00:00:00
Speaker 1: Time to go home there, ball.
00:00:02
Speaker 2: Why didn't you just go home?
00:00:04
Speaker 3: That's your home.
00:00:05
Speaker 4: Are you too good for your home?
00:00:09
Speaker 5: Knockdown, build two with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
00:00:18
Speaker 2: Live from Highmarsh Square, it's 5AA Breakfast. Will Goodings with Stacey Lee.
00:00:26
Speaker 6: Nine after six, good morning to you. Welcome to Friday on 5AA Breakfast. We are at a home of sorts, the home of the 5AA Golf Day. We're here broadcasting live from the Glenelg Golf Club this morning. It's a bit dark, but as best we can make out, we're perched between the ninth green and the tee box for the tenth hole. That's, I think, what we can see, but we just need the sun to come up a little bit more. The sun, from what the little bits we can see... It looks like if the cloud cover holds the way it is, we're going to have a spectacular sunrise this morning. There's a bit of pink in the sky, a bit of darkness too, because whilst it's balmy, it actually feels like a beautiful day to be out on the course. There are the winds of change, and there may well be a storm, maybe a thunderstorm later today. I don't know whether it's going to come during the golf tournament that's taking place, but we'll find out. Golf Day 5AA, always a fun morning. Coincides with Meat Tray Friday this morning as well. We'll have more details on that. In a moment, coming up on the program, we'll talk about, given what the weather's going to do, this is going to seem weird, but I'm sure it'll be popular during summer. The new Paynham swimming pool opens tomorrow. The City of Nord Paynham and St Peter's Mayor is going to join us. We've got a story from someone who has had a subpar experience in an ED in South Australia. Subpar. I'll give you a hint. You turn up at ED and you're treated lying on the floor because there are no beds. Lying on the floor. In pain. After seven, you'll hear more details on that story. We'll wrap what has been a huge week in federal politics with Nelson Scott. And we're going to have feedback Friday and a little game of Nearest to the Pin a little bit later. It's always a fun day, Golf Day, Stace. Good morning to you.
00:02:00
Speaker 7: Yes, good morning.
00:02:01
Speaker 6: You're a golfer in any way? Not really.
00:02:03
Speaker 7: No, my husband is. So I think we call ourselves the golf widows.
00:02:08
Speaker 6: Yes. So you lose him for how many hours on a weekend?
00:02:10
Speaker 7: Well, he claims it takes six hours.
00:02:13
Speaker 8: Right.
00:02:13
Speaker 7: I'm told by others it doesn't really take six hours to play. That's more the 19th hole.
00:02:18
Speaker 6: Yes.
00:02:19
Speaker 7: A couple of hours spent there.
00:02:20
Speaker 6: A bit of the socialising that goes on afterwards. Which, you know, that's fine.
00:02:23
Speaker 7: But no, not really into it myself, but I can get into the setting of golf. This is beautiful.
00:02:30
Speaker 6: Courses are just spectacular. We'll be chatting with the superintendent a little bit later. They are just a testament to like expertly manicured gardens.
00:02:37
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:02:38
Speaker 6: Like if you can appreciate a good garden, you can appreciate a golf course.
00:02:40
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's true.
00:02:41
Speaker 6: That's true. The lawn just always is trimmed spectacularly. The setting is beautiful.
00:02:46
Speaker 7: I know. Even the scrub.
00:02:48
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:02:49
Speaker 7: I'm doing the air quotation mark. The scrub is lovely. It's all manicured.
00:02:53
Speaker 6: I think Glenelg, you mentioned, it's interesting you used the word scrub because I always feel like Glenelg feels real Australiana, this course. You get a lot of other courses and they sort of, try to rip off PGA style. There's something almost artificial about it, the way American courses look, I always think. They're sort of designed in such a way they don't mirror nature. They're kind of their own weird ecosystem. But this feels like... This almost feels like in the dark that we start the show this morning, that you just happen to a patch where there's no trees in a bit of the Australian outback.
00:03:24
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, you can see natives there. Is that some wattle?
00:03:26
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's all natives just there.
00:03:28
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's all natives. So, yeah, they've done it really well.
00:03:30
Speaker 6: It is beautiful. It is nice.
00:03:32
Speaker 7: I just... Golf seems to be something that unless you can invest a lot of time into it, it can be an extremely disappointing hobby. Every time my husband goes to play, he gets home and is upset.
00:03:43
Speaker 6: Yes, that's why I don't play.
00:03:45
Speaker 7: Do you play?
00:03:45
Speaker 6: No, I don't. It just makes me miserable. I just don't need that in my life. There are enough other things that do that. I don't need to introduce another of my own choice. One thing that makes me happy is Meat Tray Friday. And I think this is going to be a lot of fun this morning. We have the meat tray. Thanks to Meat Tray Friday. Oh, geez. Goodwood Quality Meats. Jump in and see Luke, Dave and the team. Goodwood Quality Meats this weekend. 121 Goodwood Road, Goodwood. We've been talking about things like parking in Harndorf earlier this week. Things that look like they're about to become paid. Feels like, inevitably, that's the way that discussion's going. If the council has the intent. You're having a bit of trouble with that iPad there this morning.
00:04:19
Speaker 7: My iPad's gone floppy. I can't make it stand up.
00:04:21
Speaker 6: Always worth watching the live stream when we're on OB. Because we're totally out of our element. Weird stuff starts happening. For the meat trade this morning, we want to ask you to nominate some things that aren't free but should be. Yes. Aren't free but should be.
00:04:35
Speaker 7: So obviously parking is the inspiration.
00:04:38
Speaker 6: Parking is the inspiration. And maybe parking in the city too. We've been talking about that. I mean, the absence of free parking is actually inhibiting the ability of businesses in the city to trade.
00:04:47
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:04:48
Speaker 6: That's a good nomination.
00:04:49
Speaker 7: The first one that came to mind for me was shopping bags.
00:04:53
Speaker 6: Oh, I love it.
00:04:54
Speaker 7: Oh, because not even just grocery shopping. I was in Maya on the weekend and I went to the Christmas decoration section and they said, would you like a 50 cent bag with that? And I said, well, yeah, how else am I going to carry six ball balls out of here safely that are glass? So to pay for a 50 cent bag and they give you the one that is exactly the size you need. And then I went up to the kids' clothing area and got Molly a new dress for Christmas. And Would you like a 50 cent bag with that? And I need another bag.
00:05:22
Speaker 6: Another 50 cent bag.
00:05:23
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:05:23
Speaker 6: Don't it cost 50 cents to buy those bags, do they?
00:05:26
Speaker 7: Surely they don't cost that much to produce them.
00:05:28
Speaker 6: Yeah. That's a great one. I've got meat tray Friday envy on that one. I was tossing around a couple. Airline food.
00:05:36
Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
00:05:38
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:05:39
Speaker 6: Sport on TV. But I settled on one. You know this new phenomenon when you go to any form of restaurant and they've got the tap? The sparkling water tap?
00:05:49
Speaker 4: Yep.
00:05:50
Speaker 6: And you get charged like you've just bought a $ 15 bottle of water.
00:05:52
Speaker 7: Such a good one.
00:05:53
Speaker 6: That should be free.
00:05:54
Speaker 7: Water at restaurants.
00:05:56
Speaker 6: Out of a tap.
00:05:56
Speaker 11: Yep.
00:05:57
Speaker 6: Well, you've put it in your own glass bottle.
00:05:59
Speaker 2: Yep.
00:05:59
Speaker 6: I shouldn't have to pay for that.
00:06:01
Speaker 12: Yep.
00:06:01
Speaker 6: Or at least not pay $ 15 for it.
00:06:03
Speaker 7: No, I agree with you.
00:06:04
Speaker 6: Water at restaurants. 8223 0000. Text us on 048 08 13 95. What is something that should be free that isn't?
00:06:13
Speaker 7: In a similar vein to yours, birthday cake at restaurants. If you bring your own birthday cake. I understand that they're giving you a plate to put it on and then someone needs to wash that plate.
00:06:25
Speaker 6: Almost like corkage for cakes.
00:06:26
Speaker 7: Yeah. I'm happy to have the knife. I'm happy to cut it myself. I'm happy to just– I'll bring a paper plate if it's the plate. Just because I'm sitting in a venue eating a cake that I've paid for and brought, why do I then have to pay $ 15 on top of that?
00:06:41
Speaker 6: That's a good one because it's especially insulting because the birthday is what got you to go to the venue in the first place.
00:06:46
Speaker 11: Yeah.
00:06:47
Speaker 6: Rob says, sauce on your pie or sausage roll at the bakery should be free.
00:06:51
Speaker 7: That's un-Australian if anyone's charging.
00:06:53
Speaker 6: I would have thought that's against the law anyway.
00:06:55
Speaker 7: No bakery.
00:06:55
Speaker 6: I presume Rob's saying, no one's saying the squeezy bottle in the sausage roll is paid for, is it? Do you pay for that?
00:07:02
Speaker 7: I've never heard of that.
00:07:02
Speaker 6: It must be the little packets.
00:07:04
Speaker 7: The little packets. But even then, there's not enough in there. You need to buy a few of those.
00:07:08
Speaker 6: Someone else here said, free to bet. Free to bet. Which is sort of... Free?
00:07:12
Speaker 7: What should be free?
00:07:14
Speaker 6: Tibet. Yeah, you know, I didn't think we were going to get entirely geopolitical with this meat trade Friday today, but I didn't care. Big good morning to the Chinese government who are listening. Sam in Thebanon, good morning.
00:07:25
Speaker 1: Good morning, guys.
00:07:26
Speaker 13: Everyone is a victim of this, and I'll call them victims.
00:07:32
Speaker 14: Bank account keeping fees.
00:07:36
Speaker 1: You've got my money.
00:07:37
Speaker 14: And I've got to pay you to hold my money.
00:07:40
Speaker 9: And they're already.
00:07:41
Speaker 1: Credit card fees.
00:07:42
Speaker 6: They're making money on it as well, on interest on it as well. Yeah.
00:07:47
Speaker 7: That's a great one, Sam.
00:07:48
Speaker 6: That is terrific.
00:07:49
Speaker 7: Bank accountants.
00:07:50
Speaker 6: Is there any better body on planet Earth for extracting the maximum amount of money out of you than a bank?
00:07:59
Speaker 11: No.
00:07:59
Speaker 6: Every single interaction has some form of tax or charge or fee.
00:08:04
Speaker 7: Or inconvenience. Just to go to a branch. We can't help you with that. We're now a business hub. I don't care if you're a business. Help me get my money.
00:08:13
Speaker 6: It's your money.
00:08:13
Speaker 15: Yeah.
00:08:14
Speaker 6: It's your money. Phil says, Will and Stacey, hope you're keeping an eye on the weather radar today. We are. And just to give you some, Phil, because I can tell you're concerned, ease. We are under the sort of the halfway house. After you finish the night, you come in here and have a drink. It's a terrific little structure that they've built at the Glenelg Golf Course. Yeah, it's nice. It almost feels sort of a nice sort of pre-drinks for a wedding type venue. Then you go to the clubhouse and have the reception maybe. but we are nicely undercover. I can't vouch for the rest of our participants today. Looking forward to seeing some of them down here. We'll be chatting with some over the course of the morning. It's going to be really fun. 18 after 6, more Meat Tray Friday entries in a moment. 8223 0000, text us on 048 08 1395. Dave in Alberton's called in. Dave, what should be free that isn't? Morning, team.
00:09:03
Speaker 11: A bit jealous for those that are about to tee off despite the weather. Nothing better than get to the point where your Ticketek account is ready to purchase your tickets and booking fee.
00:09:15
Speaker 6: Yes. The booking fee. Oh, that's a brilliant one.
00:09:19
Speaker 7: That is a good one.
00:09:20
Speaker 6: Stacey's written that down. Dave, you're in the running. You're in the meat tray.
00:09:24
Speaker 7: In the running.
00:09:24
Speaker 6: There needs to be some sort of raw... Forget the raw commission into AI. We need a raw commission to fees.
00:09:29
Speaker 7: Extra charges and fees.
00:09:30
Speaker 6: Extra charge.
00:09:31
Speaker 7: Because especially if you're the person who's buying all the tickets for a group of people and you say, okay, we're happy with the... $ 58 level of ticket. All right, everyone's transferred $ 58. And then you get to the end of the process and it's $ 6. 85 extra for everyone. And you feel like an idiot asking for an extra $ 6.
00:09:47
Speaker 16: 85.
00:09:47
Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely right. Let's go to Grange. Vinnie, good morning.
00:09:50
Speaker 13: Please, free car party in the city. There's nowhere left. And uh i think the way they could do it is first two hours around the city free and after that you.
00:10:02
Speaker 6: Pay yes has to be a false economy in the city at some point in time the car parking scenario is making it that the only viable business is being in the council yep or running a car park because it can't be to run a shop Let's take a break. We'll get some more of your Meat Tray Friday entries in a moment. 8223 0000. Text us on 04808 1395. What is something that should be free that isn't?
00:10:28
Speaker 5: Knockdown Bill 2 with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes.
00:10:34
Speaker 7: They do it all for you.
00:10:36
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:10:42
Speaker 6: Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, if you've got a vantage point that you can see the sort of southeast of the city, I encourage you to get out and have a look at the sunrise this morning. Bel Air, Blackwood, Colonel Light Gardens, that's the sort of direction we're looking right now. And that is absolutely spectacular. I imagine our text line is going to be inundated with beautiful pictures before long from our very clever photographer listeners because that is a sensational sunrise. Excuse me, that might have been the Melbourne service that just took off next to us. We're at the Glenelg Golf Course in the airport. is right next door. So occasionally you get a plane going overhead.
00:11:15
Speaker 7: It's quite nice. You can see them up very closely.
00:11:17
Speaker 6: You can.
00:11:17
Speaker 7: You get a great view.
00:11:18
Speaker 6: It's amazing how you adjust. And I know it's often a talking point about curfews and where, you know, planes coming overhead. And they're not the big ones, but my wife's family grew up here at West Beach, just off that Tapley's Hill Road. And they had all the small planes would go overhead. And people would come over and go, oh, wow. They'd react to the plane going over it. And you wouldn't even know after a while. It just sort of becomes part of the background. Anyway, that's what I'm suggesting this morning will become for you, listeners. Let's go to Mitchum, out towards that beautiful sunrise. Warwick, good morning.
00:11:46
Speaker 4: G'day, everyone.
00:11:47
Speaker 8: And I'm very jealous that you're at Glenelg this morning. Beautiful golf club, that is.
00:11:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, very.
00:11:53
Speaker 8: Something that should be free, or should I say someone who.
00:11:56
Speaker 1: Should be free?
00:11:57
Speaker 8: Jared Roughead, because he's done nothing this trade period.
00:12:01
Speaker 6: Let him free. Let him run free.
00:12:04
Speaker 8: Who wouldn't love a job where you get paid two, three hundred grand a year and then he comes along and says, ah, look, we're not going to do anything this period.
00:12:11
Speaker 6: Don't expect much. It is concerning, Warwick, that for a club that should be in the premiership window, all they're seeing is depth walk out the door. It's, yeah, I'm with you. Thank you, Warwick. Maybe I'm not so dramatic as letting Ruffy go, but maybe just to kick up the backside. Dave, good morning.
00:12:26
Speaker 17: Good morning, Stacey.
00:12:27
Speaker 1: Good morning, Will.
00:12:29
Speaker 6: What should be free, but isn't, Dave?
00:12:30
Speaker 1: I think the football on TV should be free.
00:12:34
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:12:34
Speaker 10: Oh, yeah.
00:12:35
Speaker 6: Increasingly, I think that's a battle we're losing, Dave.
00:12:37
Speaker 7: 100%.
00:12:39
Speaker 18: Yeah.
00:12:40
Speaker 7: It's just getting harder to work out where to watch it and how to watch it and how much it costs to watch it.
00:12:45
Speaker 6: It has gotten to the point in the US that sports bars there are having issues because you used to be able to just put on the TV that had, say, the basketball or the NHL, the hockey or whatever, and you'd leave it on for the day. But now the games themselves chop and change between not just TV providers but Amazon, YouTube, other internet companies. So you need to be constantly logging in and having subscriptions and it's really logistically impossible.
00:13:13
Speaker 7: Oh my God.
00:13:14
Speaker 6: That's our future, folks. I struggle to imagine that won't happen here.
00:13:18
Speaker 7: And I think businesses have a different subscription.
00:13:21
Speaker 6: Fee than individuals.
00:13:22
Speaker 11: Yes, they do.
00:13:22
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a good point.
00:13:23
Speaker 7: So if you're not subscribed or if your subscription just runs out or if your free 30-day period ends.
00:13:29
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right. You've got all sorts of issues. 19.1 degrees outside at the moment. So the backdrop to that beautiful sunrise is the beautiful sunrise. On a magnificent morning, it feels fantastic. It won't remain that way. The top today will be just 23. It's not getting a lot warmer. 3 to 15 millimetres of rain, showers and a possible storm. And it's going to come early, the rain that is. So the Bureau is saying from 7.30 we might start to see it. And the potential storm activity will come later in the day. But this is a cool change. It's going to be a potentially significant storm as well.
00:14:05
Speaker 7: Look at the family of ducks.
00:14:07
Speaker 6: Where's the ducks? I can't see the ducks.
00:14:08
Speaker 7: Just behind that golf buggy there. There's a family of ducks walking across the golf course. Sorry, I got very distracted then. I got excited.
00:14:14
Speaker 6: They're getting away from the storm activity. They're finding shelter. Or maybe they're getting away from some of our 5AA Golf Day hackers that might be sending them in the direction of their natural habitat. That is beautiful. What a wonderful morning. Not so much of a wonderful day after this point. All right. I think we should head back to the studio because Tom Wren is back in Hindmarsh Square with some sport promotion for us. Agostino Mitsubishi's demo clearance on now. Save on the Pajero Sport, ASX, Triton and Outlander, Nailsworth and Mawson Lakes. Morning, Randy. Morning, Will.
00:14:45
Speaker 19: Morning, Stacey.
00:14:46
Speaker 12: Yes.
00:14:47
Speaker 19: I hope you're enjoying it down there. It's going to be beautiful coming up shortly, although there's a bit of rain coming, isn't there, which is a bit of a concern for the golfers, but the course is magnificent. I Well, I was just going to say, seven-way trade we're thinking for Zach Butters. It's going to be extraordinary. So we don't know the exact details just yet, but it looks like it is moving closer. The AFL, I'm sure, will be keeping a very close eye on things. But seven clubs, or as many as seven clubs, if it was to happen, that would be unprecedented, I.
00:15:21
Speaker 6: Would have thought, Will.
00:15:22
Speaker 12: Yep.
00:15:23
Speaker 6: So the hold-up in this, as I understand it, Rennie, is the AFL has to check to make sure it's all fair.
00:15:27
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:15:27
Speaker 6: I hate this part of the trade period. If the seven clubs have decided it's fair, why the hell does the AFL need to have a say in it? Just say it sticks to the rules and let's move on.
00:15:37
Speaker 19: Well, you've almost got half the sides there anyway, so they're going to say, yeah, it's no problems.
00:15:41
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:15:42
Speaker 19: It's amazing, isn't it? I mean, I think we're all Itching to find out, you know, the exact tin tacks of how it's going to work out. But yeah, that's the position we're in. You're right, Will, at the moment. So intriguing. We're obviously, you know, the first domino has to fall like a lot of other deals. It can't be done until the one with Zach Butters happens because then, you know, they start to talk about other players and, you know, every other club can move the Western Bulldogs because they know they've got him locked in. So a fair bit has to play out before they can get to other trades with regards to Butters. So you'd expect something to happen. And I mean, the AFL would have to have this at the top of their list, but going to be really interesting to see how it unfolds. Also something that's going to be massive, I think tonight, In less than 12 hours, Australia takes on South Africa. This is the first test in Durban. First time they've played a test match since Sandpaper Gate. Eight years on and fascinating timing and not coincidental, of course. Usman Khawaja releasing a book and has called Pat Cummins to basically forewarn him about some explosive claims that he's going to make in his book about what went down.
00:16:48
Speaker 2: Eight years ago.
00:16:49
Speaker 19: So the timing is really quite, you know, going to pique a lot of interest, I think, isn't it?
00:16:55
Speaker 6: I don't have any sympathy for the sandpaper gate idiots, but he seems high maintenance, Usman Khawaja, doesn't he?
00:17:01
Speaker 19: Yeah, I think that's absolutely... Just.
00:17:04
Speaker 6: Putting it politely. Very fair assessment. Good on you, Freddie. Good on you guys. See you down there. Tell Ren, yeah, I'm looking forward to it, Renny. We'll get someone who really knows golf coming down here shortly as well. What a beautiful day. We can now see the sun is up. That sunrise is spectacular. Go check it out in the news and send us some photos. We're getting lots of Metro Friday entries sent through on the text line as well, some really good ones, some very funny, some very thoughtful as well. We'll have those in just a moment.
00:17:33
Speaker 5: Knock down, build two with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
00:17:42
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:17:50
Speaker 6: Magnificent morning at the Glenelg Golf Course ahead of what might be an indifferent day weather-wise. Some storm activity, certainly some rain on the way. We just had a look at the weather radar and Yeah, it's going to be a wet one if you're out and about.
00:18:01
Speaker 7: It's beautiful at the moment.
00:18:03
Speaker 6: It is spectacular. And the photos coming through on the text line are spectacular too. Tori sent us one heading through the Adelaide Hills to Robe with a view of the stunning skies. Tori says, don't worry, I'm the passenger. That's all right, Tori. We won't get an alert seatbelt. Emma says, good morning from Lightsview. Great picture. And Andrew sent us through a nice one from Craigburn Farm as well. So keep them coming in. Guy in Glenelg North is on the line. Morning, Guy. Morning.
00:18:27
Speaker 20: G'day, team.
00:18:27
Speaker 3: How are you going?
00:18:28
Speaker 14: Back in Adelaide, I live about two minutes away from Glenelg, of course, so enjoy the late sunrise.
00:18:34
Speaker 1: We're currently up on the Sunshine Coast.
00:18:35
Speaker 14: I'm out on the foreshore here having a coffee, listening on the 5AA app.
00:18:40
Speaker 21: Sunrise here, quarter past five.
00:18:42
Speaker 14: Why they don't have daylight saving, I've got no idea.
00:18:47
Speaker 6: It is ludicrous. I was in Queensland last week, Guy. It just makes no sense at all this time of year. Good on you. Thanks for listening. Thanks for calling in. We're all jealous of you, too, a bit there on the Sun. The sunny coast, yeah. Thank you very much. Nice one from Mark on the freeway heading to Murray Bridge. And in and around those wonderful sunrise texts, we're getting plenty of good Meet Trey Friday entries.
00:19:07
Speaker 3: Yes.
00:19:08
Speaker 7: Just before we get to Meet Trey Friday, I like this text from Rob. We were talking about the seven-way trade.
00:19:13
Speaker 6: Oh, yes. Trade week.
00:19:15
Speaker 7: He says, I don't know how the seven-way trade will work, just that the crows will obviously be screwed over.
00:19:20
Speaker 6: Yep, Rob. You're spot on. That's how it works. Somehow we'll be stuffed.
00:19:25
Speaker 7: Even if they're not directly involved.
00:19:26
Speaker 11: Yep.
00:19:28
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's just how things work in the AFL. Rob sounds like he's followed the Crows since 1991. I'm with him. Gary, good morning.
00:19:35
Speaker 13: Yeah, g'day. Talking about the charges that, you know, shouldn't be there.
00:19:40
Speaker 18: Yes.
00:19:41
Speaker 13: Went up to Westfield and bought a gift voucher from Westfield concierge desk.
00:19:48
Speaker 4: For $ 50, and she said.
00:19:50
Speaker 13: that'd be $ 52.
00:19:50
Speaker 10: 95.
00:19:50
Speaker 13: Yeah.
00:19:52
Speaker 6: Ah, that's not on.
00:19:53
Speaker 14: Yeah.
00:19:54
Speaker 6: That's a great nomination.
00:19:56
Speaker 12: Yeah.
00:19:57
Speaker 13: Went to the Lego store, bought a $ 50 voucher, cost me $ 50.
00:20:01
Speaker 6: Yeah. Well, I mean, you're giving them money for nothing, really. Yep. You shouldn't have to charge for that privilege.
00:20:08
Speaker 7: Uh, Now they've extended the period in which you can claim that.
00:20:13
Speaker 11: Yes.
00:20:13
Speaker 7: But they used to sometimes be 12 months. So a lot of the time they're getting your money and you're not even cashing it in.
00:20:18
Speaker 6: They would never have to give you anything. Good one, Gary. Angie, good morning.
00:20:22
Speaker 13: Good morning.
00:20:23
Speaker 10: How are you guys?
00:20:24
Speaker 6: We're good, Angie.
00:20:25
Speaker 10: I'm driving to work because I work at Western Hospital. So I'm on Grange Road. You know all about this, Will. And as you're going, sort of just before you hit Cadwalladr, the most magnificent rainbow over Henley Bay and in the Western Burbs up there. It's amazing.
00:20:40
Speaker 6: That is magnificent, Angie. It's my favourite part of the world, obviously, right there. I imagine it looks spectacular. Good on you. Good on you people at Western Hospital. You do a wonderful job. Thank you, Angie. Let's talk about someone who has done a wonderful job now that we can certainly see. We knew without the lights, but now you can see the magnificent work. Our next guest is the superintendent here at the Glenelg Golf Course, Tim Warren. Tim, good morning to you. Thanks, Will. Do you get anxiety thinking about dozens of people trudging over your fairways when there's rain on the way?
00:21:09
Speaker 9: Every day.
00:21:10
Speaker 7: Every day.
00:21:12
Speaker 6: Every day. No, no, no.
00:21:13
Speaker 18: Look, it's just glad that we can have these days and I suppose give the club a bit of exposure that not normally people would be able to get on apart from our members.
00:21:26
Speaker 6: So, yeah, I mean.
00:21:28
Speaker 18: the more we can get the word out of what we've been doing here at Glenelg for the last, I don't know, four or five years since we've started the course redevelopment. And it's almost complete and it's really starting to mature. And especially this time of year, we've had a good wet winter and a lot of the native vegetation that we've sort of implemented and planting in our planting plans is flowering and seeding and going to seed. And it just really just tops off the presentation of the golf course.
