00:00:00
Speaker 1: David Penberthy and Will Goodings five Double A Breakfast, six bars six.
00:00:05
Speaker 2: Good morning to you and welcome to Monday, the twenty ninth of September. Will Goodings having the week off, enjoying a lovely week with his family, a well deserved week, maybe detoxing after the Crows season, who knows, but a big show on the way. We'll get your cross the latest in news. Headlines were off to the US before seven. Horrific news breaking at the moment. Another school shooting budget figures released today, hints of a royal visit and another overnight suspicious shop fire. We will have the very latest. It was a huge Grand Final on Saturday. Robbie will join us to pull it all apart. And if you've got a review of Snoop Dogg's performance, we'd love to hear from you. Eight double two to three Double low, Double low, and of course another big event for five Double a Breakfast. Cheese fest is back, which means what it's my cheese is back. But thankfully a man that loves a bit of Snoop dog they would have been dropping it like it was hot drinking gin jurs. David Panberthy, Good morning to you.
00:01:02
Speaker 3: Good morning, Johno. Good to good to have you here. As you said, Will is off for a well earned break. I don't know Will does it the first thing people, And it's great to be working with you, mate.
00:01:12
Speaker 4: For those of you who don't know JOHNO does.
00:01:14
Speaker 3: He often does his own show on Sundays, but he's off the bench coming in hot and he's produced our show a lot over the last few years as well. So it's great to be, you know, rather than working behind the mic, to be on the mic together.
00:01:31
Speaker 4: Mate. But when people say to me, oh, you and Will, how does Will do it? How does Will do radio? And then you know, a few hours later he pops up on TV. You know it's burning the candle at both ends. And you know, I think as a young dad at the start of the school holidays with the rest of his family as well being busy, he thought, let's all sneak off somewhere warm.
00:01:59
Speaker 2: So good on him for doing that, absolutely well deserved. It was a big weekend that the AFL Grand Final. David, I'm going to get your reviews and we want to hear from people what they thought of Snoop Dog. But I was a little bit disappointed David. There were some great co labs. I think everyone was surprised with Snoop Dog. They thought maybe it was a little bit better than anticipated. Was excellent, a little bit more well behaved. But we saw Jessica Malboy, we saw Baker Boy. But there was perhaps one co lab that I was a little bit disappointed didn't take place.
00:02:29
Speaker 5: Two in the morning. I got pitchers in the living room getting it on and they ain't leave until six in the morning. I got a pocket full of rubbers, and my homeboys do too, So turn on the lights and close the doors. So what do you want to do now?
00:02:46
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, I think what's happened is the AFL couldn't afford Graham Goodings.
00:02:49
Speaker 3: Well, you know, it's a big missed opportunity because they wouldn't have had to worry about stumping Fee his flight.
00:02:55
Speaker 4: Graham was there.
00:02:57
Speaker 3: Graham was literally meters away from Snoop Dog as a member of the Crow's board. The board members go to the AFL Grand Final. This is yet another missed opportunity by the AFL in a season that's been marred by controversies over Round zero, the brownlow votes. The whole lead up to Snoop himself in the context of the.
00:03:24
Speaker 4: Rank and fiasco, and now.
00:03:28
Speaker 3: Graham Gooding sitting there having done what is easily the best spoken word version of Gin and Juice and yeah no as you say, no.
00:03:38
Speaker 4: Ka not happy.
00:03:40
Speaker 3: I thought Snoop was good, though, I'd love to hear what the listeners think. And what about Rob? How great vote Rob out of the box earlier. It's a very good text, guys. In a further embarrassment to the AFL twenty twenty five Sons Brownlow winner Matt Rowe received two Norm Smith Metal votes.
00:03:57
Speaker 2: You can join the conversation at any stage on the Police Home Care text line, or he can join us on a double two three double O double OW. But another really inspiring story that came out of the AFL over the weekend was young Alex Kots, a twelve year old from South Australia lives at West Lakes. He lives with cerebral palsy, but that hasn't stopped him. He was at the Brownlow last week. He then got the opportunity to toss the coin in front of over one hundred thousand at the MCG and he got to meet Snoop DOGG but.
00:04:28
Speaker 3: When the kid almost he lost the coin and Danger had to fish it out the side of his wheelchair.
00:04:32
Speaker 4: Correct, that is excellent, but omen for the for the cats didn't.
00:04:38
Speaker 2: Work out for the cats. But for Alex. You know, there was meeting Snoop, you know, meeting AFL players. Yeah, it was a bit of a big deal. But there was only one person he really wanted to meet. Was Bruce mcavaaney. The greatest of all time. Seriously, he said, he said, his absolute childhood hero who he wants to be like when he grows up. Bruce mcavaany wants to be commentator. So this morning for one hundred dollars, Kent Town Hotel vout one hundred dollars. Easiest way to enjoy the balcony bar upstairs at the Kent Town Hotel. I'd love to know who are or who were your childhood heroes A double two three, double double O. The number to ring Alex was Bruce mcaveany. So many what about you, Dave Well.
00:05:24
Speaker 3: The good thing about growing up in the seventies as a kid who was passionate about s a NFL.
00:05:28
Speaker 4: Was you could meet all your childhood heroes.
00:05:31
Speaker 3: I've still got a little red autograph book that I used to take with me to the footy every week, and it's got the autographs of Jack eighty Wow, Rick Davies, Paul Bagshaw, Michael Graham, Phil Heinrich, Jeff Leonard, Colin Casey, Phil sand Like, it's got pretty much every single stirp player from that era. And me and my cousin Mike. The moment the siren would sound at the end, we're just straight through the fence onto the ground, and it became like this real sort of point of pride that Mike wasn't as big a nerd as me. He was also a few years older, so he is more mature but as a kid, and I can't bring myself to get rid of it. I've still got it in a dextraw. It serves no purpose. But yeah, that was that little red autograph book. I reckon we'd have listeners who had autograph books from there back in the day. But let's throw it over to the listeners.
00:06:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, A double two three, double O double ow the number to ring one hundred dollars town hotel voucher, easiest way to win. Before we jump into the childhood heroes, let's go to Mark and Waler, who's got a snoop review? Mark, what did you think?
00:06:43
Speaker 6: Hey, good boys? I reckon it was really really good. I was really surprised at how good it was. It was excellent, would have been fantastic at night, but yeah, I was.
00:06:51
Speaker 5: I thought it was great.
00:06:52
Speaker 6: The crowd seemed to love it. I was thirteen to do his things pretty cool?
00:06:56
Speaker 4: Do you really don't you, reckon, Mark?
00:06:57
Speaker 3: It felt like the most professional pre match, almost like a super Bowl standard pre match.
00:07:03
Speaker 6: Oh, absolutely, Dave. I mean you could actually see everybody just getting into it. It was super well chor and characterraphy. Everybody loved Jessica Melwall was a great three break thing to come out as well. You know, god the did I thought it was just fantastic and look brilliant. I reckon, it's a great expected on Telly. I think everybody loved it. And a big kick to Andrew Dylan and the Boss All.
00:07:28
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it was I agree.
00:07:29
Speaker 3: I thought it was from a musical perspective and from a getting the crowd up, And maybe it was because it was so mard and controversy because of the contrast with the rank and stuff. It was almost like when you go into a party that you're not really that excited about, and you get you end up getting there and you go, actually, I'm having a really good time.
00:07:46
Speaker 2: I'm sure it had a certain sigh of relief when you know, I know that the radio broadcasters and TV broadcasters were a little bit worried about swearing and bits and pieces, so they took it into lay.
00:07:56
Speaker 3: Did you notice at the start we heard it on the radio and the audio that was coming through because we were on our way to a mate's house and Windsor Gardens for a barbie and we didn't get there because Snoop was on at one fifteen local time, the game starting at two. We didn't get there until about well, it was after sneep finish. Were just like head along playing on road og road around that neck of the woods, and it was on the radio. But at the start of it you had this I ain't got no sound in my eart, I ain't hearing nothing in my ear.
00:08:29
Speaker 4: And Kate looked at me and she goes, oh, I know, there's got meatload vibes. But immediately started it was fine, but it was funny that didn't come across on the TV. No.
00:08:38
Speaker 2: I think they must have they had to lay because they were all worried that you know, there may be some expletives dropped, but it still came off magnificently.
00:08:46
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:08:47
Speaker 4: No, I thought it was good. Yeah, you know, I mean I think too the whole thing, you know, not that I understand it. I said it myself, like like a lot of people did.
00:08:56
Speaker 3: I thought that there was a great hypocrisy about the way Rankin was treated it at the same time that they'll paying millions of.
00:09:02
Speaker 4: Dollars to him.
00:09:03
Speaker 3: But that's a separate issue from is it good music or not correct? And I think some of the I'm not potting Graham here because you know, maybe some of this is is a generational thing. But I do wonder whether some of the moral panic around Snoop was kind of over the top, and you know a bit of a HARKing back to the Rolling Stones being told they weren't allowed to sing Let's spend the Night together and had to change the lyrics when they appeared on on on late night TV. Like, you know, the actual content of his music, Yeah, it might be a bit edgy, but that's sort of what a lot of good music is.
00:09:42
Speaker 2: Well, you know, so would Brown Sugar as well with Rolling Stone. No probably for good reason.
00:09:49
Speaker 4: The lyrics a song about slavery you might.
00:09:52
Speaker 2: Like I love slavery On a Monday morning. Stacey from Richmond's called in Stacy. Your childhood hero.
00:10:00
Speaker 8: Has to be Russell Eve.
00:10:02
Speaker 9: Oh, yes, one night supporter and he was the big name.
00:10:10
Speaker 3: Yes, absolute legend and such an amazing gentleman too. Everyone who met Russell raved about him. You know.
00:10:18
Speaker 4: The worst thing that happened. Peter Carey, Super Carey from Glenelg excellent, excellent bike, one.
00:10:23
Speaker 3: Of the greats as well, someone who you can rightly mention in the same breath as a Russell Abit. He came about our school, Mariam Primary School for visit when I was a kid, and the teachers told us to bring something Fretty related along. So I took my autograph book. One of my mates. I've never forgiven him and if you're listening now, you know, damn Will who you are. Went up to Peter Carey with that, with my autograph book and said can you sign this? So it's it's this book of pristine Sturt player autographs, sullied.
00:10:57
Speaker 4: By the name of bass Great and I crossed it out.
00:11:01
Speaker 3: I just got to Pen when I crossed it out, I couldn't quite bring himself to cut the page out.
00:11:07
Speaker 4: Maybe what upsets you in your nine years old.
00:11:09
Speaker 2: News headlines and the dad of Locky Neil. Next, Robbie Neil, we spoke to him on Friday. We're going to pull apart? Was what was a huge day? More coming up after this.
00:11:19
Speaker 1: David Penberthie and Will Goodings five double, a breakfast twenty.
00:11:23
Speaker 2: Minutes past six here on five double. A few grenolins in the system, but that's all good, Pambo. It was a huge Saturday, a huge Grand Final. There was a lot of concern in the build up exactly what was going to happen with Locke Neil. You spoke to his dad on your Friday play like.
00:11:39
Speaker 4: An absolute champion, that's what's gonna happen with.
00:11:41
Speaker 2: But that's certainly what happened. And he joins us now, Robbie Neil, good morning to you. What a relief, what a huge game. Congratulations. It must be pretty exciting in the Neil household.
00:11:52
Speaker 7: Yeah, good morning David and John. And it is very exciting. And you're probably notice a bit of a change in my voice. I'm a bit bit husky. The excitement, yeah, and the celebrating, but it was I guess it was a plan that came together.
00:12:07
Speaker 3: I'm going to say, Robbie, when we spoke to you Friday and when we were talking about about your son and the injury cloud, you should have seen the look on like Tom Wren's face and Will Everyone's sort of wincing, going, oh, this is such a big gamble. But like he just played like there was no issue whatsoever. It was a remarkable recovery for the Blake.
00:12:28
Speaker 7: Yeah. Look, he did everything he could and he felt confident after his training blocks that he was good to go. So Fakes put trust in him in the end, And it was more around the game time because he'd had a previous degloving injury towards the end of the Home and Away leason. He'd only played one game in about six weeks or seven weeks or something, so not even but eight weeks. But that was the main sort of to get through a high intensity game. They decided to use him as the sub and pull the trigger when they did. And so credit to Fase was it was a master's threat.
00:13:04
Speaker 3: Ha Goods phase. You must know him pretty well now. He just seems like the world's most likable bloke.
00:13:10
Speaker 7: Absolutely, grandfather, father, figure, you name it. He's just got such a great relationship with all the players they played for him. I think when you get when you get players even at that level, that play for their coach, they can be a hard group to stop. And they just yes so much love and respect for him.
00:13:27
Speaker 4: Block.
00:13:27
Speaker 3: He's sort of like the grand old man of the side near him and Zorco and so forth. But what about are those kids coming through Bridsboe and we're scaring for a long time, aren't they?
00:13:36
Speaker 7: Well, they are, And what happens with the injury because we were probably thinking we were getting a bit too banged up. There's probably at least five or six flowers that could will be in that best twenty three that couldn't play, blakes like Jared Berry, Eric Kidwood, Jack Payne, now Handsworth, the list went on. But these kids that came in just played their role beautifully. So all of a sudden the future looks looks bright and they're in a pretty good window.
00:14:03
Speaker 4: Yeah, and how was that? Afterwards?
00:14:04
Speaker 3: What a sad day light look like? Robbie, to the extent that you can remember it.
00:14:10
Speaker 7: Now, I certainly enjoyed a quite a few drinks, but I just wanted to. Yeah, I guess it's orbit all and certainly the night went into the early hours, but it's just so good to see the boys just say wrapped and back to back. I think even yesterday, I think just Lockie sent me a text once they got the Brisbane just with the simple words back to back, and I know you would have been reflecting and just think, Wow, they've done it against adversity again, had to had to sort of do it a tough way with four finals.
