This week we dive straight into one of the biggest nutritional shake-ups of the decade: the introduction of America’s inverse food pyramid.

With a fresh perspective (and a touch of jetlag), we break down what this new model means for our understanding of a “healthy” diet, why the pendulum has swung towards animal protein and whole foods, and how grains have found themselves at the smallest tip instead of the base. We also wrestle with the philosophical, political, and cultural battles this shift could spark, and what it all means for Australia’s own dietary guidelines.

In the spirit of all things 2026, we kick off the new year by reflecting on our inspiring interview with Peg (last week’s episode), a trailblazing 103-year-old who radiates humility despite her remarkable achievements. Our conversation explores the importance of goal-setting, authenticity, and finding purpose—whether it's running 5K in 20 minutes (Damo’s goal for 2026) or simply creating meaningful moments with our loved ones.

We share our personal rituals for designing the year ahead, encouraging you to carve out time for reflection, solitude, and connecting with a supportive community. Join us as we set the tone for an exceptional 2026, full of intention, courage, and a bit of good old “blood, sweat, and tears.”

Today on 100 Not Out we have the rare privilege of speaking with an extraordinary Australian whose life spans more than a century of history, change and contribution.

The Honourable Margaret Lusink AM — born Margaret Rosanove in 1922 — is 103 years young and still carries the sharpness, clarity and humour that have defined her life and career. Peg - as she is affectionately known - is the daughter of the pioneering barrister Joan Rosanove QC, and went on to become a trailblazer in her own right: the first Victorian woman appointed to a Superior Court of Record when she joined the Family Court of Australia in 1976.

Her journey is remarkable not only for her achievements, but for the resilience behind them — from being widowed with three young sons, to returning to study law as a mature-age student, to forging a legal career at a time when women in the profession were still fighting for basic recognition. She later became a judge, an educator, a community servant, and an example of what purpose, grit and passion look like over the long arc of a life.

Today we get to explore that life: her family story, her career milestones, her perspectives on longevity, and what she has learned across 103 extraordinary years.It is truly an honour to welcome the Honourable Peg Lusink AM to 100 Not Out.