00:21:58
Speaker 7: We were talking about that earlier, saying sometimes when you get to golf courses, they can look quite similar. But here, it looks beautiful. It's a real Australiana-type golf course. So was that introducing the natives and bringing those species back to the area? Was that part of it?
00:22:14
Speaker 9: Yeah, definitely.
00:22:14
Speaker 18: Definitely stays. We started the course redevelopment back in, when was it, 2021, and with the vision of really bringing back, I suppose, the endemic species vegetation that would have been here pre-European so we have a sort of 4 June sort of landscape sandy base so it suits itself to that look and what we're trying to do is not have the golf course impose itself on the landscape it blends into the landscape and certainly the areas that we've established are more mature of really coming along coming along really.
00:22:53
Speaker 6: Well any tips for our five to play golf plays today any holes that are particularly tricky.
00:22:59
Speaker 18: Every one of them is tricky yeah i played on wednesday had the fortunate enough to time have some time to play on wednesday every time i play i just think have we made it easier or have we made it harder i mean it hasn't helped my golf game at all but um look look there's some challenging holes out there especially out the back um 15 16 17 waters in play um Yeah, probably our version of aiming corner. If you can get through that corner of the golf course with a reasonable score and not lose a golf ball and get wet, that's a good result. So definitely out the back, it's probably those holes out there, especially if the wind gets up as well.
00:23:35
Speaker 6: Yeah, all right.
00:23:36
Speaker 7: Do you get the blame?
00:23:39
Speaker 6: No, no, no.
00:23:40
Speaker 18: I just grow the grass. I didn't design the golf course. I just grow the grass. So when the greens are slow or not performing or Well, it comes to turf conditions, I'll put my hand up for that, but I think we're doing a pretty good job, the team that I've got here, they're doing an amazing job.
00:23:55
Speaker 6: Is fairway grass standard around the world?
00:23:58
Speaker 18: In terms of?
00:23:59
Speaker 6: Just the species.
00:24:00
Speaker 18: Oh, no, not really. I mean, what you've got to do depends on your climate and the zone of where of adaption, where warm season or temperate Mediterranean climate, so We've got warm seasons grasses on our summer growing grasses on our fairways. Predominantly a variety, a hybrid variety of cooch grass, Santa Rana. We've got a couple of fairways of winter green, but predominantly it's all cooch grass. Yet we're our bent grass greens. And that was one of the reasons why we undertook the.
00:24:39
Speaker 18: Reconstruction is we we had some I suppose encroachment of couch grass into our greens we had a lot of winter grass or power annual which is a weed species what we regard as a weed species in our green so that's why we made the decision to to address that element of the in the redesign as well well it.
00:24:57
Speaker 6: Looks spectacular Tim you've done a magnificent job and well our clients and sponsors and Some of the staff are pretty lucky to get the opportunity to play out there today. So thank you. We appreciate it. And by the way, can I beg for clemency? I've done the worst car park ever this morning. So please don't, please don't tell me.
00:25:13
Speaker 7: Please don't find me.
00:25:14
Speaker 6: No, no, no.
00:25:15
Speaker 18: It wouldn't be any different to half our members anyway.
00:25:18
Speaker 6: It might be. It might be.
00:25:20
Speaker 18: It wasn't great. They're just excited to be here and play golf. Their parking's just a secondary sport.
00:25:26
Speaker 6: Thank you, Tim. Really appreciate it. Thank you.
00:25:28
Speaker 18: Enjoy the day.
00:25:28
Speaker 6: Yeah, we will. It is a beautiful day. We've been, commenting a lot on the sunrise days, and it turns out we might be facing the wrong way because subsequent to the call we just received from Angie, I think it was, about the beautiful rainbow, we received a stack of texts from people saying the rainbow this morning is unbelievable.
00:25:46
Speaker 7: Oh, we can see it. Hold on.
00:25:47
Speaker 6: Go on, you go have a look. I'm going to go have a look. All right, you do a recce, headset off. I'll read some of these texts. Rob says, on the way to Fisherman's Bay and has a picture of the sunrise. You can see it? It's not a sunrise, but a rainbow this morning at Corunna. Thank you to that person. Jared sent one through. I'm just such a sceptic these days. I never believe any picture we see.
00:26:08
Speaker 7: No, it looks exactly like that. I was about to say purple and pink sky.
00:26:11
Speaker 6: It's like fairy dust. Jared's very reliable, but I just think everything's AI these days. The rainbow is spectacular.
00:26:17
Speaker 7: It is.
00:26:18
Speaker 6: So rainbow, sunrise, bad weather on the way. We're going to get a bit of everything today. Quite a remarkable one. Let's head to the weather bureau. Daniel Sherwin-Simpson is on duty. Daniel... Just on behalf of everyone participating in the golf day, when is the rain coming?
00:26:33
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we're going to have about two goes at the rainfall. We'll probably have a sort of first rain bandit, I guess, starting to drive that rainbow that you're seeing if you're looking out towards the west. That's going to come through in sort of the next couple of hours. We'll start to see a few light spits from that. Probably the bulk of it will be late morning, early afternoon. And then as we get into sort of the late afternoon, early evening, maybe around 6 or 7 o'clock or so, that's when we get our main risk of thunderstorms. So we could see the odd little rumble out of that first initial rain band, but I'd say the more stormy one where possibly we could see some severe weather. That's going to be coming through later on, possibly after your commute, but maybe a bit more towards dinner time. So hopefully shouldn't be impacting the Gulf with that second band of storms moving through.
00:27:16
Speaker 6: That's good news. What about the weekend?
00:27:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, so as we move into the weekend, things do generally fine up a bit once we see this first front move through on Saturday. So broadly settled weather. Moving into Sunday, it'll be warm for the bulk of Sunday, but we are going to get another band of showers and possibly some thunderstorms moving through later on in the evening. That system on Sunday, that one's going to be a bit more hit or miss. So probably won't get as significant rainfall totals out of it. But if you do get a thunderstorm, go right overhead on that Sunday. Definitely could be bumping things up a little bit more. I'd say in terms of rainfall totals, just from that initial band today, you might be looking at somewhere in the ballpark of five millimetres or so. And then if you get the storms coming through again later on towards this evening, you could get another 10, possibly 15 if things really get going with those thunderstorms.
00:28:05
Speaker 6: All right. Good stuff. Thank you, Daniel. Daniel Sherwin-Simpson from the Weather Bureau. Let's head to Saipol. Senior Constable Rebecca Stokes is on the line. Rebecca, a man has been assaulted as someone attempted to steal his e-bike this morning.
00:28:17
Speaker 22: Yes, police and paramedics were called to a caravan park in Richmond Street Hackney about 4.45 this morning for reports of an assault. The victim is a 60-year-old Queensland man. He was awoken by noises outside his motorhome, went outside to investigate and found an unknown man trying to steal his e-bike which he had secured to his motorhome. The victim was struck to the head with the angle grinder that the man was trying to use to free the e-bike. The suspect then fled the scene. The patrols arrived and located the e-bike a short distance away and the angle grinder was also left at the scene. The patrols searched the area but didn't locate the suspect. He's described as a tall man, about 191 centimetres tall or 6 foot 3 of Caucasian appearance. The victim sustained a laceration to his head and he was treated at the scene by paramedics. Investigations are continuing, so anyone who witnessed this or has any dash cam or maybe CCTV set up outside their caravan or in nearby homes, If they spot the suspect, they can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
00:29:14
Speaker 7: Wow, that sounds nasty, Rebecca. Tell us what happened near Wyala. There were drugs uncovered.
00:29:23
Speaker 22: Yeah, a really good traffic stop at Kultana just outside Wyala last night led to two people being reported for drug trafficking. This happened just before 6pm. An Air Western Highway Patrol pulled over a Ford Ranger on the Lincoln Highway at Coltana after it was detected speeding at 124kmh in a 110 zone. Police will allege that the driver, who's a 35-year-old woman from Hackenwest, she was driving while disqualified and also tested positive for methamphetamine. So a search of her, her passenger and the car allegedly located 41 bags of suspected methamphetamine and evidence of drug dealing. So both the driver and her 41-year-old passenger have been reported for trafficking in a controlled drug, and they'll both be summonsed to appear in the Waller Magistrates' Court at a later date.
00:30:09
Speaker 6: Trafficking in a traffic stop. Thank you. Just lastly, Rebecca, a serious crash at Renmark last night.
00:30:16
Speaker 22: Yes, about 8.45pm, police were called to 21st Street at Renmark after reports the pedestrian had been struck by a Holden sedan. The pedestrian's a 48-year-old woman. She was treated at the scene by paramedics before being taken to hospital. Fortunately, her injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. The driver of the Holden Sedanza 68-year-old local man, he was not physically injured in the crash. There were traffic restrictions in place while police investigated this crash, but the roads have since been opened. Again, anyone who witnessed the crash, has any dash cam footage or any other information that can help, they can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
00:30:49
Speaker 6: All right, thank you, Rebecca. Senior Constable there, Rebecca Stokes. It is coming up to eight minutes to seven. It is a Friday, which means Fruity Friday coming up a little bit later. Leith Forrest will be joined by Chris Jarmer from Jarmer's Kitchen at 2.30pm. All thanks to Smeg and Pows. If you're building or renovating, your first choice should be visiting the Smeg showroom at Deputy Distributors. Taste the difference with Smeg and Pows. We've got a meat trader giveaway thanks to Good Quality Meats. We're asking you about things that should be free that aren't.
00:31:21
Speaker 7: Mmm.
00:31:22
Speaker 6: Should be free that aren't. Some good suggestions coming through on the text line. If you call in, much better chance of winning the meat tray. Thanks to Google Quality Meat. You know it's going to be a great one. Call us, 8223 0088. Knockdown.
00:31:34
Speaker 5: Bill 2. With Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes.
00:31:40
Speaker 7: They do it all for you.
00:31:41
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:31:46
Speaker 6: Four minutes to seven. Andrew says there's a few spots of rain in Seton this morning. There'll be more than spots. A little bit later. So these two tranches of rain, the first not so bad, a little bit later in the day, closer towards the afternoon and evening. It's going to come down more heavily with probably a storm behind it. We're getting lots of nominations through for the meat trail this morning, thanks to Google Quality Meats. Things that should be free that aren't. Do we read Simon's? I really like Simon's. He's really put a thoughtful one through. He says, I think there's merit in the government funding the renewal of grave sites for returned servicemen and women, particularly from World War I and II. We fund war graves, but those who served and returned home deserve to have their graves preserved too. It's all part of our history. That is a great suggestion, Simon. That is a great suggestion. What a terrific concept.
00:32:31
Speaker 7: Yep.
00:32:32
Speaker 6: Someone here says, paying for alternate milk when I order a coffee just because I can't have dairy. I shouldn't be slugging the extra $ 1. 50 on top of the increasingly exorbitant cost of coffee.
00:32:43
Speaker 7: I'm also an alternate milk drinker, but I can understand why.
00:32:47
Speaker 6: It does cost more. It does. And there's wastage, I would assume.
00:32:51
Speaker 7: Is there, though, these days?
00:32:53
Speaker 6: Probably not. They sell so many coffees, don't you?
00:32:55
Speaker 7: I did see someone recently, one of my friends said they went to a coffee shop and just said, I'll get a cappuccino, thanks. I said, what sort of milk? Just normal milk. Full cream milk? Yeah, just the normal full cream cow's milk. Wow, no one orders that anymore. It was like the person, the barista or the person.
00:33:12
Speaker 6: Taking the order was shocked. I'm not sure we can do that.
00:33:14
Speaker 7: Are you sure you want regular milk?
00:33:17
Speaker 6: A cappuccino? Not a magic or something else weird?
00:33:20
Speaker 12: Ha, ha, ha.
00:33:22
Speaker 7: Chris on the text line says, entrance to the Royal Adelaide show should be free, given how expensive everything inside the grounds is.
00:33:30
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, everything everywhere. It's not just the Royal Show, is it?
00:33:34
Speaker 7: No.
00:33:34
Speaker 6: It's just everything everywhere.
00:33:36
Speaker 12: No.
00:33:36
Speaker 6: Yeah, no. Do we take it, Chris?
00:33:38
Speaker 7: Sharon also says, public transport. It would be great to have it free. Sharon doesn't pay for parking in the city, parks outside and walks in or goes to suburban shopping centres.
00:33:48
Speaker 6: Good one, Sharon. Keep them coming in. You're on the running to win the meat trade this morning. Should we do a little quick top seven before seven?
00:33:53
Speaker 11: Oh, yeah.
00:33:54
Speaker 6: Yeah, let's do it.
00:33:54
Speaker 2: The top seven before seven.
00:33:57
Speaker 6: Inspired by the meat tray this morning, we're asking you to nominate things that should be free that aren't. Songs containing the word free.
00:34:06
Speaker 9: Okay.
00:34:08
Speaker 6: In the title. Starting with this one, number seven. Elton John with Philadelphia Freedom in the seventh spot. Number six.
00:34:22
Speaker 16: I don't need your freedom.
00:34:25
Speaker 6: Oh, my God.
00:34:25
Speaker 2: Girl, all I want right now is you.
00:34:30
Speaker 6: That's an interesting moment, actually, because that's the only time Wham's ever been played on 5AA, and it hasn't been by Angie McBride. Number, what do I have to do? Five.
00:34:38
Speaker 11: Oh.
00:34:40
Speaker 7: That's a certainly five.
00:34:45
Speaker 12: It's tender.
00:34:49
Speaker 7: That should be higher.
00:34:49
Speaker 6: John Farnham, yeah. That could be controversial in number five. Let's go to number four. Rolling Stones with I'm Free. Some big bands in this section. Number three.
00:35:08
Speaker 2: I've got to break free.
00:35:17
Speaker 7: I want to break free from all the surcharges.
00:35:19
Speaker 6: This could be the theme of your advocacy. Front some sort of no more surcharges. Number two. Tom Petty with Free Falling, which means the number one spot goes to... Leonard Skinner, Freebird. I think the full version of that goes for about eight minutes. We can't play the whole thing. I love that song. I thought we were going to.
00:36:00
Speaker 7: No.
00:36:01
Speaker 6: If we ever do, you'll know it's because something bad has happened.
00:36:03
Speaker 7: Massive technical knowledge.
00:36:05
Speaker 6: That's exactly right. I've just run out of stuff to say. Freebird in the number one spot. What do we miss? Top seven songs before seven with free in the title. We'll get to some of those after seven o'clock and more of your Meat Tray Friday entries. What should be free but isn't?
00:36:34
Speaker 13: Come on the rising wind.
00:36:41
Speaker 2: Knockdown.
00:36:42
Speaker 7: Build two.
00:36:43
Speaker 5: With Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes.
00:36:48
Speaker 7: They do it all for you.
00:36:49
Speaker 2: We're Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:36:54
Speaker 6: Eight after seven. Good morning to you. Joining us for the first time on this Friday the 9th of October. Mother Nature has put on a show in the first hour of the program. We've had a magnificent sunrise. We've had a remarkable rainbow out towards the western suburbs that lots of people sent us a picture of as well. And on the way, we've got a storm and certainly some rain that is going to complicate things here at the Glenelg Golf Club for our golf day. But Bruce Lind is here. We're going to be chatting to, in a moment, a footy legend who looks undeterred, albeit sans a raincoat, which is, I think, going to be something. If anyone is driving here, make sure you get an umbrella or something because you might well need it. We just had a 747 with songs with free in the title, inspired by the meat tray this morning. We're asking you about things that should be free that aren't. I don't think, it didn't seem like there was an outcry, but there were some suggestions.
00:37:43
Speaker 7: There were some other suggestions. This person says Freestyler by Bomb Funk MC. I like that one.
00:37:49
Speaker 6: Yeah. That's a good one. That's a good one.
00:37:51
Speaker 7: Keep on Rocking in the Free World by Neil Young.
00:37:54
Speaker 6: That would have been good.
00:37:55
Speaker 12: Yep.
00:37:56
Speaker 7: Freedom by George Michael. A couple of people have suggested that one. Free the people and freedom by my faves back in the day. Sherbert, that's from Michelle. You youngins wouldn't remember.
00:38:08
Speaker 6: Thank you, Michelle.
00:38:10
Speaker 7: Yes, and we also have another suggestion for what should be free but isn't. And I'm outraged by this one, Malcolm, on your behalf. Chicken salt should be free. I get charged 50 cents extra for... That's an abomination.
00:38:25
Speaker 6: I would have thought, you know, in the interest of conserving things that are uniquely South Australian, you know, we have a conservation society for significant buildings and other things, that there should be some sort of government intervention to preserve chicken salt for all.
00:38:42
Speaker 7: For free, yeah.
00:38:42
Speaker 6: For free. Yeah. That deserves government intervention, I think. I think it does. You're right. We can't lose our institutions. Well. What are we if we don't have chicken salt?
00:38:51
Speaker 7: Nothing.
00:38:51
Speaker 6: We're nothing. Glenda in Fairview Park. Good morning.
00:38:54
Speaker 17: Good morning, Will and Stacey.
00:38:57
Speaker 12: We believe a farmer's own dam water should be free.
00:39:03
Speaker 6: This is a good one. Explain to our listeners, Glenda, how charges are levied on dam. I've heard this before on dam water.
00:39:11
Speaker 15: I don't actually know.
00:39:12
Speaker 17: I'm not a farmer, but I know that they.
00:39:15
Speaker 16: Do have to pay.
00:39:17
Speaker 6: Yes, they do. I can't recall. Call us if you're a farmer because I've heard of this gripe before. And I can't remember how it's levied, if it's a flat fee on each one.
00:39:25
Speaker 11: What?
00:39:25
Speaker 6: Yeah, but they do all the legwork.
00:39:27
Speaker 7: They damn on their own property.
00:39:28
Speaker 6: They damn the property and they do it all. A farmer will do a much better job of explaining than I will. We'll get an explanation on that one because I have heard that gripe before. 8223 0000 does sound outrageous on the face of it. So too does this next story. We got sent a message where someone said you need to do some work on a story by Ginny Chama, who's about to join us, who went to the Noolunga Emergency Department. Now, the story doesn't go where you might presume. This is not about ramping. This is about what happens when you get inside and are seen to. Ginny, good morning.
00:40:03
Speaker 15: Good morning. How are you today?
00:40:05
Speaker 6: Well, well, Ginny, just tell us about your ED visit.
00:40:09
Speaker 15: OK, well, over the last month, it's my third visit, and the other two... sort of, you know, well, okay, but I went to the doctor in the morning and my oxygen levels were so low they decided that I needed to go to hospital.
00:40:28
Speaker 13: So they took me.
00:40:29
Speaker 15: They put me in the waiting room, which I expect them to do, but I was so unwell I needed to lie down, so the only spot for me to lie down was on the floor. When they came to do my obs, I asked for a blanket so at least I could lie on something, which they did. And then I just stayed there, you know.
00:40:56
Speaker 6: On the ground?
00:40:57
Speaker 15: Yeah, on the ground, just next to some chairs. For how long, Ginny? Sorry?
00:41:04
Speaker 7: How long were you laying on a blanket on the floor in the waiting room?
00:41:08
Speaker 15: For over four hours. But in the meantime, a doctor came to me and she got down at my level and she said that they didn't have any beds but that she'd like to start treatment. And so they started treatment. They did swabs and blood, x-rays, you know, all those sorts of things. I had a cannula in that they put in on the ambulance on the way in, so they wanted to give me fluid but wouldn't do that until I was actually taken inside. So, yeah, I just stayed there. And there were a couple of incidents with the security staff that didn't go down very well.
00:41:51
Speaker 6: You mean people coming in misbehaving?
00:41:55
Speaker 15: No, the security staff were misbehaving.
00:41:58
Speaker 6: Oh, okay. That's even worse. They weren't hassling you, were they, Ginny?
00:42:03
Speaker 15: Yes, they were, actually, because there's usually only one of them there. But for some unknown reason, there were four. And they were sitting, you know, with about a metre from me and just continued laughing and carrying on. They obviously weren't, you know, working very hard because of all the enjoyment they seemed to be having with each other. I did make a comment about, you know, you guys are having too much fun for being at work and was looked at as daggers.
00:42:37
Speaker 6: And this is why you're lying there being treated on the ground.
00:42:41
Speaker 15: Yep, and when I was taken into the X-ray and came back, they were still carrying on and I sort of lost it a little bit and asked them if they thought it was appropriate to be carrying on laughing in a waiting room with sick people around them. And, you know, and then the nurse overheard me and she came out and... asked me what the problem was and basically she said to me are they laughing at you and they're allowed to laugh if they want to and they're here to protect us.
00:43:24
Speaker 6: You know you wouldn't have been in the presence of security guards misbehaving or behaving had you been somewhere that wasn't the floor to be treated that's to me the biggest outrage in this Ginny how are you getting on.
00:43:35
Speaker 15: Now sorry how are you getting on now They sent me home and, you know, since I've been home, I've been in bed. You know, I struggle breathing, you know, like, and, yeah, it's just something I wasn't expecting to have to... I just thought it was wrong. And the other thing I suppose I'd like to mention is that, you know, I am an ex-nurse. I worked at Flinders Medical Centre for... over 10 years in the accident and emergency department. So I sort of do know a little bit about it. And I think one of the things that amazed me the most was that it was a gentleman sitting in the waiting room and a doctor came out, put his leg up on the chair and proceeded to talk to this man about his prognosis and diagnosis in front of everybody there. that was around, you know, so I actually knew exactly what he had, what his prognosis was, that he didn't need surgery, and that he would, you know, have a lot of pain, but, you know, like, everything would be all right sort of thing. And I just thought.
00:44:49
Speaker 6: It's not a lot of dignity, is there, Ginny?
00:44:51
Speaker 15: No, it's not, yeah. But then, yeah, I was very amazed at my post, because I don't post. I never post.
00:45:02
Speaker 11: Yeah.
00:45:03
Speaker 15: I just thought, I didn't think it was an acceptable experience, and I just wanted to share it. But I suppose one of the things that I wasn't, I had no idea would have actually happened was all the trolls that are there and how nasty they can be.
00:45:21
Speaker 6: Wow, that's, yeah.
00:45:22
Speaker 15: You know, I was.
00:45:24
Speaker 6: That's social media, unfortunately.
00:45:25
Speaker 11: Yeah.
00:45:26
Speaker 6: We appreciate you sharing your story, Ginny, because people need to hear it. And our listeners are sending through a lot of texts of sympathy. And I would ignore dropkicks on social media if it's got nothing better to do with their time than be awful to people. Thank you, Ginny. Ginny Chama, who spent four hours at the floor in ED whilst being treated. And I don't know if you've listened to that story and thought Ginny sounded like someone who, if you were going to pick anyone out in a waiting room that could probably withstand being on the floor, then you've had a different take on that interview to me.
00:45:54
Speaker 7: This is a 71-year-old woman in Adelaide.
00:45:56
Speaker 18: Yes.
00:45:57
Speaker 7: At an Adelaide suburban hospital. This text from Don is exactly my thoughts. What sort of third world country do we live in where people have to lie on the floor at a hospital?
00:46:06
Speaker 6: It's actually worse than, so ramping is an issue, but at very least you're in an ambulance and you're being seen to. Corridor care isn't good enough, but at very least you're in a bed in a corridor. This is new. Now we're doing floor treatment.
00:46:21
Speaker 7: There was that thing called fit to sit.
00:46:23
Speaker 6: Fit to sit, yes.
00:46:24
Speaker 7: If you're fit to sit, you can be in the waiting room. Ginny wasn't even fit to sit. She had to lie on a blanket on the floor in the waiting room.
00:46:32
Speaker 6: If you'd read Ginny's story online and closed your eyes and thought about it, I think it was Don's text, you would imagine it was some poor country somewhere else in the world. It's here, it's in Adelaide, and it's a disgrace. Ginny, thank you. We're going to take a break. We'll get to some more of your Meat Tray Friday entries and the great Bruce Linda, who's about to tee off. When are you teeing off, Bruce? Eight o'clock. Eight o'clock. All right, so he's a little bit of time.
00:46:56
Speaker 7: He's doing some prep.
00:46:57
Speaker 6: Doing some, yeah, mental exercises. He'll be joining us on the other side of this break.
00:47:02
Speaker 5: Knockdown Bill 2 with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
00:47:10
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:47:14
Speaker 6: 23 after 7. You don't even know who you're going to bump into at 5AA' s Golf Day down here at the Glenelg Golf Course. And if you're watching on the Facebook and YouTube live stream, you'll see we've been joined by one of the greats, Bruce Linder, at the desk here. Bruce, good morning to you. Morning.
00:47:26
Speaker 9: What a great turnout. What a great place to be.
00:47:29
Speaker 23: It is.
00:47:29
Speaker 6: You're going to be hooking up with your old mate, Roger Luters, today?
00:47:32
Speaker 9: I'm sure I'll catch up for a drink later, yeah.
00:47:34
Speaker 6: Who's the better golfer? Rog works for us, for our listeners.
00:47:37
Speaker 9: Rog, you'll say he is. That's fine.
00:47:38
Speaker 6: He'll say he is. How do you go around? You looking forward to it?
00:47:43
Speaker 9: I'm always up for a game of golf. It's a great sport.
00:47:46
Speaker 7: Do you ever leave golf feeling good?
00:47:49
Speaker 9: If I win, yeah.
00:47:50
Speaker 6: Yeah, always.
00:47:51
Speaker 9: Unfortunately, that's sort of in my nature. I want to win. So it's not about the game. It's about winning.
00:47:56
Speaker 6: I know you didn't come on to talk about this, but you had a Make Try Friday entry for us, given you work in the wine industry, and I actually think it's a really good discussion.
00:48:02
Speaker 9: Well, what it is is like... So in the wine industry, you have to pay 29% wet tax, right? So on top of that, then they throw... GST on. So it's not the only industry. So we have the petrol industry where, you know, you have the excise and then they throw GST on top of it. I'm old enough to remember when GST came in and there was a promise by the government that we wouldn't have a tax on the tax.
00:48:24
Speaker 16: Yes.
00:48:25
Speaker 9: And it just, excuse the language, it just pisses me off.
00:48:28
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's ridiculous. Yeah, it is a tax on the tax.
00:48:30
Speaker 7: Making the tax a tax.
00:48:31
Speaker 9: Makes everything so much more expensive. I mean, because if you think about it, when there's a wholesale price, whoever's selling it has to multiply that So they can make a margin. So if the wholesale price is higher, well, then it goes much more expensive to buy anything.