00:14:41
Speaker 4: Yeah, totally, it's a great story.
00:14:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely incredible.
00:14:44
Speaker 4: Good on you Robbie. We love chatting on your Friday.
00:14:46
Speaker 3: And as you said, your voice sounds totally different today, not just the graspiness of it, but the fact that the relief as well, like because it's a huge, hugely emotionally draining thing being in a granny but they just played out of their skin.
00:14:58
Speaker 4: There's a great wind for bridge. Been good on your mate.
00:15:01
Speaker 7: Pleasure.
00:15:02
Speaker 2: Thanks guys, good on your Robbie magnificent game. If you've got a review of the Snoop Dogg performance, we'd love to hear from you, or if you'd like to share who are your Childhood hero is one hundred dollars Kent down voucher to give away. Let's turn to news headlines this morning and well, unfortunately Optus have had another outage, this time only affecting customers in New South Wales. The outage lasted around nine hours, impacting five thousand customers and in that time nine people were unable to contact Triple zero. It's understood.
00:15:31
Speaker 4: Hell is going on with that company. It's just it's unbelievable. It's pretty imagine who's running their IT department. Well, I know, poor the IT department. You know, if you feel like vending a bit of steam, just give them a ring.
00:15:45
Speaker 3: But you know, the victims of baseless abuse from people who can't remember their own password us, that's right, But in this case, who is the.
00:15:56
Speaker 4: Clutch in charge of it at Optis?
00:15:59
Speaker 2: Like, seriously, I'm not sure where it's going to end.
00:16:01
Speaker 4: But well we know we're attending in South Australia. It's called the coroner's court.
00:16:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'd love to hear from two.
00:16:08
Speaker 4: People that they're looking into, one of them being you know, a little.
00:16:12
Speaker 2: Baby, truly horrific and it'd be interesting to hear if our listeners have potentially changed providers as a result of what's taken place. Do they trust opt Us anymore? Is their brand reputation shot?
00:16:23
Speaker 3: What do you end up with a collection of different phones in case you've got a loved one that you need to ring CRIPPLEO for.
00:16:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's true to the UK and Prime Minister Anthony Albanezi has met with King Charles in a private audience at Balmoral in Scotland. It's the fourth meeting between the pair and the first time since the Monarch's trip to Australia last year. Here he is speaking a little bit earlier this morning.
00:16:44
Speaker 10: I regard it as a personal privilege, but importantly it's an honor for Australia. King Charles has a great affection for Australia.
00:16:56
Speaker 3: Rumors that at some point over the next couple of weeks Olbos thinking about visiting Australia.
00:17:01
Speaker 2: It's on the plan, it's on the list. He won't be visiting Us though he doesn't like five a breakfast.
00:17:05
Speaker 4: For some reason, I loves this.
00:17:07
Speaker 2: Albow has also hinted that the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Catherine, might be heading down Under soon. So that's certainly something to keep an eye on. Turning to the weather, another big story today. Beautiful sunset coming through here at Himarsh Square, top of twenty five degrees, partly cloudy, high chance of showers, potentially a thunderstorm this afternoon. But the big story I think is this weekend, because let me hit you with this. David's Saturday twenty six, light winds, sunny Sunday twenty eight.
00:17:39
Speaker 4: It's beach weather.
00:17:40
Speaker 3: It's almost hopefully you have access to a part of the beach that isn't filled with foam and dead stingrays that is a problem. Yeah, and hopefully the hot weather coming this weekend. It often does warm up around October long weekend. It feels like that's the time when it starts feeling well in true lot spring. But hopefully it doesn't just breathe new life into the bloom.
00:18:01
Speaker 7: Yeah.
00:18:01
Speaker 2: I hope Tom rand is in the five DOAA breakfast studio. All thanks to Glider old garage doors called gliderol now order a new door with operator. Before septem b received two extra handsets. Rennie, good morning, did you morning?
00:18:13
Speaker 11: John O Morning Pembo. Hope you had a great weekend. Fellows, winners and losers. Will start with the football. Amazing performance. How good Brisbane back to back? Could they do what they did at the start of the century and go three and a right amazing?
00:18:26
Speaker 4: He was unreal.
00:18:26
Speaker 11: They just blew the game apart. Will Ashcroft does what Andrew mcod did back to back?
00:18:30
Speaker 3: Norm Smith's how many are there if you've got eighteen Hashtrofts together?
00:18:34
Speaker 4: Seriously, if you get his, I reckon they get peap North Melbourne.
00:18:37
Speaker 11: Well they were pretty good, weren't they? LEVI was really solid. Will Ashcroft won the Norm Smith. Zach Bailey could have easily won the Norm Smith. I thought Harris Andrews was mcluggage. Four goals, twenty six touches.
00:18:49
Speaker 4: Even Charlie deserved one vote, I reckon. Charlie Cameron was great.
00:18:53
Speaker 11: He kicked his goals when the game was on the line, kicked four goals and he's had a pretty lean year by his lofty standards. But that I mean he pulled out his best. Lockie neel is the sub work to treat poor.
00:19:05
Speaker 4: Poor old Cameron though that was horrible.
00:19:07
Speaker 11: Playing with the broken army. He should have been subbed out. I mean that was that was that was cruel.
00:19:10
Speaker 3: What's going on with Chris Scott complaining about the sub rules but he's not obvious, like, well the guy he's probably got a broken arm.
00:19:17
Speaker 4: Maybe you should stop playing may Die you put the sub on? Yeah, like it's not rocket science.
00:19:22
Speaker 11: No, And and they're a big loser from the weekend obviously Geelong. I mean they've had another great season so it's harsh doing it. But Jeremy Cameron as well, he's going to be in the hospital for a while and nursing the broken arm. But yeah, I think probably just a bit of frustration post match from Scott.
00:19:37
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know.
00:19:38
Speaker 3: And dangerfield speech was excellent, fantastic states he's all class.
00:19:44
Speaker 11: You've got to love him. But well done to Brisbane. Other winners, well, the thirty six is what a victory. Yesterday Bryce Cotton in his first match for his new club thirty nine points, the five time MVP Arsenal had an amazing winning the soccer overnight, came from a goal down to win to one of the dying seconds. Marquez is the Moto GP champion. For all the redheads out there with the motorbikes. I don't know if you watched it yesterday, Pember and Johnno. But the NREL prelim between Brisbane and Penrith I've watched it, probably the best final I've ever seen. Fourteen Niel to Penrith who're going for five in a row, and then the Broncos just this title.
00:20:18
Speaker 2: That's the loudest.
00:20:19
Speaker 11: Atmosphere I've ever heard for an NRL game through the TV. They won sixteen to fourteen.
00:20:23
Speaker 3: It comes going in Lange Park, such a cauldron crowd, got a mom league. It was just insane. Would be editing the Brisbane Caurer Male Brisbane bristerday. Yes, it's all sport.
00:20:35
Speaker 4: How many pages of sport we do? What do we do all of them? Yeah?
00:20:39
Speaker 11: It was unreal and the Crow has got to mention Ebony marinof game number one hundred yesterday, two point win, twenty five touches, fourteen tackles. Ali Anderson same weekend playing for Brisbane got one hundred games as well, so two in the same weekend. A brilliant performance from both of them. Other losers just quickly and pasta Cogloo and Nottingham Forest still inlets from five games. Portswomen lost and the USA fans at the Ryder Cup have been a little bit crazy, like it's been wild. At the start of today, Team Europe led at eleven and a half points to four and a half, so there's twelve singles matches your opponently need to win two and a half. USA are on the cusp of potentially winning this. The crowd is going psycho like. It is one of the most amazing atmospheres. But some of the stuff that's been said by the fans to Macaron a few others has cross the line. It's become deeply, deeply personal. It's pretty wild, but I'll keep an eye on that. That the atmosphere, if you can get to a TV screen and watch it this morning, is next level.
00:21:38
Speaker 2: It is unreal, magnificent. Good on your round, your tom.
00:21:41
Speaker 1: Thanks boys, David Penberthie and Will Goodings five double a breakfast.
00:21:46
Speaker 2: Twenty five minutes of seven. Good morning to you if you're joining us for the first time. Will Goodings having a week off, John Edwards in the chair. Before we get to our next guest, Pembo. Should we have a look at a few police homecare texts.
00:21:57
Speaker 4: I like this one from Guy Guy says Dave.
00:22:02
Speaker 3: I had one of those red autograph books too, I had the prized autographs of Don Bradman, Gary Sobers, Clive Loydy and Chapel and all the Australian.
00:22:09
Speaker 4: Cricket teams of the late sixties and seventies.
00:22:11
Speaker 3: I may have brushed past you on the helloed only over as I rushed to get the autograph for the likes of John Holbert, Bob Schum and Rich Schoff and all am I here as I was too young for that golden era, the amazing run of premierships in the sixties. Guy says what simple activities gave us such pleasures in those times? And con In McGill says, hey you five double A. You should mention the FIFA Youth Under twenty World Cup. Currently Australia's playing Italy live now on SBS from Valparaiso in Chile and there's force out Australian kids in the team.
00:22:41
Speaker 4: Good on your con always doing his bit to plug the world game.
00:22:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, incredible. If you'd like to join the conversation, you can do so at any stage eight double two to three double double ow. We've got one hundred dollars Kent Town Hotel vouch you to give away. We'd love to hear your childhood heroes. But let's turn to a pretty concerning story. I think for a lot of farmers out there and the new circulating that feral pigs, pigs that we don't want that are going to cause a significant amount of damage to our environment and our livestock industry being brought illegally into South Australia. And it's really upset a lot of livestock industries and farmers. And Gillian Fennel is the chair of Livestock Essay. Jillian, good morning to you. Tell us what is the big concern.
00:23:23
Speaker 12: Well, morning, guys. The big concern about bringing feral pigs into South Australia is that, for one, they are revolting creatures. I grew up in Queensland where we have a lot of feral pigs and we do not want them in South Australia. They carry disease, they are really destructive to the environment, and they also eat baby land good. So they're just like large aggressive boxes and they will go after your own pets and things as well, So we definitely do not want them in South Australia.
00:23:53
Speaker 4: There be a lot of native wildlife too.
00:23:55
Speaker 12: Don't they Julian, They do they really love to get into birds nests and small fairy creatures and all those sorts of things that people have this conception thanks to Charlotte's Where the pigs, these lovely, beautiful, intelligent creatures and domestic pigs may well be and that is part of the problem with feral pigs, as they are incredibly smart. Yeah, they are also incredibly savage.
00:24:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well they're dangerous to people too, aren't they. Like they're super agro.
00:24:20
Speaker 12: Oh, super agro, especially sours when they've got their pig lips in toe and and you know, I'm assuming that the people who brought them down here put them down here for the purposes of hunting. We have plenty of animals in South Australia that you can hunt if you feel the compulsion to do.
00:24:34
Speaker 9: Though.
00:24:35
Speaker 4: Well, there's a lot of deer down south, down the southeast.
00:24:38
Speaker 3: There's a lot of wild goats as well up in the in the sort of drier parts of the state. So is that so what you what you just said is the suspicion that people sort of covertly brought them into the state hoping to start a population for hunting purposes.
00:24:53
Speaker 12: Well, that's what would be my assumption, seeing as when they were DNA tested they would found to have come from a population in New South Wales. Like pigs do travel, they follow rivers down and those sorts of things. Because occasionally we do have issues with them in the north of the state when the Cooper Creek floods down and they follow that water down and make a little residence there. And this is the thing, you know, just leave these sort of animals alone. We don't need any extra problems in South Australia. We are managing our feral animals as best we possibly can. We don't need another population of a different animal that is so dangerous, so destructive, and so you know, once they get embedded in the community, you will never ever get them out because they are smart, they're really fast to breed. And yeah, it's just like this the rabbits all over again. We don't want them here, No.
00:25:45
Speaker 3: It certainly sounds like we do not. Jillian Fennell, the Chair of Life, I guess thanks for joining us this morning.
00:25:51
Speaker 2: Really concerning, particularly giving what our farmers are going through at the moment. Another really concerning story, I guess is the Jetty Road situation. David. We've covered it quite a lot here on Breakfast where traders are really struggling with the redevelopments that are taking place and it's led to a number of business closures. And Paul Turner from the Loud Cow Bar and Grill, we've spoken to him before. Now he's stepping out not only advocating for assistance for jetty road traders, but businesses in general in regards to I guess how power prices are affecting them and general cost of living is affecting them. Paul, Good, good morning to you, and thank you for your time talk us through your power ese. You're advocating for others an incredible amount of money that you're losing and unfortunately you're unable to continue.
00:26:40
Speaker 13: Yeah, thanks very much for having me back on. Look back in twenty twenty two, we were able to secure quite good power prices.
00:26:50
Speaker 6: There's a lot of.
00:26:52
Speaker 13: Groups out there in the market that will assist small business with getting the best possible deals that.
00:26:57
Speaker 7: Are out there.
00:26:59
Speaker 13: We were able to get a six point eight cents per killer what our price, which was fabulous, and we had that all the way from twenty twenty through to twenty twenty two.
00:27:09
Speaker 7: And if we fast forward.
00:27:10
Speaker 13: To Now, over the course of the last three years, we're now paying fifty seven cents to killer what hour, which is something like a seven hundred and thirty percent increase in our power prices. Now that is not a sustainable thing. So really, you know, we have a serious honesty and consequence problem in South Australia with our government officials where you know, Turbo Tom came out in response to the article saying our prices have gone down. Well, I can tell him today seven hundred and thirty percent increase since twenty twenty two for us?
00:27:50
Speaker 3: Was it sort of like a bit of a conflagration of everything that possibly could go wrong did go wrong with you, Paul, because you know, the power prices is one part of it, but the other part you're sort of stuck there. And I was down at Jenny Road myself the other night, down the other end, down the tram Jenny Road, Brighton Road rather end where it looks like the street redesign has actually finally finished there. But you're still in the thick of it, Dan, your end, aren't you? Down the Collie Reserve Reserve end?
