  • #146 Kyle : The Elder Care Crisis: Aging Population, Nursing Homes & the Future of Community Care
    Jul 30 2026

    In this conversation, Dev Singh sits down with Kyle, a general practitioner attorney, to discuss the reality of elder care in America. Kyle shares his experience working with families who are facing estate planning, aging parents, assisted living, nursing homes, memory care, dementia care, at-home care, and the difficult financial decisions that come with growing older.

    We also discuss the workforce challenges in elderly care, the shortage of care workers, the role of at-home care, and the emotional pressure on families who are caring for children while also supporting aging parents. The conversation looks at the shift from institutional care toward community-based care, human rights-based practice, individual autonomy, independence, and dignity.

    Kyle also shares why he believes more funding should go directly to individuals and families who can provide care in a more humane, caring, and loving way.

  • #145 John Frankman : The Soldier Who Refused to Stay Silent
    Jul 29 2026

    In this powerful conversation, Dev Singh sits down with John Frankman, a former Special Forces Green Beret, to discuss his journey of service, faith, military life, moral conviction, and advocacy for service members affected by the COVID vaccine mandate.

  • #143 Robert Holmes: It’s Time for Disability Action

    In this conversation with Robert, we explore the future of disability reform in Australia, including the Royal Commission, the NDIS Review, Disability Rights Act, foundation supports, mainstream supports, provider regulation, worker screening, home and living, the navigator role, and what it really means to build an inclusive and fair Auastralia.

    This episode looks at why Australia needs to move from reviews and committees into practical action. We discuss the need for stronger safeguards, clearer regulation, better worker screening, fairer provider registration, consistent education supports across states, better housing choices, and a support system that works no matter where a person lives.

    Watch the full episode for a grounded and honest conversation about disability reform, NDIS change, human rights, safety, housing, and the future of support in Australia.

  • #141 Christine Bigby: Truth About NDIS, Group Homes & Disability Inclusion
    Jul 29 2026

    In this powerful conversation with Professor Christine Bigby, we explore disability practice, intellectual disability, NDIS reform, group homes, supported decision-making, social inclusion, and why quality support must be judged by what happens in the real moment between a support worker and the person they are supporting.

    Christine shares decades of research into community living, disability services, active support, practice leadership, safeguarding, and the difference between policy intentions and what actually happens on the frontline. The conversation challenges the idea that more paperwork, more indicators, and more policies automatically create better outcomes.

    We also discuss the Royal Commission, rights-based ideology, evidence-based practice, the future of group homes, the care and support economy, mainstream supports, housing, poverty, inequality, and whether Australia is really on the path to becoming a more inclusive and fair society.

    Watch the full conversation to understand why disability support is not just about systems, funding, or compliance. It is about people, relationships, practice, evidence, and dignity.