00:48:50
Speaker 6: I didn't realise wine equalisation tax, I didn't realise it was 29%.
00:48:54
Speaker 11: 29%.
00:48:54
Speaker 9: It's staggering.
00:48:55
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's ridiculous.
00:48:56
Speaker 9: So if you look at a normal bottle of wine, it might be $ 30. Basically $ 10 of that is just wet tax and then another 10% of that.
00:49:02
Speaker 11: GST.
00:49:02
Speaker 12: GST.
00:49:08
Speaker 6: For an industry that we're ostensibly quite proud of and we punch well above our weight in.
00:49:13
Speaker 9: Well then you throw in that in New Zealand they don't pay wet tax so they have a leg up and why do we give why do we give them a leg up it's just it's just.
00:49:20
Speaker 6: Nuts that's it you're bruce you're eligible for the meat tray yep thank you congratulations uh thank you good quality meats uh you've now you've written a book as well you've just you've brought in and we've got one that we'll give away to a listener this morning first person of course in an 8223 0055 it looks like quite a personal reflection on on your life.
00:49:37
Speaker 9: Uh yeah well um it started so i was playing golf um i had a reasonable new year's eve and uh then played golf the next day and then um i went to the toilet and after the game oh that's a funny color and um and from there uh within a couple of days found out that i had kidney cancer um which is um yeah it's quite sobering um everything that goes along with that including um you know why me uh my family, you know, how does it affect us, all that sort of stuff. Had the surgery, lying in the critical care unit and all sorts of machines. And I'm thinking, you know what, if this goes south, my daughter doesn't know anything about me. So I thought I'd put pen to paper. Well, I actually got my phone out and used notes and just used finger type.
00:50:30
Speaker 6: You finger typed the whole book, did you? Yes, basically. Wow.
00:50:34
Speaker 9: But I graduated. I went from there to an iPad. So basically. So my recovery process was, you know, I'd wake up in the morning, do a little bit of exercise and then basically have breakfast and then just get my iPad out and go, well, let's write about a memory of some description. So it's about that. And then throughout the process of doctors and when things are a little dark, I thought, how do I turn a positive out of this process? very very nasty negative and um so i teamed up with an organization called ansup which is australian new zealand urogenital and prostate cancer long acronym uh to raise money so within the book towards the end so um it's part of the so it's part of my life so it's a cross between a memoir and autobiography so part of my my life like you know i was born in here and did this and blah blah blah But then interwoven with that is the cancer journey. So there's diary, journal notes all the way through it. So people have an understanding of what people go through when they're faced with an insidious disease like that.
00:51:51
Speaker 12: Yeah.
00:51:51
Speaker 6: Well, thank you for being so generous to bring in some for us to give away to our listeners. Bruce, we'll do that right now. And My pleasure. And all the best out there today. Great to catch up with you. Thank you so much. Hopefully the rain stays away for you. Yeah, hopefully the weather's all right. Yeah, I'm sure it'll be good. Good on you.
00:52:02
Speaker 12: Thanks, guys.
00:52:03
Speaker 6: Good on you, Bruce. Thank you. 8223 0055 is the number if you'd like to pick up a copy of the book. In the meantime, let's try and rope in Tim Ginniver to come over quickly. And he's got his Titleist hat on. He looks the part. He's ready to go. Tim, good morning to you. Yes, good morning. How are you? Do you reckon at some point in time, maybe when you're, out and round, maybe when you get here and you've just finished the ninth, Zach Butters might be at the Bulldogs? Do you know what's going to happen? It's a good question.
00:52:31
Speaker 23: I reckon it might take to the 15th or 16th. It seems like a SHIT show, doesn't it, at the moment? And the AFL sticking their nose right into it.
00:52:41
Speaker 6: Why do they stick their oar in it, Tim? If the seven clubs say that we all think this is fair, what do they know that the clubs don't about fairness?
00:52:50
Speaker 23: I reckon if we were relocated to Darwin, it wouldn't be a problem. They would have done the first deal. I just feel that if you're in a football state, W-A-S-A, not as giving.
00:53:03
Speaker 6: Yeah, you're right.
00:53:04
Speaker 23: Yeah, you don't get those unofficial concessions. Well, we'll see a deal that's going to happen. Ben King will end up at Hawthorne and magically, Aidan Schubert, a young lad from South Australia, good player too, a young kid, he's going to end up with Gold Coast somehow.
00:53:17
Speaker 10: Unrelated.
00:53:18
Speaker 6: Unrelated whatsoever.
00:53:20
Speaker 23: Fair dinkum, I'll tell you.
00:53:21
Speaker 7: Seven-way trade.
00:53:22
Speaker 23: I'm sounding very cynical this morning.
00:53:24
Speaker 6: I think it's because of the rain.
00:53:26
Speaker 7: How are you feeling about the golf day?
00:53:29
Speaker 6: Jeez, muggy. I like it. I like the mugginess.
00:53:32
Speaker 23: It's reminding me of a scene from Caddyshack where the priest goes out to play and it's just absolutely hammering down.
00:53:38
Speaker 6: And Bill Murray goes.
00:53:39
Speaker 23: I don't think we've seen the worst of it yet.
00:53:45
Speaker 6: So we're going to have some fun. Hey, I heard you talking about what should be free. Yes.
00:53:49
Speaker 23: On a sporting sort of note, what about test cricket being free? The South Africa v Australia test series is, you know, building up unbelievably.
00:53:59
Speaker 9: Can't watch it free.
00:54:00
Speaker 7: Really?
00:54:01
Speaker 11: No.
00:54:01
Speaker 6: See, that's a good point. You can't see it. You can't see it free. It's not there's that much test cricket. No.
00:54:05
Speaker 23: And you go, well, this is one of the biggest series, you know, eight years since the sandpaper gate, and we're not going to be able to watch it free in it. And it also annoys me, and we get texts about it all the time, but Matildas and Socceroos, when they play away.
00:54:17
Speaker 6: Yeah, you can't see it. You can't see it. It's our national team.
00:54:21
Speaker 23: Our national teams, I think we should be able to watch free.
00:54:23
Speaker 7: Great call.
00:54:24
Speaker 6: That's terrific. There's one for you. What's your level of optimism about the South Africa series? I don't know.
00:54:33
Speaker 23: It's funny, we spoke to Bharat Sundararaisan yesterday, and I said, how strong is this South African team and where are they at and all the rest of it?
00:54:40
Speaker 6: He said, well, the quick answer is we don't know. Yeah.
00:54:43
Speaker 23: He said, so it's a bit of an unknown series at the moment. Look, there's a fair bit of grit in our team. I do like the fact that when, I didn't mind Matty Hayden having a crack. I thought he was having a crack at the selectors, but Travis Tedds hit back.
00:54:56
Speaker 6: He took it personally, didn't he? Yes.
00:54:58
Speaker 23: But if that makes you sort of dig in, then I don't mind that. I like the fact that they've got a bit of grit. I will show them.
00:55:05
Speaker 6: Sometimes you need that.
00:55:06
Speaker 9: I don't know.
00:55:06
Speaker 23: You need that needle to go, all right, I'll show you. And I reckon our boys can respond. They've still got a great bowling line-up.
00:55:12
Speaker 6: That's right. And a motivated Travis Head is a pretty scary proposition as well. Indeed it is. He could take it away from them. Don't worry about that. Are you motivated to get out there to Timmy and just... What are you doing the next half hour? I might stay around.
00:55:24
Speaker 8: Yeah, stick around.
00:55:25
Speaker 7: Stick around.
00:55:26
Speaker 6: Join the show.
00:55:26
Speaker 7: We'll be here.
00:55:27
Speaker 6: This is like, there's a bit of our Sanofi royalty getting around here.
00:55:30
Speaker 23: Yeah.
00:55:30
Speaker 6: Bruce Linder, Roger Luters, and you, Timmy. Thank you very much. Do you renew sort of old battles out in the fairways? Oh, there's Chris Jarmer.
00:55:41
Speaker 4: Hello, Chris.
00:55:41
Speaker 23: There is an absolute moment in time where all of that, leaves your body, Will. It's like an exorcism.
00:55:48
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay.
00:55:50
Speaker 23: And then you're like, hey, g'day, bud.
00:55:53
Speaker 9: Yeah, okay.
00:55:54
Speaker 23: Once upon a time, you'd end up at Lenny's or Bojangles or whatever, and you'd see him in the corner.
00:55:58
Speaker 7: Yeah, I hate that bloke.
00:56:02
Speaker 6: Different vibe out here this morning. I love it. Good on you, Tim. All right, we're going to take a break. 5AA News is coming up. We'll wrap the last week in federal politics next.
00:56:09
Speaker 5: 18 minutes to 8. It's getting loose down here. What's happened? I said, from behind, this guy here in the blue looks like Sam Tugwell.
00:56:19
Speaker 2: And Jess said to me, that is Sam Tugwell. You don't miss the tricks, do you?
00:56:37
Speaker 7: I think... Maybe I've had some of the... Did you see the fireball?
00:56:42
Speaker 6: Yeah, there was someone doing a fireball shot next to us. There's a bottle of fireball going around. He offered it to us. I didn't know it was that kind of event, but I'd obviously had mine already.
00:56:49
Speaker 7: Maybe I've been inhaling it.
00:56:50
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right.
00:56:51
Speaker 7: Accidentally.
00:56:53
Speaker 6: What is in these coffees? What kind of day is this, Golf Day? Hey, coming up very shortly, we will be talking about the vaccination program for South Australia's penguins that was announced yesterday. This is a weird one. We'll put this to the minister too. So the South Australian government has approved it, and I think we all get why with the bird flu and such. And there's a colony, a beautiful little colony that we want to protect at Granite Island. The federal government has to sign off on it. I don't know why now we've got an added delay, another layer of government. This is just how Australia works.
00:57:21
Speaker 7: They'll put a tax on it while they're at it.
00:57:22
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right. It's just the rain gauge for penguins. Rail gauge, should I say. We will talk about that very, very shortly. We want you to nominate the seven sensational South Australians over 70 who achieve, lead and inspire. If you know someone over 70 who is sensational, friend, neighbour, colleague, whoever it might be, someone you play golf with maybe, it could be you, nominate them at 5AA. com. au. Highlight their outstanding contribution. Proudly presented by 5AA and AFM World Strategy. Plan the retirement you want to live with the independent advice you can trust. AFMWorldStrategy.com.au. Let's head to Canberra. Nelson Scott is our 5AA Canberra correspondent. Nelson, good morning.
00:58:03
Speaker 16: Stacey Will, good morning.
00:58:04
Speaker 6: It's been a big week. We finally now have three discrete migration policies from what are now the three major parties, according to the polling. How have you seen the fallout from the coalition's announcement?
00:58:19
Speaker 16: Yeah, well, they've lost a bit of support with their classic friends, of course, in the business community. They're concerned that this policy will lead to workforce shortages. The policy basically is they want to reduce net overseas migration to 100,000 people per year for the first two years, and then by the fourth year, that would rise to around 160,000. To compare that to the other major parties, Labor wants to get their number down to $ 225, 000 by the end of the next financial year. One Nation initially wants to go into negative net migration before petering out at a figure around $ 130, 000. The coalition says they'll do this by reducing the number of temporary visa holders, specifically cuts to... student visas, while prioritising skilled workers. And one of the things they have sought to do to distinguish themselves from One Nation is to highlight that this is a and they say budget neutral policy, they say they've worked closely with the Parliamentary Budget Office to get this through. We haven't seen the full costings of this, but they say that they'll make it budget neutral because when you prioritise workers with more skills, they typically pay more tax than low-skilled temporary workers and students. So it'll be interesting to see how this plays out. This is a key classic area of strength for the Coalition, harkens back to The John Howard era of we will decide who comes into this country and the circumstances in which they'll come. They've ceded that ground recently to One Nation. So I think they're trying to make it out like perhaps they seem more like a party of government. They've got this very detailed policy compared to One Nation, and they're hoping that's going to be what resonates with voters. Interestingly, what I'm... hearing within people in the coalition they don't think they'll have to they'll have this policy alone that went on they'll need to create other policies closer to the election but this is an important box to tick because this has been something that's been core to one nation's rise they have to have a strong policy around that and then try to make other policies and other issues closer to the election.
01:00:30
Speaker 6: I reckon there's two components to this because i actually think it's probably the the most well-constructed and clever bit of policy making that the libs have been have done probably since they were in government. I actually think this is a pretty sophisticated approach to what is a very complicated problem. It's a traditional liberal one. You can set that to one side, though, because I just wonder, the politics of it, is any of it going to matter? Is any of it going to reach the people that have already made a decision on this because they're so late to the party?
01:00:56
Speaker 7: And it feels like they've been dragged here by one person.
01:00:58
Speaker 6: Correct, correct.
01:00:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
01:01:02
Speaker 16: It's hard to know. It appears, though, One Nation's won the vibe on this issue, and it almost doesn't matter at this point how detailed a policy is. We see so many times, again, analysts saying, oh, this will kill One Nation, or the cost of policy might slow their rise. Inevitably, One Nation always rises. Of course, politics-wise, they've gone after... Certain visa classes that won't affect their base, they're not going to touch backpacker visas, that's a critical issue for the Nats in regional areas. International students aren't going to vote for the Liberal Party and halving this humanitarian intake hasn't affected them in the past. So there's politics all over this detailed policy as well. You'll be curious to see how it plays out. Angus Taylor hasn't done much to get the vote passed where Susan Lee was. There's been a couple of small rises. So I think it's critical for him to potentially hold that leadership to the next election. Otherwise, we may see a new Liberal leader if that polling doesn't improve.
01:01:59
Speaker 7: And next week, Parliament resumes. Nelson, it seems like card surcharges and the ATO's now refusal to take credit card payments is going to be a big one for the government. There's lots of small business owners down here today at our 5AA Golf Day who aren't too happy about the ATO stopping credit card payments.
01:02:17
Speaker 16: Yeah, a lot of small business owners and increasingly members of the Labour Party. So this goes back to the RBA's put the ban on surcharges. The Prime Minister came out and said, your coffee's going to be cheaper. That doesn't seem to be the case because processing fees don't disappear. Businesses absorb those costs. But on the day that occurred, the ATO announced this credit card ban. Unbeknown to the business community, they're outraged because a lot of small businesses use these credit cards to manage cash flow during difficult times. It can be really... But then yesterday, we've got Housing Minister Claire O'Neill expressing concern over the impact on small business. Small Business Minister Anna Lee said similar things. Andrew Charlton was backing that in. But this is something that isn't going away. The opposition is going to seize on it. I can imagine this being a very big issue in question time next week, and there'll be pressure on the government to backflip. And we'll see what happens there. They've done that with similar issues that continue to linger on, like the cap on allied health care in recent months. So expect this third big issue next week.
01:03:22
Speaker 6: Nelson, thank you. Nelson Scott, our 5AA Canberra correspondent. There's a few others I can think of. The allied health cap for veterans is a great one. But this government post-budget has shown a remarkable, demonstrated a remarkable capacity to not understand any of the flow-on effects of the policy decisions they make. discretionary testamentary trusts backflipped. They didn't see how the CGD change is going to change that. They didn't understand how their own grandfathering accommodations were going to make a widow's tax effectively come in if properties changed ownership in the event someone's spouse died. So they had to backflip on that. They forecast changes to the price of property that said property will just grow a bit slower as a result of this. It's collapsing before our eyes. And now we've got The credit card payment ban.
01:04:07
Speaker 7: Your coffee will be cheaper.
01:04:08
Speaker 6: No, it's not. They seem to be supremely ignorant to the outcome of the policy that they champion. And I wonder if we're going to get another backflip on this one.
01:04:18
Speaker 7: Surely they should be explored before the policy is implemented.
01:04:20
Speaker 6: I would have thought.
01:04:20
Speaker 7: Or even proposed publicly. You try and think through all of the results first.
01:04:24
Speaker 6: It blows my mind. Claire O'Neill is right on this. The Housing Minister is absolutely right. Because guaranteed her office will be inundated with small business owners saying, I'm sorry. Why are we doing this?
01:04:36
Speaker 11: Yeah.
01:04:36
Speaker 6: So now, if we have a cash flow problem, we have no capacity. So the problem for people to understand it is, if you're paying your tax with a credit card, you're probably doing so because cash flow-wise, you might not be liquid at that point in time. Knowing you will be, but it just gives you extra flexibility. Robbing businesses for that flexibility means they're going to be caught in situations where, at certain times, they might not have cash on hand in their current account or whatever to pay tax.
01:04:59
Speaker 7: And their BAS as well.
01:05:00
Speaker 6: And their BAS.
01:05:01
Speaker 7: There's different bills throughout the year that small businesses have to pay that a lot of them use credit cards for.
01:05:06
Speaker 6: Alright, we're going to take a quick break. We're going to talk penguins in a moment and we're going to try to get them vaccines to make sure they can survive bird flu. This is good. The Environment Minister will be our guest on the other side of the break. Six minutes to eight. The state government wants to start vaccinating penguins in South Australia against the H5 bird flu. Environment Minister Emily Burke joins us. Minister, good morning.
01:05:42
Speaker 17: Good morning. Thank you for having me.
01:05:44
Speaker 6: Why do we need the federal government to sign off on this?
01:05:47
Speaker 17: Well, the federal government, it's a national program. So all vaccination programs across every other state and territory also go through a national agenda because this is a new vaccine. It hasn't really been used. anywhere in abundance before, particularly in Australia. So we just need to make sure we've got the right procedures in order. We sign off on it at a state level, which we now have. So we've approved it with our chief vet in South Australia, and now it goes on to be approved at a national level with their chief vet as well. So it's just, I guess, a check and balance that we've got everything in order. And we're pleased as they do have confirmed that we have at a South Australian level approved that we can do a vaccination program here. And we now just wait for that final tick off so we can get going.
01:06:35
Speaker 7: How long do you think it'll take?
01:06:38
Speaker 21: We hope it won't.
01:06:38
Speaker 22: Take too long.
01:06:39
Speaker 17: We've put a fair bit of effort into it and worked with the federal government. So we'll continue to work with them to say, you know, what else do you need to say that you feel confident that everything's in order? But as we have with the Cleland Wildlife Park where we've had an approval there, we now have vaccinated over 150 birds across 30 different species and also worked with the Adelaide Zoo and that approval process has been ticked off and their first round of vaccinations have been rolled out as well. So we know that we're on the right path to getting it approved but at a state level we've ticked the boxes that.
01:07:13
Speaker 18: We need to.
01:07:15
Speaker 6: I hope they show a bit more urgency than they did with the algal bloom. So is this vaccine, can it extend it more than, is it specifically designed for penguins or will we see this vaccine used for other birds that are potentially vulnerable?
01:07:28
Speaker 17: So what we've been doing is going through birds in captivity first because it is a lot easier. We have to give a vaccine twice to the same bird within three or four weeks of each other. So You can understand in the wild that is very much more challenging. You've got to catch the same bird not only once but twice. So that's why it is a bit of a different step. We've gone from birds in captivity and then now going to wild birds. Our penguins particularly are a little bit different to the penguins on Phillip Island. They're not used to engaging with humans probably as much as they are in Phillip Island. And we're also looking at other colonies on Kangaroo Island as well as part of this approval process. So when we look at all the vaccine options that we're getting for approval, the Adelaide Zoo, we've already started vaccinating little penguins there. So that's also been playing into our research. So we're not just vaccinating them at the Adelaide Zoo. We're also doing blood tests to see how they're responding to the vaccine as well because this is new. Vaccine has always been one tool in this story of the birth flu. We can't stop birth flu, but we can try and find every tool possible to help slow down the spread. And that's why we've done a lot of preparedness work as well before birth flu was even spoken about in the last two years.
01:08:51
Speaker 7: Okay, Minister, thanks for your time. Nicola Santafanti has called in the Shadow Minister for Primary Industries. Nicola Santafanti, how does your party feel about vaccines at the moment? Pro, anti? Does it make a difference if it's humans or penguins?
01:09:08
Speaker 20: Yeah, morning, Stacey, and well, look, we welcome this step, but I think many of your listeners would be thinking, you know, why is it taking so long? Victoria began vaccinating its penguin population back in mid-August, yet Here we are months later and the South Australian government's still talking about it. It's still not confirmed. And we don't have a clear start date. I mean, these are vulnerable birds facing a very real threat. And we need to just move beyond announcements and get on with delivering protection because.
01:09:36
Speaker 6: So, Victoria, what, they're using the same vaccine to us?
01:09:41
Speaker 8: Yeah, absolutely.
01:09:42
Speaker 20: That's my understanding.
01:09:43
Speaker 6: Why do we need approval then?
01:09:46
Speaker 3: This is the question.
01:09:47
Speaker 20: This is the question, Will.
01:09:48
Speaker 11: I mean.
01:09:48
Speaker 20: You know, an announcement doesn't protect a single penguin delivering a vaccination program.
01:09:54
Speaker 9: It does.
01:09:54
Speaker 20: And, you know, we need a clear start date. Victoria went months ago. Where's the South Australian government with this?
01:10:02
Speaker 6: That's, well, that's a very fair question. Thank you, Nicola Sendevani. That's a very fair question. That's just bureaucracy gone mad. That's what that is.
01:10:10
Speaker 7: We didn't really get an answer as to how long it'll take.
01:10:12
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, I wonder who's got carriage of it. Probably Murray Watt. I was going to say, if it's Murray Watt, I wouldn't want to be a penguin. 5AA News is coming up. Let's take a quick break. Breaking at eight on the other side of it. I heard my mama cry.
01:10:29
Speaker 5: Knock down.
01:10:30
Speaker 7: Build two.
01:10:30
Speaker 5: With Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes.
01:10:36
Speaker 7: They do it all for you.
01:10:37
Speaker 2: Real Goodies with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
01:10:43
Speaker 6: Eight minutes after eight, breaking eight coming up in just a moment. We're going to play a little game of nearest to the pin very shortly. It will be golf related. There was a lot of yelling just there out in the course.
01:10:53
Speaker 7: Oh, there's high-fiving.
01:10:55
Speaker 6: We didn't see a hole in one. Did someone just maybe chip in? Oh, it was a birdie, was it, says Jess. Jess is keeping an eagle eye on everything that's happening on the course. It's like our eyes on the course at the moment.
01:11:03
Speaker 7: I can see envy in your eyes, Jess.
01:11:05
Speaker 6: Yeah. A birdie right in front of us on the 10th. I think that's the, we think that's the 10th. Oh, no, the 9th. That's the 9th green. The 10th is just there. Very excited.
01:11:13
Speaker 7: Can you smell the rain?
01:11:14
Speaker 11: Yes.
01:11:14
Speaker 7: It's not raining, but the temperature just changed and I can almost smell it coming in.
01:11:21
Speaker 6: Actually, it can't be petrichor because that's after the rain hits the ground, I think. I'm trying to remember Jane Riley's lessons that she used to always teach us. But yeah, you can smell the rain.
01:11:28
Speaker 7: You can smell it.
01:11:29
Speaker 6: It's all the way. Well, think about the rain because that might put you in a good position for our nearest to the pin very, very shortly. Feedback Friday, of course, after 8.30 as well. And we'll wrap things up with the top five of the week. Lots of text coming through. We should just mark the fact that we have received a stack of texts like this one from Jen, who says, I'm utterly shocked for Ginny and her hospital experience. Ginny, our guest after seven this morning. Mally promised one thing to fix ramping, which would also allow a 71-year-old patient to lay on the floor. The other major issue is the lack of confidentiality for the other patient being treated in the room. It's disgusting on every level. Yes, it is, Jen. Thank you. The point that Jen's making there is something that Ginny told us, that not only was she lying on the ground the entire time, whilst being treated. 71 years of age, mind you. The guy next to her was being treated as well, and his doctor's explaining the prognosis and what's going on with his private health condition. She said, well, I was privy to the whole thing.
01:12:23
Speaker 7: Here's your treatment that you need. This is your medication that you might need. She knows every detail about him and his situation at the moment.
01:12:30
Speaker 6: Just appalling. Michael's got a suggestion for Meat Tray Friday, thanks to Goodwood Quality Meats. We're asking you about things that should be free but aren't. He says, I think... something that should be free is gravy included in meals at hotels. These days it's generally become an extra and that is totally wrong and it is un-Australian. Michael, you're in the running to win a meat tray. So with you. Keep them coming in, 8223 0000 or text us on 044808 1395.
01:12:59
Speaker 7: And now our meat tray Friday today is what should be free and isn't, is partly inspired by councils charging for parking or the proposal to charge for parking in Harndorf and We've been talking about parking in the city as well and the cost of doing that. Parking on Gooja Street could get more difficult very soon because there's a multi-million dollar upgrade about to start. And some local businesses are pretty unhappy about the consultation process because it seems like it could be changing quite significantly. Susanna Wong is the manager of Wahing Restaurant, a really well-known restaurant on Gooja Street, and she joins you this morning. Good morning to you, Susanna.
01:13:40
Speaker 24: Good morning, Stacey. Good morning, Will.
01:13:43
Speaker 7: So were you directly consulted on these plans for Gooja Street?
01:13:48
Speaker 24: So when Townsville came to us, it was basically, it wasn't a consult. It was just to.
01:13:54
Speaker 16: Inform what was.
01:13:57
Speaker 24: Going to happen on Gooja Street. So it was quite, we were sort of bombarded in a way.
01:14:05
Speaker 7: And what is the new plan that you're aware of? What do you think are the key changes that will affect you and other business owners on the street?
01:14:14
Speaker 24: So from what I saw from the plans, what they will do is from Morfitt Street to King William, they're going to redo the whole entire street. They're going to make the footpath wider. So they're going to basically remove a lot of the car parks on the street parking so the road will be a lot more narrower.
01:14:37
Speaker 12: Right.
01:14:38
Speaker 7: Make the footpaths wider, remove the car parks. And about outdoor dining as well, there's some changes to the way you can have outdoor dining?
01:14:48
Speaker 24: So a few of the restaurants and the pubs on Goodyear Street, we have fixed tables. So they've been fixed there for, for an example, our restaurants. is 21 years old. Those tables have been fixed in there for 21 years. We've changed them over the years, but they've been fixed. So they want no fixed furniture whatsoever. So it's a lot more lugging.
01:15:12
Speaker 7: So I imagine there'll be a cost to change that over.