00:28:21
Speaker 13: Yeah, that's right. So power prices is one of the factors obviously, but the you know, the Jeni Road upgrade, as you say down the Brighton Road side is fairly fairly complete where we just got another email from council a couple of days ago, same as last time, now telling us that the entire rest of Jenny Road is going to be ripped up in the next couple of days, so during the middle of school holidays from Patras Street all the way to the beach is going to be closed off.
00:28:52
Speaker 3: Have that you been given any indication of when this is going to finish, because it's been going on for months and months.
00:28:57
Speaker 13: Well, the last we heard was the twenty nine ninth of December. They're going to finish I guess the vast majority of the work where they have it today, but from the twenty ninth of December onwards through to late March, they're going to do the Mosley Square area. So all those retailers that are in Mosley Square, they're all losing their outdoor dining at something like twenty to thirty percent of their seating capacity, they're losing it and going permanently. All of the zebos and undercover stuff's all going is going to get knocked down. So during peak period Christmas New Years, they won't be able to trade the way that they have traded ever before.
00:29:43
Speaker 3: So for your business now, Paul Loud, Loud, cow bar and grew, is that it? Is it the end of the line. Have you already finished or are you finishing up in a few days?
00:29:52
Speaker 4: What's the goal?
00:29:52
Speaker 13: Well, look, we've stopped trading, but we're just trying to see what we can work out with you know, christ and the property. It'll be fantastic when it's all done. Don't get me wrong with all everyone wants the refreshing in glenel The problem is the manner and the way that they've been doing it. And you know they're working between ten and three every day Monday to Friday. There's nothing happening on weekend. There's nothing happening at nighttime.
00:30:18
Speaker 3: No, well, every time i've been down there, the adjunct to the fact that it looks like a total bomb site if no one's doing anything.
00:30:26
Speaker 4: So yeah, good on your turn.
00:30:29
Speaker 3: Unfortunate set of circumstances there for him, which I say that by way of understatement.
00:30:35
Speaker 2: Saying let's continue with our calls. So from Christie's Beach, your childhood hero, good morning to you.
00:30:40
Speaker 14: Good morning. How are you. I'm a bit out of my comfort zone at the moment because I usually text, so bear with me. And when I was about eleven, so we're going over fifty years ago, we used to go to the Wave We'll tropped every Friday night. My dad had take my sister's and I oh yeah. And back in those days it was quite acceptable for your father to just leave you up there. Wally went and put his best on. This was just before the Beaumont kids.
00:31:10
Speaker 4: Not after.
00:31:11
Speaker 14: So so sorry, I'm nervous.
00:31:15
Speaker 4: I know you're good to you.
00:31:17
Speaker 14: They used to have dotted all around the arena there. They used to have forty four gallon drums with fires in them. And so I sidled up to wonder warm up and they stand in their largest life, the great Barry Roberin. Yes, he was so humble and nice and shy and lovely. And I've still got his autograph.
00:31:38
Speaker 2: Oh good, What a great experience if you have a childhood Here at eight double two three, doublow the number to ring police and weather after the break But before we get to them, let's check traffic.
00:31:48
Speaker 1: David Penberthie and Will Goodings five double a breakfast thirteen.
00:31:53
Speaker 2: Minutes to seven. A big story this week is the weather. It's warming. Jenny Horvat is at the bureau. Jenny, good morning to you. So it's looking like a pearl of this morning, but this afternoon and not so much.
00:32:05
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:32:05
Speaker 15: Look, it's a bit of a mixed bag this week, and even even just in the day, so I'm pretty warm. Overnight we saw that minimum temperature about eleven point seven. That happened to stuff to midnight. Currently there is sixteen point eight degrees at the West Terrace night a pair of observation site. We are aiming for top temperature twenty five for the city, twenty six for the northern suburbs, twenty three along the coast, twenty four for Mount Barker. But we do have a bit of a change moving through later in the days. Initially we've got this northerly airstream keeping those temperatures pretty warm. We'll start to see some high cloud ahead of that change moving through during the course of the day, probably not expecting too much out of that, but as we head towards this evening, when that system sort of comes through and those winds turn a bit more southwesterly, we might start to see a little bit more shower activity coming through, a little bit of a cooler day for Tuesday in the wake of that front. Back's down to around seventeen degrees again, minimum temperature around eleven degrees, and we could still be seeing little bit of showers hit and miss on the Tuesday there, more likely around the hills and southern suburbs, but a little bit intermittent with there. I guess I should also mention with these systems coming through, there is the chance of that thunderstorm activity as we head into the later part of the day and tomorrow again around sort of more the hills and southern suburbs through there, but as we roll on into Wednesday, that thunderstorm decreases temperature back up to maybe around nineteen degrees, and again with those showers, we've got another front coming through, so probably maybe a little bit hit and miss during the day, but more likely as we head to the evening as that front comes through on Thursday, maybe some showers to start the day, but it really should start to ease back as we head into the afternoon period through there, looking pretty dry as we head into Friday, nineteen degrees and they're a little bit of a warmth to start the long weekend. They're twenty six on the Saturday, maybe twenty eight on a Sunday, and if we do manage to pull that, that'll be our warmest day since April. So we'll see how we go with that good stuff.
00:34:01
Speaker 4: Jenny, Thank you, Jenny.
00:34:02
Speaker 2: All right, let's head to SAP. I'll send you Comesta. Matt Hale is on duty busy night from Ergency Services. Matt, we'll kick it off with an abandoned car fire at Christie's downs Yes.
00:34:12
Speaker 16: Good morning. So just before last sorry before midnight last night, police and MFS were called to Finnian Road in Christy Downes following the reports of an abandoned car fire in the car park of a unit complex. On arrival of fire had already began to spread the two other cars of the residents there. The Blazer was quickly brought under control. However, they abandoned Fordslams completely destroyed and the unfortunately the two other nearby cars were significantly damaged. And we're asking people to call in or contact crime Stoppers online Crimestoppers essay dot com dot au if they've got any information or CCTV dash camp footage or anything like that contact us.
00:34:51
Speaker 4: Matt. Also, there's another fire at this time at a restaurant in.
00:34:55
Speaker 16: Form Yes, and we don't believe this one is related to Operation Eclipse. However, we are investigating as a suspicious fire. Emergency Services responded to reports of the far on Topley's Hill Road, Fulham at a restaurant just before three point thirty last night. Inside it looks like somebody's broken into that property and then started the fire inside the interior of that restaurant system damage. However, thankfully firefighters were able to prevent the spread of the fire to neighboring businesses. Western districts. CIB detectives and far Cause investigations will attend that scene this morning and try and uncover a bit more about it.
00:35:33
Speaker 3: There's no suggestion that all very early, but there's been a couple of fires in the Western restaurant fires in the Western suburbs. There's no possibility that there's a link.
00:35:42
Speaker 7: Is there.
00:35:44
Speaker 16: I couldn't really comment on that at the moment. There are some that obviously have been up Eclipse and related to the legal steale of tobacco, and this one doesn't look like it's related Yeah.
00:35:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, and finally a massive search under why in the mid North for a four year old boy. Matt, what's the lightest?
00:36:00
Speaker 16: Yeah, this is really gut wrenching stuff. But a little Gus is a four year old boy and he looks like he's wandered off from the property sometime around five o'clock on Saturday night, and that rural property that's forty k's south of Janda. Little Gus is got long blonde, curly hair, who's wearing a gray sun hat and a blue T shirt and long pants and boots. And police are really working hard here to try to locate little Gus. We've had your mid police up there looking for him. We've had pool air up day and night with an infrared camera and fortunately we haven't been able to find him as yet. We've even had Sees volunteers weigh in and to help us using trail bikes, ATVs and drones just searching everywhere we can for Gus. And today we'll have water ups and mounted operations. The assist in that ground search just really challenging. And I guess the message that we'd really like to send is just to think goes volunteers. I'm sure they're tired and it's really challenging for them mentally, but we just want to say thank you to them and also just our thoughts are really with that family during incredibly challenging tone.
00:37:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, really concerning stuff. We hope there is an outcome. We will have the Deputy Commissioner, Linda Williams on a little bit later, so maybe she might be able to give us a bit more of an update on how that's all going. I did speak to the Young to pub last night and they said their accommodation chocolate block full of emergency services. So they're throwing the kitchen sink at this trying to locate this young Mountain.
00:37:31
Speaker 4: Terrifying for the parents.
00:37:33
Speaker 2: Absolutely also making news for a bit of a traffic update, we've just had a few texts in about the Sudden Expressway, a vehicle rollover near Major's Road, So if you're stuck in that, if you see or hear anything, do give us a call eight double two three double O double low. But David, we do turn to some happy news and over the last few weeks we've been able to give away a magnificent prize tickets to the AFL Grand Final. Now the answer to this quiz or these clue to choose who the player was was kept under lock and Kate, you weren't allowed to know, David, I wasn't allowed to know. Only the boss knew. And it was for a very good reason because it was a huge prize and we're lucky enough to be joined by our winners, Emily and Kim from Para Louie. Oh guys, are you hungover? Are you still coming down? How was it? Tell us?
00:38:21
Speaker 17: Yeah, well, a little bit hungover because I had to have a drink to get on the plane. I don't like flying, so yes, I had the drink on the way home.
00:38:31
Speaker 4: So what was the was like at the game?
00:38:33
Speaker 3: Though?
00:38:33
Speaker 4: It must have been so much fun?
00:38:35
Speaker 8: It was really good, really good.
00:38:38
Speaker 3: So the second voice there, that's Kim, Kim Emily's mum, And were you a first time Grand Final attendee as well?
00:38:44
Speaker 4: Kim?
00:38:45
Speaker 18: I was, And I was just telling Emily that I've been trying for ten years to get wing Grand Final tickets from five double A.
00:38:54
Speaker 17: Oh really, she had close in the running two nearly every year and she does it the first time and gets it.
00:39:01
Speaker 4: Oh well, beginner's luck.
00:39:04
Speaker 3: Did you get a bit emotional at the start of the game when they sing the anthem.
00:39:07
Speaker 4: It's pretty full on, isn't it.
00:39:10
Speaker 19: It is?
00:39:10
Speaker 17: And the thing that got me was the one hundred thousand choir. Every time a goal was kicked, the player song would play and the whole crowd would sing this song. You couldn't you couldn't hear.
00:39:23
Speaker 20: It on the speakers.
00:39:24
Speaker 17: You could hear the crowd, and then the song would stop, the ball would go back to the middle and bounce out, and the crowd was still singing that song every time. It's amazing.
00:39:32
Speaker 4: Were you barracking for Brisbane?
00:39:36
Speaker 17: Well, I think we were both barracking for both.
00:39:38
Speaker 3: Really.
00:39:39
Speaker 17: Every time someone kicked a goal we would get up and clasp and yeah, it was very strange walking in without the nerves of your own team playing. It was I think it was good to have that grand, violent experience without the passion and the.
00:39:53
Speaker 19: Nerves as well.
00:39:54
Speaker 2: What did you make of the performance by Snoop Dog. We've been asking people. I think a lot of people were converted fans the Snoop What did you think?
00:40:03
Speaker 17: Yeah, I thought it was good. Like all the songs that he sang, I played on the radio, and he played the radio version two.
00:40:11
Speaker 2: I thought it was good magnificent. Well, well, well done, Emily, Weld done, Kim, you played very well. It was a tough contest to win. So I'm sure you'll be locked and loaded to go again next year if there's an opportunity.
00:40:23
Speaker 17: Oh, definitely, absolutely, Mum, well, I won't be allowed.
00:40:26
Speaker 8: To go in.
00:40:28
Speaker 2: Good magnifican Hey David, breaking overnight. We mentioned it a little bit earlier, but a truly horrific story breaking out of the US and at least two people have been killed and several others have been injured after a shooter targeted a Mormon church in Michigan. For the very Latest, Rob Scott joins us in the US. Rob, good Ugh, good morning to you. Tell us what's the very latest?
00:40:51
Speaker 19: Yeah, good morning guys. Police have just held another press conference confirming that they have now identified this shooter as a forty year old and from Michigan by the name of Thomas Jacob Sanford. And as you say, two people confirmed dead at this stage and another eight in hospital. We believe that there are children among them. The gunman is also dead, so three dead in total. And what's happened here is this forty year old man has driven his truck through the side of this Mormon church in a small township outside of Flint, Michigan. There were a couple of hundred people inside this church for regular Sunday morning services when he is driven into it. He's stormed inside armed with an assault rifle and begun shooting into the congregation, and then this huge fire has erupted at exactly the same time. Police believe that the gunman actually set that fire, possibly to trap people inside. So while he's shooting at people in the congregation, two local law enforcement offices were on the scene pretty quickly. They engaged in a shootout with this individual. They killed him, but police now stay over and above the two people confirmed dead over gunshot wounds. They are expecting more victims in the hours ahead, and that is primarily because of this fire. They say that there were so many people inside that were unlikely to have been able to escape, so they are expecting to find more people de ceased once they get a chance to go through what's left of the building. And I've got to say there's not much left. That the fire was absolutely huge. So another targeted attack by the looks of it, on a place of worship here in the United States. Just a horrendous scene unfolding as we speak.
00:42:36
Speaker 3: The President has written on truth, social pray for the victims and their families, and then in all caps, this epidemic of violence in our country must end immediately. Do you think, rob based on what police are saying at this early stage, that this does look like ahead a political element to it.
