We all value different things, right?
Some people say they value money and success, others love and connection, while others still might claim to value causes such as social justice or climate action. But are the things we say we value born out by our actions? What about story -- is that something we value as a society?
As we mark the 21st anniversary of the tragic 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in New York, we can still feel the repercussions of that event rippling through the very fabric of our consciousness. With the benefit of hindsight, we can clearly see how the 9/11 story was used to usher in societal change, so why shouldn't we value story as much as those willing to use it as a weapon against us?
Can we take control of the narrative?

A companion for podcast episode "NSP042 – COVID-19 was just a story", I spoke to Andrew Roberts, a veteran Melbourne comedian of 15 years who found new purpose when the tyranny of Melbourne's COVID-19 lockdowns struck back in 2020.
Andrew was amongst the first to hit the streets in protest, and was harassed, assaulted and detained by police. He was ostracized by family, friends and much of the comedy community for his views, and banned on social media.
Despite this, Andrew continued to find humor in the situation, and believes the actions of the protesters were instrumental in winning the war against Dan Andrews and tyrannical regime.
Believe what you will about the extreme restrictions inflicted on Melbourne during the COVID-19 pandemic, Andrew's story is one of principled persistence and courage.
Let's hear him challenge the narrative. -

The COVID-19 pandemic majorly affected the entire world.
But now that the data is in, and the pandemic is seemingly in it's final phase; with the benefit of hindsight, does our global response seem proportionate? Have those of us who had doubts and questions in the midst of an purported global apocalypse been vindicated in the long term?
And do we even care anymore? Pandemic fatigue is real!
But I guess we care just enough to have one last look at it!

Quarantine shaming and mask shaming are new concepts that have risen out of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, but cancel culture in general was shaming people before it was cool.
These social pressures have rapidly become issues we have to deal with every day, especially those of us who entertain alternative views. But it wasn't always this way.
Harv sits down (virtually) with film-maker, musician and podcaster Keith "Legion" Snyder to talk about his take on this new cultural phenomenon as a self-proclaimed but non-conforming millennial.

There has been a string of news stories lately that may give one the impression the world is falling apart. But is it the world, or just the narratives unravelling?
Harv examines some of the strangeness going on in the world recently and tries to make sense of it all.

Despite most people thinking they have a pretty good one, science tells us that people are pretty bad at detecting lies. But the very fact that we care so much says something about the value of truth to your average human.
Why do we get angry when we're lied to? Does it have utility to survival, or is there something deeper going on? Could it be that information is the fundamental building block of the universe itself?
Let's get speculative!

You hear all sorts of stories regarding the shady dealings of the music industry -- not least of all the idea that artist must "sell their soul" for success.
But what does this actually mean? Is it just a metaphor for giving up creative freedom, or are there more nefarious responsibilities associated with a record contract.

On previous episodes we've talked about narrative therapy and telling stories through character.
This episode we investigate the intersection of these two ideas. Can identifying personas as characters improve mental health? Rod Evans, turntablist, music producer and the other half of Angus McAlpine's rap duo "Broken Aesthetiks", joins us to share his story.
Because, apparently character-based therapy is already a thing! -

Indeed, with the Jeffrey Epstein suicide (or was he #suicided), the question of "fairness" and "justice" have been on everybody's mind.

In this 30th episode of Narratively Speaking, we travel from the cramped interior of an office elevator to the infinite expanse of the entire universe as we revise some of the through-lines we've followed since the podcast began. We cover free will & determinism, the scale of human perspective, and discuss the possibility that our consciousness is a filter for the stuff of the universe.

Not particularly notable as a Hollywood superstar, Brand burst into the mainstream media pushing political a message of revolution and political non-compliance. The establishment weren't quite sure what to make of him.

Today we talk to Joel Pearse; mental health support provider, rapper and aspiring comedian, who, unbeknownst to him, was actually a major catalyst for the creation of this podcast.
We discuss, among other things, his experiences working as a mental health support provider at a youth center, and how he applied the practice of Narrative Therapy to help troubled kids re-write the own stories they told themselves.
And you'll never guess one of the influences that convinced him to explore this line of treatment... -
Today I have a discussion with Alex Snarsky, an old friend whom I hadn't seen for 13 years but happened to bump into while shopping for audio cables at the HiFi store he worked at. We started talking and found we had both developed interests in consciousness, meditation and Ayahuasca over the 13 years we had been apart.
The rub? It was Alex's last day at the store. If I had gone a day later, we would never have crossed paths.
Here's Alex's story of heartbreak, discovery and synchronicity.

It's often tempting to assume that the worst part of trauma is the tangible, physical experience.
But the core element of any trauma that stays with the victim throughout his or her lifetime is the memory of the event, more than the physical scars inflicted.
It's the story of the trauma that continues to affect human consciousness, long after the physical wounds have healed. So, is it really fair to diminish the effects of purely emotional trauma, or are these the issues that we need the most help with?
