  • EP:141 - Contradiction
    Sep 12 2025

    On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking, I’ll be talking about, Size, Contradicions and Faces

    I was out on my bike the other day and I rode past a paddock that had some cows and calf's in it, and I thought to myself ‘look at those lil calfs’. However, yes a calf is ‘small’ compared to a cow, but a calf is really the size of a medium to large dog, even though they are babies.

    Old people love to say stuff, and sometimes also contradict themselves. So here is an example of one of those ‘contradictions’ so the claim was that if ‘one person complains, so they’ll change whatever’ then instantly get into a story where they made a complaint, and didn't get any sort of result, brilliant.

    Once again, recently I was out and about on my bike I saw someone walking with headphones on, a classic look these days. Now, I had passed this person (from behind) earlier in my ride, I then went past them again a little later on, and the look on their face was one of sternness, seriousness and id say concentration. Its not completely unusual for someone to shoot a smile or a friendly nod, but not this time!

  • EP:140 - Buffett Time
    Aug 29 2025

    On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking, I’ll be talking about, Election ‘Fallout’, Having a Birthday and Warren Buffett.

    As you all know, we had an election recently, so after some ‘shenanigans’ if I could call it that, the results (for now) are in and spoiler, they are unchanged from what they were before.

    So basically, I had a birthday a few weeks ago, and I had fish and chips, that's it.

    I love getting emails, and recently I was checking my iCloud email (yeah I’ve got one of them) and I was lucky enough to have an email from investment tycoon Warren Buffett! Unfortunately for me, he wasn't offering me truck loads of money, but only if I gave him my bank details and password first.

  • EP:139 - Booked Out
    Aug 1 2025

    On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking, I’ll be talking about, Booked Out, Solo Working and Election Update.

    Firstly, today (day of recording) has been a very rainy day, so myself and one of my siblings thought we might go out to virtual golf, however because we didn't book, we couldn't get it. So we thought we’d go to Bowling, but because we didn't book, we couldn’t get in. So we went and had Sushi, then went back home!!

    Recently, I was given a bit of a boost of confidence at work (sort of) I was sent off to do a 3d scan of a building, ALL BY MYSELF, and I didn’t cosh it up ! This is the first time I’ve had to do a 3d scan by myself, and I think only the 3rd time I’ve actually done/been involved in doing one.

    As you all may remember, I mentioned that we were going to have an election. Well the results are not quite in, but it seems that the parliament will be pretty much what it was last time. That said, there could be a change of government, but time will tell.

  • EP:138 - More Elections
    Jul 18 2025

    On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking, I’ll be talking about, Parmies, Elections and Indecisiveness.

    Lets talk about the classic pub ‘parmi’ my god I love em, not sure why, its crumbed chicken with stuff on top. That said, recently I was at a pub and I had a ‘meat lovers’ parmi, that was a stock parmi with BBQ sauce, ham and salami on top !! what a time it was.

    Elections, how great are they, well due to some parliamentary ‘skulduggery’ I’ll be voting in yet another one! This has basically been brought on due to there being a vote of no confidence in the Premier, who then didnt resign or seek support from the cross bench which has then lead to a election.

    Indecisiveness, what a great thing to have? Or to be? I’m not sure, but I dont do to well with making ‘big’ decisions, or maybe im just bad at making decisions, im not actually indecisive.

  • That's Not Right
    Jul 4 2025

    On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking, I’ll be talking about, Ankles, Defects and The Future.

    Remember the other week when I did the 5km run, well my ankles were ouchy for many weeks after, then one day, they were pretty much back to being fine. I did have a theory on, not based on anything medical as to why they’re now better.

    Recently I was able to go ‘on site’ at work and do ‘defects’ that basically entails going over the workmanship, and pointing out any issues with the fit and finish. Think like is there any chips or issues with the paintwork, gaps in any joinery etc.

    Is it time to wind up the Podcast? I think in recent times, the consistency of the show along with the lack of content/topics that im gathering is diminishing, so is it time I wind it up?

  • EP:136 - Runs
    Jun 6 2025

    On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking, I’ll be talking about, Running !

    So, running, how do we feel about that. Yes, you’re right it is awful. But guess what, I did some recently, oh yes (and my ankles are kinda hurting as a result) here is the ‘juice’ myself along with some of my colleagues took part in the running festival, most of my coworkers did the 10km distance, but I did the 5km length (because you know, broken hip and all that, just over a year ago) But two of the bosses did the half marathon along with the 10km distance, crazy stuff ! (or fitness gods?)

  • EP:135 - Cult Hero
    May 9 2025

    On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking, I’ll be talking about, Hot Drinks, Elections and Racks.

    The other week at the office I thought to myself, has my hot drink intake increased? I feel like I’ve gone from one hot drink to 2-3 at the office on a daily basis. Is that to many !!

    Elections can be depressing, but luckily here in Australia we have pretty good elections, everyone trusts the process, everyone votes (because we have to) and whilst you’re out out at the polling booth, you might even get a snag. But when it comes to election coverage, the public broadcaster ABC have had a legendary election analyst who has just done their last election. A cult hero to many, that's for sure.

    Lets talk Pannier racks briefly, I was able to borrow one from a friend which didn't quite fit onto my bike, so they gave me another one to try, which once again didn’t quite fit. Somewhat ironically though, if it is actually irony, the first rack I tried I could make fit easier than the second one.

  • EP:134 - Holidays
    Apr 25 2025

    On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking, I’ll be talking about, Holidays, Novels and Recovery.

    I do love me some days off, but the Easter season has been quite the situation, when it comes to my work schedule. Just for context I work a 4 day week (Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri) given how the holidays work here in straya, these last 2 weeks, I’ve had ‘only’ 5 days at the office instead of 8!

    This year I’ve been trying to do some more reading, thus far I’ve read 6 books! And we’re not even in May yet!

    As you all may be aware, not quite a year ago I had a bit of an incident, and I’m still not back to 100% as yet! In this last slot, I’m just going to give you all a brief overview of my hip recovery.
