Uncommon Courage
Welcome to Uncommon Courage, the podcast, where we’ll be having the conversations we need to be having as members of the human collective. We are all being called upon to step up and lead – with kindness, big hearts and unshakable courage – because right now, we have an opportunity to redress what we got wrong in the past, as well as deal with the disruptions we face today, to create a better world for all.
However, if we are completely truthful, the biggest challenge we face is believing we can do it – believing in our ability to create massive change. But everyone knows you can’t achieve anything significant without guts, determination, and of course, the courage to keep driving towards the goal, regardless of how hard the journey is!
Uncommon Courage will feature global conversations determined to contribute to creating a better future for all life on earth. Ideas, solutions, arguments and laughs - it’ll all be part of the journey. It is time for that which is uncommon to become common.

The Sh*t Show: SpaceX IPO, Peace, AI, El Niño... all happening
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
SpaceX’s IPO went off with a bang, and it could come down with a bang, but what does its success say about us as a society? The peace deal or MOU has been signed between Iran and the US, which is getting a lot of attention, but the obvious question is: will it hold and when will the ships move? We also have the G7 meeting happening in Europe (Trump “I’m the boss”), a heatwave is blasting Europe as well, and of course, El Niño (which we discussed in detail last week) is officially “in-play” according to all meteorological groups, and we still don’t know how bad it will be or what to expect – will we see 2°C warming for the first time?
Scientists are talking about the earth energy imbalance, which is the reason it’s getting hotter and not cooling down in between ENSO events, JD Vance is on a book tour, META is turning into a Gulag, Grok is fundamental to US national security, Anthropic lost Fable, and the Nerd Reich are looking at creating baby geniuses to thwart AI threats… what could possibly go wrong? Oh, and while the World Cup is capturing the world’s imagination, it appears the language of some fans is raising alarm in the US. Cheeky chappies.
Please do join us this Friday for an enlightening show. We’ll be going live Friday, 19th June 2026, kicking off at 8am UK, 9am EU, 11am UAE, 12.30pm IN, 2pm TH, 3pm SG, 5pm AEST. Streaming across various locations, and no doubt about it, we’d love your support.
The Sh*t Show is a Livestream happening every Friday, where Andrea T Edwards, Dr. David Ko, Richard Busellato and Joe Augustin, as well as special guests, discuss the world’s most pressing issues across all angles of the polycrisis, working to make sense of the extremely challenging and complex times we are all going through, plus what we can do about it. Help us move the needle so we can change the name of the show to something more genteel when (or if) it is no longer a sh*t show.
