This week’s episode of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong) is a bit of a downer!
Josh and I chat about my obsession with 9/11, the death of Father Mychal Judge, and the ongoing health problems for people caught up in the toxic dust generated by the Twin Towers falling down.
We also chat about the ongoing crisis in Gaza, as well as my love for legendary 80s movie The Lost Boys.

Popcorn really is the perfect snack.
I’ve said it before and I’ll keep saying it until the last kernel has popped. It’s crunchy, comforting, and endlessly adaptable.
My love affair with popcorn started decades ago, back when I was a teenager hanging out on Australia’s Gold Coast.

The word “organic” sounds like it should already be kind to the planet and animals. But here’s the thing many don’t realise: most organic farming still uses animal products such as manure, bonemeal, and fishmeal to fertilise crops.
That means even your organic carrots might have a little more connection to animal agriculture than you’d like.
That’s where veganic growing comes in. Sometimes called stockfree or vegan organic, this method takes the animals out of the process completely. Instead of bloodmeal or manure, veganic growers use compost made from plants, cover crops, hay, clover, and other local plant materials to enrich the soil. The result is food that’s grown in harmony with nature and free from the hidden ties to animal exploitation.
If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to grow your own food in a fully plant-based way, there’s a brilliant opportunity coming up.
