couldn't afford and didn't enjoy. So, he engineered what he calls a "Financial Gap Year." In this episode of Pivot Club, Sarah Davidson speaks with Tim about his decision to trade his laptop for a tractor. Tim explains how he quit his job in digital marketing, rented out his apartment, and moved to a rural farm in Queensland to work on a timber plantation. Now, living in a caravan and cutting his expenses by 90%, he is on a mission to regain his financial freedom with a massive goal in mind: To save $100,000 in just 12 months. We unpack the "ego death" of leaving a "cool" city identity for high-vis and manual labour, the unexpected joy found in a simple existence, and how to tell the difference between what society wants for you and what you actually want for yourself. Join us for an honest and hilarious conversation about taking back control of your own timeline. Check out more from Pivot Club here THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson?