01:15:16
Speaker 24: Yes, because we pay for our own tables and chairs and they're commercial tables and chairs. So they cost a lot more than your domestic tables and chairs. because they're meant to survive the outdoor, they're meant to survive people sitting on top of them. But when we first were told of that, I compromised with council. I said, okay, that's fine. If you're going to remove our tables, then you should replace our tables at your cost of my choosing, which I thought was quite fair. But then they came back to us, And they said, okay, no, we can't replace your tables, but we will waive the outdoor dining fee duration of the project and a year after, which still doesn't cover the cost of the tables. But I thought, okay, we're coming somewhere. And then eventually we got another email saying, no, now we're going to just waive a three-month that's meant to be in front of your restaurant, the project, and then a year after.
01:16:22
Speaker 6: Oh, wow. Okay.
01:16:24
Speaker 7: And so the council says that they have done consultation. Are you aware of how widespread that consultation was and why businesses weren't sort of asked ahead of time before the plan being put forward?
01:16:37
Speaker 24: So they informed me that they even talked to people in Port Lincoln and people in Port Lincoln think it's a great idea. But then every customer that I've spoken to, and a lot of them living in the CBD, didn't even realise this was going on.
01:16:58
Speaker 7: Right. And it sounds like there'll be a lot of works in front of your restaurant for a while, which won't be ideal.
01:17:06
Speaker 24: No, it won't be ideal. It's just the same as when they did Field Street, which is around the corner. It's just the amount of dirt, noise. Yeah, and then traffic chaos.
01:17:21
Speaker 7: So what happens now for you? You just kind of have to lump it and live with it, or is there anything you can do about it?
01:17:28
Speaker 24: Well, we've tried, because they've asked us, like, you know, of our opinion and emailed them, and we've done that multiple times of what we think, and then all we got is an automated email saying that, yes, we received your email, and that's it.
01:17:44
Speaker 3: Wow.
01:17:44
Speaker 16: Hmm.
01:17:46
Speaker 7: Well, keep in touch. We'd love to see if there are any updates to this. Susanna, thanks for your time.
01:17:52
Speaker 24: Thank you, Stacey.
01:17:58
Speaker 7: Susanna Wong there, the manager at Wahing.
01:18:00
Speaker 6: It just feels like businesses in the city have this antagonistic relationship with the council that ostensibly exists to represent them.
01:18:08
Speaker 7: I just can't fathom how hard it would be to go and knock on the doors.
01:18:16
Speaker 7: You know when they're open? Because you set their trading hours. Put a letter under the front door to say, hey, we're planning an upgrade. Here's the link to the consultation if you'd like to have your say. And, you know, Susanna makes a good point. A lot of councils do do this. We were talking about parking in Harndorf, and neither of us live in Harndorf, but we've got views on maybe how it should be planned out. So fair enough for someone who visits Adelaide CBD to get a say in consultation, but you would think those who are directly affected, directly impacted, businesses who pay a higher rate in their rates to the Adelaide City Council should get more of a say. Maybe their considerations should be weighted higher than someone who lives in Port Lincoln.
01:18:55
Speaker 6: Especially when, and maybe it's a byproduct of a system where the business gets a vote and so does every individual resident or so does everyone in an apartment tower and it just dilutes the overall power of businesses to make change. But It just seems remarkable that they're constantly having to fight to get recognition when they exist as, for me and for you and for people who live outside the city, the reason we go to the city is to interact with businesses.
01:19:21
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's not to visit people in apartment buildings.
01:19:23
Speaker 6: Yeah, these aren't some sort of corporate entities that are just printing cash and whinging about some things getting in their way. They are the reason we go to the city. There wouldn't be a city that exists like we understand it if these businesses... Couldn't exist. It just boggles the mind. 17 minutes after 8, we're going to take a break. We're going to play nearest to the pin in just a moment. There's a lot of yelling out in the course.
01:19:46
Speaker 7: Is that good or bad with golf?
01:19:48
Speaker 6: Something's either going really well or something's going really badly. We're not sure. Could be either way at the golf day. We'll take a break, though, and come back with more. That'd be great. I feel for these guys teeing off right.
01:19:57
Speaker 7: In front of us all the time.
01:19:58
Speaker 6: We try to look the other way.
01:20:01
Speaker 5: Knock down, build two with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
01:20:10
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
01:20:13
Speaker 6: 22 after 8, the meat tray, thanks to Goodwood Quality Meats, are asking you things that should be free that aren't. How about this from Mike?
01:20:21
Speaker 7: Oh, I'm outraged.
01:20:23
Speaker 6: Mike says, good morning, Will and Stacey. Recently ordered a calzone from the Northeastern Suburbs pub and noticed a small bowl of tomato sauce was an extra $ 7 where it was just part of the dish every other time I'd ordered it. It's a bit like ordering a pasta dish and they want to charge you extra for the sauce. I wouldn't be going back, Mike.
01:20:42
Speaker 7: No.
01:20:43
Speaker 6: We're going to vote with our feet about this kind of stuff.
01:20:45
Speaker 7: When a meal is expected to come with an item, like I think a pie or a sausage roll is expected to come with sauce.
01:20:52
Speaker 6: Absolutely.
01:20:52
Speaker 7: A calzone is expected to come with the sauce on top. You're right. That's like ordering a lasagna, but you've got to pay extra for the cheese.
01:20:58
Speaker 6: It is outrageous.
01:21:00
Speaker 7: No, no, no.
01:21:01
Speaker 6: What is the ACCC doing? 23 after 8. Let's play a little game of nearest to the pins.
01:21:10
Speaker 2: That's one of the great moments in Live Golf history.
01:21:14
Speaker 6: Nearest to the pin.
01:21:16
Speaker 2: On 5AA Breakfast.
01:21:18
Speaker 6: Makes perfect sense here at the Glenelg Golf Club. A little game of nearest to the pin. We have Cheesefest tickets to give away next, not this weekend, but next weekend. For you and three friends, Cheesefest runs both days, the 17th and the 18th. You can get tickets at cheesefest.com.au. Great event. We love it. It's impossible to have a bad time at Cheesefest. If you like cheese and wine, frankly, who doesn't?
01:21:37
Speaker 12: Who doesn't?
01:21:37
Speaker 6: 8223 0000, get calling now. We want you to tell us how much rain we'll get in the airport gauge between 8 o'clock, so we've already had 24 minutes, and midday, which is the sort of rough time that our golf day runs. How much rain are we going to get? You can look at the radar, take a guess to the decimal point. How many millimetres?
01:22:01
Speaker 12: Millimetres.
01:22:02
Speaker 6: Millimetres. 8223 0000, nearest to the pin, how many millimetres of rain between 8 a.m. and midday today are we going to get, and we can win Cheesefest tickets in the process.
01:22:15
Speaker 7: Little tip, when we spoke to the Weather Bureau, they said we were expecting a fair bit of rain, but the big chunk of it would be coming tonight.
01:22:21
Speaker 6: That's right.
01:22:21
Speaker 7: So there is a rain band coming this morning, but the bigger one's tonight. So maybe that will inform your guess.
01:22:29
Speaker 6: That's a good point. Let's go to Ridgehaven. David, how much rain do you think we're going to get?
01:22:34
Speaker 13: Eight and a half mils.
01:22:36
Speaker 6: Please eight and a half eight and a half thank you uh let's go to yuri in beaumont how much rain uh here in the western suburbs 6.2 6.2 thank you yuri it's a lot of predictions of a serious early down early downpour just to be clear we've made 25 minutes without any rain that's uh graham and ingle farm good morning good.

Speaker 6: Okay. Thank you, Marge. You're in the running to win the Cheesefest tickets. Trevor in Port Norlunga South. What say you? 3.1.
01:23:39
Speaker 13: 3.1?
01:23:40
Speaker 6: Is that the low number so far?
01:23:43
Speaker 7: That's a low number.
01:23:44
Speaker 6: So what's the range? 3.1, the low number?
01:23:46
Speaker 12: To 8.5.
01:23:46
Speaker 6: To 8.5. I'll tell you what.
01:23:49
Speaker 7: We've got to guess on the text line for 0.0.
01:23:52
Speaker 6: They're winning at the moment. If it's 8.5, Timmy Ginniver is going to knock me out of the sports show tonight. He might be drowned. Mark in Finden, good morning. Good morning. 3.5. 3.5. We might stay in Finden and go to Keith.
01:24:08
Speaker 22: Yeah, I'm saying 0.8.
01:24:08
Speaker 3: Oh, that's the low.
01:24:11
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that's clever. Let's go to Summit and Park. Paul, you'll know the local conditions.
01:24:16

Speaker 8: 2.9.
01:24:35
Speaker 7: I think... Oh, OK.
01:24:38
Speaker 6: Are we going to take any more? Maybe one more. Again, local, Glen Gowrie. Marion, good morning.
01:24:44
Speaker 14: Point one.
01:24:46
Speaker 6: Point one. Point one. Thank you, Marion. You are the low watermark.
01:24:51
Speaker 12: Yep.
01:24:51
Speaker 6: Mind the pond. So good luck to you and everyone who registered in nearest to the pin. Could be you going to Cheesefest. We will be announcing the winner... Monday morning, we'll give those tickets away. Then if you missed out with Nearest to the Pin, do not despair. We have more opportunities to win after 8.30 because Feedback Friday is coming up in a moment. Three great prizes, four simple questions, no wrong answers. We might squeeze in a Meat Tray Friday entry before we get there, though. Mark in West Croydon, what's something that's not free that should be?
01:25:20
Speaker 3: Well, what used to be free is no longer. When I was a kid, the first time that I ever went to the show back in the 60s, My father was furious because we were paying money for show bags, and he forever continually reminds us that back in his day, show bags were free. They were called sample bags.
01:25:40
Speaker 6: They were sample bags. Yeah, exactly right.
01:25:44
Speaker 3: And Dad would say the sample bags were absolutely chock-a-block full of stuff that people were giving away.
01:25:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, isn't it funny?
01:25:54
Speaker 3: They even struggled to give the show bags or sample bags away.
01:25:58
Speaker 6: Well, your father would be unable to sleep if he saw what they cost these days. Thank you, Mark. Let's go to Beaumont. Frances, what's something that's not free that should be?
01:26:10
Speaker 12: I absolutely resent being asked if I'd like to buy a bag when I've bought seven items in a chemist or five things at Target. I'm not going to buy a bag that advertises their shop for them.
01:26:24
Speaker 11: No.
01:26:25
Speaker 6: Yep. Thank you, Frances. Keep them coming in. We just got momentarily distracted because Chris Jarman just turned up and he owns a putter that is the Happy Gilmore putter. Shaped like a hockey stick. He's got a.
01:26:37
Speaker 7: He's got a happy sock on it as well.
01:26:39
Speaker 6: He's got a happy sock on it. He literally has the Happy Gilmore putter. I've never seen one of those in the wild before. I didn't know that was a thing. Is that regulation? I'm not sure. It doesn't matter. It's the 5AA Golf Day. We can make the rules for today. Let's take a break. 5AA News is coming up. Feedback Friday in a moment. And we will announce a meat tray Friday winter before nine.
01:26:59
Speaker 2: Knockdown.
01:27:00
Speaker 5: Bill 2. With Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment.
01:27:05
Speaker 7: Metro Homes. They do it all for you.
01:27:07
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
01:27:12
Speaker 6: Coming up to 20 minutes to nine, it's almost Feedback Friday time. Three spots available if you want to get calling now. 8223 0000 is the number. We've a Smeg toaster, a $ 50 Colac voucher, and a $ 50 Gramazio Foods meat tray to give away. Everyone wins a prize. There are no wrong answers. A lot of fun. Get calling right now. First three callers through will contest for Feedback Friday. 8223 0000.
01:27:34
Speaker 7: We've been getting some text messages following Breaking at Eight, and I just want to read this one out from Colin. Adelaide City businesses contribute around 70% of the total rates received. The issue often is getting businesses to vote. Outside furniture for food and beverages should be free, provided it's safe for pedestrians and motorists, period. Having vibrancy and ambience in the city, inviting consumers is the key. We've got the technology to accommodate by vehicle licence plate to allow first-time slot free and then move on, no matter whether it's two hours, one hour, et cetera. They all sound like pretty reasonable suggestions. Colin Shearing. advocate for small SA businesses. He said he'll be running for City Council in 2027. Well, that would.
01:28:15
Speaker 6: Be someone focused on the businesses of the council, wouldn't it? Thank you, Colin. That all makes a lot of sense. One Feedback Friday spot available, 8223 0000. Let's take a meat tray Friday call first. Mike's on the line. Mike, what's something that should be free that isn't?
01:28:29
Speaker 13: Yeah, meat should be free, and it will be if I win the prize.
01:28:32
Speaker 6: Thank you, Mike. I don't know if Goodwood Quality Meats will like the sound. of that, but they have provided the meat, right? Exactly right. Feedback Friday, a couple of spots available.
01:28:47
Speaker 12: 8223 0000.
01:28:47
Speaker 6: The SMEG appliance is always part of the equation. Building or renovating your first choice. Should be visiting the SMEG showroom. Definitely distributors taste the difference with SMEG. But speaking further to Mike's point, we have meat on the agenda for the Feedback Friday as well. Gramazio Foods, who you might recall, they've done many meat trays. Our only celiac-certified butcher in South Australia. They're at Burnside Village, Golden Grove Village as well, and online at gramaziofoods.com.au, changing the perception of gluten-free foods. All right, let's get into the feedback, shall we? Feedback! Let's start things in Nord. James, good morning to you.
01:29:35
Speaker 8: Good morning, Will.
01:29:36
Speaker 14: By the way, I'm now a North Adelaide resident.
01:29:40
Speaker 6: Are you?
01:29:41
Speaker 4: I am.
01:29:42
Speaker 6: What's your take on noise pollution, James?
01:29:45
Speaker 14: Well, interesting because we have the flight path right over top of us, but it's amazing how quick that noise goes away.
01:29:55
Speaker 6: Yeah, I agree with that. It does. You just adjust to it. That can be your first question, James, actually. You'll have a good insight on this one, too, given your current lodgings. How often do you pay for parking?
01:30:06
Speaker 25: Ah, well, that's... Two-hour event parking here in North Adelaide, and I'm a footy and cricket member, so it can be very dodgy if.
01:30:20
Speaker 14: You don't have any parking out in front of your street.
01:30:23
Speaker 20: Yeah.
01:30:24
Speaker 14: I choose not to pay. I choose to walk extra.
01:30:28
Speaker 6: You paint a very pretty picture, James, being an Adelaide Oval member and living in North Adelaide. I reckon it sounds like a recipe for a lot of fun. What's your go-to hobby?
01:30:38
Speaker 14: Well, my go-to hobby is very poor golf.
01:30:43
Speaker 6: We need you for a golf day.
01:30:45
Speaker 14: Yeah, I would love to have done that, but my biggest handicap is my golf swing.
01:30:52
Speaker 6: Just lastly, James, we had... Well, we do still have Saturn in a very observable position at the moment in the night sky or the early morning sky. Do you have a favourite planet?
01:31:03
Speaker 14: Oh, I love the Bowie song Life on Mars, so I think Mars would be my favourite.
01:31:11
Speaker 6: Mars has always captivated humanity. James, thank you. Let's go to Prospect.
01:31:15
Speaker 7: I think that was the drinks cart just going by there.
01:31:18
Speaker 6: That's a dangerous thing. Handing out some drinks. It's 8.43 in the morning. A few of them have already loaded up. Rob, good morning. Good morning, hello. Rob, would you offer.
01:31:28
Speaker 21: I was wondering with that last question, my famous plan is Uranus.
01:31:33
Speaker 6: Thank you, Rob.
01:31:34
Speaker 7: I was waiting for a bit of a judge to do that.
01:31:36
Speaker 6: Thank you, Rob.
01:31:37
Speaker 7: Yeah, sorry.
01:31:39
Speaker 6: Rob, would you offer up a room at Government House for lease, if you could? Matt Abraham would sell the whole thing.
01:31:46
Speaker 13: Oh, absolutely, yeah.
01:31:47
Speaker 21: It would return good money.
01:31:49
Speaker 16: I think.
01:31:50
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it would. Your rent would be pretty solid.
01:31:52
Speaker 1: When did you last go to.
01:31:56
Speaker 6: When did you last go to David Jones, Rob?
01:31:59
Speaker 21: A long, long time ago. Would be over 30, 40 years, I reckon.
01:32:04
Speaker 6: Wow. Yeah, well, maybe that's why, Rob. They're having some difficulties at the moment, old DJs. Have you got a favourite show on Channel 10?
01:32:13
Speaker 21: I never watch Channel 10, sorry. I don't think there's much on there, so I don't think the regional towns are going to miss out much on losing that.
01:32:22
Speaker 6: Very good, Rob. You knew the context of the question. I love Gogglebox. Gogglebox. Do you suffer from hay fever, Rob?
01:32:29
Speaker 13: Not really, no.
01:32:32
Speaker 21: I do get, I suppose I do a little bit, you know, in the conditions, I get watery eyes. So I guess I attribute it probably to either tear ducts or hay fever, I'm not sure.
01:32:44
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, that makes sense. Thank you, Rob. We had that interesting story earlier in the week that the, The correlation between the pollen report and how it affects individuals is not as strong as you might think because the sensitivity is so variable that you might say there's not much or there's a lot. And for a lot of people, that's going to be totally irrelevant because it may or may not set you off. Thank you, Rob. Let's go to Terry in Kupanda. Morning, Terry.
01:33:07
Speaker 13: Yes, good morning.
01:33:09
Speaker 6: What's the sport that you're into now that footy season's over?
01:33:12
Speaker 1: That would have to be eight ball.
01:33:17
Speaker 6: Eight ball. You a bit of a shark, Terry?
01:33:21
Speaker 1: No, not particularly. I have my own table, so the winter man is outside under the veranda, so when the sun's out, the guns are out, and my stick's out of the cue rack.
01:33:34
Speaker 6: Oh, that sounds magnificent, Terry. Do you find golf exciting or boring?
01:33:39
Speaker 1: Oh, I love golf.
01:33:43
Speaker 6: We're going to make feedback for our prize next week as you all get to come to golf day.
01:33:48
Speaker 1: Yes.
01:33:50
Speaker 6: Have you been sick this winter, Terry?
01:33:53
Speaker 1: Yes, I have, actually, yes. I've been sick of winter.
01:33:56
Speaker 6: Oh, that's so good. Well, it's sort of over, except for the start of next week.
01:34:02
Speaker 15: Yeah.
01:34:03
Speaker 6: Harndorf, overrated or underrated?
01:34:05
Speaker 1: Overrated by about 30 kilometres. I'm a Kapunda boy.
01:34:11
Speaker 12: Yeah.
01:34:18
Speaker 1: It might be a bit further than 30, but, you know, free parking outside of that area.
01:34:25
Speaker 7: Yeah.
01:34:26
Speaker 6: That's actually very good. Thank you, Terry. Appreciate it.
01:34:29
Speaker 7: Imagine if they implemented paid parking in the main street of Kapunga.
01:34:32
Speaker 6: That would not go down well. There would be a riot then. We also have the Colac $ 50 voucher at the Colac Port Adelaide from the relaxed bars of Bootleg Social with share plates and wood-fired pizzas to premium dining at Elliot's or cocktails and waterfront views upstairs. The Colac has something for everyone. Who gets what, Stace?
01:34:50
Speaker 18: All right.
01:34:51
Speaker 7: I reckon Terry gets the Smeg toaster.
01:34:54
Speaker 6: Yep.
01:34:54
Speaker 7: James gets the Gramazio Foods meat tray and Rob gets the $ 50 Colac voucher.
01:34:59
Speaker 6: All right. Brilliant work, everyone. Thank you for being part of Feedback Friday. We're going to catch a break and check traffic. We will give away the meat tray and count down the week's top five in just a moment.
01:35:12
Speaker 5: Knock down, build two with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
01:35:20
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast. Nine minutes to nine. We have a Meat Tray Friday winner to announce. We might as well do that first, I think. Big thanks to Goodwood Quality Meats. The more coming through on the deck.
01:35:34
Speaker 7: Before we announce a winner, yeah, I just want to mention a couple others that came through, and I think this is a great one from Vardis. A sample slice of Smiley Fritz to the kids should be free.
01:35:46
Speaker 6: Can I tell Vardis, the sandwich bar at the West Lakes Food Court, I went there with Rosie about a year ago and they saw her and they went, time to give her some, has she ever had Fritz? And I said, actually, she hasn't. They went, well, here you go. Smiley Fritz, gave it for free. Legend. Some people still do it, Vardis.
01:36:04
Speaker 7: Shout out to them. And Jay has the same thought that I did. Back in the 60s, grocery bags were free. Now they charge you 30 cents for a paper bag.
01:36:13
Speaker 6: That is outrageous. I think you win the meat tray for that one, actually. Goodwood Quality Meats. Luke, Dave and the team, they do a wonderful job. 121 Goodwood Road at Goodwood. Their meat tray is always absolutely exceptional. Who wins it this morning?
01:36:27
Speaker 7: Oh, it's been really hard.
01:36:29
Speaker 6: You got some honourable mentions?
01:36:30
Speaker 7: Yeah. Honourable mention for Gary in Salisbury for shopping centre gift vouchers.
01:36:36
Speaker 6: Oh, the surcharge. Yeah, the surcharge. The processing fee or whatever. Yes, that was ridiculous.
01:36:40
Speaker 7: And Warwick and Mitchum for Jared Roughead should be free if the Crows aren't going to make any changes during the trade show.
01:36:47
Speaker 6: Just let him run free.
01:36:49
Speaker 7: But I think Dave in Elizabeth for saying football on the TV should be free.
01:36:54
Speaker 6: Yes. Yeah, it feels like that one is heading in the same direction as free parking in Arndorf. Something you'll be able to tell your kids about. All right, should we do the top five?
01:37:04
Speaker 7: Yep, let's do it.
01:37:04
Speaker 6: Let's do it.
01:37:06
Speaker 2: The top five of the week.
01:37:08
Speaker 6: Here's the number five spot.
01:37:11
Speaker 7: David Koch.
01:37:14
Speaker 2: On 5AA Breakfast.
01:37:21
Speaker 6: Eight to seven. David Conch, Port Adelaide Football Club chairman, compared to market economic director, about to join us. I pushed the button a little bit early. He's not quite there. He's coming up in a second. Don't worry.
01:37:30
Speaker 7: It happens to everyone. We're getting a lot of text messages in. Very pleased with the governor announcement. Meredith, what a perfect choice, Commissioner. You'll be brilliant at your new role.
01:37:46
Speaker 15: Stop it.
01:37:47
Speaker 6: So I didn't say anything, Stacey. It was you. This is what happens when Koshi's not available. Things go off the rails. Koshi wasn't available.
01:37:55
Speaker 7: I was just trying to push through.
01:37:57
Speaker 6: Stacey, I mean, she's just wonderfully supportive, and that's a beautiful thing. Number four.
01:38:04
Speaker 7: Nicola Santafanti, how does your party feel about vaccines at the moment? Pro, anti? Does it make a difference if it's humans or penguins?
01:38:11
Speaker 20: Yeah, morning, Stacey. And, well, look, we welcome this step, but I think many of your listeners would be thinking, you know, why is it taking so long?
01:38:20
Speaker 6: I think it was an exciting thing to contemplate, the anti-vax penguin movement.
01:38:23
Speaker 7: Well, you know, at least we now know the Liberal Party in South Australia is pro-penguin vaccine. We're not sure how they... stand on human vaccines, but we'll find out.
01:38:32
Speaker 6: A lot of clarity around penguins. Number three spot. Kate, what's a saying people get wrong?
01:38:36
Speaker 3: My husband always gets this wrong.
01:38:39
Speaker 10: Whenever he's talking about something, he says, do they have to be so renal.
01:38:42
Speaker 17: About it instead of anal?
01:38:44
Speaker 24: So, yeah, he always mentions the renal.
01:38:47
Speaker 6: Does he do that on purpose, Kate?
01:38:49
Speaker 15: No, no, no, no.
01:38:51
Speaker 6: Hey, Kate, I get the sense you've been married for a long time.
01:38:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably too long.
01:38:56
Speaker 6: LAUGHTER We had a few people dobbing in partners for sayings they get wrong earlier in the week.
01:39:03
Speaker 7: That was inspired by Rowie. Put that in your bank and smoke it.
01:39:06
Speaker 6: Put that in your bank and smoke it, Stephen Rowie. The number two spot.
01:39:10
Speaker 9: And the word was used a bit later. Ms, Ms, and I like doing this.
01:39:14
Speaker 26: Ms Organic Growth. I just want to know Ms Organic Growth. How many Norm Smiths has.
01:39:20
Speaker 9: Mr. Growth won, or how many Browns?
01:39:22
Speaker 6: I just thought I'd.
01:39:24
Speaker 26: Ask you, Will, how many center square clearances has organic growth done? They need to get and try and get Will Day this year.
01:39:34
Speaker 9: I don't know. You had all the money for Zach Bailey.
01:39:35
Speaker 6: Why would Will Day leave?
01:39:37
Speaker 9: I don't know.
01:39:37
Speaker 26: But please, please, please, here's a plea from me on behalf of all the fans, including you.
01:39:43
Speaker 9: Will, back there.
01:39:45
Speaker 26: Organic growth will do three-fifths of F all for our club next year.
01:39:50
Speaker 6: Boom.
01:39:51
Speaker 9: Put that in the bank and smoke it.
01:39:53
Speaker 6: There it is. That's the origin of the put that bank and smoke it. We all said the curiosity of Rowe using the non-specific, what are they called?
01:40:01
Speaker 7: Gender neutral.
01:40:01
Speaker 11: No.
01:40:02
Speaker 6: But it's not because Ms is just not, if you're not declaring you're married or not, isn't it? Yes. But I know the point he was making about organic growth.
01:40:12
Speaker 7: But he was being very specific about the... It's not a pronoun.
01:40:15
Speaker 6: Yeah, what is it? It's some denim.
01:40:17
Speaker 7: Miz instead of mister? That went over my head. I didn't quite understand it.
01:40:21
Speaker 6: It's just rowdy. Number one spot. The incoming Governor of South Australia, our.
01:40:34
Speaker 23: Police Commissioner, Grant Stevens.
01:40:37
Speaker 6: Commissioner, good morning to you.
01:40:39
Speaker 9: Well, good morning and If that's a better background theme song than I'm Too Sexy.
