43:42
Yeah.
43:44
Yeah, look, I think in a perfect world we'd, recognise our similarities more than fight about our differences.
43:51
I think at the very least, you know, coming together and realising that the system we're in, this sort of capitalist system, very new, it's only been around a short time and there's huge cracks forming.
44:05
But to look at traditional societies like Indigenous Australians that figured out systems that went on for thousands of generations, an unbroken chain of culture, that could have gone on forever if it wasn't disrupted.
44:20
Is that going to be the case with this system that we have created in the last sort of hundred and whatever years of industrialization? And, you know, I think the answer to that is no.
44:30
Look at civilizations around the world.
44:32
They've grown up, they've proliferated.

What inspired you to make your first video?
24:29
We know they can move like lightning in the water, but what about if they got up onto the road there, onto the ramp, could they still go pretty quickly?
24:36
Yeah, it's not just the risk of another crocodile there.
24:39
There is absolute certainty that there's not just one other crocodile.
24:42
There can be up to 30 or 40 crocodiles at that crossing.
24:45
As the tide pushes in, the fish move upstream.
24:48
It's a, it's a, a spot where crocodiles aggregate.
24:51
So it, it's gotta be one of the most dangerous places, uh, to, to do behavior like this anywhere in the Northern Territory.
26:42
Tell us about the, the risks of this little s- this little splash.
21:42
But with colder conditions forecast, he's not concerned just yet.
21:48
We've had a very mild winter in Pozières, which, yeah, by this time of the year would be expecting a lot more heavy frost and, you know, extended periods of cold weather.
21:58
Part of that's been brought on by a bit of early winter rain, which kept everything a bit warmer.
22:04
But, yeah, definitely stayed mild into July.
22:08
Have you had a frost there yet? We have had a couple of frosts, yeah.
22:13
Just no extended periods of frosting like we would have seen in other years by this time of the year.

So the trees themselves, which are dormant, they still need that colder weather?
24:40
Yeah, so through the dormancy period, that's when they require their chill hours.

podcastsWhat was it about each other that made you know that your lives could blend, that you could take this from the TV to the farm? Like, what was it about the other person that made you so sure?
18:28
Oh, for, for me, like, I instantly felt really amazing when I was around Em.
18:34
Um, another really strong quality that I noticed really early on was how she treated the other girls and how she was in a, in an environment.
18:45
Um, that's, you know, that's, if we joined our mind right back to the start, like, those two qualities were just, like, I remember talking to my producer Jackson just going, "Oh, I feel so light, so happy around her.
18:59
It's just so easy." And then just seeing her interact in the group, it was like a really nice scene to see.
19:06
Like, it's, you're under a lot of pressure, and the fact that she could be that kind and, and bubbly around all the other girls was, like, really big for me from the start.
