For 40 years, crime was the only constant in Lincoln Lynch’s life, until a prison stint forced him to look inward and change the trajectory of his life for good.
His young mum went to prison for dealing drugs when Lincoln was little, and eventually he followed in her footsteps.
Lincoln endured periods of homelessness and institutionalised abuse as a teenager, and he became a teen father, before winding up in prison himself.
There, in his cell, Lincoln discovered God’s teachings about compassion and forgiveness, and he resolved to leave prison a different man.
On the outside, he was given practical, real-life support to re-establish his life at a halfway house in Sydney called Rainbow Lodge.
With new-found confidence and purpose, Lincoln started studying psychology, fell in love and is now working at the lodge, helping other men find their way outside of prison.
Content Warning: this episode of Conversations contains discussion about childhood abuse and sexual assault.

The inaugural winner of Alone Australia on her life as a creative, outrageous, nature-loving misfit who grew up to live through great depths of love and grief. Warning: Discusses the death of a child.
In 2023, Gina Chick spent 67 days by herself, in the wilderness of Tasmania’s West Coast, surviving on worms, fish, and one unlucky wallaby.
After those 67 days, Gina became the first-ever winner of a reality show on SBS called Alone Australia, but her approach to the competition was very different from the other contestants.
For Gina, the wild was not an enemy to be overcome but a place with no hierarchy, where she feels completely herself.
It’s always been that way, since she was a 'weird' little girl with a rare affinity with birds and nature.
As an adult, Gina spent years inside Sydney’s queer club scene and working for an all-girl security firm, but life changed completely for Gina when she became a mother herself.

Nuking the moon, putting mirrors in space and blowing up the Polar ice caps are just some of history's hairbrained schemes to control the weather, an obsession man has had since the dawn of time.
As a major heatwave tears through Europe, millions of people are frantically trying to stay cool, or praying for some relief. Their desperation is not new.
For thousands of years, human civilisations have been obsessed with trying to control the weather, to stave off drought and famine, in order to survive.
There are ancient tales of great kings who could part the oceans, and deities who would bring down the rain if they were presented with the right kind of sacrifice.
But it wasn’t until the last century that we suddenly had the technology to actually do these kinds of things, or at least attempt to do them.
Some of these wild ideas - to bring water to the desert, drain the Mediterranean Sea to make farmlands, simply make Russia a warmer place to live - have involved blowing up the Polar ice caps, putting mirrors in space, and nuking the moon.
They sound dangerous and unlikely, but some of them have come true.
And now, many people are at work on brand new gigantic geo-engineering solutions to counteract the effects of the warming planet.
Palaeontologist and explorer, Tim Flannery, has been tracking the progress of some of these schemes.

John Hockney's memoir gives a rare insight into the unusual life of one of the world's most famous artists.
He grew up in the industrial town of Bradford in Northern England and was one of five children in a creative household, led by his iconoclastic father Kenneth, a conscientious objector who always told his children to 'never worry what the neighbours think'.
During the war, there were many shortages. As child, John's brother David would creep downstairs in the morning and draw on whatever paper was available.
He drew figures, streets, houses, landscapes and cartoons on the white edge of the newspaper, his mother's magazines, or whatever comics arrived that day.
When David got his first sketchbook at the age of 10, his parents realised his drawing was much more than compulsive doodling.
This episode of Conversations was first broadcast in 2020
Further Information
John Hockney's memoir is called The Hockneys: Never Worry About What the Neighbours Think

For more than a century, Melbourne's Abbotsford Convent was occupied by the Sisters of the Good Shepherd, and the "wayward" girls and orphans they took care of. Patricia Sykes was one of those girls.
She was dropped off at the orphanage with her three sisters in the early 1950s after their mother died.
Their father couldn't afford to take care of four girls at home, but wanted them to stay together, so an orphanage felt like his only option.
As a girl, Patricia, a gifted student who loved music and words, desperately wanted to escape the convent.
But later in life, after finally finishing school and then university as a mother and mature student, Patricia returned to Abbotsford Convent.
As a poet in residence, Patricia went back on her own terms to hear and to tell the stories of dozens of women who passed through its doors, and to interrogate her own understanding of her time with the nuns.
Patricia's collection of poetry is called The Abbotsford Mysteries. You can find information about all of Patricia's books online.

A powerful and expressive voice, flamboyant physical presence, and mane of dark hair have become his trademarks as a performer.