01:40:45
Speaker 6: Was that what you were requesting? No, no, that's my ringtone. Oh, that's your ringtone. It is too.
01:40:51
Speaker 7: It went off during COVID press conference.
01:40:52
Speaker 6: I remember that. Yeah, yeah. So that's followed me.
01:40:56
Speaker 7: I think it would be safe to say it's the first time a governor has ever had that as their ringtone.
01:41:01
Speaker 6: As governor. There he is, our new incoming governor, Grant Stephens, who we spoke to earlier in the week. That was... That was a lot of fun. Let's check the fuel situation before we leave things here at the Glenelg Golf Club. Don't get stuck on the side of the road. Get an RAA road service. The cheapest, the Liberty Clarence Garden South Road, $ 2. 21. 9. The Yugo Clearview, Main North Road, $ 2. 25. 5. Leroy's Hacker, Main South Road, $ 2. 27. 5. And the cheapest diesel, United Henley Beach Road, Henley Beach, again, at $ 2.
01:41:32
Speaker 8: 78. 5.
01:41:32
Speaker 6: We'll try and stay dry today, folks. Enjoy your weekend, and we'll catch you Monday morning from 6.
01:41:54
Speaker 19: This is Radio Nowhere. Is there anybody home?
Speaker 1: Time to go home there, ball.
00:00:02
Speaker 2: Why didn't you just go home?
00:00:04
Speaker 3: That's your home.
00:00:05
Speaker 4: Are you too good for your home?
00:00:09
Speaker 5: Knockdown, build two with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
00:00:18
Speaker 2: Live from Highmarsh Square, it's 5AA Breakfast. Will Goodings with Stacey Lee.
00:00:26
Speaker 6: Nine after six, good morning to you. Welcome to Friday on 5AA Breakfast. We are at a home of sorts, the home of the 5AA Golf Day. We're here broadcasting live from the Glenelg Golf Club this morning. It's a bit dark, but as best we can make out, we're perched between the ninth green and the tee box for the tenth hole. That's, I think, what we can see, but we just need the sun to come up a little bit more. The sun, from what the little bits we can see... It looks like if the cloud cover holds the way it is, we're going to have a spectacular sunrise this morning. There's a bit of pink in the sky, a bit of darkness too, because whilst it's balmy, it actually feels like a beautiful day to be out on the course. There are the winds of change, and there may well be a storm, maybe a thunderstorm later today. I don't know whether it's going to come during the golf tournament that's taking place, but we'll find out. Golf Day 5AA, always a fun morning. Coincides with Meat Tray Friday this morning as well. We'll have more details on that. In a moment, coming up on the program, we'll talk about, given what the weather's going to do, this is going to seem weird, but I'm sure it'll be popular during summer. The new Paynham swimming pool opens tomorrow. The City of Nord Paynham and St Peter's Mayor is going to join us. We've got a story from someone who has had a subpar experience in an ED in South Australia. Subpar. I'll give you a hint. You turn up at ED and you're treated lying on the floor because there are no beds. Lying on the floor. In pain. After seven, you'll hear more details on that story. We'll wrap what has been a huge week in federal politics with Nelson Scott. And we're going to have feedback Friday and a little game of Nearest to the Pin a little bit later. It's always a fun day, Golf Day, Stace. Good morning to you.
00:02:00
Speaker 7: Yes, good morning.
00:02:01
Speaker 6: You're a golfer in any way? Not really.
00:02:03
Speaker 7: No, my husband is. So I think we call ourselves the golf widows.
00:02:08
Speaker 6: Yes. So you lose him for how many hours on a weekend?
00:02:10
Speaker 7: Well, he claims it takes six hours.
00:02:13
Speaker 8: Right.
00:02:13
Speaker 7: I'm told by others it doesn't really take six hours to play. That's more the 19th hole.
00:02:18
Speaker 6: Yes.
00:02:19
Speaker 7: A couple of hours spent there.
00:02:20
Speaker 6: A bit of the socialising that goes on afterwards. Which, you know, that's fine.
00:02:23
Speaker 7: But no, not really into it myself, but I can get into the setting of golf. This is beautiful.
00:02:30
Speaker 6: Courses are just spectacular. We'll be chatting with the superintendent a little bit later. They are just a testament to like expertly manicured gardens.
00:02:37
Speaker 8: Yeah.
00:02:38
Speaker 6: Like if you can appreciate a good garden, you can appreciate a golf course.
00:02:40
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's true.
00:02:41
Speaker 6: That's true. The lawn just always is trimmed spectacularly. The setting is beautiful.
00:02:46
Speaker 7: I know. Even the scrub.
00:02:48
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:02:49
Speaker 7: I'm doing the air quotation mark. The scrub is lovely. It's all manicured.
00:02:53
Speaker 6: I think Glenelg, you mentioned, it's interesting you used the word scrub because I always feel like Glenelg feels real Australiana, this course. You get a lot of other courses and they sort of, try to rip off PGA style. There's something almost artificial about it, the way American courses look, I always think. They're sort of designed in such a way they don't mirror nature. They're kind of their own weird ecosystem. But this feels like... This almost feels like in the dark that we start the show this morning, that you just happen to a patch where there's no trees in a bit of the Australian outback.
00:03:24
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, you can see natives there. Is that some wattle?
00:03:26
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's all natives just there.
00:03:28
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's all natives. So, yeah, they've done it really well.
00:03:30
Speaker 6: It is beautiful. It is nice.
00:03:32
Speaker 7: I just... Golf seems to be something that unless you can invest a lot of time into it, it can be an extremely disappointing hobby. Every time my husband goes to play, he gets home and is upset.
00:03:43
Speaker 6: Yes, that's why I don't play.
00:03:45
Speaker 7: Do you play?
00:03:45
Speaker 6: No, I don't. It just makes me miserable. I just don't need that in my life. There are enough other things that do that. I don't need to introduce another of my own choice. One thing that makes me happy is Meat Tray Friday. And I think this is going to be a lot of fun this morning. We have the meat tray. Thanks to Meat Tray Friday. Oh, geez. Goodwood Quality Meats. Jump in and see Luke, Dave and the team. Goodwood Quality Meats this weekend. 121 Goodwood Road, Goodwood. We've been talking about things like parking in Harndorf earlier this week. Things that look like they're about to become paid. Feels like, inevitably, that's the way that discussion's going. If the council has the intent. You're having a bit of trouble with that iPad there this morning.
00:04:19
Speaker 7: My iPad's gone floppy. I can't make it stand up.
00:04:21
Speaker 6: Always worth watching the live stream when we're on OB. Because we're totally out of our element. Weird stuff starts happening. For the meat trade this morning, we want to ask you to nominate some things that aren't free but should be. Yes. Aren't free but should be.
00:04:35
Speaker 7: So obviously parking is the inspiration.
00:04:38
Speaker 6: Parking is the inspiration. And maybe parking in the city too. We've been talking about that. I mean, the absence of free parking is actually inhibiting the ability of businesses in the city to trade.
00:04:47
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:04:48
Speaker 6: That's a good nomination.
00:04:49
Speaker 7: The first one that came to mind for me was shopping bags.
00:04:53
Speaker 6: Oh, I love it.
00:04:54
Speaker 7: Oh, because not even just grocery shopping. I was in Maya on the weekend and I went to the Christmas decoration section and they said, would you like a 50 cent bag with that? And I said, well, yeah, how else am I going to carry six ball balls out of here safely that are glass? So to pay for a 50 cent bag and they give you the one that is exactly the size you need. And then I went up to the kids' clothing area and got Molly a new dress for Christmas. And Would you like a 50 cent bag with that? And I need another bag.
00:05:22
Speaker 6: Another 50 cent bag.
00:05:23
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:05:23
Speaker 6: Don't it cost 50 cents to buy those bags, do they?
00:05:26
Speaker 7: Surely they don't cost that much to produce them.
00:05:28
Speaker 6: Yeah. That's a great one. I've got meat tray Friday envy on that one. I was tossing around a couple. Airline food.
00:05:36
Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
00:05:38
Speaker 10: Yeah.
00:05:39
Speaker 6: Sport on TV. But I settled on one. You know this new phenomenon when you go to any form of restaurant and they've got the tap? The sparkling water tap?
00:05:49
Speaker 4: Yep.
00:05:50
Speaker 6: And you get charged like you've just bought a $ 15 bottle of water.
00:05:52
Speaker 7: Such a good one.
00:05:53
Speaker 6: That should be free.
00:05:54
Speaker 7: Water at restaurants.
00:05:56
Speaker 6: Out of a tap.
00:05:56
Speaker 11: Yep.
00:05:57
Speaker 6: Well, you've put it in your own glass bottle.
00:05:59
Speaker 2: Yep.
00:05:59
Speaker 6: I shouldn't have to pay for that.
00:06:01
Speaker 12: Yep.
00:06:01
Speaker 6: Or at least not pay $ 15 for it.
00:06:03
Speaker 7: No, I agree with you.
00:06:04
Speaker 6: Water at restaurants. 8223 0000. Text us on 048 08 13 95. What is something that should be free that isn't?
00:06:13
Speaker 7: In a similar vein to yours, birthday cake at restaurants. If you bring your own birthday cake. I understand that they're giving you a plate to put it on and then someone needs to wash that plate.
00:06:25
Speaker 6: Almost like corkage for cakes.
00:06:26
Speaker 7: Yeah. I'm happy to have the knife. I'm happy to cut it myself. I'm happy to just– I'll bring a paper plate if it's the plate. Just because I'm sitting in a venue eating a cake that I've paid for and brought, why do I then have to pay $ 15 on top of that?
00:06:41
Speaker 6: That's a good one because it's especially insulting because the birthday is what got you to go to the venue in the first place.
00:06:46
Speaker 11: Yeah.
00:06:47
Speaker 6: Rob says, sauce on your pie or sausage roll at the bakery should be free.
00:06:51
Speaker 7: That's un-Australian if anyone's charging.
00:06:53
Speaker 6: I would have thought that's against the law anyway.
00:06:55
Speaker 7: No bakery.
00:06:55
Speaker 6: I presume Rob's saying, no one's saying the squeezy bottle in the sausage roll is paid for, is it? Do you pay for that?
00:07:02
Speaker 7: I've never heard of that.
00:07:02
Speaker 6: It must be the little packets.
00:07:04
Speaker 7: The little packets. But even then, there's not enough in there. You need to buy a few of those.
00:07:08
Speaker 6: Someone else here said, free to bet. Free to bet. Which is sort of... Free?
00:07:12
Speaker 7: What should be free?
00:07:14
Speaker 6: Tibet. Yeah, you know, I didn't think we were going to get entirely geopolitical with this meat trade Friday today, but I didn't care. Big good morning to the Chinese government who are listening. Sam in Thebanon, good morning.
00:07:25
Speaker 1: Good morning, guys.
00:07:26
Speaker 13: Everyone is a victim of this, and I'll call them victims.
00:07:32
Speaker 14: Bank account keeping fees.
00:07:36
Speaker 1: You've got my money.
00:07:37
Speaker 14: And I've got to pay you to hold my money.
00:07:40
Speaker 9: And they're already.
00:07:41
Speaker 1: Credit card fees.
00:07:42
Speaker 6: They're making money on it as well, on interest on it as well. Yeah.
00:07:47
Speaker 7: That's a great one, Sam.
00:07:48
Speaker 6: That is terrific.
00:07:49
Speaker 7: Bank accountants.
00:07:50
Speaker 6: Is there any better body on planet Earth for extracting the maximum amount of money out of you than a bank?
00:07:59
Speaker 11: No.
00:07:59
Speaker 6: Every single interaction has some form of tax or charge or fee.
00:08:04
Speaker 7: Or inconvenience. Just to go to a branch. We can't help you with that. We're now a business hub. I don't care if you're a business. Help me get my money.
00:08:13
Speaker 6: It's your money.
00:08:13
Speaker 15: Yeah.
00:08:14
Speaker 6: It's your money. Phil says, Will and Stacey, hope you're keeping an eye on the weather radar today. We are. And just to give you some, Phil, because I can tell you're concerned, ease. We are under the sort of the halfway house. After you finish the night, you come in here and have a drink. It's a terrific little structure that they've built at the Glenelg Golf Course. Yeah, it's nice. It almost feels sort of a nice sort of pre-drinks for a wedding type venue. Then you go to the clubhouse and have the reception maybe. but we are nicely undercover. I can't vouch for the rest of our participants today. Looking forward to seeing some of them down here. We'll be chatting with some over the course of the morning. It's going to be really fun. 18 after 6, more Meat Tray Friday entries in a moment. 8223 0000, text us on 048 08 1395. Dave in Alberton's called in. Dave, what should be free that isn't? Morning, team.
00:09:03
Speaker 11: A bit jealous for those that are about to tee off despite the weather. Nothing better than get to the point where your Ticketek account is ready to purchase your tickets and booking fee.
00:09:15
Speaker 6: Yes. The booking fee. Oh, that's a brilliant one.
00:09:19
Speaker 7: That is a good one.
00:09:20
Speaker 6: Stacey's written that down. Dave, you're in the running. You're in the meat tray.
00:09:24
Speaker 7: In the running.
00:09:24
Speaker 6: There needs to be some sort of raw... Forget the raw commission into AI. We need a raw commission to fees.
00:09:29
Speaker 7: Extra charges and fees.
00:09:30
Speaker 6: Extra charge.
00:09:31
Speaker 7: Because especially if you're the person who's buying all the tickets for a group of people and you say, okay, we're happy with the... $ 58 level of ticket. All right, everyone's transferred $ 58. And then you get to the end of the process and it's $ 6. 85 extra for everyone. And you feel like an idiot asking for an extra $ 6.
00:09:47
Speaker 16: 85.
00:09:47
Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely right. Let's go to Grange. Vinnie, good morning.
00:09:50
Speaker 13: Please, free car party in the city. There's nowhere left. And uh i think the way they could do it is first two hours around the city free and after that you.
00:10:02
Speaker 6: Pay yes has to be a false economy in the city at some point in time the car parking scenario is making it that the only viable business is being in the council yep or running a car park because it can't be to run a shop Let's take a break. We'll get some more of your Meat Tray Friday entries in a moment. 8223 0000. Text us on 04808 1395. What is something that should be free that isn't?
00:10:28
Speaker 5: Knockdown Bill 2 with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes.
00:10:34
Speaker 7: They do it all for you.
00:10:36
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:10:42
Speaker 6: Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, if you've got a vantage point that you can see the sort of southeast of the city, I encourage you to get out and have a look at the sunrise this morning. Bel Air, Blackwood, Colonel Light Gardens, that's the sort of direction we're looking right now. And that is absolutely spectacular. I imagine our text line is going to be inundated with beautiful pictures before long from our very clever photographer listeners because that is a sensational sunrise. Excuse me, that might have been the Melbourne service that just took off next to us. We're at the Glenelg Golf Course in the airport. is right next door. So occasionally you get a plane going overhead.
00:11:15
Speaker 7: It's quite nice. You can see them up very closely.
00:11:17
Speaker 6: You can.
00:11:17
Speaker 7: You get a great view.
00:11:18
Speaker 6: It's amazing how you adjust. And I know it's often a talking point about curfews and where, you know, planes coming overhead. And they're not the big ones, but my wife's family grew up here at West Beach, just off that Tapley's Hill Road. And they had all the small planes would go overhead. And people would come over and go, oh, wow. They'd react to the plane going over it. And you wouldn't even know after a while. It just sort of becomes part of the background. Anyway, that's what I'm suggesting this morning will become for you, listeners. Let's go to Mitchum, out towards that beautiful sunrise. Warwick, good morning.
00:11:46
Speaker 4: G'day, everyone.
00:11:47
Speaker 8: And I'm very jealous that you're at Glenelg this morning. Beautiful golf club, that is.
00:11:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, very.
00:11:53
Speaker 8: Something that should be free, or should I say someone who.
00:11:56
Speaker 1: Should be free?
00:11:57
Speaker 8: Jared Roughead, because he's done nothing this trade period.
00:12:01
Speaker 6: Let him free. Let him run free.
00:12:04
Speaker 8: Who wouldn't love a job where you get paid two, three hundred grand a year and then he comes along and says, ah, look, we're not going to do anything this period.
00:12:11
Speaker 6: Don't expect much. It is concerning, Warwick, that for a club that should be in the premiership window, all they're seeing is depth walk out the door. It's, yeah, I'm with you. Thank you, Warwick. Maybe I'm not so dramatic as letting Ruffy go, but maybe just to kick up the backside. Dave, good morning.
00:12:26
Speaker 17: Good morning, Stacey.
00:12:27
Speaker 1: Good morning, Will.
00:12:29
Speaker 6: What should be free, but isn't, Dave?
00:12:30
Speaker 1: I think the football on TV should be free.
00:12:34
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:12:34
Speaker 10: Oh, yeah.
00:12:35
Speaker 6: Increasingly, I think that's a battle we're losing, Dave.
00:12:37
Speaker 7: 100%.
00:12:39
Speaker 18: Yeah.
00:12:40
Speaker 7: It's just getting harder to work out where to watch it and how to watch it and how much it costs to watch it.
00:12:45
Speaker 6: It has gotten to the point in the US that sports bars there are having issues because you used to be able to just put on the TV that had, say, the basketball or the NHL, the hockey or whatever, and you'd leave it on for the day. But now the games themselves chop and change between not just TV providers but Amazon, YouTube, other internet companies. So you need to be constantly logging in and having subscriptions and it's really logistically impossible.
00:13:13
Speaker 7: Oh my God.
00:13:14
Speaker 6: That's our future, folks. I struggle to imagine that won't happen here.
00:13:18
Speaker 7: And I think businesses have a different subscription.
00:13:21
Speaker 6: Fee than individuals.
00:13:22
Speaker 11: Yes, they do.
00:13:22
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a good point.
00:13:23
Speaker 7: So if you're not subscribed or if your subscription just runs out or if your free 30-day period ends.
00:13:29
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right. You've got all sorts of issues. 19.1 degrees outside at the moment. So the backdrop to that beautiful sunrise is the beautiful sunrise. On a magnificent morning, it feels fantastic. It won't remain that way. The top today will be just 23. It's not getting a lot warmer. 3 to 15 millimetres of rain, showers and a possible storm. And it's going to come early, the rain that is. So the Bureau is saying from 7.30 we might start to see it. And the potential storm activity will come later in the day. But this is a cool change. It's going to be a potentially significant storm as well.
00:14:05
Speaker 7: Look at the family of ducks.
00:14:07
Speaker 6: Where's the ducks? I can't see the ducks.
00:14:08
Speaker 7: Just behind that golf buggy there. There's a family of ducks walking across the golf course. Sorry, I got very distracted then. I got excited.
00:14:14
Speaker 6: They're getting away from the storm activity. They're finding shelter. Or maybe they're getting away from some of our 5AA Golf Day hackers that might be sending them in the direction of their natural habitat. That is beautiful. What a wonderful morning. Not so much of a wonderful day after this point. All right. I think we should head back to the studio because Tom Wren is back in Hindmarsh Square with some sport promotion for us. Agostino Mitsubishi's demo clearance on now. Save on the Pajero Sport, ASX, Triton and Outlander, Nailsworth and Mawson Lakes. Morning, Randy. Morning, Will.
00:14:45
Speaker 19: Morning, Stacey.
00:14:46
Speaker 12: Yes.
00:14:47
Speaker 19: I hope you're enjoying it down there. It's going to be beautiful coming up shortly, although there's a bit of rain coming, isn't there, which is a bit of a concern for the golfers, but the course is magnificent. I Well, I was just going to say, seven-way trade we're thinking for Zach Butters. It's going to be extraordinary. So we don't know the exact details just yet, but it looks like it is moving closer. The AFL, I'm sure, will be keeping a very close eye on things. But seven clubs, or as many as seven clubs, if it was to happen, that would be unprecedented, I.
00:15:21
Speaker 6: Would have thought, Will.
00:15:22
Speaker 12: Yep.
00:15:23
Speaker 6: So the hold-up in this, as I understand it, Rennie, is the AFL has to check to make sure it's all fair.
00:15:27
Speaker 4: Yeah.
00:15:27
Speaker 6: I hate this part of the trade period. If the seven clubs have decided it's fair, why the hell does the AFL need to have a say in it? Just say it sticks to the rules and let's move on.
00:15:37
Speaker 19: Well, you've almost got half the sides there anyway, so they're going to say, yeah, it's no problems.
00:15:41
Speaker 6: Yeah.
00:15:42
Speaker 19: It's amazing, isn't it? I mean, I think we're all Itching to find out, you know, the exact tin tacks of how it's going to work out. But yeah, that's the position we're in. You're right, Will, at the moment. So intriguing. We're obviously, you know, the first domino has to fall like a lot of other deals. It can't be done until the one with Zach Butters happens because then, you know, they start to talk about other players and, you know, every other club can move the Western Bulldogs because they know they've got him locked in. So a fair bit has to play out before they can get to other trades with regards to Butters. So you'd expect something to happen. And I mean, the AFL would have to have this at the top of their list, but going to be really interesting to see how it unfolds. Also something that's going to be massive, I think tonight, In less than 12 hours, Australia takes on South Africa. This is the first test in Durban. First time they've played a test match since Sandpaper Gate. Eight years on and fascinating timing and not coincidental, of course. Usman Khawaja releasing a book and has called Pat Cummins to basically forewarn him about some explosive claims that he's going to make in his book about what went down.
00:16:48
Speaker 2: Eight years ago.
00:16:49
Speaker 19: So the timing is really quite, you know, going to pique a lot of interest, I think, isn't it?
00:16:55
Speaker 6: I don't have any sympathy for the sandpaper gate idiots, but he seems high maintenance, Usman Khawaja, doesn't he?
00:17:01
Speaker 19: Yeah, I think that's absolutely... Just.
00:17:04
Speaker 6: Putting it politely. Very fair assessment. Good on you, Freddie. Good on you guys. See you down there. Tell Ren, yeah, I'm looking forward to it, Renny. We'll get someone who really knows golf coming down here shortly as well. What a beautiful day. We can now see the sun is up. That sunrise is spectacular. Go check it out in the news and send us some photos. We're getting lots of Metro Friday entries sent through on the text line as well, some really good ones, some very funny, some very thoughtful as well. We'll have those in just a moment.
00:17:33
Speaker 5: Knock down, build two with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
00:17:42
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:17:50
Speaker 6: Magnificent morning at the Glenelg Golf Course ahead of what might be an indifferent day weather-wise. Some storm activity, certainly some rain on the way. We just had a look at the weather radar and Yeah, it's going to be a wet one if you're out and about.
00:18:01
Speaker 7: It's beautiful at the moment.
00:18:03
Speaker 6: It is spectacular. And the photos coming through on the text line are spectacular too. Tori sent us one heading through the Adelaide Hills to Robe with a view of the stunning skies. Tori says, don't worry, I'm the passenger. That's all right, Tori. We won't get an alert seatbelt. Emma says, good morning from Lightsview. Great picture. And Andrew sent us through a nice one from Craigburn Farm as well. So keep them coming in. Guy in Glenelg North is on the line. Morning, Guy. Morning.
00:18:27
Speaker 20: G'day, team.
00:18:27
Speaker 3: How are you going?
00:18:28
Speaker 14: Back in Adelaide, I live about two minutes away from Glenelg, of course, so enjoy the late sunrise.
00:18:34
Speaker 1: We're currently up on the Sunshine Coast.
00:18:35
Speaker 14: I'm out on the foreshore here having a coffee, listening on the 5AA app.
00:18:40
Speaker 21: Sunrise here, quarter past five.
00:18:42
Speaker 14: Why they don't have daylight saving, I've got no idea.
00:18:47
Speaker 6: It is ludicrous. I was in Queensland last week, Guy. It just makes no sense at all this time of year. Good on you. Thanks for listening. Thanks for calling in. We're all jealous of you, too, a bit there on the Sun. The sunny coast, yeah. Thank you very much. Nice one from Mark on the freeway heading to Murray Bridge. And in and around those wonderful sunrise texts, we're getting plenty of good Meet Trey Friday entries.
00:19:07
Speaker 3: Yes.
00:19:08
Speaker 7: Just before we get to Meet Trey Friday, I like this text from Rob. We were talking about the seven-way trade.
00:19:13
Speaker 6: Oh, yes. Trade week.
00:19:15
Speaker 7: He says, I don't know how the seven-way trade will work, just that the crows will obviously be screwed over.
00:19:20
Speaker 6: Yep, Rob. You're spot on. That's how it works. Somehow we'll be stuffed.
00:19:25
Speaker 7: Even if they're not directly involved.
00:19:26
Speaker 11: Yep.
00:19:28
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's just how things work in the AFL. Rob sounds like he's followed the Crows since 1991. I'm with him. Gary, good morning.
00:19:35
Speaker 13: Yeah, g'day. Talking about the charges that, you know, shouldn't be there.
00:19:40
Speaker 18: Yes.
00:19:41
Speaker 13: Went up to Westfield and bought a gift voucher from Westfield concierge desk.
00:19:48
Speaker 4: For $ 50, and she said.
00:19:50
Speaker 13: that'd be $ 52.
00:19:50
Speaker 10: 95.
00:19:50
Speaker 13: Yeah.
00:19:52
Speaker 6: Ah, that's not on.
00:19:53
Speaker 14: Yeah.
00:19:54
Speaker 6: That's a great nomination.
00:19:56
Speaker 12: Yeah.
00:19:57
Speaker 13: Went to the Lego store, bought a $ 50 voucher, cost me $ 50.
00:20:01
Speaker 6: Yeah. Well, I mean, you're giving them money for nothing, really. Yep. You shouldn't have to charge for that privilege.
00:20:08
Speaker 7: Uh, Now they've extended the period in which you can claim that.
00:20:13
Speaker 11: Yes.
00:20:13
Speaker 7: But they used to sometimes be 12 months. So a lot of the time they're getting your money and you're not even cashing it in.
00:20:18
Speaker 6: They would never have to give you anything. Good one, Gary. Angie, good morning.
00:20:22
Speaker 13: Good morning.
00:20:23
Speaker 10: How are you guys?
00:20:24
Speaker 6: We're good, Angie.
00:20:25
Speaker 10: I'm driving to work because I work at Western Hospital. So I'm on Grange Road. You know all about this, Will. And as you're going, sort of just before you hit Cadwalladr, the most magnificent rainbow over Henley Bay and in the Western Burbs up there. It's amazing.