00:42:55
Speaker 19: Hard to stay at this stage, and police haven't been drawn on that either. They are in the really early stages of this investigation. They have gone to this guy's house. The bomb squad is there, and they say that out of an abundance of caution, they've sent in all the robots or the heavy machinery because they found three improvised explosive devices in his truck at the church, and his property has a lot of outbuilding, so they're sending in these large bomb proof vehicles with battering rams on the front to try to knock over this building if there's anything inside there. But in terms of a motive, they haven't been able to establish that just yet. But they were able to identify this guy pretty quickly. I suppose that's probably due to him either leaving his registration in his car or some id on him, but they were able to track down his house and get there pretty quickly. We've had two press conferences so far, no indication of a motive yet. We're having another press conference in about two and a half hours time, so hopefully by then we know a bit more whether there's some sort of manifesto left, which is often the case with these people who embark on his mass shootings.
00:43:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, Rob Scott, amazing report from Michigan there for Channel seven in the US Bureau prepminence of guns as well might seem to be an issue and one that that country used determined not to address.
00:44:10
Speaker 2: Certainly, five double A News time after we're going to speak to Chris Burns from the Hut Street Center. A bit of a dispute going on between the Hut Street Center and homeless services and the city council that are appearing to clear up the parklands throw sleeping bags tents which the Hut Street Center are regularly providing, thrying them out, leaving these people with nothing. We'll pull that apart much more. Stick around five double A News.
00:44:33
Speaker 1: Now, David Penberthy and Will Goodings, five double A Breakfast.
00:44:37
Speaker 2: Eight minutes past seven Good morning to you if you're joining us for the first time. An absolutely beautiful day outside currently seventeen degrees in the city. Big show on the way. Will Goodings having the week off, spending some time with his family, Well deserved, David. We suddenly get some texts in regards to this praying on the Southeastern Freeway. We've got some vision on the live stream. You can see this car that's rolled over causing a significant amount of delays on the Sudden Expressway.
00:45:05
Speaker 3: How do you do that on the Southern Expressway. Seriously, he's three two lanes like the whole stretch along. It's terrible, but criky, I.
00:45:12
Speaker 2: Hope someone's told me you can't park there.
00:45:14
Speaker 4: No, that's terrible.
00:45:15
Speaker 2: But something also making news today is a suspicious fire at Fulham. Now most of us would know this place as Panini Brothers. Hayden Nelson is there for seven years and sunrise Hayden, Good morning to you. What do we know so far?
00:45:30
Speaker 20: Yeah, morning, John, morning Dave. So we know that at just before four o'clock this morning, this dowage shop, Pini Cartel, went up in flames. It was a resident who was across the road who saw flickering light as she heard a bang, saw some flickering light coming from the Panditi shop. She called Triple zero. Fire fighters were here in a matter of minutes, coming from Brooklyn Park and they were able to get on top of this fire incredibly quickie quickly, which is lucky because next.
00:45:58
Speaker 7: Door there is a.
00:45:59
Speaker 20: Moa shop, a steel shop, and then on the other side of that there is a pool shop which in both their storerooms bill and chemicals. You can imagine if the fire spread to those shops, which are in really close proximity, it could have been pretty disastrous here, but still very distressing for the owners and customers who would normally be at this Canini shop in the morning buying coffees, buying sandwiches. Because we don't know how long this shop will be closed for. There's about fifty thousand dollars worth of damage inside and it's now a prime stceners.
00:46:28
Speaker 7: Police try to.
00:46:29
Speaker 20: Drill down to the bottom of the course of this blaze, so they haven't caught a suspect yet. It does appear that someone has actually broken in through the front door, started this fire and fled before emergency services arrived here. But that's certainly what police are looking into this morning to try and catch up with this suspect.
00:46:46
Speaker 3: How extensive would you say the damage is, Hayden, has it all the shop's been gutted?
00:46:51
Speaker 20: Certainly? Yeah, certainly, all their Samwich make equipments destroyed, chairs and tables are destroyed. You can see that there's a huge all through the front window where these suspects have broken in. But incredibly, as I said, there is two neighboring businesses that haven't even had any smoke damage. And really what comes down to is that vigilant neighbor who is able to call the Triple zero and get the phiracy really quickly.
00:47:15
Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, Yah, good stuff.
00:47:17
Speaker 2: Good on you, Hayden Nelson. There for seven sunrise plenty happening. Also in terms of the Adelaide CBD now, David, I'm sure you would have seen it. A lot of our listeners would have sent it. The increasing number of homeless people living in the parklands. Unfortunately, it's not going anywhere. It's an issue that's only getting worse. But a bit of a stink has occurred between the City Council and the Hut Street Center. The Hut Street Center that we support so regularly they're concerned of the way the council are basically cleaning up homeless people's gear, their only possessions really and throwing them out, destroying them, leaving them with nothing. And you've got to remember a lot of the time that the equipment that they're getting is from the Hut Street Center, is from Catherine House, it's from homeless services trying to provide to them. To tell us more, Chris Burns is the CEO of the Hot Street Center. Chris, good morning to you. Tell us how's this playing out. What's the big concern.
00:48:10
Speaker 21: Morning, Johnny David. Yeah, Look, these people are forced they have to live in the Parklands. They haven't got anywhere else to live. They live in the Parklands because it's close to the services like ours, but also the free public transport. They come to us at a very low point in their life and ask can you give me a sleeping bag? Can you give me a ten so at least I've got something in my head at night. And then on a regular basis, the council it comes and takes those tents away, leave it leaves it a notice and then takes the tent away. But unfortunately it's what's in that tent that really is is heartbreaking. Have memorability from their life, so I'll have their prescription for their describe drugs, and they have to start all over again once it's taken away and they come back to us, and so can you give me another tent? Can you give me another sleeping beg? So it's a really hard thing for these people, and it's just another tick. And he goes.
00:49:12
Speaker 3: It's a complicated thing, isn't it, Chris, Because I suppose you don't want it to get to the point where one tent becomes two tents, becomes three tents. The next thing you know, you've got like a whole community of people living there. Has happened on Greenhill Road a few years ago. But at the same time, like you know, when when when people are staying intermittently in the parkland, and I know that from driving in through the south side every morning, like you often see a tent there for two days, three days, but then it goes away while people are trying to find accommodation, like it does seem pulling out a prop from underneath them at a time when they're at their most vulnerable.
00:49:52
Speaker 21: And that's exactly right, David's and it does tend to be intimate, and you know, we try to support them and and be in a situation where they don't have to live in that situation. But you're going to go back to the cause, and the cause of it is across to living crisis and housing crisis. The houses are there, why can't we get them into those houses or into that accommodation. If you look the CBD of Adelaide, there's ten thousand private residents. Two thousand of them are empty. Why can't we free those placed ups so people don't.
00:50:28
Speaker 4: Have to live in Well, yeah, good point, Chris.
00:50:30
Speaker 2: Can I ask about the Western Parklands. We know the city Council have designated a place in previous months and years for people to gather who are homeless, and it provides the opportunity for them to receive treatment, to receive medical checkups, to receive updates on potentially some support. It's my mi understating the council wasn't really keen to continue with that. Do you think that that was working as a bit of a scheme to assist these people potentially in receiving these services and taking them away from homelessness.
00:51:02
Speaker 21: Well, it absolutely does work because it's a place where they are supported and we would go out and do barbecues and support them. But it is when it's out there at Edwards Park on the way to Anzac Highway, that's a bit isolated for our clients. But a critical thing is the free public transport around the city. That's how they get to their medical appointments, that's how they apply for jobs, that's how they go to the housing appointments. And the problem is that Edwards Park is it is just a bit isolated. That's why they tend to come closer to the city to where the services are like ours and West Care with more square and to the other services they need to access during the day.
00:51:46
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Chris, I don't know.
00:51:49
Speaker 3: I just say I don't think the council is acting on behalf of some mass community outrage at the fact that some Paul bugger is spending seventy two hours in a tent on the side of Sir Lewis Coohend chat A little bit more heart I reckon.
00:52:04
Speaker 21: Today. But it's been a pretty rough winter.
00:52:06
Speaker 4: Yeah, totally.
00:52:07
Speaker 21: I'd hate to be out there in the tent.
00:52:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly, Chris Chris Burns, the CEO of the Hut Street Center. We appreciate your time this morning, really concerning something also that's making news today. And you may think of what is the center of a country town. Generally it's the pub. Everyone meets at the pub. It is the community center over a few frothies potentially, well, our regional pubs are struggling. As we know, a lot of farmers are living through drought at the moment and they're not making the I guess the turnover they need to thrive and survive. And I'm sure for a lot of coastal towns as well. The algal bloom only adding to these stresses. Rebecca Day is a public and at the Tiger Hotel and Tantanola in the state's southeast. Rebecca, good morning to you. Tell us what's your situation.
00:52:52
Speaker 22: Good morning. Yeah, situation was starting to look a bit a big grim last weekend. I was debating as to whether you were a Facebook post to you know, please come for a meal or a drink, and I took all my guts and I did that post, and yeah, otherwise we probably wouldn't be open even by the end of the next month. We might have had to have closed. Yeah, it's got very quiet over winter, very quiet.
00:53:18
Speaker 3: And Rebecca, do you think it is Is it as straightforward a thing as being linked to the drought? I mean, if farmers are making less money there's less rain, less crops. Is it just purely a sort of disposable income issue, you think, oh.
00:53:33
Speaker 22: That's that probably is part of it. But apparently it's been our quiet. It's been the colder sorry, the cold of winter up here in the last few years, so that hasn't helped an you know, who wants to drag their kids out in the cold weather and come out for dinner as well sort of thing. But yeah, it has got a lot to do with the farmers and that they're they're struggling, they're pulling extra hours throughout the day as well, and then it all trickles downhill from there, really.
00:53:59
Speaker 4: Doesn't do you guys do a combination as well?
00:54:03
Speaker 22: No, Unfortunately we don't have any accommodation. We do have the free canding across the road which you can put up in and park.
00:54:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe we need to come up with some sort of in the same way we've got those trip vouchers for areas that have been affected by the algill Blue maybe need some sort of campaign to get city folks to you know, jump in the cargo for a long drive and head to tangent Alla for a beer and a schnitty.
00:54:30
Speaker 2: Yes, nothing better than a country pub. Good on your Rebecca day.
00:54:34
Speaker 4: I totally agree with that.
00:54:35
Speaker 2: There's something about them, you know what. Let's put it out to our callers, David eight, double two three, double O, double O the best country pubs in South Australian. What would yours be, David?
00:54:46
Speaker 3: Well, Actually, unpatriotically, the first one that comes to mind for me is in the River Ana, Oh, not too far from SA, but it's called the Canago Pub.
00:54:55
Speaker 4: Right. It is just like this oasis.
00:54:58
Speaker 3: Of awesomeness in the middle of what's it's known as the mi Ia, the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area. I think that's near closer to Denny, sort of demiloquent way, but it's just in the middle of this that great flat hay plane where you could get the world's largest spirit level and lay it down and the bubble wouldn't move. It just arises out of the nothingness and you go in there and it's just everything about it.
00:55:25
Speaker 4: The decore, the people. It's beautiful, yeah yeah, yeah yeah. And it's so different from a city pub.
00:55:33
Speaker 3: It's twilight the sidebar at the Goody Tavern because you walk into that sport bar then you feel like you could be in, like, you know, the middle of nowhere.
00:55:40
Speaker 4: Just it's got that country feel.
00:55:42
Speaker 3: And part of it, I think is the that great aesthetic of those hydraulic handles on the wooden doors with the frosted glass, like that old nineteen fifties look. There's something about it that's sort of, you know, a moment in time for me.
00:55:59
Speaker 2: Poor Victoria Park, magnificent pub, Old Meatray. Every Friday night, people come from everywhere. The carpet smells. That's what you need in a pub, the smelly carpet, the gaming room tradition. I like it. Eight double two three double O. If you want to share your favorite pub, a country pub in South Australia, we'll give him a free plug, we'll promote him and we'll do much more. Stephen Rowe coming up after this. He's back from holidays. He's off the top turn buckle. We'll see what he thought of the AFL Grand Final.
00:56:30
Speaker 1: David Penberthy and Will Goodings five double a breakfast, Stephen right on five double a breakfast.
00:56:43
Speaker 2: Brow he's back from holidays. He's all fired, Stephen Rowe.
00:56:46
Speaker 23: Good morning to you, Oh Pembo and Johno.
00:56:49
Speaker 3: Great to be back.
00:56:50
Speaker 23: I had a great break broom to day when through the Kimberley's truly God's country. Everybody needs to do that. Fished every day. One more day in that boat and I would have been back on a pine box.
00:57:01
Speaker 4: This we were a part of a significant birthday, wasn't it rightly?
00:57:04
Speaker 23: Oh well, it's my sixtieth, so the family, the family went away, my mom and dad. Dad's eighty five Marms eighty two still outfish me but my birthday is not till November. But this was this cruise liner only ever done. This is only going to do it once, and it was just a once in a lifetime. I've always wanted to do the Kimberleys. It is truly God's country. The indigenous art work, the history of it, the view, it's just eye candy every day. If you haven't seen or heard of Montgomery Reef, google it, have a look at it. And this is off our coastline. We travel the world to Rome, I guess to see the Vatican City and Michaelangelo's art work, our indigenous art works over seventeen thousand years old.
00:57:46
Speaker 4: It is it's.
00:57:47
Speaker 23: Emotional and it's there and it's us and it's our history. And a fish every day, Oh my god, I was going.
00:57:54
Speaker 3: To say that as a fisher, as somebody who loves fishing. What about like in Broom, like even the town Jeddi is eight meters every day all the way up.
00:58:03
Speaker 23: Yeah, it didn't matter where I dropped the line. Something was on the end of it. Look, I didn't catch a barrett, but a two and a half meter bull shark. Wish you had a shotgun to shoot its head off. It just ate every damn fish we had. But anyway, I'm still a little bit anyway, let's get into the footy. What can I take that back? I'm a naturalist. Now I've changed. I've changed.
00:58:24
Speaker 3: You're a naturalist or a naturalist because it's a very important difference.
00:58:27
Speaker 4: Mate. Yeah the other one.