Anna Dombkins was 25 years old, when she and her husband happened on a television program about adoption which would completely change their lives. CW: this episode of Conversations discusses adoption.
It was a documentary investigating the unimaginable conditions of some orphanages in China.
The newly married couple felt compelled to adopt, but because they already had biological children, it was near impossible to adopt in Australia.
The newly married couple felt compelled to adopt children who had no other family support, but because they already had biological children, it was near impossible to adopt in Australia.
While living in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro for a number of years, Anna saw how many children were coming into local orphanages not because they were unwanted or because their biological parents had died, but because their families simply couldn't afford to take care of them.
So, since returning to Australia and becoming a mother to her sixth child, Anna became the founding director of Forever Projects, a charity supporting Tanzanian women in poverty, so they can live independently, care for and keep their babies without having to resort to adoption.
Forever Projects has since helped more than 3,000 babies remain with their families.

James O'Loghlin had only just reconnected with one of his best and oldest friends, Jum Wallner, when Jum received some terrible news. What began next was a high stakes race with a fatal deadline.
The two men had grown up in Canberra, where thousands of homes had been filled with asbestos, which was often carelessly installed and removed.
Jum himself had grown up in one of these so-called "Mr Fluffy" homes, named after the local company that had installed the carcinogenic insulation.
When Jum felt a pain in his side, it wasn't long before the father of two and husband was diagnosed with mesothelioma and given months to live.
Jum had discovered that if you got sick from being exposed to asbestos in your workplace you were entitled to compensation, but if it came from your home, you got nothing.
So Jum asked his old friend James for some help to petition the powers that be to help asbestos victims like himself and their families.
James began a race against time, trying to convince both the ACT and Federal governments to help Jum and others, in the middle of a pandemic, before it was too late.
Along the way, James and Jum reconnected deeply as friends who desperately wished they had more time together.

Ken Gamble is very good at spying on people doing the wrong thing but perhaps the investigations that have had the most impact are the missing person cases he's taken on pro bono.
Ken spent part of his childhood living in a remote outback pub and by the age of 12, he was driving drunk jackaroos back to their stations.
When his family moved to the Sunshine Coast, Ken took up boxing on the amateur circuit and left school in Year 10 to pursue the sport full time, until a savage injury ended his career before it had really begun.
After stints in the Army Reserve and as a firefighter, Ken decided he wanted to be a private investigator and began working in personal injury insurance fraud where he became highly skilled in covert surveillance.
And with the arrival of the internet, Ken turned his attention to tracking down the humans behind online scams.
Ken has also been called on to help in some high-profile missing person cases, including that of Belgian backpacker, Celine Cremer.

Gonzo journalist and writer John Safran on why he decided to squat in a Hollywood mansion belonging to Kanye West.John Safran has made a career out of getting into places he probably shouldn't be, from breaking into Disney Land, to infiltrating fascist strongholds in Australia.
A couple of years ago, one of his journalistic expeditions saw him squatting in an abandoned Hollywood mansion belonging Kanye West.
John had seen a clip of the hip hop start denying the Holocaust, defending Adolf Hitler, and claiming that Black people cannot be anti-Semitic because they are actually Jewish.
His week writing and snooping in this strange house, with no running water and a vulture in the roof, made John go increasingly loopy as he tried to understand what pushed this critically acclaimed artist from celebrity eccentric to seriously 'out there'.

Everyone knows the story of the Titanic - the biggest, most magnificent, most expensive ship ever built.
It was meant to be unsinkable. But when it hit an iceberg on its maiden voyage across the Atlantic, it sank, killing 1500 people.
For more than 100 years, the tragedy has inspired filmmakers, historians and explorers to unearth the incredible human stories of love, survival and class warfare.

This is the story of Evelyn Marsden, the only Australian survivor of the sinking of the Titanic, and the real Titanic love story that shaped the rest of her life.

Clinical psychologist and men's mental health researcher Zac Seidler on how boys are being fed increasingly inflammatory content online, and what men can do IRL to offer a version of masculinity that is healthy and vulnerable, instead of hard and dangerous.
Many young men are taking a journey on the internet right now which starts with inoffensive self-improvement videos on platforms like YouTube and TikTok, but quickly becomes something else entirely.
Young guys are searching the internet for fitness, grooming or relationship advice, looking for self-esteem and self-discipline.
The algorithm then tries to sustain their attention by offering them more inflammatory and more dangerous content, presented by influencers with cigars and sunglasses, who give them an ideology that blames women for all of their problems.
This is the loose digital ecosystem that has been named the 'manosphere', and it's leading people to wonder what exactly is going on with men that they're being drawn into a dark place and ideology that completely alienates them from women and from real life experience.
Zac Seidler is a clinical psychologist and the director of research at Movember, the men's mental health charity, and he is particularly interested in men's issues.
Zac has conducted some world-first research into this online world, asking the questions 'What need is this content meeting?', and how can men be empowered to pull themselves, their sons and their mates out of this dangerous cycle.
Keep up to date with the research Zac is doing via Movember, the leading charity changing the face of men's health.
