the true story of 'the sun king' isn't widely known.
it's equal parts amazing and tragic:
amazing: unsw postgrad student helps invent the modern solar cell in sydney. takes it back to china, and becomes china's richest man.
tragic: australia fumbles another trillion dollar industry. stays an unsophisticated economy. returns to shipping rocks and selling houses.
so i made a video about it. it's the very timely story of what happens when our country can no longer build.
(plus my optimistic version of the future where we can).

A few may know I am a Wests Tigers tragic, and people are saying we may never lose again.
Which is why for my bucks, my groomsmen kitted me out in full Cowboys kit and gave me a lesson in empathy as I got mercilessly sledged on the hill at Leichhardt.
With friends like these!

This afternoon David Littleproud advised he would stand down as leader of the Nationals. I respect the decision he has made and thank him for his leadership since 2022 and his strong commitment to regional and rural Australians. David has always been a committed coalitionist who understands the importance of the partnership between the Liberals and Nationals. I know he’ll continue to serve the people of Maranoa with the same dedication. All the best to David, Amelia and their family, and I look forward to sharing another beer with him soon. 🍻

NDIS EXPOSED: Massive 52 minute investigation with @PeteZogoulas into Australia's immense disability fraud crisis. This is Minnesota on a national scale. The NDIS budget - now approaching $50 billion a year - is closing in on Australia's entire military budget, and there is so much fraud in the system that the official government regulator told the Australian Senate there are not enough judges in Australia to try all known cases of fraud. The entire Australian legal system would collapse if they tried. Up to 99% of alleged NDIS fraud goes unprosecuted. Out of over 7,000 tip-offs alleging fraud in the March quarter of 2025, just 16 cases (0.22%) were prosecuted. So alleged scammers don't even bother to hide abuse. To give you just one example: we visited a West Sydney NDIS provider operating out of the exact same address as a previous NDIS business the Australian government shut down for fraud four months ago. They were using the same accountant and THE EXACT SAME PHONE NUMBERS! When we confronted them on camera, the owners physically assaulted us, smashed $800 worth of @PeteZogoulas's equipment, and staff screamed "RETARD" at us. These people work in disability care. Very legitimate and professional disability service business. Watch the whole thing now. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

Being a doomer gives you the sugar rush of seemingly sounding smart in the moment.
Being optimistic has always had the better historical track record

@MarkDiStef easy thing to say when you have legacy media resources at your disposal.

The gang discover defamation law.
Pete Z@PeteZogoulas
The NDIS investigation/exposé has been finished for two weeks. I won’t lie, it’s incredibly frustrating not being able to release it yet. But in Australia, defamation laws are weak and allow well funded operators to drag you through the courts, even when you have evidence and facts on your side. That risk is real. Some of the entities involved receive significant government funding and have the financial resources to litigate aggressively. We’re currently working with another law firm to make sure the legal system can’t be weaponised to bankrupt @DrewPavlou and myself. I want this out just as much as you do. But we’re doing this properly. Another update very soon. It will be worth it 🙏

We're joining @wearehims to build the world's great preventative health business.
What I think separates @AndrewDudum and his team from the endless list of businesses pursuing this, is the understanding and ability to serve the average person.

Today, we’re on the fast track to becoming the leading global consumer health platform: we’ve agreed to acquire Eucalyptus, an international innovator in digital health.
We’ve spent several years investing in our international footprint because we know that the status quo in healthcare across the world still doesn’t put the individual at the center. When I met @_Timdoyle many years ago, I knew immediately that we shared a similar perspective on how to change the status quo.
Helping people feel great means tackling multiple conditions and recognizing that one size doesn’t fit all. It requires a diversified platform that can meet almost anyone where they are with care that is built for them. It’s what makes Tim and his team leaders outside the US, and it’s why we’ve made the decision to welcome them to Hims & Hers after closing. Their dedication to consumers has resulted in an incredible business with an ARR north of $450 million USD that delivered triple-digit year-over-year ARR growth every quarter last year.
Together, we’re going to push the industry to put people at the center of healthcare and help more people experience care that feels like a luxury without costing like one.
I have always known the value of what we’re building for customers at Hims & Hers isn’t restricted to borders. That’s even more true today.