00:58:29
Speaker 23: What a what a pearl of a Grand Final up to half time. If you're a Lion supporter, you'd be so proud of your team. It was a real arm wrest were locked away and then the Lions kicked eleven of the next twelve goals. I think it was from the four minute mark left in the third quarter, of the four minute mark left in the fourth quarter eleven to one goals. Their senior players, Charlie Cameron, Harrison, andrews Orco they all stood up and then it was good night Geelong. But that was a look. Look, I know Geelong supporters will be upset, but God, you've got to tip your lid at Brisbane. I just know how to win.
00:59:01
Speaker 3: Well, I think what you said, mate, Like all the old players stood up, but all the kids played out of this kid as well. So they looks like they're going to be like scarily good for a while, don't you think.
00:59:12
Speaker 23: Oh absolutely, will Ashcroft's second lum Smith Militaries only he's played less than sixty games. Lockie Neil Willie won't he will? He did and he come on. His third quarter was outstanding. He had nineteen for the game, kick that magnificent goal. They just had winners everywhere and after halftime you could just see, you know, even Paddy Dansfield, they knew they were up against it. Hey, what did you think of Snoop Dear the Big Doll.
00:59:35
Speaker 4: I liked him. I thought he was really good. Okay, I enjoyed it.
00:59:38
Speaker 3: And we're saying at the start of the show it had a bit of a gave the It gave the graddy a bit of a super Bowl he sort of feel the dancing and everything. At the start, I thought it did.
00:59:48
Speaker 23: Look it wasn't the best for me, but it certainly wasn't the worst. There's no doubt he's a showman. He's world class. It was that typical razzle dazzle American I don't know, preppy college footy entertainment and on really not into that, you know, dancing girls red white and blue and all that, you know, kicking their legs up, playing trumpets when they're not even being in drums and symbols. Give me a spell.
01:00:09
Speaker 3: The bit I don't understand, though, is in a world where everyone who smokes cigarettes wouldn't dream of lighting up anywhere in public. I mean, crikey, Joseph Zunku got fined for smoking down the side of Galla Place, the wonderful Italian Taylor who's been there for thirty eight years. How does Snoop Dogg get away with walking around everywhere he goes in Melbourne with a giant ete paper joint hanging out of his mouth.
01:00:37
Speaker 4: How do you get away with that?
01:00:39
Speaker 23: That's the hypocrisy.
01:00:41
Speaker 4: He's the dog man, He's the d L double G doll.
01:00:44
Speaker 3: Imagine if you walked into the MCG with a giant spliff in your gob?
01:00:48
Speaker 4: How long did you laugh?
01:00:51
Speaker 23: And we're laughing? I thought everything was illegal in Victoria now, god, yeah, I agree that one.
01:00:57
Speaker 4: Standard it is, Hey, before I.
01:01:00
Speaker 23: Can we get Christian Petrarca?
01:01:03
Speaker 4: I don't know you'd know better than me?
01:01:04
Speaker 23: Mate, Oh my god, mate, you get him? I think klamar Cheese had done. They're looking at George Stevens, who's a twenty year old midfielder. Gee, if they could get Petraca, that's just exactly what they need. Big off, hey, but big loss. While I was way down in Burgers Yeah, yeah, do.
01:01:20
Speaker 2: You think he's the key to Petraca though?
01:01:22
Speaker 23: ROWI I think he was, well, boy, wouldn't he go?
01:01:26
Speaker 4: Rowie.
01:01:26
Speaker 3: The thing you missed when you're away was the Sturt Football Club winning the Sana Phil Premiership and an optimistic lesson for Crow's supporters straight sets exit from the finals in twenty twenty four under the excellent leadership of Marty Mattner. Premier Is twenty twenty five.
01:01:44
Speaker 23: Yeah, that tip not led to him. What a season they had, outstanding mate.
01:01:50
Speaker 3: Well know, I'm happy you're playing against the Bays the Norward because your boys they were coming home with a wet sale this season. They had a brilliant back half of the year and if they got over the Bays it could have been a slightly more troubling watch last Sunday's Grand Final.
01:02:05
Speaker 23: Well, downder stir it's great to be back, beautiful weather, love Adelaide. You know what, there's far better places to visit in the world that there's no better place to come home to like Edlaide. So I'll see you it for.
01:02:16
Speaker 2: On your ROWI and the team back at four this afternoon before we head to the news, John from Lobethoughs called in on his favorite country pub. John, Good morning to.
01:02:23
Speaker 24: You, Good morning boys, Good morning Pembo.
01:02:26
Speaker 7: How are you mate?
01:02:27
Speaker 8: Good?
01:02:27
Speaker 4: Thank you John? How's it going mate?
01:02:29
Speaker 24: Yeah, good mate, just getting ready to police remember his day, mate, but just quickly. Best country pub got to be the Takawi Hotel, just north of Jamestown. Mate got restored seven dollar pints. It's just a cracker pub Takawie hotel and I think the population is only about ten there at the moment. Yeah, excellent, I've be in the mid North mate. Thanks boys.
01:02:50
Speaker 2: John joined the conversation eight double two to three double O double ow News time now back with.
01:02:54
Speaker 1: More David Penberthy and Will Gooding's five double a breakfast twenty three minutes.
01:03:00
Speaker 2: Good morning too. If you're joining us for the first time. Will Gooddings having a week off with his family, well deserve big show. Still continuing, the Deputy Commissioner of South Australian Police set to join us to discuss well, what was a pretty significant weekend and shopping centers with a number of people arrested with weapons following the introduction of wanding or metal detecting.
01:03:21
Speaker 4: Data, known hotbed of criminality Burnside Village. Who would have thought they.
01:03:25
Speaker 3: Seized three knives? One was a sashimi knife, one was a lagueal knife for the Brillon Camon there and the other one was a Palmersan knife.
01:03:34
Speaker 4: I think.
01:03:36
Speaker 2: Cynicism, well something you'll also need a knife for this half hour, David, is it's returning, It's very exciting because it means this.
01:03:48
Speaker 4: I thought were deleted, this file.
01:03:51
Speaker 3: And another thing I've been wondering lately. Ho, Baby, would you like some che gees speak?
01:04:03
Speaker 4: Maybe camin bad blossom. Let baby turn it down, blesso calm.
01:04:09
Speaker 2: I think Dave Faulkner and the gurus will be proud.
01:04:12
Speaker 4: David very online too.
01:04:15
Speaker 3: Dave Faulkner's ringing in the complain both of the breach of intellectual property and more importantly, how bloody terrible it sounds in the news is Yes, Cheese Fest is back, and that's why we're giving away cheese we love.
01:04:29
Speaker 2: If you'd like to be a part of What's My Cheese? Get ready lines available eight double two three double o double Oh. We'll do that after the break, of course, David. First day of school, holidays. Plenty of people busy out and about. The weather looking absolutely phenomenal right now, top of twenty five degrees currently eighteen point five degrees in the city. The big story this week twenty eight degrees on Sunday. It's going to be an absolute pearler. But let's turn to some more news that broke yesterday, and it's the change to speed limits on Main arterial roads near schools. Now, you'd all remember the truly horrific circumstance that took place at the front of Marialta So Marritonville High School, truly horrific. The government doing whatever they can to try and correct that situation. And further still with the announcement that near these main roads, you know, some of our big schools at Port Rush Road, et cetera, are going to be lowered to forty kilometers an hour, and the new Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Emily Burke, joins us. Now, Emily, good morning to you. Tell us the introduction of this When can we expect it to take place?
01:05:33
Speaker 8: Thanks, good morning and thanks having me. Yes, there'll be a number of schools that we'll start with, and that one that you just mentioned, Marroyville High School, Gulbert Primary School and Saint Thomas School. They would start in early November, and then there will be some rolling works that will go out and up to about thirty locations will be rolled out between November and December of this year, and then a further amount of locations get rolled out, so up to about one hundred and fifty locations in total by next year.
01:06:06
Speaker 3: Can I just make one point mini stick? Can we get a bit of consistency around this? Because so I know goodwood like the back of my mand because I live down the road. So until a few years ago it was sixty along there. Now it's fifty, and so now it's going to be forty. Is it going to be forty all the time? Or is it just going to be forty on school days?
01:06:27
Speaker 8: Yeah, so just be forty on school hours in the morning and in the afternoon, so between a am and nine point thirty and two pm and four pm. So it's really just in those times when we know, like we're saying just earlier, it's a busy time in the morning, particularly when we.
01:06:43
Speaker 4: Get, we get, we get, we get all that.
01:06:44
Speaker 3: We know it's busy, it's busy because we've all got kids that we've been kids.
01:06:48
Speaker 4: We know that.
01:06:50
Speaker 3: How how do we know what speed is going to be? Are they going to be dynamic signs that change to tell people that it's not fifty but forty? Because is at seven thirty am or at tato one am? How's it going to be telegraphed to the motor So I.
01:07:07
Speaker 8: Guess you would see sometimes now when you go into a school zone, there is you know, forty k is ahead or twenty five k's ahead. So there'll be those signs that are located just before the zone starts, and then once you get hit the zone, it will say this is now forty K zone between these hours and have the hours listed underneath, and when you exit the same thing.
01:07:29
Speaker 4: But on Saturday it's fifty Yeah, well if it's.
01:07:32
Speaker 8: A fifty K street, it will be fifty right.
01:07:35
Speaker 2: Are we're going to see potentially, how's this going to be enforced A We're going to see speed cameras and we're going to see police there initially. Is there going to be able to leeway for people that might make the mistake or might not be completely aware of what's going on.
01:07:48
Speaker 8: It will be a bit of a combination of what you've just said. So the police are supportive of monitoring this. The RIA has come out also in support of this move. So there'll be some eliminated signs, those ones that flash and they now going into a different speed zone. There will be safety cameras located at some sites. It will really just depend on the high frequency of those roads and will be able to monitor and collect the data and how this is working. We know in Victoria when this is brought in. Just to make the point, also, we're the last state to do this. We're finally bringing our state and the safety of our students and children in line with the rest of the country. But when they did bring us in Victoria, they did find that it had a big change and driver behavior. So they saw a really big drop in speeding and running red lights near school zones when they did bring this in.
01:08:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, certainly nothing I said before was trying to downplay the safety aspect. We're all totally supportive of the most vulnerable members of the community, i e.
01:08:52
Speaker 4: Children being safe.
01:08:53
Speaker 3: We just think that the need to fully explain and alert motorous to what's expected of them. I mean, one other thing I noticed coming into work this morning, and I'm not sure again in now wonderfully over governed country, if this is you or if it's the city council's job, But is it now fifty fifty k's an hour on every road into town because the road I normally come down was sixty until recently, and now it's now it's fifty. That is that your area or is that a Jane lo Max Smith seeing Minister Burke.
01:09:27
Speaker 8: Well, it just depends on which road you're talking about. I'm happy, happy to look into that for you. I've been the job just for a week now, trying to.
01:09:37
Speaker 4: Work out which roads you're responsible.
01:09:38
Speaker 8: For, which fifty k I'm responsible for, so depending which road are traveling. And I can appreciate frustration in regards with changes, but also we have to take into consideration, as you said earlier, this is really just about increasing safety. We know it's worked in other states. We know we're behind here. We're actually the last date to do this. They bring us in line with the rest of the country. I mean, when I read through some of the statistics, I was quite alarmed by seeing that between twenty eighteen and twenty two, four hundred and twelve pedestrians it a lost their life or stuff with serious injuries. That's a lot of people that are just pedestrians on the side of the road or running to across the road. And I guess if I was to put on my old portfolio of being involved with the surf Live stating, I guess a road crossing is a bit like the flags on the beach, you know, between the flags, this cross between these crossings and these new zones that have been put in place because it is a shared responsibility. This isn't all about the driver having to slow down. This is also about our pedestrians also knowing this is the safest space to crossing.
01:10:46
Speaker 2: You mentioned your new portfolio and today good news for those for the next long weekend, particularly David who loves going down to Old Dinger. With the main south throw duplication ramps at the Old Dinger interchange opening up, how big a difference is that going to make for locals.
01:11:02
Speaker 8: Yeah, this is a really great change and I know the local member Leon Biger was very excited about this. So yeah, the new interchange lanes on and off France are now open at all Ginger and that will make a big difference for this community. It's a growing community and one we know so many people love to go to and live there and also holiday so it makes a really big difference. There's been big changes in that area with schools as well, so it will make it far more connected and just get that traffic moving a bit more. But I know there's a lot of experiment also about the duplication of that All Dinger dispellics speech rope finally be duplicated, and you know that begins new to the completion as well, so not partnering in the south and really looking forward to that being finalized.
01:11:46
Speaker 3: Absolutely, it's a huge boon for people down south. Emily Burke, the new Minister for Infrastructure and Road Transport, thanks for joining us.
01:11:52
Speaker 2: You're going to be able to leave a little bit later after the long weekend now hopefully.
01:11:56
Speaker 4: Yeah.
01:11:57
Speaker 3: But we're speaking of areas where you don't know what speed it is, Like I know that had to bed down the bitchumen and so forth, but driving from like Seaford through to Seles, it's like choose your own adventures speed wise.
01:12:08
Speaker 4: At the moment, I think everyone go o.
01:12:09
Speaker 3: Just maybe seventy three feels like the appropriate to speak because it's somewhere.
01:12:13
Speaker 4: Between sixty and one hundred.
01:12:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, but those exit ramps are going to save a lot of time because it's it's been a little bit chaotic while it's understandably while the work's been going ahead.
01:12:23
Speaker 4: But the road is looking terrific.
01:12:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly. Now, David I mentioned a little bit earlier about Alex Coots, the young South Australian who had one of the best weekends of his life. Got to meet Bruce mcavaaney, He got to toss the coin in front of a one hundred thousand, got to meet Patty Dangerfield, got to meet Snoop dog Now this morning, unfortunately he's having surgery. He does have a medical condition and it requires him to see doctors regularly, so he couldn't join us this morning. But a little bit late last night I spoke to him and asked, I guess how his day was, How magnificent was an Alex, Good morning to you. Tell us all about it.