00:20:40
Speaker 6: That is magnificent, Angie. It's my favourite part of the world, obviously, right there. I imagine it looks spectacular. Good on you. Good on you people at Western Hospital. You do a wonderful job. Thank you, Angie. Let's talk about someone who has done a wonderful job now that we can certainly see. We knew without the lights, but now you can see the magnificent work. Our next guest is the superintendent here at the Glenelg Golf Course, Tim Warren. Tim, good morning to you. Thanks, Will. Do you get anxiety thinking about dozens of people trudging over your fairways when there's rain on the way?
00:21:09
Speaker 9: Every day.
00:21:10
Speaker 7: Every day.
00:21:12
Speaker 6: Every day. No, no, no.
00:21:13
Speaker 18: Look, it's just glad that we can have these days and I suppose give the club a bit of exposure that not normally people would be able to get on apart from our members.
00:21:26
Speaker 6: So, yeah, I mean.
00:21:28
Speaker 18: the more we can get the word out of what we've been doing here at Glenelg for the last, I don't know, four or five years since we've started the course redevelopment. And it's almost complete and it's really starting to mature. And especially this time of year, we've had a good wet winter and a lot of the native vegetation that we've sort of implemented and planting in our planting plans is flowering and seeding and going to seed. And it just really just tops off the presentation of the golf course.
00:21:58
Speaker 7: We were talking about that earlier, saying sometimes when you get to golf courses, they can look quite similar. But here, it looks beautiful. It's a real Australiana-type golf course. So was that introducing the natives and bringing those species back to the area? Was that part of it?
00:22:14
Speaker 9: Yeah, definitely.
00:22:14
Speaker 18: Definitely stays. We started the course redevelopment back in, when was it, 2021, and with the vision of really bringing back, I suppose, the endemic species vegetation that would have been here pre-European so we have a sort of 4 June sort of landscape sandy base so it suits itself to that look and what we're trying to do is not have the golf course impose itself on the landscape it blends into the landscape and certainly the areas that we've established are more mature of really coming along coming along really.
00:22:53
Speaker 6: Well any tips for our five to play golf plays today any holes that are particularly tricky.
00:22:59
Speaker 18: Every one of them is tricky yeah i played on wednesday had the fortunate enough to time have some time to play on wednesday every time i play i just think have we made it easier or have we made it harder i mean it hasn't helped my golf game at all but um look look there's some challenging holes out there especially out the back um 15 16 17 waters in play um Yeah, probably our version of aiming corner. If you can get through that corner of the golf course with a reasonable score and not lose a golf ball and get wet, that's a good result. So definitely out the back, it's probably those holes out there, especially if the wind gets up as well.
00:23:35
Speaker 6: Yeah, all right.
00:23:36
Speaker 7: Do you get the blame?
00:23:39
Speaker 6: No, no, no.
00:23:40
Speaker 18: I just grow the grass. I didn't design the golf course. I just grow the grass. So when the greens are slow or not performing or Well, it comes to turf conditions, I'll put my hand up for that, but I think we're doing a pretty good job, the team that I've got here, they're doing an amazing job.
00:23:55
Speaker 6: Is fairway grass standard around the world?
00:23:58
Speaker 18: In terms of?
00:23:59
Speaker 6: Just the species.
00:24:00
Speaker 18: Oh, no, not really. I mean, what you've got to do depends on your climate and the zone of where of adaption, where warm season or temperate Mediterranean climate, so We've got warm seasons grasses on our summer growing grasses on our fairways. Predominantly a variety, a hybrid variety of cooch grass, Santa Rana. We've got a couple of fairways of winter green, but predominantly it's all cooch grass. Yet we're our bent grass greens. And that was one of the reasons why we undertook the.
00:24:39
Speaker 18: Reconstruction is we we had some I suppose encroachment of couch grass into our greens we had a lot of winter grass or power annual which is a weed species what we regard as a weed species in our green so that's why we made the decision to to address that element of the in the redesign as well well it.
00:24:57
Speaker 6: Looks spectacular Tim you've done a magnificent job and well our clients and sponsors and Some of the staff are pretty lucky to get the opportunity to play out there today. So thank you. We appreciate it. And by the way, can I beg for clemency? I've done the worst car park ever this morning. So please don't, please don't tell me.
00:25:13
Speaker 7: Please don't find me.
00:25:14
Speaker 6: No, no, no.
00:25:15
Speaker 18: It wouldn't be any different to half our members anyway.
00:25:18
Speaker 6: It might be. It might be.
00:25:20
Speaker 18: It wasn't great. They're just excited to be here and play golf. Their parking's just a secondary sport.
00:25:26
Speaker 6: Thank you, Tim. Really appreciate it. Thank you.
00:25:28
Speaker 18: Enjoy the day.
00:25:28
Speaker 6: Yeah, we will. It is a beautiful day. We've been, commenting a lot on the sunrise days, and it turns out we might be facing the wrong way because subsequent to the call we just received from Angie, I think it was, about the beautiful rainbow, we received a stack of texts from people saying the rainbow this morning is unbelievable.
00:25:46
Speaker 7: Oh, we can see it. Hold on.
00:25:47
Speaker 6: Go on, you go have a look. I'm going to go have a look. All right, you do a recce, headset off. I'll read some of these texts. Rob says, on the way to Fisherman's Bay and has a picture of the sunrise. You can see it? It's not a sunrise, but a rainbow this morning at Corunna. Thank you to that person. Jared sent one through. I'm just such a sceptic these days. I never believe any picture we see.
00:26:08
Speaker 7: No, it looks exactly like that. I was about to say purple and pink sky.
00:26:11
Speaker 6: It's like fairy dust. Jared's very reliable, but I just think everything's AI these days. The rainbow is spectacular.
00:26:17
Speaker 7: It is.
00:26:18
Speaker 6: So rainbow, sunrise, bad weather on the way. We're going to get a bit of everything today. Quite a remarkable one. Let's head to the weather bureau. Daniel Sherwin-Simpson is on duty. Daniel... Just on behalf of everyone participating in the golf day, when is the rain coming?
00:26:33
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we're going to have about two goes at the rainfall. We'll probably have a sort of first rain bandit, I guess, starting to drive that rainbow that you're seeing if you're looking out towards the west. That's going to come through in sort of the next couple of hours. We'll start to see a few light spits from that. Probably the bulk of it will be late morning, early afternoon. And then as we get into sort of the late afternoon, early evening, maybe around 6 or 7 o'clock or so, that's when we get our main risk of thunderstorms. So we could see the odd little rumble out of that first initial rain band, but I'd say the more stormy one where possibly we could see some severe weather. That's going to be coming through later on, possibly after your commute, but maybe a bit more towards dinner time. So hopefully shouldn't be impacting the Gulf with that second band of storms moving through.
00:27:16
Speaker 6: That's good news. What about the weekend?
00:27:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, so as we move into the weekend, things do generally fine up a bit once we see this first front move through on Saturday. So broadly settled weather. Moving into Sunday, it'll be warm for the bulk of Sunday, but we are going to get another band of showers and possibly some thunderstorms moving through later on in the evening. That system on Sunday, that one's going to be a bit more hit or miss. So probably won't get as significant rainfall totals out of it. But if you do get a thunderstorm, go right overhead on that Sunday. Definitely could be bumping things up a little bit more. I'd say in terms of rainfall totals, just from that initial band today, you might be looking at somewhere in the ballpark of five millimetres or so. And then if you get the storms coming through again later on towards this evening, you could get another 10, possibly 15 if things really get going with those thunderstorms.
00:28:05
Speaker 6: All right. Good stuff. Thank you, Daniel. Daniel Sherwin-Simpson from the Weather Bureau. Let's head to Saipol. Senior Constable Rebecca Stokes is on the line. Rebecca, a man has been assaulted as someone attempted to steal his e-bike this morning.
00:28:17
Speaker 22: Yes, police and paramedics were called to a caravan park in Richmond Street Hackney about 4.45 this morning for reports of an assault. The victim is a 60-year-old Queensland man. He was awoken by noises outside his motorhome, went outside to investigate and found an unknown man trying to steal his e-bike which he had secured to his motorhome. The victim was struck to the head with the angle grinder that the man was trying to use to free the e-bike. The suspect then fled the scene. The patrols arrived and located the e-bike a short distance away and the angle grinder was also left at the scene. The patrols searched the area but didn't locate the suspect. He's described as a tall man, about 191 centimetres tall or 6 foot 3 of Caucasian appearance. The victim sustained a laceration to his head and he was treated at the scene by paramedics. Investigations are continuing, so anyone who witnessed this or has any dash cam or maybe CCTV set up outside their caravan or in nearby homes, If they spot the suspect, they can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
00:29:14
Speaker 7: Wow, that sounds nasty, Rebecca. Tell us what happened near Wyala. There were drugs uncovered.
00:29:23
Speaker 22: Yeah, a really good traffic stop at Kultana just outside Wyala last night led to two people being reported for drug trafficking. This happened just before 6pm. An Air Western Highway Patrol pulled over a Ford Ranger on the Lincoln Highway at Coltana after it was detected speeding at 124kmh in a 110 zone. Police will allege that the driver, who's a 35-year-old woman from Hackenwest, she was driving while disqualified and also tested positive for methamphetamine. So a search of her, her passenger and the car allegedly located 41 bags of suspected methamphetamine and evidence of drug dealing. So both the driver and her 41-year-old passenger have been reported for trafficking in a controlled drug, and they'll both be summonsed to appear in the Waller Magistrates' Court at a later date.
00:30:09
Speaker 6: Trafficking in a traffic stop. Thank you. Just lastly, Rebecca, a serious crash at Renmark last night.
00:30:16
Speaker 22: Yes, about 8.45pm, police were called to 21st Street at Renmark after reports the pedestrian had been struck by a Holden sedan. The pedestrian's a 48-year-old woman. She was treated at the scene by paramedics before being taken to hospital. Fortunately, her injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. The driver of the Holden Sedanza 68-year-old local man, he was not physically injured in the crash. There were traffic restrictions in place while police investigated this crash, but the roads have since been opened. Again, anyone who witnessed the crash, has any dash cam footage or any other information that can help, they can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
00:30:49
Speaker 6: All right, thank you, Rebecca. Senior Constable there, Rebecca Stokes. It is coming up to eight minutes to seven. It is a Friday, which means Fruity Friday coming up a little bit later. Leith Forrest will be joined by Chris Jarmer from Jarmer's Kitchen at 2.30pm. All thanks to Smeg and Pows. If you're building or renovating, your first choice should be visiting the Smeg showroom at Deputy Distributors. Taste the difference with Smeg and Pows. We've got a meat trader giveaway thanks to Good Quality Meats. We're asking you about things that should be free that aren't.
00:31:21
Speaker 7: Mmm.
00:31:22
Speaker 6: Should be free that aren't. Some good suggestions coming through on the text line. If you call in, much better chance of winning the meat tray. Thanks to Google Quality Meat. You know it's going to be a great one. Call us, 8223 0088. Knockdown.
00:31:34
Speaker 5: Bill 2. With Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes.
00:31:40
Speaker 7: They do it all for you.
00:31:41
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:31:46
Speaker 6: Four minutes to seven. Andrew says there's a few spots of rain in Seton this morning. There'll be more than spots. A little bit later. So these two tranches of rain, the first not so bad, a little bit later in the day, closer towards the afternoon and evening. It's going to come down more heavily with probably a storm behind it. We're getting lots of nominations through for the meat trail this morning, thanks to Google Quality Meats. Things that should be free that aren't. Do we read Simon's? I really like Simon's. He's really put a thoughtful one through. He says, I think there's merit in the government funding the renewal of grave sites for returned servicemen and women, particularly from World War I and II. We fund war graves, but those who served and returned home deserve to have their graves preserved too. It's all part of our history. That is a great suggestion, Simon. That is a great suggestion. What a terrific concept.
00:32:31
Speaker 7: Yep.
00:32:32
Speaker 6: Someone here says, paying for alternate milk when I order a coffee just because I can't have dairy. I shouldn't be slugging the extra $ 1. 50 on top of the increasingly exorbitant cost of coffee.
00:32:43
Speaker 7: I'm also an alternate milk drinker, but I can understand why.
00:32:47
Speaker 6: It does cost more. It does. And there's wastage, I would assume.
00:32:51
Speaker 7: Is there, though, these days?
00:32:53
Speaker 6: Probably not. They sell so many coffees, don't you?
00:32:55
Speaker 7: I did see someone recently, one of my friends said they went to a coffee shop and just said, I'll get a cappuccino, thanks. I said, what sort of milk? Just normal milk. Full cream milk? Yeah, just the normal full cream cow's milk. Wow, no one orders that anymore. It was like the person, the barista or the person.
00:33:12
Speaker 6: Taking the order was shocked. I'm not sure we can do that.
00:33:14
Speaker 7: Are you sure you want regular milk?
00:33:17
Speaker 6: A cappuccino? Not a magic or something else weird?
00:33:20
Speaker 12: Ha, ha, ha.
00:33:22
Speaker 7: Chris on the text line says, entrance to the Royal Adelaide show should be free, given how expensive everything inside the grounds is.
00:33:30
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, everything everywhere. It's not just the Royal Show, is it?
00:33:34
Speaker 7: No.
00:33:34
Speaker 6: It's just everything everywhere.
00:33:36
Speaker 12: No.
00:33:36
Speaker 6: Yeah, no. Do we take it, Chris?
00:33:38
Speaker 7: Sharon also says, public transport. It would be great to have it free. Sharon doesn't pay for parking in the city, parks outside and walks in or goes to suburban shopping centres.
00:33:48
Speaker 6: Good one, Sharon. Keep them coming in. You're on the running to win the meat trade this morning. Should we do a little quick top seven before seven?
00:33:53
Speaker 11: Oh, yeah.
00:33:54
Speaker 6: Yeah, let's do it.
00:33:54
Speaker 2: The top seven before seven.
00:33:57
Speaker 6: Inspired by the meat tray this morning, we're asking you to nominate things that should be free that aren't. Songs containing the word free.
00:34:06
Speaker 9: Okay.
00:34:08
Speaker 6: In the title. Starting with this one, number seven. Elton John with Philadelphia Freedom in the seventh spot. Number six.
00:34:22
Speaker 16: I don't need your freedom.
00:34:25
Speaker 6: Oh, my God.
00:34:25
Speaker 2: Girl, all I want right now is you.
00:34:30
Speaker 6: That's an interesting moment, actually, because that's the only time Wham's ever been played on 5AA, and it hasn't been by Angie McBride. Number, what do I have to do? Five.
00:34:38
Speaker 11: Oh.
00:34:40
Speaker 7: That's a certainly five.
00:34:45
Speaker 12: It's tender.
00:34:49
Speaker 7: That should be higher.
00:34:49
Speaker 6: John Farnham, yeah. That could be controversial in number five. Let's go to number four. Rolling Stones with I'm Free. Some big bands in this section. Number three.
00:35:08
Speaker 2: I've got to break free.
00:35:17
Speaker 7: I want to break free from all the surcharges.
00:35:19
Speaker 6: This could be the theme of your advocacy. Front some sort of no more surcharges. Number two. Tom Petty with Free Falling, which means the number one spot goes to... Leonard Skinner, Freebird. I think the full version of that goes for about eight minutes. We can't play the whole thing. I love that song. I thought we were going to.
00:36:00
Speaker 7: No.
00:36:01
Speaker 6: If we ever do, you'll know it's because something bad has happened.
00:36:03
Speaker 7: Massive technical knowledge.
00:36:05
Speaker 6: That's exactly right. I've just run out of stuff to say. Freebird in the number one spot. What do we miss? Top seven songs before seven with free in the title. We'll get to some of those after seven o'clock and more of your Meat Tray Friday entries. What should be free but isn't?
00:36:34
Speaker 13: Come on the rising wind.
00:36:41
Speaker 2: Knockdown.
00:36:42
Speaker 7: Build two.
00:36:43
Speaker 5: With Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes.
00:36:48
Speaker 7: They do it all for you.
00:36:49
Speaker 2: We're Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:36:54
Speaker 6: Eight after seven. Good morning to you. Joining us for the first time on this Friday the 9th of October. Mother Nature has put on a show in the first hour of the program. We've had a magnificent sunrise. We've had a remarkable rainbow out towards the western suburbs that lots of people sent us a picture of as well. And on the way, we've got a storm and certainly some rain that is going to complicate things here at the Glenelg Golf Club for our golf day. But Bruce Lind is here. We're going to be chatting to, in a moment, a footy legend who looks undeterred, albeit sans a raincoat, which is, I think, going to be something. If anyone is driving here, make sure you get an umbrella or something because you might well need it. We just had a 747 with songs with free in the title, inspired by the meat tray this morning. We're asking you about things that should be free that aren't. I don't think, it didn't seem like there was an outcry, but there were some suggestions.
00:37:43
Speaker 7: There were some other suggestions. This person says Freestyler by Bomb Funk MC. I like that one.
00:37:49
Speaker 6: Yeah. That's a good one. That's a good one.
00:37:51
Speaker 7: Keep on Rocking in the Free World by Neil Young.
00:37:54
Speaker 6: That would have been good.
00:37:55
Speaker 12: Yep.
00:37:56
Speaker 7: Freedom by George Michael. A couple of people have suggested that one. Free the people and freedom by my faves back in the day. Sherbert, that's from Michelle. You youngins wouldn't remember.
00:38:08
Speaker 6: Thank you, Michelle.
00:38:10
Speaker 7: Yes, and we also have another suggestion for what should be free but isn't. And I'm outraged by this one, Malcolm, on your behalf. Chicken salt should be free. I get charged 50 cents extra for... That's an abomination.
00:38:25
Speaker 6: I would have thought, you know, in the interest of conserving things that are uniquely South Australian, you know, we have a conservation society for significant buildings and other things, that there should be some sort of government intervention to preserve chicken salt for all.
00:38:42
Speaker 7: For free, yeah.
00:38:42
Speaker 6: For free. Yeah. That deserves government intervention, I think. I think it does. You're right. We can't lose our institutions. Well. What are we if we don't have chicken salt?
00:38:51
Speaker 7: Nothing.
00:38:51
Speaker 6: We're nothing. Glenda in Fairview Park. Good morning.
00:38:54
Speaker 17: Good morning, Will and Stacey.
00:38:57
Speaker 12: We believe a farmer's own dam water should be free.
00:39:03
Speaker 6: This is a good one. Explain to our listeners, Glenda, how charges are levied on dam. I've heard this before on dam water.
00:39:11
Speaker 15: I don't actually know.
00:39:12
Speaker 17: I'm not a farmer, but I know that they.
00:39:15
Speaker 16: Do have to pay.
00:39:17
Speaker 6: Yes, they do. I can't recall. Call us if you're a farmer because I've heard of this gripe before. And I can't remember how it's levied, if it's a flat fee on each one.
00:39:25
Speaker 11: What?
00:39:25
Speaker 6: Yeah, but they do all the legwork.
00:39:27
Speaker 7: They damn on their own property.
00:39:28
Speaker 6: They damn the property and they do it all. A farmer will do a much better job of explaining than I will. We'll get an explanation on that one because I have heard that gripe before. 8223 0000 does sound outrageous on the face of it. So too does this next story. We got sent a message where someone said you need to do some work on a story by Ginny Chama, who's about to join us, who went to the Noolunga Emergency Department. Now, the story doesn't go where you might presume. This is not about ramping. This is about what happens when you get inside and are seen to. Ginny, good morning.
00:40:03
Speaker 15: Good morning. How are you today?
00:40:05
Speaker 6: Well, well, Ginny, just tell us about your ED visit.
00:40:09
Speaker 15: OK, well, over the last month, it's my third visit, and the other two... sort of, you know, well, okay, but I went to the doctor in the morning and my oxygen levels were so low they decided that I needed to go to hospital.
00:40:28
Speaker 13: So they took me.
00:40:29
Speaker 15: They put me in the waiting room, which I expect them to do, but I was so unwell I needed to lie down, so the only spot for me to lie down was on the floor. When they came to do my obs, I asked for a blanket so at least I could lie on something, which they did. And then I just stayed there, you know.
00:40:56
Speaker 6: On the ground?
00:40:57
Speaker 15: Yeah, on the ground, just next to some chairs. For how long, Ginny? Sorry?
00:41:04
Speaker 7: How long were you laying on a blanket on the floor in the waiting room?
00:41:08
Speaker 15: For over four hours. But in the meantime, a doctor came to me and she got down at my level and she said that they didn't have any beds but that she'd like to start treatment. And so they started treatment. They did swabs and blood, x-rays, you know, all those sorts of things. I had a cannula in that they put in on the ambulance on the way in, so they wanted to give me fluid but wouldn't do that until I was actually taken inside. So, yeah, I just stayed there. And there were a couple of incidents with the security staff that didn't go down very well.
00:41:51
Speaker 6: You mean people coming in misbehaving?
00:41:55
Speaker 15: No, the security staff were misbehaving.
00:41:58
Speaker 6: Oh, okay. That's even worse. They weren't hassling you, were they, Ginny?
00:42:03
Speaker 15: Yes, they were, actually, because there's usually only one of them there. But for some unknown reason, there were four. And they were sitting, you know, with about a metre from me and just continued laughing and carrying on. They obviously weren't, you know, working very hard because of all the enjoyment they seemed to be having with each other. I did make a comment about, you know, you guys are having too much fun for being at work and was looked at as daggers.
00:42:37
Speaker 6: And this is why you're lying there being treated on the ground.
00:42:41
Speaker 15: Yep, and when I was taken into the X-ray and came back, they were still carrying on and I sort of lost it a little bit and asked them if they thought it was appropriate to be carrying on laughing in a waiting room with sick people around them. And, you know, and then the nurse overheard me and she came out and... asked me what the problem was and basically she said to me are they laughing at you and they're allowed to laugh if they want to and they're here to protect us.
00:43:24
Speaker 6: You know you wouldn't have been in the presence of security guards misbehaving or behaving had you been somewhere that wasn't the floor to be treated that's to me the biggest outrage in this Ginny how are you getting on.
00:43:35
Speaker 15: Now sorry how are you getting on now They sent me home and, you know, since I've been home, I've been in bed. You know, I struggle breathing, you know, like, and, yeah, it's just something I wasn't expecting to have to... I just thought it was wrong. And the other thing I suppose I'd like to mention is that, you know, I am an ex-nurse. I worked at Flinders Medical Centre for... over 10 years in the accident and emergency department. So I sort of do know a little bit about it. And I think one of the things that amazed me the most was that it was a gentleman sitting in the waiting room and a doctor came out, put his leg up on the chair and proceeded to talk to this man about his prognosis and diagnosis in front of everybody there. that was around, you know, so I actually knew exactly what he had, what his prognosis was, that he didn't need surgery, and that he would, you know, have a lot of pain, but, you know, like, everything would be all right sort of thing. And I just thought.
00:44:49
Speaker 6: It's not a lot of dignity, is there, Ginny?
00:44:51
Speaker 15: No, it's not, yeah. But then, yeah, I was very amazed at my post, because I don't post. I never post.
00:45:02
Speaker 11: Yeah.
00:45:03
Speaker 15: I just thought, I didn't think it was an acceptable experience, and I just wanted to share it. But I suppose one of the things that I wasn't, I had no idea would have actually happened was all the trolls that are there and how nasty they can be.
00:45:21
Speaker 6: Wow, that's, yeah.
00:45:22
Speaker 15: You know, I was.
00:45:24
Speaker 6: That's social media, unfortunately.
00:45:25
Speaker 11: Yeah.
00:45:26
Speaker 6: We appreciate you sharing your story, Ginny, because people need to hear it. And our listeners are sending through a lot of texts of sympathy. And I would ignore dropkicks on social media if it's got nothing better to do with their time than be awful to people. Thank you, Ginny. Ginny Chama, who spent four hours at the floor in ED whilst being treated. And I don't know if you've listened to that story and thought Ginny sounded like someone who, if you were going to pick anyone out in a waiting room that could probably withstand being on the floor, then you've had a different take on that interview to me.
00:45:54
Speaker 7: This is a 71-year-old woman in Adelaide.
00:45:56
Speaker 18: Yes.
00:45:57
Speaker 7: At an Adelaide suburban hospital. This text from Don is exactly my thoughts. What sort of third world country do we live in where people have to lie on the floor at a hospital?
00:46:06
Speaker 6: It's actually worse than, so ramping is an issue, but at very least you're in an ambulance and you're being seen to. Corridor care isn't good enough, but at very least you're in a bed in a corridor. This is new. Now we're doing floor treatment.
00:46:21
Speaker 7: There was that thing called fit to sit.
00:46:23
Speaker 6: Fit to sit, yes.
00:46:24
Speaker 7: If you're fit to sit, you can be in the waiting room. Ginny wasn't even fit to sit. She had to lie on a blanket on the floor in the waiting room.
00:46:32
Speaker 6: If you'd read Ginny's story online and closed your eyes and thought about it, I think it was Don's text, you would imagine it was some poor country somewhere else in the world. It's here, it's in Adelaide, and it's a disgrace. Ginny, thank you. We're going to take a break. We'll get to some more of your Meat Tray Friday entries and the great Bruce Linda, who's about to tee off. When are you teeing off, Bruce? Eight o'clock. Eight o'clock. All right, so he's a little bit of time.
00:46:56
Speaker 7: He's doing some prep.
00:46:57
Speaker 6: Doing some, yeah, mental exercises. He'll be joining us on the other side of this break.
00:47:02
Speaker 5: Knockdown Bill 2 with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
00:47:10
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
00:47:14
Speaker 6: 23 after 7. You don't even know who you're going to bump into at 5AA' s Golf Day down here at the Glenelg Golf Course. And if you're watching on the Facebook and YouTube live stream, you'll see we've been joined by one of the greats, Bruce Linder, at the desk here. Bruce, good morning to you. Morning.
00:47:26
Speaker 9: What a great turnout. What a great place to be.
00:47:29
Speaker 23: It is.
00:47:29
Speaker 6: You're going to be hooking up with your old mate, Roger Luters, today?
00:47:32
Speaker 9: I'm sure I'll catch up for a drink later, yeah.
00:47:34
Speaker 6: Who's the better golfer? Rog works for us, for our listeners.
00:47:37
Speaker 9: Rog, you'll say he is. That's fine.
