Ever had a tech meltdown during a creative project? We know that feeling all too well, which is why we're jazzed to share our latest acquisition: a colossal 14 terabyte external hard drive that's revolutionizing our content creation process. Our latest chat isn't just about tech triumphs though; we're peeling back the curtain on how we shape our podcast's engaging format, from structured dialogues to off-the-cuff banter. We're even putting out a call to action for your input on the discussion styles that hit the right notes for you.

Switching gears to a more personal note, I take you through my own health journey, confronting severe liver damage head-on and steering my diet down a healthier lane. It's a transparent tale from succumbing to a sugar-heavy diet, to discovering delight in zero-sugar rum and culinary creativity that doesn't skimp on satisfaction. Plus, we'll explore how these life changes can affect social dynamics, and how to navigate gatherings without abandoning your health goals or your social life. It's all about striking that delicate balance between well-being and still relishing the good times.

Lastly, we're unpacking the complexities of financial planning and how it varies across the pond, from U.S. retirement schemes to Australia's superannuation. Our discussion branches out to encompass life insurance tweaks and the offbeat idea of collectibles as inheritance – yes, my Planet Express ship could be someone's treasure down the line. We're also swapping stories with friends about the idiosyncrasies of bequeathing belongings. So if you're a dad trying to stay afloat in the parenting pool, or just someone eager for a hearty mix of tech, health, and fiscal savvy, this episode packs a punch!

I'm from Australia and am what you would call a father who games. I have 5 kids so not as much time to game as I used to. But I still game and stream when I can. So come join me on Twitch in chat as we chill out.