01:13:02
Speaker 9: It was so great to do the coin toss and everything else I did on the Oval. It was great. I loved it. So had they just started with an early morning. I did an interview with the Today Show at around seven thirty before the game, and there was already lots of fans lining up there. And then went got some breakfast and I actually saw some players coming out of their hotel, and then went got to the Oval. I watched the end of the seventeenth game.
01:13:29
Speaker 4: I reckon it was yep.
01:13:31
Speaker 3: Then yes.
01:13:34
Speaker 2: Dog, so you got to see Snoop DOGG.
01:13:36
Speaker 9: Yeah, it was really nice.
01:13:37
Speaker 2: Do you know many of Snoop Dogg's songs.
01:13:40
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, I know, I know quite a few of them, especially after that performance.
01:13:44
Speaker 2: Tell me what did you think of the performance.
01:13:47
Speaker 9: I thought it was really good. I think it was probably one of the best Dogs teams.
01:13:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was pretty good. Tell us what did you have to say to Snoop Dogg.
01:13:56
Speaker 9: We were just having a little chat like we're from the housewhere and from that stuff in my name and we're got a call. Really cool photo and that was posting on social media over there on the AFL.
01:14:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw it. It was absolutely incredible. Tell me what did you think of the match? Did you enjoy it?
01:14:12
Speaker 9: I was barrating for Geelong because I dore one of two teams jerseys and I'm a Crow sport so I was wearing a Geelong top because I was barracking for Geelong, so I was having a be a closer game. But Britain we were far too good.
01:14:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, incredible. Tell me mate, what was the highlight if you could choose one moment. Was it being at the center of the MCG with one hundred thousand Was it meeting Snoop dog Tell me what was your favorite part of the day.
01:14:39
Speaker 9: Oh, I was definitely the actual coin toss for meeting Snoop.
01:14:42
Speaker 2: Definitely magnificent. Good on you, Alex, Yeah, incredible, what a magnificent young man of South I was from West Lakes. Had the best weekend of each life. Good on your AFL, Good on your Snoop Dog spending some time with Alex.
01:14:55
Speaker 4: Dog hearts, didn't you, Johnny?
01:14:56
Speaker 2: I think he did? You know what? He was a performer and he performed. He didn't think he was too good for it. He gave everything he had credit.
01:15:04
Speaker 4: He has got the.
01:15:07
Speaker 3: Sort of potty mouthed versions of his songs with a lot of terms that I would never use on radio in relation to women.
01:15:16
Speaker 4: Wouldn't use them privately either, But he didn't get.
01:15:19
Speaker 3: All edgy and go out there and defire orders to do the radio edits.
01:15:23
Speaker 4: So you know, a bit like the mackelmore.
01:15:28

01:18:24
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, golf's dangerous. I think only you know you can.
01:18:28
Speaker 3: You can almost go to cash converters and get a set of clubs and have as much fun as you do if you spent five thousand dollars on some remote control bag with ping written on the side of it. Correct, you know it is. It is something that people sort of going real deep.
01:18:42
Speaker 4: And I just love.
01:18:43
Speaker 3: Playing it at a Flash Private because I've never been a member and I do I ever will be a not of a course like that, but it really is a cut above that course.
01:18:52
Speaker 2: And we're pretty lucky here in South Australia. The courses that we do have and Glenelg is absolutely phenomenal to be looking for your ball all day for sure. Hey, before we go to the news Davitch, we have a quick look at the police Home Care text line.
01:19:05
Speaker 3: We've had a lot of love for the idea of country pubs, people texting in with all sorts of wonderful locations. We had John from Laverthall on before talking about the Tarkawi Hotel. One here the Langhorn Creek that is a good pub. I've been there. One here the Freeling Hotel. Dom and Mel have the best pub around with the most delicious, ridiculously oversized meals. You won't be able to eat anything for days. And I like one someone and I totally agree with them. Even though it's not you wouldn't really call it a country town. It almost feels like a suburb these days. But the Alma Hotel in Wallonga, oh yes, the bottom pub, bottom pub. Then there's the middle hotel is the Wallonga and then there's.
01:19:49
Speaker 2: The one at the top, the Victory.
01:19:50
Speaker 3: No, no, that's in Seles, which is great as well, correct, But the top pub has now been brought out by the people who've done a brilliant job refurbish and relaunching the surf club.
01:20:02
Speaker 4: It all didn't get.
01:20:02
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, incredible great surf club.
01:20:05
Speaker 4: Oh it's stunning, amazing, great place to getting for the long weekend.
01:20:08
Speaker 2: Correct school holidays, perfect place to drive down. Toy breaking at eight after this news time now a huge hour to come on. Five Double a Breakfast David.
01:20:17
Speaker 1: Penberthy and Wild Goodings five double a Breakfast.
01:20:21
Speaker 2: Five past day. Good morning too if you're just joining us for the very first time. Nineteen degrees in the city. Going to be a nice warm morning before perhaps some storms roll in this afternoon. But the big story this week for school holidays, we're looking at twenty five and twenty eight on Saturday, which is magnificent, big half hour on the way, and after eight thirty we're going to be joined by the Deputy Police Commissioner Linda Williams on the latest I guess Sapole operation that's seemed significant amount of knives sees by police at shopping centers under these new wanding powers. Will also get an update on this truly concerning it's taking place in Janta.
01:21:02
Speaker 3: That poor little boy, jeez, I'll tell you what I hope that's all right. He disappeared Saturday afternoon at five o'clock and hasn't.
01:21:10
Speaker 4: Been seen since.
01:21:11
Speaker 3: A huge effort by police and the SEES and also members of the community up north. So fingers crossed will be getting some good news on that.
01:21:19
Speaker 2: Today, hopefully some good news. We've also been taking your calls on your favorite country pubs. We're getting around the country pubs who have been struggling a little bit with the costs of living, with power prices, with drought in some regional towns. The alge Bloom meeting that maybe our farmers, maybe our locals, are not spending as much money as potentially they used to be. So we've got a favorite country pub, give us a call. Eight double two three double low. But it's time for breaking it eight.
01:21:48
Speaker 4: Well.
01:21:48
Speaker 3: The state government has done what most people have described as a good job implementing a phone band in government schools. It's something that has already been bringing some really positive results, with kids being more attentive and importantly more social during recess and lunch, more likely to be out there kicking a footy or playing with a skipping rope or just having a what in my day was known as a face to face conversation as opposed to scrolling through their phones. While the schools might be doing a good job, here's a question how are we going as parents? Are parents still far too laissez fair, too laid back about providing their kids with phones at an early age and paying in some cases probably scant attention to what the kids are.
01:22:35
Speaker 4: Doing with those phones.
01:22:36
Speaker 3: Well, there's an organization called weight Mate that was launched in Sydney last year and now it's got a presence here on the ground in Adelaide with its Adelaide lead Emily Harrison representing weight Mate. We have Emily on the line now, Emily, good morning and thanks for joining us. I've got to say, as a father of four children who are all at very different stages of life, two of them without phones, two of them with phones, I think what you guys are doing is really important.
01:23:06
Speaker 4: Do you think it's It's.
01:23:07
Speaker 3: Something where you know, setting government aside. There's a big aspect to this which just comes down to parental responsibility and parental decision making.
01:23:18
Speaker 12: Thank you for having me guys. Yes, I think you're absolutely right. But what Weight Made is here to do is to support the parents. But I think The glitch in what you're saying is I think parents are really trying hard, but I think they're facing something that is impossible to face alone. Because your parent coming, your child coming home to you and saying I'm missing out because I'm the only one without a phone. It's such a powerful influence on parents.
01:23:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, holding the line as a parent, you know, like say, it feels to me. I don't know if there's any evidence to back this up, but it feels like high school is the point, like year eight is the point at which a lot of parents go, Okay, well, you know, maybe we need it for pickup and coordinating things and what have you.
01:24:00
Speaker 4: But that sort of.
01:24:01
Speaker 3: Peer pressure, almost peer pressure on the parents is something that's hard to resist.
01:24:08
Speaker 12: Yes, the kids are getting peer pressure at school, and you're right about that age group. It's the middle age group where kids want to fit in the most, and that's when parents start feeling they want to keep a closer track on their kids. But it's the most important time on a young developing brain to let them do exactly what you said, have face to face conversations and just be kids for longer.
01:24:27
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, So what's the how does it work with weight mate?
01:24:31
Speaker 3: Is it sort of like a pledge type system where you know, the parents and the children sort of unite to say, we will not have a phone until this age. And if that is the case, what is the age that you recommend waiting until?
01:24:48
Speaker 12: Great question. The way it works is that you commit or you pledge online to delay and giving your kid a phone. You commit to your seven, eight, nine or ten, and once ten people in your year level at school commit, it unlocks a community via email, and when you reply to that email, you reach everyone in your group. So there'll be some in the group that will just have the knowledge that other people feel like them and have that strength in numbers and never apply. Then there'll be others that reply to organized catch ups and groups and get that outdoor play. I know our group is currently talking about video games for my son. It's another mind field that's related to this. But the key to it all is the coming together.
01:25:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's the thing.
01:25:33
Speaker 3: It's not all. Not everything involving technology is bad, is it. I mean, you know, things like you mentioned kids getting together to play games. I mean, I'm quite happy for my ten year old to play Minecraft with his friends because you know, it's a creative process, it's a collaborative process. They're doing things that are interesting, link linking to architecture and scam all that sort of stuff. Like it's not all bad, is it not at all?
01:26:00
Speaker 12: And I think it's important to remember. And that's why weight Mate's really about.
01:26:03
Speaker 17: The phone, the smartphone, because.
01:26:05
Speaker 12: It's that personal device in your pocket twenty four seven, giving you access to potentially harmful material and people, the blue light from the phone affecting your sleep, social media affecting how you feel about yourself, and also just the sheer time. I mean, these apps are made to be addictive. So I think it's about managing the ownership of a smartphone for a kid and still letting them have access to the wonderful things that come with tech, but just not putting it.
01:26:34
Speaker 25: In their pockets.
01:26:35
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, well I read to you, Emily.
01:26:38
Speaker 3: You're going to be talking to some of the private schools and also to the Education Department, which has I think done a good job in the government Sector's so interesting to see how that goes down and hopefully your message can spread far and wide. Emily Harrison joining us this morning from weight mate for breaking it in.
01:26:56
Speaker 4: Good idea.
01:26:56
Speaker 2: I reckon a lot to play out with the social media band. Do you think that these social media companies are going to respect what our government tries to enforce.
01:27:05
Speaker 3: No, Well, the Times is front page today, Meta hits rock bottom, like this an amazing story how they're kicking people off Instagram who are using Instagram and Facebook to promote their businesses by saying that they've breached terms or they've they've violated something. And because these decisions and this is like little independent fashion businesses and so forth, but because all of these decisions are being done via AI, it's like they haven't You've got a person you can contact if your business suddenly seeks us to exist overnight.
01:27:40
Speaker 4: So I think they're sort of laws under themselves. Yeah.
01:27:43
Speaker 2: And I think potentially with those small businesses that rely on Instagram Facebook for marketing, it means so much followers is worth money now for a lot of these businesses, and we've heard stories of perhaps them losing them and how big impact that has. And with the social media band, we saw what happened when the government tried to tell Facebook and Instagram what to do with big media congomerates like us, we all got shut down. We got removed from Facebook. Yeah, yeah, could they do it again?
01:28:10
Speaker 3: Well, I think that they've done it in the past, so, you know, and they're motivated wholly by you know, desire to control everything. So yeah, you wouldn't be surprised at all.
01:28:20
Speaker 2: We want the social media band, but will it work? I'm not so sure. Hey, big issues on our roads this morning. Stephen has called in from Shadow Park. Stephen, what are you saying?
01:28:30
Speaker 25: Oh here you're going. Look, it's on the northern side of the or heading north on Lon Style Highway. That a four or five car accident. It's banked all the way back. I've just come down Major's Road and turned into a Star Highway and so I was on the other side, so heading north.
01:28:49
Speaker 7: Yeah, big delays.
01:28:50
Speaker 25: You're going to be the be there for a while.
01:28:52
Speaker 21: I think.
01:28:53
Speaker 3: Does it look does it look like a particularly bad crash? Stephen and their ambos as well.
01:28:58
Speaker 2: Yeah.
01:28:59
Speaker 25: I saw three, if not four cars have gone at the back of each other. One car is absolutely totaled. Police ambulances are there and I can sort of hear soirns on not far from one So Highway. Yeah, I can hear sirens going down the road.
01:29:16
Speaker 2: There so yeah, good on your Steven. Appreciate your calls, our eyes and ears if you do see something eight double two to three double low double ow serious crash on the sou Southern Expressway now Major's Road, as well as some delays on the North South Motorway making news today David as well. The federal government will today release the final budget position for the past year. The figures will show Australia's deficit will come in at ten billion dollars, down from twenty eight billion dollars that's been expected. The improvement is mainly being driven by relatively lower unemployment and higher income and I guess more taxes.
01:29:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, when now are they going to come back to Australia. I find it extraordinary that he I've got no issue with meeting the king. Clearly there's there's huge benefits from having Australia represented at the highest possible level, ie the Prime ministerial level, in the context of aucas and so forth. But how does he justify flying at taxpayer's expense to the British Labor Party conference to give a speech pumping up the tires of the embattled British Prime Minister Secre Starma that is total partisan party political campaigning and there's absolutely no sort of benefit to Australia from that. It's a favor for a mate. He's there trying to make sure that starmer, who's about as popular as European carp doesn't get his ass kicked to the next election by Nigel Faraj, and he flies off to give a speech telling everyone a vote for the guy.
01:30:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was reading it this morning and he's the first Prime minister to get involved in local politics like that. It's a bit taboo.