00:47:38
Speaker 6: He'll say he is. How do you go around? You looking forward to it?
00:47:43
Speaker 9: I'm always up for a game of golf. It's a great sport.
00:47:46
Speaker 7: Do you ever leave golf feeling good?
00:47:49
Speaker 9: If I win, yeah.
00:47:50
Speaker 6: Yeah, always.
00:47:51
Speaker 9: Unfortunately, that's sort of in my nature. I want to win. So it's not about the game. It's about winning.
00:47:56
Speaker 6: I know you didn't come on to talk about this, but you had a Make Try Friday entry for us, given you work in the wine industry, and I actually think it's a really good discussion.
00:48:02
Speaker 9: Well, what it is is like... So in the wine industry, you have to pay 29% wet tax, right? So on top of that, then they throw... GST on. So it's not the only industry. So we have the petrol industry where, you know, you have the excise and then they throw GST on top of it. I'm old enough to remember when GST came in and there was a promise by the government that we wouldn't have a tax on the tax.
00:48:24
Speaker 16: Yes.
00:48:25
Speaker 9: And it just, excuse the language, it just pisses me off.
00:48:28
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's ridiculous. Yeah, it is a tax on the tax.
00:48:30
Speaker 7: Making the tax a tax.
00:48:31
Speaker 9: Makes everything so much more expensive. I mean, because if you think about it, when there's a wholesale price, whoever's selling it has to multiply that So they can make a margin. So if the wholesale price is higher, well, then it goes much more expensive to buy anything.
00:48:50
Speaker 6: I didn't realise wine equalisation tax, I didn't realise it was 29%.
00:48:54
Speaker 11: 29%.
00:48:54
Speaker 9: It's staggering.
00:48:55
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's ridiculous.
00:48:56
Speaker 9: So if you look at a normal bottle of wine, it might be $ 30. Basically $ 10 of that is just wet tax and then another 10% of that.
00:49:02
Speaker 11: GST.
00:49:02
Speaker 12: GST.
00:49:08
Speaker 6: For an industry that we're ostensibly quite proud of and we punch well above our weight in.
00:49:13
Speaker 9: Well then you throw in that in New Zealand they don't pay wet tax so they have a leg up and why do we give why do we give them a leg up it's just it's just.
00:49:20
Speaker 6: Nuts that's it you're bruce you're eligible for the meat tray yep thank you congratulations uh thank you good quality meats uh you've now you've written a book as well you've just you've brought in and we've got one that we'll give away to a listener this morning first person of course in an 8223 0055 it looks like quite a personal reflection on on your life.
00:49:37
Speaker 9: Uh yeah well um it started so i was playing golf um i had a reasonable new year's eve and uh then played golf the next day and then um i went to the toilet and after the game oh that's a funny color and um and from there uh within a couple of days found out that i had kidney cancer um which is um yeah it's quite sobering um everything that goes along with that including um you know why me uh my family, you know, how does it affect us, all that sort of stuff. Had the surgery, lying in the critical care unit and all sorts of machines. And I'm thinking, you know what, if this goes south, my daughter doesn't know anything about me. So I thought I'd put pen to paper. Well, I actually got my phone out and used notes and just used finger type.
00:50:30
Speaker 6: You finger typed the whole book, did you? Yes, basically. Wow.
00:50:34
Speaker 9: But I graduated. I went from there to an iPad. So basically. So my recovery process was, you know, I'd wake up in the morning, do a little bit of exercise and then basically have breakfast and then just get my iPad out and go, well, let's write about a memory of some description. So it's about that. And then throughout the process of doctors and when things are a little dark, I thought, how do I turn a positive out of this process? very very nasty negative and um so i teamed up with an organization called ansup which is australian new zealand urogenital and prostate cancer long acronym uh to raise money so within the book towards the end so um it's part of the so it's part of my life so it's a cross between a memoir and autobiography so part of my my life like you know i was born in here and did this and blah blah blah But then interwoven with that is the cancer journey. So there's diary, journal notes all the way through it. So people have an understanding of what people go through when they're faced with an insidious disease like that.
00:51:51
Speaker 12: Yeah.
00:51:51
Speaker 6: Well, thank you for being so generous to bring in some for us to give away to our listeners. Bruce, we'll do that right now. And My pleasure. And all the best out there today. Great to catch up with you. Thank you so much. Hopefully the rain stays away for you. Yeah, hopefully the weather's all right. Yeah, I'm sure it'll be good. Good on you.
00:52:02
Speaker 12: Thanks, guys.
00:52:03
Speaker 6: Good on you, Bruce. Thank you. 8223 0055 is the number if you'd like to pick up a copy of the book. In the meantime, let's try and rope in Tim Ginniver to come over quickly. And he's got his Titleist hat on. He looks the part. He's ready to go. Tim, good morning to you. Yes, good morning. How are you? Do you reckon at some point in time, maybe when you're, out and round, maybe when you get here and you've just finished the ninth, Zach Butters might be at the Bulldogs? Do you know what's going to happen? It's a good question.
00:52:31
Speaker 23: I reckon it might take to the 15th or 16th. It seems like a SHIT show, doesn't it, at the moment? And the AFL sticking their nose right into it.
00:52:41
Speaker 6: Why do they stick their oar in it, Tim? If the seven clubs say that we all think this is fair, what do they know that the clubs don't about fairness?
00:52:50
Speaker 23: I reckon if we were relocated to Darwin, it wouldn't be a problem. They would have done the first deal. I just feel that if you're in a football state, W-A-S-A, not as giving.
00:53:03
Speaker 6: Yeah, you're right.
00:53:04
Speaker 23: Yeah, you don't get those unofficial concessions. Well, we'll see a deal that's going to happen. Ben King will end up at Hawthorne and magically, Aidan Schubert, a young lad from South Australia, good player too, a young kid, he's going to end up with Gold Coast somehow.
00:53:17
Speaker 10: Unrelated.
00:53:18
Speaker 6: Unrelated whatsoever.
00:53:20
Speaker 23: Fair dinkum, I'll tell you.
00:53:21
Speaker 7: Seven-way trade.
00:53:22
Speaker 23: I'm sounding very cynical this morning.
00:53:24
Speaker 6: I think it's because of the rain.
00:53:26
Speaker 7: How are you feeling about the golf day?
00:53:29
Speaker 6: Jeez, muggy. I like it. I like the mugginess.
00:53:32
Speaker 23: It's reminding me of a scene from Caddyshack where the priest goes out to play and it's just absolutely hammering down.
00:53:38
Speaker 6: And Bill Murray goes.
00:53:39
Speaker 23: I don't think we've seen the worst of it yet.
00:53:45
Speaker 6: So we're going to have some fun. Hey, I heard you talking about what should be free. Yes.
00:53:49
Speaker 23: On a sporting sort of note, what about test cricket being free? The South Africa v Australia test series is, you know, building up unbelievably.
00:53:59
Speaker 9: Can't watch it free.
00:54:00
Speaker 7: Really?
00:54:01
Speaker 11: No.
00:54:01
Speaker 6: See, that's a good point. You can't see it. You can't see it free. It's not there's that much test cricket. No.
00:54:05
Speaker 23: And you go, well, this is one of the biggest series, you know, eight years since the sandpaper gate, and we're not going to be able to watch it free in it. And it also annoys me, and we get texts about it all the time, but Matildas and Socceroos, when they play away.
00:54:17
Speaker 6: Yeah, you can't see it. You can't see it. It's our national team.
00:54:21
Speaker 23: Our national teams, I think we should be able to watch free.
00:54:23
Speaker 7: Great call.
00:54:24
Speaker 6: That's terrific. There's one for you. What's your level of optimism about the South Africa series? I don't know.
00:54:33
Speaker 23: It's funny, we spoke to Bharat Sundararaisan yesterday, and I said, how strong is this South African team and where are they at and all the rest of it?
00:54:40
Speaker 6: He said, well, the quick answer is we don't know. Yeah.
00:54:43
Speaker 23: He said, so it's a bit of an unknown series at the moment. Look, there's a fair bit of grit in our team. I do like the fact that when, I didn't mind Matty Hayden having a crack. I thought he was having a crack at the selectors, but Travis Tedds hit back.
00:54:56
Speaker 6: He took it personally, didn't he? Yes.
00:54:58
Speaker 23: But if that makes you sort of dig in, then I don't mind that. I like the fact that they've got a bit of grit. I will show them.
00:55:05
Speaker 6: Sometimes you need that.
00:55:06
Speaker 9: I don't know.
00:55:06
Speaker 23: You need that needle to go, all right, I'll show you. And I reckon our boys can respond. They've still got a great bowling line-up.
00:55:12
Speaker 6: That's right. And a motivated Travis Head is a pretty scary proposition as well. Indeed it is. He could take it away from them. Don't worry about that. Are you motivated to get out there to Timmy and just... What are you doing the next half hour? I might stay around.
00:55:24
Speaker 8: Yeah, stick around.
00:55:25
Speaker 7: Stick around.
00:55:26
Speaker 6: Join the show.
00:55:26
Speaker 7: We'll be here.
00:55:27
Speaker 6: This is like, there's a bit of our Sanofi royalty getting around here.
00:55:30
Speaker 23: Yeah.
00:55:30
Speaker 6: Bruce Linder, Roger Luters, and you, Timmy. Thank you very much. Do you renew sort of old battles out in the fairways? Oh, there's Chris Jarmer.
00:55:41
Speaker 4: Hello, Chris.
00:55:41
Speaker 23: There is an absolute moment in time where all of that, leaves your body, Will. It's like an exorcism.
00:55:48
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay.
00:55:50
Speaker 23: And then you're like, hey, g'day, bud.
00:55:53
Speaker 9: Yeah, okay.
00:55:54
Speaker 23: Once upon a time, you'd end up at Lenny's or Bojangles or whatever, and you'd see him in the corner.
00:55:58
Speaker 7: Yeah, I hate that bloke.
00:56:02
Speaker 6: Different vibe out here this morning. I love it. Good on you, Tim. All right, we're going to take a break. 5AA News is coming up. We'll wrap the last week in federal politics next.
00:56:09
Speaker 5: 18 minutes to 8. It's getting loose down here. What's happened? I said, from behind, this guy here in the blue looks like Sam Tugwell.
00:56:19
Speaker 2: And Jess said to me, that is Sam Tugwell. You don't miss the tricks, do you?
00:56:37
Speaker 7: I think... Maybe I've had some of the... Did you see the fireball?
00:56:42
Speaker 6: Yeah, there was someone doing a fireball shot next to us. There's a bottle of fireball going around. He offered it to us. I didn't know it was that kind of event, but I'd obviously had mine already.
00:56:49
Speaker 7: Maybe I've been inhaling it.
00:56:50
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right.
00:56:51
Speaker 7: Accidentally.
00:56:53
Speaker 6: What is in these coffees? What kind of day is this, Golf Day? Hey, coming up very shortly, we will be talking about the vaccination program for South Australia's penguins that was announced yesterday. This is a weird one. We'll put this to the minister too. So the South Australian government has approved it, and I think we all get why with the bird flu and such. And there's a colony, a beautiful little colony that we want to protect at Granite Island. The federal government has to sign off on it. I don't know why now we've got an added delay, another layer of government. This is just how Australia works.
00:57:21
Speaker 7: They'll put a tax on it while they're at it.
00:57:22
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right. It's just the rain gauge for penguins. Rail gauge, should I say. We will talk about that very, very shortly. We want you to nominate the seven sensational South Australians over 70 who achieve, lead and inspire. If you know someone over 70 who is sensational, friend, neighbour, colleague, whoever it might be, someone you play golf with maybe, it could be you, nominate them at 5AA. com. au. Highlight their outstanding contribution. Proudly presented by 5AA and AFM World Strategy. Plan the retirement you want to live with the independent advice you can trust. AFMWorldStrategy.com.au. Let's head to Canberra. Nelson Scott is our 5AA Canberra correspondent. Nelson, good morning.
00:58:03
Speaker 16: Stacey Will, good morning.
00:58:04
Speaker 6: It's been a big week. We finally now have three discrete migration policies from what are now the three major parties, according to the polling. How have you seen the fallout from the coalition's announcement?
00:58:19
Speaker 16: Yeah, well, they've lost a bit of support with their classic friends, of course, in the business community. They're concerned that this policy will lead to workforce shortages. The policy basically is they want to reduce net overseas migration to 100,000 people per year for the first two years, and then by the fourth year, that would rise to around 160,000. To compare that to the other major parties, Labor wants to get their number down to $ 225, 000 by the end of the next financial year. One Nation initially wants to go into negative net migration before petering out at a figure around $ 130, 000. The coalition says they'll do this by reducing the number of temporary visa holders, specifically cuts to... student visas, while prioritising skilled workers. And one of the things they have sought to do to distinguish themselves from One Nation is to highlight that this is a and they say budget neutral policy, they say they've worked closely with the Parliamentary Budget Office to get this through. We haven't seen the full costings of this, but they say that they'll make it budget neutral because when you prioritise workers with more skills, they typically pay more tax than low-skilled temporary workers and students. So it'll be interesting to see how this plays out. This is a key classic area of strength for the Coalition, harkens back to The John Howard era of we will decide who comes into this country and the circumstances in which they'll come. They've ceded that ground recently to One Nation. So I think they're trying to make it out like perhaps they seem more like a party of government. They've got this very detailed policy compared to One Nation, and they're hoping that's going to be what resonates with voters. Interestingly, what I'm... hearing within people in the coalition they don't think they'll have to they'll have this policy alone that went on they'll need to create other policies closer to the election but this is an important box to tick because this has been something that's been core to one nation's rise they have to have a strong policy around that and then try to make other policies and other issues closer to the election.
01:00:30
Speaker 6: I reckon there's two components to this because i actually think it's probably the the most well-constructed and clever bit of policy making that the libs have been have done probably since they were in government. I actually think this is a pretty sophisticated approach to what is a very complicated problem. It's a traditional liberal one. You can set that to one side, though, because I just wonder, the politics of it, is any of it going to matter? Is any of it going to reach the people that have already made a decision on this because they're so late to the party?
01:00:56
Speaker 7: And it feels like they've been dragged here by one person.
01:00:58
Speaker 6: Correct, correct.
01:00:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
01:01:02
Speaker 16: It's hard to know. It appears, though, One Nation's won the vibe on this issue, and it almost doesn't matter at this point how detailed a policy is. We see so many times, again, analysts saying, oh, this will kill One Nation, or the cost of policy might slow their rise. Inevitably, One Nation always rises. Of course, politics-wise, they've gone after... Certain visa classes that won't affect their base, they're not going to touch backpacker visas, that's a critical issue for the Nats in regional areas. International students aren't going to vote for the Liberal Party and halving this humanitarian intake hasn't affected them in the past. So there's politics all over this detailed policy as well. You'll be curious to see how it plays out. Angus Taylor hasn't done much to get the vote passed where Susan Lee was. There's been a couple of small rises. So I think it's critical for him to potentially hold that leadership to the next election. Otherwise, we may see a new Liberal leader if that polling doesn't improve.
01:01:59
Speaker 7: And next week, Parliament resumes. Nelson, it seems like card surcharges and the ATO's now refusal to take credit card payments is going to be a big one for the government. There's lots of small business owners down here today at our 5AA Golf Day who aren't too happy about the ATO stopping credit card payments.
01:02:17
Speaker 16: Yeah, a lot of small business owners and increasingly members of the Labour Party. So this goes back to the RBA's put the ban on surcharges. The Prime Minister came out and said, your coffee's going to be cheaper. That doesn't seem to be the case because processing fees don't disappear. Businesses absorb those costs. But on the day that occurred, the ATO announced this credit card ban. Unbeknown to the business community, they're outraged because a lot of small businesses use these credit cards to manage cash flow during difficult times. It can be really... But then yesterday, we've got Housing Minister Claire O'Neill expressing concern over the impact on small business. Small Business Minister Anna Lee said similar things. Andrew Charlton was backing that in. But this is something that isn't going away. The opposition is going to seize on it. I can imagine this being a very big issue in question time next week, and there'll be pressure on the government to backflip. And we'll see what happens there. They've done that with similar issues that continue to linger on, like the cap on allied health care in recent months. So expect this third big issue next week.
01:03:22
Speaker 6: Nelson, thank you. Nelson Scott, our 5AA Canberra correspondent. There's a few others I can think of. The allied health cap for veterans is a great one. But this government post-budget has shown a remarkable, demonstrated a remarkable capacity to not understand any of the flow-on effects of the policy decisions they make. discretionary testamentary trusts backflipped. They didn't see how the CGD change is going to change that. They didn't understand how their own grandfathering accommodations were going to make a widow's tax effectively come in if properties changed ownership in the event someone's spouse died. So they had to backflip on that. They forecast changes to the price of property that said property will just grow a bit slower as a result of this. It's collapsing before our eyes. And now we've got The credit card payment ban.
01:04:07
Speaker 7: Your coffee will be cheaper.
01:04:08
Speaker 6: No, it's not. They seem to be supremely ignorant to the outcome of the policy that they champion. And I wonder if we're going to get another backflip on this one.
01:04:18
Speaker 7: Surely they should be explored before the policy is implemented.
01:04:20
Speaker 6: I would have thought.
01:04:20
Speaker 7: Or even proposed publicly. You try and think through all of the results first.
01:04:24
Speaker 6: It blows my mind. Claire O'Neill is right on this. The Housing Minister is absolutely right. Because guaranteed her office will be inundated with small business owners saying, I'm sorry. Why are we doing this?
01:04:36
Speaker 11: Yeah.
01:04:36
Speaker 6: So now, if we have a cash flow problem, we have no capacity. So the problem for people to understand it is, if you're paying your tax with a credit card, you're probably doing so because cash flow-wise, you might not be liquid at that point in time. Knowing you will be, but it just gives you extra flexibility. Robbing businesses for that flexibility means they're going to be caught in situations where, at certain times, they might not have cash on hand in their current account or whatever to pay tax.
01:04:59
Speaker 7: And their BAS as well.
01:05:00
Speaker 6: And their BAS.
01:05:01
Speaker 7: There's different bills throughout the year that small businesses have to pay that a lot of them use credit cards for.
01:05:06
Speaker 6: Alright, we're going to take a quick break. We're going to talk penguins in a moment and we're going to try to get them vaccines to make sure they can survive bird flu. This is good. The Environment Minister will be our guest on the other side of the break. Six minutes to eight. The state government wants to start vaccinating penguins in South Australia against the H5 bird flu. Environment Minister Emily Burke joins us. Minister, good morning.
01:05:42
Speaker 17: Good morning. Thank you for having me.
01:05:44
Speaker 6: Why do we need the federal government to sign off on this?
01:05:47
Speaker 17: Well, the federal government, it's a national program. So all vaccination programs across every other state and territory also go through a national agenda because this is a new vaccine. It hasn't really been used. anywhere in abundance before, particularly in Australia. So we just need to make sure we've got the right procedures in order. We sign off on it at a state level, which we now have. So we've approved it with our chief vet in South Australia, and now it goes on to be approved at a national level with their chief vet as well. So it's just, I guess, a check and balance that we've got everything in order. And we're pleased as they do have confirmed that we have at a South Australian level approved that we can do a vaccination program here. And we now just wait for that final tick off so we can get going.
01:06:35
Speaker 7: How long do you think it'll take?
01:06:38
Speaker 21: We hope it won't.
01:06:38
Speaker 22: Take too long.
01:06:39
Speaker 17: We've put a fair bit of effort into it and worked with the federal government. So we'll continue to work with them to say, you know, what else do you need to say that you feel confident that everything's in order? But as we have with the Cleland Wildlife Park where we've had an approval there, we now have vaccinated over 150 birds across 30 different species and also worked with the Adelaide Zoo and that approval process has been ticked off and their first round of vaccinations have been rolled out as well. So we know that we're on the right path to getting it approved but at a state level we've ticked the boxes that.
01:07:13
Speaker 18: We need to.
01:07:15
Speaker 6: I hope they show a bit more urgency than they did with the algal bloom. So is this vaccine, can it extend it more than, is it specifically designed for penguins or will we see this vaccine used for other birds that are potentially vulnerable?
01:07:28
Speaker 17: So what we've been doing is going through birds in captivity first because it is a lot easier. We have to give a vaccine twice to the same bird within three or four weeks of each other. So You can understand in the wild that is very much more challenging. You've got to catch the same bird not only once but twice. So that's why it is a bit of a different step. We've gone from birds in captivity and then now going to wild birds. Our penguins particularly are a little bit different to the penguins on Phillip Island. They're not used to engaging with humans probably as much as they are in Phillip Island. And we're also looking at other colonies on Kangaroo Island as well as part of this approval process. So when we look at all the vaccine options that we're getting for approval, the Adelaide Zoo, we've already started vaccinating little penguins there. So that's also been playing into our research. So we're not just vaccinating them at the Adelaide Zoo. We're also doing blood tests to see how they're responding to the vaccine as well because this is new. Vaccine has always been one tool in this story of the birth flu. We can't stop birth flu, but we can try and find every tool possible to help slow down the spread. And that's why we've done a lot of preparedness work as well before birth flu was even spoken about in the last two years.
01:08:51
Speaker 7: Okay, Minister, thanks for your time. Nicola Santafanti has called in the Shadow Minister for Primary Industries. Nicola Santafanti, how does your party feel about vaccines at the moment? Pro, anti? Does it make a difference if it's humans or penguins?
01:09:08
Speaker 20: Yeah, morning, Stacey, and well, look, we welcome this step, but I think many of your listeners would be thinking, you know, why is it taking so long? Victoria began vaccinating its penguin population back in mid-August, yet Here we are months later and the South Australian government's still talking about it. It's still not confirmed. And we don't have a clear start date. I mean, these are vulnerable birds facing a very real threat. And we need to just move beyond announcements and get on with delivering protection because.
01:09:36
Speaker 6: So, Victoria, what, they're using the same vaccine to us?
01:09:41
Speaker 8: Yeah, absolutely.
01:09:42
Speaker 20: That's my understanding.
01:09:43
Speaker 6: Why do we need approval then?
01:09:46
Speaker 3: This is the question.
01:09:47
Speaker 20: This is the question, Will.
01:09:48
Speaker 11: I mean.
01:09:48
Speaker 20: You know, an announcement doesn't protect a single penguin delivering a vaccination program.
01:09:54
Speaker 9: It does.
01:09:54
Speaker 20: And, you know, we need a clear start date. Victoria went months ago. Where's the South Australian government with this?
01:10:02
Speaker 6: That's, well, that's a very fair question. Thank you, Nicola Sendevani. That's a very fair question. That's just bureaucracy gone mad. That's what that is.
01:10:10
Speaker 7: We didn't really get an answer as to how long it'll take.
01:10:12
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, I wonder who's got carriage of it. Probably Murray Watt. I was going to say, if it's Murray Watt, I wouldn't want to be a penguin. 5AA News is coming up. Let's take a quick break. Breaking at eight on the other side of it. I heard my mama cry.
01:10:29
Speaker 5: Knock down.
01:10:30
Speaker 7: Build two.
01:10:30
Speaker 5: With Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes.
01:10:36
Speaker 7: They do it all for you.
01:10:37
Speaker 2: Real Goodies with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
01:10:43
Speaker 6: Eight minutes after eight, breaking eight coming up in just a moment. We're going to play a little game of nearest to the pin very shortly. It will be golf related. There was a lot of yelling just there out in the course.
01:10:53
Speaker 7: Oh, there's high-fiving.
01:10:55
Speaker 6: We didn't see a hole in one. Did someone just maybe chip in? Oh, it was a birdie, was it, says Jess. Jess is keeping an eagle eye on everything that's happening on the course. It's like our eyes on the course at the moment.
01:11:03
Speaker 7: I can see envy in your eyes, Jess.
01:11:05
Speaker 6: Yeah. A birdie right in front of us on the 10th. I think that's the, we think that's the 10th. Oh, no, the 9th. That's the 9th green. The 10th is just there. Very excited.
01:11:13
Speaker 7: Can you smell the rain?
01:11:14
Speaker 11: Yes.
01:11:14
Speaker 7: It's not raining, but the temperature just changed and I can almost smell it coming in.
01:11:21
Speaker 6: Actually, it can't be petrichor because that's after the rain hits the ground, I think. I'm trying to remember Jane Riley's lessons that she used to always teach us. But yeah, you can smell the rain.
01:11:28
Speaker 7: You can smell it.
01:11:29
Speaker 6: It's all the way. Well, think about the rain because that might put you in a good position for our nearest to the pin very, very shortly. Feedback Friday, of course, after 8.30 as well. And we'll wrap things up with the top five of the week. Lots of text coming through. We should just mark the fact that we have received a stack of texts like this one from Jen, who says, I'm utterly shocked for Ginny and her hospital experience. Ginny, our guest after seven this morning. Mally promised one thing to fix ramping, which would also allow a 71-year-old patient to lay on the floor. The other major issue is the lack of confidentiality for the other patient being treated in the room. It's disgusting on every level. Yes, it is, Jen. Thank you. The point that Jen's making there is something that Ginny told us, that not only was she lying on the ground the entire time, whilst being treated. 71 years of age, mind you. The guy next to her was being treated as well, and his doctor's explaining the prognosis and what's going on with his private health condition. She said, well, I was privy to the whole thing.
01:12:23
Speaker 7: Here's your treatment that you need. This is your medication that you might need. She knows every detail about him and his situation at the moment.
01:12:30
Speaker 6: Just appalling. Michael's got a suggestion for Meat Tray Friday, thanks to Goodwood Quality Meats. We're asking you about things that should be free but aren't. He says, I think... something that should be free is gravy included in meals at hotels. These days it's generally become an extra and that is totally wrong and it is un-Australian. Michael, you're in the running to win a meat tray. So with you. Keep them coming in, 8223 0000 or text us on 044808 1395.
01:12:59
Speaker 7: And now our meat tray Friday today is what should be free and isn't, is partly inspired by councils charging for parking or the proposal to charge for parking in Harndorf and We've been talking about parking in the city as well and the cost of doing that. Parking on Gooja Street could get more difficult very soon because there's a multi-million dollar upgrade about to start. And some local businesses are pretty unhappy about the consultation process because it seems like it could be changing quite significantly. Susanna Wong is the manager of Wahing Restaurant, a really well-known restaurant on Gooja Street, and she joins you this morning. Good morning to you, Susanna.
01:13:40
Speaker 24: Good morning, Stacey. Good morning, Will.
