Send us Fan MailHey there, laughter lovers and history buffs—get ready for a joyride through gaming's past with a side of cheeky banter! Imagine a FaceTime call so epic it includes a white Tiger Zord and a kid's priceless reaction—that's the level of fun we're bringing. While we're cranking out tunes and weaving in witty jabs at our absent comrade Hayden, we're plotting his humorous fate for missing out on our internet antics. Tune in as we open the floor to you, our listeners, to suggest creative penalties for Hayden's elusive ways, all while we take a nostalgic look at the Call of Duty series, from its golden days to the 'plastic age' of gaming.Buckle up as we express our honest gripes with the later Call of Duty titles, from Advanced Warfare's exosuit escapades to Black Ops 3's parkour-style warfare. We're not holding back on our disappointment, even if it means admitting we had a fling with other games like PUBG and Battlefield 1 during COD's futuristic phase. But it wasn't all doom and gloom; join us as we give a nod to the social strides made in games like World War II and the unexpected delights of Warzone's Gulag showdowns. We'll share our personal battle tales, from clumsy victories to grenade mastery, and celebrate the unique strengths that cemented our squad as gaming legends.As we wrap up, we don't shy away from the gritty details of Modern Warfare's series and the sore spots like skill-based matchmaking that tested our patience. Even so, we'll admit when a game like Vanguard pulls us back in, despite its lukewarm reception. And for the grand finale, we're hyping up our upcoming panel in downtown Lawrenceville—think trivia and giveaways. So, if you enjoyed this rib-tickling, nostalgia-packed episode, be sure to join us for the next round of shenanigans, where we'll hopefully have all hands on deck!Support the show

The Last Outlaws Impact Studios at UTS In a History Lab season like no other, we're pulling on the threads of one of Australia's great misunderstood histories, moving beyond the myths to learn what the Aboriginal brothers Jimmy and Joe Governor faced in both life and death.Australia's budding Federation is the background setting to this remarkable story, that sees the Governor brothers tied to the inauguration of a 'new' nation and Australia's dark history of frontier violence, racial injustice and the global trade and defilement of Aboriginal ancestral remains. This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