01:30:56
Speaker 3: Well yeah, I mean Morrison went to it when Morrison was PM. Morrison did go to a Trump event or I'm not sure if Trump was there from memory, but he certainly went to a Republican event and Morrison got a bit of a bit of a caning over that. But you know, if that's the case, then what's good for the goose is good for the gander or the other goose, the geese, the collective geese is not sure what the collective.
01:31:19
Speaker 4: Nown is for geese. Gaggle gaggle of geese. Anyway, we digress.
01:31:23
Speaker 3: But you know, don't do party work on our time and our money.
01:31:28
Speaker 2: I think it's to be a.
01:31:29
Speaker 3: Fairly easy to grasp concept. Well, maybe at some point come back to the country we did be running.
01:31:35
Speaker 2: I do have a few issues going on. That also the breaking news this morning that there has been another Optus outage, this time only affecting New South Wales. The network was offline for around five five thousand customers between three am and twelve twenty yesterday, and during that time period nine people were unable to call triple zero. So a pretty concerning situation with Optus. I'm sure there's plenty of our listeners that perhaps have changed provider. If that's you, we'd love to hear from you. Eight double two three double O double low. Before we go to the break, David, we have a quick look at some police home care texts.
01:32:10
Speaker 3: Terry in Henny Beech. She said, did you say the same about Morris and Edward? I just did, Terry, but I think you sent the text. So one hear from Simon and Seaford talking about businesses being kicked off meta. He says these businesses are also spending big advertising money on their pages before they're even being kicked off, And someone asks a very sensible question, why can't children have a phone just for phone? Calls and a text with no internet or apps. I know a lot of older people have got that because they can't be bothered. You know, they're not going to be you know, streaming or looking at websites or anything. They just want basic, old school, old school Knoki, a circa ninety ninety six type phone, the Golden Hero.
01:32:49
Speaker 2: I'm sure there's a few people who's still rocking an E sixty three out there. Let's change. It's the Bush in too, the Bush in the.
01:32:56
Speaker 4: Top Pub in Wolonger, great pub. You can do a five pub pub crawl in life.
01:33:00
Speaker 2: Let's do it.
01:33:00
Speaker 3: You start at the Alma, then you go to the Middle One, then you go to the Bush and then you get back to the Middle one.
01:33:04
Speaker 4: Then you finish at the Alma.
01:33:05
Speaker 2: Let's do it up and down the will as an obf pubs in one morning. What could go wrong? Hey, let's check traffic. After the break, we're gonna hear from a pretty inspirational South Australian. He's walked from well one of your most favorite places in the world, Mexico to Canada. He's done it all for a good cause, and we'll hear from him after this.
01:33:24
Speaker 1: David Penberthie and Will Goodings five double a breakfast.
01:33:28
Speaker 2: Well, David really excited to speak to our next guest. There's not much he hasn't conquered, from bears to huge blisters. He's walked from Mexico to Canada. A truly amazing story. Matt Hutchinson. He's an orthopedic surgeon here in South Australia. He's completed at raising money for a magnificent cause. Matt. Good morning to you and thanks for joining us. How your feet mate, are there and blisters going around?
01:33:53
Speaker 7: Or what?
01:33:54
Speaker 4: Morning? Boys?
01:33:55
Speaker 26: And thanks having me? Yeah, like I'm feeling great. Actually you're looking good, Matt, Yeah, well id just a few pounds?
01:34:01
Speaker 4: How did you lose?
01:34:02
Speaker 26: I lost fifteen kilos the first kind of six weeks and then put a little bit back on as a trail progress and I learned to eat more and cope with it better.
01:34:12
Speaker 3: I gotta say about when you were leaving for this, I was I'm not a religious person, but I think I prayed for you. I just thought to do it because we know each other. We've been made for quite a few years now. You're not a triathlete, are you?
01:34:26
Speaker 7: Like?
01:34:26
Speaker 4: It's not like you spend the weekend.
01:34:28
Speaker 27: I identify as a try.
01:34:32
Speaker 26: I've actually I've actually had a decent background in endurance sport, like I've done a nine man and marathons and things, but I've never camped overnight in a tent on a like the longest in tight before.
01:34:41
Speaker 4: So I'm yeah, you know, bear grils.
01:34:43
Speaker 26: I no bear grills, just to you know, do with a dad bod that had a dream where.
01:34:48
Speaker 4: You have a dad mate. You should put it your own calendar.
01:34:51
Speaker 3: Now, missis September is looking pretty good. So we spoke a few times during the trip. We had you on on that day when you were setting up your tent and there was a brown bear like a couple hundred yards away from you, you must have had some pretty hairy moments.
01:35:11
Speaker 26: Yeah, I don't think when I left I realized actually the danger.
01:35:14
Speaker 4: I was probably a bit immune to it.
01:35:17
Speaker 26: Look, there are more dangerous places in the world, but it's yeah, it's pretty treacherous. I mean I think for me, just things like crossing glaciers and snow and ice.
01:35:25
Speaker 27: I wasn't used to that.
01:35:27
Speaker 26: Electrical storms that can come out of nowhere, that they're the things that really kill people. Lightning kills a lot of people. But the wildlife, yeah, I was constantly aware of it. The bears, I probably saw at least ten bears, and I got used to that.
01:35:40
Speaker 4: But the.
01:35:43
Speaker 27: Cougar's Dave, and I mean the wildlife, not the suburban ones.
01:35:46
Speaker 26: The mountain lions, of which I saw two were genuinely terrifying and I would lose sleep over them.
01:35:54
Speaker 2: Well, you mentioned that talk about the mental side of it. Loneliness is a huge challenge, particularly when you're competing in such a challenge like this. You've got a lovely family, a lovely kids. Talk to us about the mental side. But what was getting you through and what were those struggles you've faced every day?
01:36:11
Speaker 26: Yeah, I think that the struggles the first couple of months were physical. You know, my feet were just not used to it. They were blistered. The swallow and it sounds like tiny violins, but it was just every step was.
01:36:21
Speaker 27: Like walking on glass and that was hard. But I think you just push on.
01:36:24
Speaker 26: But really it was that kind of base camp support that I felt from back here. I mean, you know, you guys at five Double A and others in the media and my family and friends were just enormous. But I think to answer your question more succinctly, I think what really sustained me was the cause. You know, I said, I'm going to go and do this and feel a bit about emotion bubbing out there. But you know, when it got tough, I didn't want to let myself down. I didn't want to let my family down, and I wanted to raise this money for these kids, and that I think were not for that greater cause. I may well have tucked in the tower, to be honest.
01:36:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, did you ever have any moments where you thought I've a bit enough more than I can chew?
01:37:03
Speaker 4: Here? Like some of the videos you sent me back that one of you walking through what.
01:37:06
Speaker 3: Looked like sort of shards of slate and like dead set, like a forty five degree angle maybe the higher gradient sheer.
01:37:16
Speaker 4: Dropped to the abyss.
01:37:18
Speaker 10: Yeah.
01:37:18
Speaker 4: Wild horses wouldn't get me to do something like that.
01:37:21
Speaker 26: Yeah, so I think they're worse. A number of times I thought I'd bit enough more than I can chew. Probably about three times per day I thought that. But you know, I think you just it's you know, one step at a time, literally, and you just you just keep pushing through. So yeah, pretty pretty amazing to look back on. I don't think I fully processed it. It's actually pretty surreal to be sitting here now.
01:37:43
Speaker 4: Seems we only got back yesterday. Yeah. Yeah, so can we ask Tommy your question?
01:37:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, Tommy, We've got Tommy've Matt's son, Tommy, one of one of Matt's children here in the studio with this.
01:37:53
Speaker 4: You must be so proud of your dad name.
01:37:55
Speaker 28: Yeah. When I first met i am, I felt really proud.
01:37:59
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I was lucky because for the last four months while dad was away, he was sending WhatsApp videos.
01:38:07
Speaker 4: Were you getting the videos at home with mum and with your your your brothers.
01:38:11
Speaker 28: And sisters tea, Yeah, some we didn't really have any sisters.
01:38:14
Speaker 4: But use boys, aren't you. That's right.
01:38:17
Speaker 28: We'll normally do it like on a Sunday night or like a Friday night, and we'll watch all the videos and sometimes you'd say, Tommy, sit back from the TV, and he would always.
01:38:28
Speaker 3: Be You must have had some good stories to tell your mates at school, because like you know, some kids, they go to school, like we'll get My dad's an accountant. He did something pretty exciting yesterday. He did somebody's tax return. But you could go to school and say, here's a video of my dad putting up a tent next to a giant bear.
01:38:46
Speaker 28: Yeah. I told her all the stories that I could, and I was allowed to like sometimes I amn't allowed to tell some to privates sometimes.
01:38:56
Speaker 2: What was going on?
01:39:00
Speaker 4: Good? Having dead back though? Yeah, it's pretty cool.
01:39:03
Speaker 3: Do you think you're following his footsteps and going a crazy adventure one day?
01:39:06
Speaker 28: Yeah, the night before he came back home, I could even sleep because I was so excited for him to have to make him come back. So then so it was harder to sleep than Christmas Eve.
01:39:21
Speaker 4: Oh, what an excellent thing to say.
01:39:24
Speaker 2: Talk to us about obviously, I.
01:39:28
Speaker 27: May tell you a genuine story.
01:39:29
Speaker 26: Last night when I got home, Tommy came in a room, gave me some gifts, and he gave me twelve bucks and he wanted to give that to the to the cause.
01:39:37
Speaker 4: How cool?
01:39:37
Speaker 27: And you know it's his own money that he's I don't know how.
01:39:42
Speaker 26: Stories, but no, he's got a great heart. And you know, we just hope that we've put a couple of good bricks in these kids moral warehouse during his height to teach them.
01:39:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, tell us about you know why you did it all, obviously raising money for an amazing cause. And of course if people are listening and they want to get behind you, now how best to do.
01:40:00
Speaker 27: Well, just look at your mug in front of you.
01:40:01
Speaker 26: There, you've got the website there, but no big hike dot org is where to go.
01:40:07
Speaker 4: But look in a nutshell.
01:40:09
Speaker 26: My story is I was a homeschooled kid, I'd unashamably say, a pretty low social economic upbringing, pretty challenged at times, and really very little chance of much of a future really, And then a school after I'd finished homeschool and couldn't get to university, gave me a scholarship, not based on any ability, just a bit of a rough diamond, I think, and that fundamentally changed my life and enabled me to achieve my dreams. And yeah, I just think education is such a key to unlocking the potential of not just our community but our nation. And if you look at very clever nations around the world, they really resource that. And a bit like healthcare, there's a gap between what's an offer for different people in our society and I'd love to close that gap.
01:40:52
Speaker 27: So the scholarships are to.
01:40:54
Speaker 26: Provide education for disadvantaged kids and support them holistically. At the moment, we've raised one hundred and fifty grand, which isn't isn't nothing. I'd like to get that close at a caught or mill if I could.
01:41:07
Speaker 3: So for the kids who've got bug are all, that's terrific.
01:41:12
Speaker 4: It's a laptop.
01:41:13
Speaker 26: It's not even Dave like. Some of these kids are getting internet at home. Yeah you know, they don't have internet, so they can't do their homework or log onto things like their peers can. Yeah, you know some of these many of these kids are coming to school with an empty tummy. And we tend to think of this about kids that are disadvantage. We think they might be of different cultural persuasions or live in certain areas. Some of these kids are within kilimbitters of where we're sitting today. Disadvantage does not discriminate between gender, race, or anything like that. So that's what I'm really passionate about it. I don't care what age or what color the child's skin is, or where they're from.
01:41:48
Speaker 4: I just want to help them. Well, Matt, great to see you back in one place. It's great to be here. The excellent that you did this.
01:41:53
Speaker 3: I've loved watching it every step of the way. To you, Tommy, great to see your mate. You're only a little bubba last time I saw you. Yeah, rightly. Proud of your old man. He's a maniac and we love him for it.
01:42:04
Speaker 4: Terrific.
01:42:05
Speaker 27: Thank you to five Double A.
01:42:06
Speaker 26: Then you guys have picked this up for anyone else and really encouraged it, so we forgot to be more appreciative.
01:42:12
Speaker 4: So thank you so.
01:42:12
Speaker 2: Much, magnificent. If you want to join the cause, big hike dot org the Magnificent marg Look at this, No cougar's there are none. News time now, Thank you, Matt, Thank you, Tommy back good.

01:42:27
Speaker 2: One minutes to nine. Hope you're enjoying your Monday morning. If you're on the roads, well it's an absolute mess out there, so we'll try her best to keep you entertained for the next half an hour or so. Weather Wise, the rains starting to hit South Australia across the York Peninsula, Showers starting to roll across strath album getting hit as well. A thunderstorm expected today is still the top of twenty five currently nineteen degrees in the city on the back of breaking at eight David, we'd love to know, perhaps when did you give your children or your grandchildren their first phone or their first device. What's the usual age that people have given their kids a device.
01:43:05
Speaker 4: Ours was I think year nine, So what were they got?
01:43:09
Speaker 3: Fourteen? Fifteen, fifteen? Yeah, I think the old that's the older kids obviously. Yeah, it feels like I saw a high school type thing some parents. One of my mates, his daughters didn't have phones at all during high school, and they're wonderful, smart, well adjusted kids with a good circle of friends, proving that, as we learned back in the analog era, johnn it is possible to make friends without and it's also possible to meet them in.
01:43:35
Speaker 4: Town at a designated time.
01:43:37
Speaker 3: It's funny, like I think a lot of kids these days ago, how did you ever meet anybody for a drink or so you either wrang their landline or when you saw them you said, you know, eight pm at the Exeter Thursday night.
01:43:50
Speaker 4: I mean that's sort of.
01:43:51
Speaker 3: I was always at the end on Thursday night, and usually there at two am as well on Friday morning. But that's by the bye, you know, it is possible to have a social life without a phone.
