Why do people get cosmetic surgery? Is the trend increasing? How does this inform, enhance or distort our self-identity? With a special appearance by Dr Gemma Sharp (body image expert from Monash University), we delve into the world of Body Dysmorphic Disorder and explore exactly why Matt (and millions of others) went ‘under the knife’. In this conversation we slammed together two worlds: the founder Australia’s largest hair restoration surgery clinic – Mikko Myllymaki, and Dr Ben Buchanan – a clinical psychologist and academic who specialises in Body Dysmorphic Disorder. With mental health experts warning against the surging popularity of cosmetic surgery, and surgeons fighting to give the people what they demand, are these two worlds at war? Or do they rely on each other in the long run? ---------------------------------- DISCERNABLE The Video Archive: https://discernable.io Prefer audio?

Reviewing some of the media the Failed Premier has been getting lately. Some of the ads are sarcastic, some are devastating, but one thing is sure - media sentiment has started turning. --------------------------------------- This is a segment from Season 5 Episode 8 of The People's Project: https://youtu.be/6my7bg43vNQ DISCERNABLE The Podcast: http://discernable.io/listen The Crew Mailing List: https://discernable.io/crew The Video Archive: https://www.youtube.com/discernable https://www.discernable.io/ Paul Dimattina https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-dimattina-99270b1b5 Emily from Voice for Victoria https://www.instagram.com/voiceforvictoria ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3kyXkbLfVQ

Rohan from #NotAboveTheLaw keeps making a case for Australian values and how they are inherently good. I like to challenge him as I witness communities turn on each other but he does have a good point - Australians have been subjected to an extraordinary amount of social engineering and manipulation. Perhaps we should forgive them and instead speak to the 'better angels of their nature'?