01:44:00
Speaker 2: A double two to three double. Oh, we'd love you to share your experience. Someone that's also without a phone today is Will Goodings. He's off enjoying a magnificent week away with his lovely wife. So it's me John O. Edwards in the chair. But David, let's turn to a pretty significant story that we've seen play out. Over the last twelve months or so. We've saw some truly horrific incidents take place at shopping center shopping centers across the country and it's led to the state government, indeed South Australian Police implementing a number of measures to counteract this behavior, including wanding, and we saw a massive presence a number of shopping centers across South Australia and a number of serious weapons found. To tell us more, the Deputy Commissioner is Linda Williams, Deputy Commissioner, Good morning to you. Were you surprised at what your officer's found?
01:44:49
Speaker 18: No, really, we went surprised. I mean this is the whole point of having the legislation to police the powers to do the wanding and obviously also to order people to leave areas at certain times when there's a risk to public safety. But it was quite interesting that Marine Shopping Center was the first venue that we used the powers on on Friday, and within just fifteen minutes they'd located a curved knives on a fifteen year old board, which is concerning. And then over the weekend we went to the next shopping center, which was Burnside and on Sunday they found three knives on three different individuals and each of those HASPIT deal with as well. So surprised, no, but it's still not. It's obviously the purpose of the powers so that we can reduce the risk to public and we're looking at public safety here in very busy shopping centers. And it can even use these powers eventually for other different declarations at different places. It could be large public events as an example in the future.
01:45:51
Speaker 3: We were having a bit of a bit of a droll laugh earlier Deputy Commissioner about Burnside village being so lardy, what kind of knives were we going to find there? Fact that he actually within within minutes found them, I mean, what does it say about the way some people, and you know, not generalizing, they do seem to be generally younger people, young boys and teens running around with.
01:46:13
Speaker 4: This sort of stuff.
01:46:15
Speaker 18: Yeah there, but on this occasion, I've got to say, David, one of them was a twenty five year old, one was a forty three year old at Burnside, and then there was a seventeen year old so three year old, forty three year old was stopped at the shop and said he had the knife. He also had some drugs and some drug paraphernalia and I'm clai he behaved quite an inappropriately. He was actually charged with disorderly as well as unlawfully possessed a knife and the cannabis. Obviously that was dealt with by the expiation.
01:46:42
Speaker 4: Noticed.
01:46:42
Speaker 18: So the thing is, it's the unpredictability of what people are carrying that's of concern, especially in busy shopping centers or busy areas, that poses that risk to the community because why why does anyone need to carry these weapons is the question. So what's its purpose? And it can't be for you know, obviously not for good purpose. So that is why these powers are really welcomed by Saypol Deputy Commissioner.
01:47:07
Speaker 3: The other big story, and this is something where we're all hoping very much for a happy ending. But this poor little four year old kid, Gus in Janta. What's the latest on the search for him?
01:47:19
Speaker 18: You know that search has been going since Saturday. Obviously we're taking this really seriously, very concerned for little Guss. We've got significant resources that will continue there today and as required. So we've got a massive help from a fellow people in the se S and CFS with the search. We've got drones, we've got trail bikes up there, we've got mounted police, we've got a significant number of police officers on the ground as well. So every efforts and every resource that we can use will be used as we continue forward and hopefully, like you said, hopefully we find him and he's will that's our main aim here.
01:47:58
Speaker 2: But yeah, very worrying, very concerning circumstances. Today, also, Deputy Commissioner Commissioner, is a day to celebrate all that South Australian police and police officers right across the country do for us in Police Remembrance Day. Tell us what will say if I'll be doing to commemorate this day.
01:48:16
Speaker 18: So today we will hold services across the state in various locations, from the Police Academy out through the Murray Malley down at Mount Gamba, Port Agusta and Port Kerry. But it's a time where we pause to on and remember there are sixty two dedicated police officers that did lose their lives in the line of duty. And it's a bit of a solemn occasion for us because it also acknowledges the dangers of policing and as we know, those dangers are ongoing and every day our police officers put on their uniform or their equipment and out they go into the front line to what what we know is at times very uncertain conditions. And that's why, you know, we like to sort of honor the fact that police officers continue to put themselves in danger, but they do so with good training and with support around them.
01:49:00
Speaker 2: Definitely, back to the topic of knives. We've had a call from Danny and Craigmore that would like to ask you a question, Deputy Commissioner. Danny, go for it.
01:49:09
Speaker 6: Good morning, Deputy Commissioner.
01:49:11
Speaker 25: Good morning.
01:49:14
Speaker 7: I'm a motorcycle Erston.
01:49:15
Speaker 6: Now I often carry a multitool on my belt.
01:49:19
Speaker 7: Now, is that going to be a problem for your officers?
01:49:23
Speaker 14: Well, if you're in one of these shopping centers. I'd say you don't.
01:49:26
Speaker 18: Really need it when you're in there, so it could be a problem. And you know, carrying a knife in general terms, if it's not in a declared area, you're going to have to establish.
01:49:35
Speaker 3: Why you have it.
01:49:36
Speaker 14: So I think.
01:49:39
Speaker 18: It can be a problem depending on where you carry and what your purpose is. So there's context with I can't be more specific than that, but you really should think about you need to be taking into shopping centers as an example, or leave it somewhere else.
01:49:53
Speaker 3: Deputy Commissioner Linda Williams from SAPOL, thanks for joining us this morning. I'll tell you what police remembering today. There's plenty of reasons to stop and think about the work that our police have given the year that we've had, and you only go back to December twenty twenty two with the police murders in Queensland under very similar circumstances.
01:50:13
Speaker 4: In Victoria.
01:50:14
Speaker 3: Only weeks ago, the same thing happened again, the guy still on the run. Amazing stories over the weekend out of Melbourne saying that there's a growing view that he's had.
01:50:28
Speaker 4: Some sort of pre established hideaway.
01:50:31
Speaker 3: And could be living there and definitely but you know, the extent to which there's not many jobs where you rock up in the morning with a nagging thought in the back of your mind as to whether you're going to make it through your shift or not.
01:50:46
Speaker 4: You know, like.
01:50:48
Speaker 3: People in jobs like ours, mate, we're blessed to live in a country where you can come in here, you can talk to people with differing views for three hours, and then you can call it a day after that and start turning your mind to the next day's program. But you know the fact that there's people in the community who see a police officer and see them in such a dehumanized way and think that it's sort of a tool of the state or something like that, and they're there to be resisted with the ultimate forces.
01:51:20
Speaker 4: Just appalling. So good on the cops for the job that they do.
01:51:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly, a little bit earlier we mentioned we're asking at what age did you give your kids or did you receive a phone from your parents or a device? A text on the Police Home Care text line from Jennifer, She says, morning, David and John. My children never had mobile phones until they were nineteen and twenty years and my grandchildren range from nineteen to nine years and none of them have mobiles. That's from Jenny. Interesting thought. I think it would be a topic on the thought of a lot of parents out there wondering when is the right time because the iPad is a god sent at multiple times, isn't it.
01:51:57
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, if it depends what what's of line work you're in.
01:52:00
Speaker 3: I mean, for us, we're constantly checking news websites and stuff like that, and got to communicate with each other all through the day about stories as they break. But I think Jenny's example, Jenny, I would say her family.
01:52:12
Speaker 4: Are outliers these days.
01:52:15
Speaker 3: I think that I would hazard a guess that most kids, by the time they're fifteen, I would say ninety five percent of them have got a phone, and regardless of income or suburb it's just seen as as a like.
01:52:32
Speaker 4: I must have item, when it's probably not I.
01:52:35
Speaker 2: Must have item, but socially it is now because if you don't have a phone, you're not cool.
01:52:40
Speaker 4: Way.
01:52:40
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what though, not having the latest iPhone that's a good way to save about two thousand dollars.
01:52:45
Speaker 2: But expe those things then it's phenomenal ridiculous. Join the conversation. Eight double two to three double O double OW. We've been asking when did you give your kids a device? Webll so been asking who is your childhood heroes? We spoke to South was the Alex Kootz who got to meet Bruce mcavady his childhood heroes. And we've also been asking you your favorite country pubs eight double two three double O, the numbered a ring one hundred dollars Kent Town Hotel voucher to give away.
01:53:13
Speaker 1: David Penberthie and Will Goodings five double A Breakfast.
01:53:17
Speaker 2: Eight to nine Here on five double A Breakfast, Will Goodings having the week off. John Edwards in the chair with a great man, David Penberthy. Plenty of texts and plenty of calls coming in on the topic of social media, and Daniel has called in. Daniel, good morning to you morning fellas.
01:53:32
Speaker 29: Just listening this morning, and there's a simple way that no one seems to talk about with social media. Just make it that people have to pay.
01:53:42
Speaker 4: Yeah, what do you reckon that would do? Would make them mean?
01:53:46
Speaker 29: Kids can't pay? Can they? So? Make it so the parents have to pay and then if then it all lies on the parents, or even better, the governments say they can't get taxes out of these big tech giants like Google on that. Well, they can put a man on the moon, why not put an interface where the government's controlled it. They get the money and then they let people have access. Kill two first one Stone.
01:54:12
Speaker 3: Well, I don't think Jim Chalmers need any encouragement to get another revenue stream.
01:54:16
Speaker 4: Certainly thanks for that called Daniel get on.
01:54:18
Speaker 2: You are big. Congratulations to Jane from Norwood. She's taken home our winner of the Norm Smith Medal sweep and takes home a brand you Smeg apply.
01:54:30
Speaker 4: Jane.
01:54:31
Speaker 2: Congratulations to you, Jane, building or renovating Your first choice should be visiting the Smeg showroom at Deadbe Distributors taste the difference with Smeg.
01:54:40
Speaker 4: I was thinking when will ash Croft's name came out of the kitty and it came out of the barrel rather on Friday, that Jane was one of the lucky recipients. Well deserved what everyone was saying, you along, we're going to win. I was going, Oh, how Geelong should do this. We had Eddie on the show at Maguire.
01:54:55
Speaker 3: He said on Footy Class last week that he expected the Cats would you know, given them number that they did on Brisbane at the start of the finals. It just felt like on paper, but wasn't it just such a reminder that on paper means nothing in sport.
01:55:07
Speaker 2: Correct. And someone that I think I'm just in love with now is Chris Fagan. The whole story regarding Chris Fagan, he was told you can't do it unless you've played, You can't be a premiership coach unless you've played footy. You've been there, You've done it, and look at it. It proves him wrong.
01:55:22
Speaker 4: I love his sort of non macho style as well.
01:55:26
Speaker 3: I like that he did that little doorstop yesterday and he said that he had one bert Saturday night and he went to bed at eleven thirty and he woke up feeling so good, so proud and happy of his team.
01:55:37
Speaker 4: But yeah, there's something about him that, you know, you.
01:55:40
Speaker 3: Don't see him throwing phones and ranting and raving, and he never wines. It doesn't come out and blame losses on you know.
01:55:50
Speaker 4: Something.
01:55:50
Speaker 3: Don't to pick differ about Chris Scott given the tough weekend he's hat but those comments he made about the subject run, I think you just lost by ten goals.
01:55:59
Speaker 4: Mate, Team one.
01:56:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, the rules didn't help.
01:56:02
Speaker 3: No, the rules didn't make any difference, and the rules are the same for everyone, correct. But Fagan is just never seen him say anything naky no. And I felt so sorry for him when he got caught up with that racism nonsense where I never saw a single shred of evidence to suggest that he did anything wrong, and the way sections of the media jumped on that like it was, oh, this is the darkest day in history. Well let's just have maybe just hold our breaths and white. We've got some actual facts correct in front of us. Not one fact ever emerged about Chris Fagan doing anything bad to anybody.
01:56:38
Speaker 2: Him at the Brownlow was also fantastic. He was walking along the red carpet with his wife and he did everything he possibly could to avoid a photo to avoid it was just brilliant. He's a man after my own heart. To a massive disruption on the roads this morning, We've been covering it all morning. Traffic left, right, and center. We've had crashes at the North South Motorway, the Sudden Expressway, Lonsdale Highway, Major's Road. Well, if you are stuck in that traffic, we do sincerely apologize, but maybe it's time to get some fuel and we'll check fuel. All thanks to RAA. Don't get stuck on the side of the road. Get RAA service. It's better to be a member with RAA. A few cheap spots the United at Melrose Park a dollar sixty four, the United at Glenungo dollar sixty nine point nine, the United at Summonon Park a doll at sixty nine point nine. And Diesel Well Mobile at Himstead Gardens a dollar seventy one. Before we go, David, I want to ask you about the optic scenario because more and more news is coming out of I guess another failure. You know you've worked with the CEO himself. How do you think they negate this next little period.
01:57:43
Speaker 3: Well, I think they need to work out what's going wrong at a SAP and how they can stop it from happening, because you know, part of the reason Stephen Rue came over from NBN where he was working was that he had a good track record on the tech side of things and obviously had the huge problems with this exact thing happened before under the previous CEO, but just getting to the bottom of it as a matter of urgency, I think that really scary thing as a new CEO, he's been there for a year or something. Obviously, with that terrible sort of history of recent stuff up is like knowing where the next landmine is, you know. Like the fact that this has happened in New South Wales barely a week after it happened in South Australia and w A and the NT is totally terrifying.
01:58:37
Speaker 4: I don't know what's going wrong.
01:58:40
Speaker 3: Obviously there's a lot of inquiries underway, but yeah, it's two of them here in South Australia with the coronial inquest, so you know it needs.
01:58:50
Speaker 4: To be sorted out totally, totally.
01:58:52
Speaker 2: We're at a time this morning. Hope you've enjoyed your Monday morning. Stick around. Matthew pan tell Us will be on after us and we'll be back tomorrow. David, we survived, Dad one beautiful, We've survived. We'll be back with you tomorrow.
01:59:05