01:13:43
Speaker 7: So were you directly consulted on these plans for Gooja Street?
01:13:48
Speaker 24: So when Townsville came to us, it was basically, it wasn't a consult. It was just to.
01:13:54
Speaker 16: Inform what was.
01:13:57
Speaker 24: Going to happen on Gooja Street. So it was quite, we were sort of bombarded in a way.
01:14:05
Speaker 7: And what is the new plan that you're aware of? What do you think are the key changes that will affect you and other business owners on the street?
01:14:14
Speaker 24: So from what I saw from the plans, what they will do is from Morfitt Street to King William, they're going to redo the whole entire street. They're going to make the footpath wider. So they're going to basically remove a lot of the car parks on the street parking so the road will be a lot more narrower.
01:14:37
Speaker 12: Right.
01:14:38
Speaker 7: Make the footpaths wider, remove the car parks. And about outdoor dining as well, there's some changes to the way you can have outdoor dining?
01:14:48
Speaker 24: So a few of the restaurants and the pubs on Goodyear Street, we have fixed tables. So they've been fixed there for, for an example, our restaurants. is 21 years old. Those tables have been fixed in there for 21 years. We've changed them over the years, but they've been fixed. So they want no fixed furniture whatsoever. So it's a lot more lugging.
01:15:12
Speaker 7: So I imagine there'll be a cost to change that over.
01:15:16
Speaker 24: Yes, because we pay for our own tables and chairs and they're commercial tables and chairs. So they cost a lot more than your domestic tables and chairs. because they're meant to survive the outdoor, they're meant to survive people sitting on top of them. But when we first were told of that, I compromised with council. I said, okay, that's fine. If you're going to remove our tables, then you should replace our tables at your cost of my choosing, which I thought was quite fair. But then they came back to us, And they said, okay, no, we can't replace your tables, but we will waive the outdoor dining fee duration of the project and a year after, which still doesn't cover the cost of the tables. But I thought, okay, we're coming somewhere. And then eventually we got another email saying, no, now we're going to just waive a three-month that's meant to be in front of your restaurant, the project, and then a year after.
01:16:22
Speaker 6: Oh, wow. Okay.
01:16:24
Speaker 7: And so the council says that they have done consultation. Are you aware of how widespread that consultation was and why businesses weren't sort of asked ahead of time before the plan being put forward?
01:16:37
Speaker 24: So they informed me that they even talked to people in Port Lincoln and people in Port Lincoln think it's a great idea. But then every customer that I've spoken to, and a lot of them living in the CBD, didn't even realise this was going on.
01:16:58
Speaker 7: Right. And it sounds like there'll be a lot of works in front of your restaurant for a while, which won't be ideal.
01:17:06
Speaker 24: No, it won't be ideal. It's just the same as when they did Field Street, which is around the corner. It's just the amount of dirt, noise. Yeah, and then traffic chaos.
01:17:21
Speaker 7: So what happens now for you? You just kind of have to lump it and live with it, or is there anything you can do about it?
01:17:28
Speaker 24: Well, we've tried, because they've asked us, like, you know, of our opinion and emailed them, and we've done that multiple times of what we think, and then all we got is an automated email saying that, yes, we received your email, and that's it.
01:17:44
Speaker 3: Wow.
01:17:44
Speaker 16: Hmm.
01:17:46
Speaker 7: Well, keep in touch. We'd love to see if there are any updates to this. Susanna, thanks for your time.
01:17:52
Speaker 24: Thank you, Stacey.
01:17:58
Speaker 7: Susanna Wong there, the manager at Wahing.
01:18:00
Speaker 6: It just feels like businesses in the city have this antagonistic relationship with the council that ostensibly exists to represent them.
01:18:08
Speaker 7: I just can't fathom how hard it would be to go and knock on the doors.
01:18:16
Speaker 7: You know when they're open? Because you set their trading hours. Put a letter under the front door to say, hey, we're planning an upgrade. Here's the link to the consultation if you'd like to have your say. And, you know, Susanna makes a good point. A lot of councils do do this. We were talking about parking in Harndorf, and neither of us live in Harndorf, but we've got views on maybe how it should be planned out. So fair enough for someone who visits Adelaide CBD to get a say in consultation, but you would think those who are directly affected, directly impacted, businesses who pay a higher rate in their rates to the Adelaide City Council should get more of a say. Maybe their considerations should be weighted higher than someone who lives in Port Lincoln.
01:18:55
Speaker 6: Especially when, and maybe it's a byproduct of a system where the business gets a vote and so does every individual resident or so does everyone in an apartment tower and it just dilutes the overall power of businesses to make change. But It just seems remarkable that they're constantly having to fight to get recognition when they exist as, for me and for you and for people who live outside the city, the reason we go to the city is to interact with businesses.
01:19:21
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's not to visit people in apartment buildings.
01:19:23
Speaker 6: Yeah, these aren't some sort of corporate entities that are just printing cash and whinging about some things getting in their way. They are the reason we go to the city. There wouldn't be a city that exists like we understand it if these businesses... Couldn't exist. It just boggles the mind. 17 minutes after 8, we're going to take a break. We're going to play nearest to the pin in just a moment. There's a lot of yelling out in the course.
01:19:46
Speaker 7: Is that good or bad with golf?
01:19:48
Speaker 6: Something's either going really well or something's going really badly. We're not sure. Could be either way at the golf day. We'll take a break, though, and come back with more. That'd be great. I feel for these guys teeing off right.
01:19:57
Speaker 7: In front of us all the time.
01:19:58
Speaker 6: We try to look the other way.
01:20:01
Speaker 5: Knock down, build two with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
01:20:10
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
01:20:13
Speaker 6: 22 after 8, the meat tray, thanks to Goodwood Quality Meats, are asking you things that should be free that aren't. How about this from Mike?
01:20:21
Speaker 7: Oh, I'm outraged.
01:20:23
Speaker 6: Mike says, good morning, Will and Stacey. Recently ordered a calzone from the Northeastern Suburbs pub and noticed a small bowl of tomato sauce was an extra $ 7 where it was just part of the dish every other time I'd ordered it. It's a bit like ordering a pasta dish and they want to charge you extra for the sauce. I wouldn't be going back, Mike.
01:20:42
Speaker 7: No.
01:20:43
Speaker 6: We're going to vote with our feet about this kind of stuff.
01:20:45
Speaker 7: When a meal is expected to come with an item, like I think a pie or a sausage roll is expected to come with sauce.
01:20:52
Speaker 6: Absolutely.
01:20:52
Speaker 7: A calzone is expected to come with the sauce on top. You're right. That's like ordering a lasagna, but you've got to pay extra for the cheese.
01:20:58
Speaker 6: It is outrageous.
01:21:00
Speaker 7: No, no, no.
01:21:01
Speaker 6: What is the ACCC doing? 23 after 8. Let's play a little game of nearest to the pins.
01:21:10
Speaker 2: That's one of the great moments in Live Golf history.
01:21:14
Speaker 6: Nearest to the pin.
01:21:16
Speaker 2: On 5AA Breakfast.
01:21:18
Speaker 6: Makes perfect sense here at the Glenelg Golf Club. A little game of nearest to the pin. We have Cheesefest tickets to give away next, not this weekend, but next weekend. For you and three friends, Cheesefest runs both days, the 17th and the 18th. You can get tickets at cheesefest.com.au. Great event. We love it. It's impossible to have a bad time at Cheesefest. If you like cheese and wine, frankly, who doesn't?
01:21:37
Speaker 12: Who doesn't?
01:21:37
Speaker 6: 8223 0000, get calling now. We want you to tell us how much rain we'll get in the airport gauge between 8 o'clock, so we've already had 24 minutes, and midday, which is the sort of rough time that our golf day runs. How much rain are we going to get? You can look at the radar, take a guess to the decimal point. How many millimetres?
01:22:01
Speaker 12: Millimetres.
01:22:02
Speaker 6: Millimetres. 8223 0000, nearest to the pin, how many millimetres of rain between 8 a.m. and midday today are we going to get, and we can win Cheesefest tickets in the process.
01:22:15
Speaker 7: Little tip, when we spoke to the Weather Bureau, they said we were expecting a fair bit of rain, but the big chunk of it would be coming tonight.
01:22:21
Speaker 6: That's right.
01:22:21
Speaker 7: So there is a rain band coming this morning, but the bigger one's tonight. So maybe that will inform your guess.
01:22:29
Speaker 6: That's a good point. Let's go to Ridgehaven. David, how much rain do you think we're going to get?
01:22:34
Speaker 13: Eight and a half mils.
01:22:36
Speaker 6: Please eight and a half eight and a half thank you uh let's go to yuri in beaumont how much rain uh here in the western suburbs 6.2 6.2 thank you yuri it's a lot of predictions of a serious early down early downpour just to be clear we've made 25 minutes without any rain that's uh graham and ingle farm good morning good.

01:23:31
Speaker 2: Yep.
01:23:32
Speaker 6: Okay. Thank you, Marge. You're in the running to win the Cheesefest tickets. Trevor in Port Norlunga South. What say you? 3.1.
01:23:39
Speaker 13: 3.1?
01:23:40
Speaker 6: Is that the low number so far?
01:23:43
Speaker 7: That's a low number.
01:23:44
Speaker 6: So what's the range? 3.1, the low number?
01:23:46
Speaker 12: To 8.5.
01:23:46
Speaker 6: To 8.5. I'll tell you what.
01:23:49
Speaker 7: We've got to guess on the text line for 0.0.
01:23:52
Speaker 6: They're winning at the moment. If it's 8.5, Timmy Ginniver is going to knock me out of the sports show tonight. He might be drowned. Mark in Finden, good morning. Good morning. 3.5. 3.5. We might stay in Finden and go to Keith.
01:24:08
Speaker 22: Yeah, I'm saying 0.8.
01:24:08
Speaker 3: Oh, that's the low.
01:24:11
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that's clever. Let's go to Summit and Park. Paul, you'll know the local conditions.
01:24:16
Speaker 16: 1.1 today, my friend.
01:24:20
Speaker 6: 1.1. Thank you, Paul. Jack in Enfield, good morning. Howdy.

01:24:34

01:24:35
Speaker 7: I think... Oh, OK.
01:24:38
Speaker 6: Are we going to take any more? Maybe one more. Again, local, Glen Gowrie. Marion, good morning.
01:24:44
Speaker 14: Point one.
01:24:46
Speaker 6: Point one. Point one. Thank you, Marion. You are the low watermark.
01:24:51
Speaker 12: Yep.
01:24:51
Speaker 6: Mind the pond. So good luck to you and everyone who registered in nearest to the pin. Could be you going to Cheesefest. We will be announcing the winner... Monday morning, we'll give those tickets away. Then if you missed out with Nearest to the Pin, do not despair. We have more opportunities to win after 8.30 because Feedback Friday is coming up in a moment. Three great prizes, four simple questions, no wrong answers. We might squeeze in a Meat Tray Friday entry before we get there, though. Mark in West Croydon, what's something that's not free that should be?
01:25:20
Speaker 3: Well, what used to be free is no longer. When I was a kid, the first time that I ever went to the show back in the 60s, My father was furious because we were paying money for show bags, and he forever continually reminds us that back in his day, show bags were free. They were called sample bags.
01:25:40
Speaker 6: They were sample bags. Yeah, exactly right.
01:25:44
Speaker 3: And Dad would say the sample bags were absolutely chock-a-block full of stuff that people were giving away.
01:25:52
Speaker 6: Yeah, isn't it funny?
01:25:54
Speaker 3: They even struggled to give the show bags or sample bags away.
01:25:58
Speaker 6: Well, your father would be unable to sleep if he saw what they cost these days. Thank you, Mark. Let's go to Beaumont. Frances, what's something that's not free that should be?
01:26:10
Speaker 12: I absolutely resent being asked if I'd like to buy a bag when I've bought seven items in a chemist or five things at Target. I'm not going to buy a bag that advertises their shop for them.
01:26:24
Speaker 11: No.
01:26:25
Speaker 6: Yep. Thank you, Frances. Keep them coming in. We just got momentarily distracted because Chris Jarman just turned up and he owns a putter that is the Happy Gilmore putter. Shaped like a hockey stick. He's got a.
01:26:37
Speaker 7: He's got a happy sock on it as well.
01:26:39
Speaker 6: He's got a happy sock on it. He literally has the Happy Gilmore putter. I've never seen one of those in the wild before. I didn't know that was a thing. Is that regulation? I'm not sure. It doesn't matter. It's the 5AA Golf Day. We can make the rules for today. Let's take a break. 5AA News is coming up. Feedback Friday in a moment. And we will announce a meat tray Friday winter before nine.
01:26:59
Speaker 2: Knockdown.
01:27:00
Speaker 5: Bill 2. With Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment.
01:27:05
Speaker 7: Metro Homes. They do it all for you.
01:27:07
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast.
01:27:12
Speaker 6: Coming up to 20 minutes to nine, it's almost Feedback Friday time. Three spots available if you want to get calling now. 8223 0000 is the number. We've a Smeg toaster, a $ 50 Colac voucher, and a $ 50 Gramazio Foods meat tray to give away. Everyone wins a prize. There are no wrong answers. A lot of fun. Get calling right now. First three callers through will contest for Feedback Friday. 8223 0000.
01:27:34
Speaker 7: We've been getting some text messages following Breaking at Eight, and I just want to read this one out from Colin. Adelaide City businesses contribute around 70% of the total rates received. The issue often is getting businesses to vote. Outside furniture for food and beverages should be free, provided it's safe for pedestrians and motorists, period. Having vibrancy and ambience in the city, inviting consumers is the key. We've got the technology to accommodate by vehicle licence plate to allow first-time slot free and then move on, no matter whether it's two hours, one hour, et cetera. They all sound like pretty reasonable suggestions. Colin Shearing. advocate for small SA businesses. He said he'll be running for City Council in 2027. Well, that would.
01:28:15
Speaker 6: Be someone focused on the businesses of the council, wouldn't it? Thank you, Colin. That all makes a lot of sense. One Feedback Friday spot available, 8223 0000. Let's take a meat tray Friday call first. Mike's on the line. Mike, what's something that should be free that isn't?
01:28:29
Speaker 13: Yeah, meat should be free, and it will be if I win the prize.
01:28:32
Speaker 6: Thank you, Mike. I don't know if Goodwood Quality Meats will like the sound. of that, but they have provided the meat, right? Exactly right. Feedback Friday, a couple of spots available.
01:28:47
Speaker 12: 8223 0000.
01:28:47
Speaker 6: The SMEG appliance is always part of the equation. Building or renovating your first choice. Should be visiting the SMEG showroom. Definitely distributors taste the difference with SMEG. But speaking further to Mike's point, we have meat on the agenda for the Feedback Friday as well. Gramazio Foods, who you might recall, they've done many meat trays. Our only celiac-certified butcher in South Australia. They're at Burnside Village, Golden Grove Village as well, and online at gramaziofoods.com.au, changing the perception of gluten-free foods. All right, let's get into the feedback, shall we? Feedback! Let's start things in Nord. James, good morning to you.
01:29:35
Speaker 8: Good morning, Will.
01:29:36
Speaker 14: By the way, I'm now a North Adelaide resident.
01:29:40
Speaker 6: Are you?
01:29:41
Speaker 4: I am.
01:29:42
Speaker 6: What's your take on noise pollution, James?
01:29:45
Speaker 14: Well, interesting because we have the flight path right over top of us, but it's amazing how quick that noise goes away.
01:29:55
Speaker 6: Yeah, I agree with that. It does. You just adjust to it. That can be your first question, James, actually. You'll have a good insight on this one, too, given your current lodgings. How often do you pay for parking?
01:30:06
Speaker 25: Ah, well, that's... Two-hour event parking here in North Adelaide, and I'm a footy and cricket member, so it can be very dodgy if.
01:30:20
Speaker 14: You don't have any parking out in front of your street.
01:30:23
Speaker 20: Yeah.
01:30:24
Speaker 14: I choose not to pay. I choose to walk extra.
01:30:28
Speaker 6: You paint a very pretty picture, James, being an Adelaide Oval member and living in North Adelaide. I reckon it sounds like a recipe for a lot of fun. What's your go-to hobby?
01:30:38
Speaker 14: Well, my go-to hobby is very poor golf.
01:30:43
Speaker 6: We need you for a golf day.
01:30:45
Speaker 14: Yeah, I would love to have done that, but my biggest handicap is my golf swing.
01:30:52
Speaker 6: Just lastly, James, we had... Well, we do still have Saturn in a very observable position at the moment in the night sky or the early morning sky. Do you have a favourite planet?
01:31:03
Speaker 14: Oh, I love the Bowie song Life on Mars, so I think Mars would be my favourite.
01:31:11
Speaker 6: Mars has always captivated humanity. James, thank you. Let's go to Prospect.
01:31:15
Speaker 7: I think that was the drinks cart just going by there.
01:31:18
Speaker 6: That's a dangerous thing. Handing out some drinks. It's 8.43 in the morning. A few of them have already loaded up. Rob, good morning. Good morning, hello. Rob, would you offer.
01:31:28
Speaker 21: I was wondering with that last question, my famous plan is Uranus.
01:31:33
Speaker 6: Thank you, Rob.
01:31:34
Speaker 7: I was waiting for a bit of a judge to do that.
01:31:36
Speaker 6: Thank you, Rob.
01:31:37
Speaker 7: Yeah, sorry.
01:31:39
Speaker 6: Rob, would you offer up a room at Government House for lease, if you could? Matt Abraham would sell the whole thing.
01:31:46
Speaker 13: Oh, absolutely, yeah.
01:31:47
Speaker 21: It would return good money.
01:31:49
Speaker 16: I think.
01:31:50
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it would. Your rent would be pretty solid.
01:31:52
Speaker 1: When did you last go to.
01:31:56
Speaker 6: When did you last go to David Jones, Rob?
01:31:59
Speaker 21: A long, long time ago. Would be over 30, 40 years, I reckon.
01:32:04
Speaker 6: Wow. Yeah, well, maybe that's why, Rob. They're having some difficulties at the moment, old DJs. Have you got a favourite show on Channel 10?
01:32:13
Speaker 21: I never watch Channel 10, sorry. I don't think there's much on there, so I don't think the regional towns are going to miss out much on losing that.
01:32:22
Speaker 6: Very good, Rob. You knew the context of the question. I love Gogglebox. Gogglebox. Do you suffer from hay fever, Rob?
01:32:29
Speaker 13: Not really, no.
01:32:32
Speaker 21: I do get, I suppose I do a little bit, you know, in the conditions, I get watery eyes. So I guess I attribute it probably to either tear ducts or hay fever, I'm not sure.
01:32:44
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, that makes sense. Thank you, Rob. We had that interesting story earlier in the week that the, The correlation between the pollen report and how it affects individuals is not as strong as you might think because the sensitivity is so variable that you might say there's not much or there's a lot. And for a lot of people, that's going to be totally irrelevant because it may or may not set you off. Thank you, Rob. Let's go to Terry in Kupanda. Morning, Terry.
01:33:07
Speaker 13: Yes, good morning.
01:33:09
Speaker 6: What's the sport that you're into now that footy season's over?
01:33:12
Speaker 1: That would have to be eight ball.
01:33:17
Speaker 6: Eight ball. You a bit of a shark, Terry?
01:33:21
Speaker 1: No, not particularly. I have my own table, so the winter man is outside under the veranda, so when the sun's out, the guns are out, and my stick's out of the cue rack.
01:33:34
Speaker 6: Oh, that sounds magnificent, Terry. Do you find golf exciting or boring?
01:33:39
Speaker 1: Oh, I love golf.
01:33:43
Speaker 6: We're going to make feedback for our prize next week as you all get to come to golf day.
01:33:48
Speaker 1: Yes.
01:33:50
Speaker 6: Have you been sick this winter, Terry?
01:33:53
Speaker 1: Yes, I have, actually, yes. I've been sick of winter.
01:33:56
Speaker 6: Oh, that's so good. Well, it's sort of over, except for the start of next week.
01:34:02
Speaker 15: Yeah.
01:34:03
Speaker 6: Harndorf, overrated or underrated?
01:34:05
Speaker 1: Overrated by about 30 kilometres. I'm a Kapunda boy.
01:34:11
Speaker 12: Yeah.
01:34:18
Speaker 1: It might be a bit further than 30, but, you know, free parking outside of that area.
01:34:25
Speaker 7: Yeah.
01:34:26
Speaker 6: That's actually very good. Thank you, Terry. Appreciate it.
01:34:29
Speaker 7: Imagine if they implemented paid parking in the main street of Kapunga.
01:34:32
Speaker 6: That would not go down well. There would be a riot then. We also have the Colac $ 50 voucher at the Colac Port Adelaide from the relaxed bars of Bootleg Social with share plates and wood-fired pizzas to premium dining at Elliot's or cocktails and waterfront views upstairs. The Colac has something for everyone. Who gets what, Stace?
01:34:50
Speaker 18: All right.
01:34:51
Speaker 7: I reckon Terry gets the Smeg toaster.
01:34:54
Speaker 6: Yep.
01:34:54
Speaker 7: James gets the Gramazio Foods meat tray and Rob gets the $ 50 Colac voucher.
01:34:59
Speaker 6: All right. Brilliant work, everyone. Thank you for being part of Feedback Friday. We're going to catch a break and check traffic. We will give away the meat tray and count down the week's top five in just a moment.
01:35:12
Speaker 5: Knock down, build two with Metro Homes. Sell one and move on. Keep the other as an investment. Metro Homes, they do it all for you.
01:35:20
Speaker 2: Will Goodings with Stacey Lee. This is 5AA Breakfast. Nine minutes to nine. We have a Meat Tray Friday winner to announce. We might as well do that first, I think. Big thanks to Goodwood Quality Meats. The more coming through on the deck.
01:35:34
Speaker 7: Before we announce a winner, yeah, I just want to mention a couple others that came through, and I think this is a great one from Vardis. A sample slice of Smiley Fritz to the kids should be free.
01:35:46
Speaker 6: Can I tell Vardis, the sandwich bar at the West Lakes Food Court, I went there with Rosie about a year ago and they saw her and they went, time to give her some, has she ever had Fritz? And I said, actually, she hasn't. They went, well, here you go. Smiley Fritz, gave it for free. Legend. Some people still do it, Vardis.
01:36:04
Speaker 7: Shout out to them. And Jay has the same thought that I did. Back in the 60s, grocery bags were free. Now they charge you 30 cents for a paper bag.
01:36:13
Speaker 6: That is outrageous. I think you win the meat tray for that one, actually. Goodwood Quality Meats. Luke, Dave and the team, they do a wonderful job. 121 Goodwood Road at Goodwood. Their meat tray is always absolutely exceptional. Who wins it this morning?
01:36:27
Speaker 7: Oh, it's been really hard.
01:36:29
Speaker 6: You got some honourable mentions?
01:36:30
Speaker 7: Yeah. Honourable mention for Gary in Salisbury for shopping centre gift vouchers.
01:36:36
Speaker 6: Oh, the surcharge. Yeah, the surcharge. The processing fee or whatever. Yes, that was ridiculous.
01:36:40
Speaker 7: And Warwick and Mitchum for Jared Roughead should be free if the Crows aren't going to make any changes during the trade show.
01:36:47
Speaker 6: Just let him run free.
01:36:49
Speaker 7: But I think Dave in Elizabeth for saying football on the TV should be free.
01:36:54
Speaker 6: Yes. Yeah, it feels like that one is heading in the same direction as free parking in Arndorf. Something you'll be able to tell your kids about. All right, should we do the top five?
01:37:04
Speaker 7: Yep, let's do it.
01:37:04
Speaker 6: Let's do it.
01:37:06
Speaker 2: The top five of the week.
01:37:08
Speaker 6: Here's the number five spot.
01:37:11
Speaker 7: David Koch.
01:37:14
Speaker 2: On 5AA Breakfast.
01:37:21
Speaker 6: Eight to seven. David Conch, Port Adelaide Football Club chairman, compared to market economic director, about to join us. I pushed the button a little bit early. He's not quite there. He's coming up in a second. Don't worry.
01:37:30
Speaker 7: It happens to everyone. We're getting a lot of text messages in. Very pleased with the governor announcement. Meredith, what a perfect choice, Commissioner. You'll be brilliant at your new role.
01:37:46
Speaker 15: Stop it.
01:37:47
Speaker 6: So I didn't say anything, Stacey. It was you. This is what happens when Koshi's not available. Things go off the rails. Koshi wasn't available.
01:37:55
Speaker 7: I was just trying to push through.
01:37:57
Speaker 6: Stacey, I mean, she's just wonderfully supportive, and that's a beautiful thing. Number four.
01:38:04
Speaker 7: Nicola Santafanti, how does your party feel about vaccines at the moment? Pro, anti? Does it make a difference if it's humans or penguins?
01:38:11
Speaker 20: Yeah, morning, Stacey. And, well, look, we welcome this step, but I think many of your listeners would be thinking, you know, why is it taking so long?
01:38:20
Speaker 6: I think it was an exciting thing to contemplate, the anti-vax penguin movement.
01:38:23
Speaker 7: Well, you know, at least we now know the Liberal Party in South Australia is pro-penguin vaccine. We're not sure how they... stand on human vaccines, but we'll find out.
01:38:32
Speaker 6: A lot of clarity around penguins. Number three spot. Kate, what's a saying people get wrong?
01:38:36
Speaker 3: My husband always gets this wrong.
01:38:39
Speaker 10: Whenever he's talking about something, he says, do they have to be so renal.
01:38:42
Speaker 17: About it instead of anal?
01:38:44
Speaker 24: So, yeah, he always mentions the renal.
01:38:47
Speaker 6: Does he do that on purpose, Kate?
01:38:49
Speaker 15: No, no, no, no.
01:38:51
Speaker 6: Hey, Kate, I get the sense you've been married for a long time.
01:38:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably too long.
01:38:56
Speaker 6: LAUGHTER We had a few people dobbing in partners for sayings they get wrong earlier in the week.
01:39:03
Speaker 7: That was inspired by Rowie. Put that in your bank and smoke it.
01:39:06
Speaker 6: Put that in your bank and smoke it, Stephen Rowie. The number two spot.
01:39:10
Speaker 9: And the word was used a bit later. Ms, Ms, and I like doing this.
01:39:14
Speaker 26: Ms Organic Growth. I just want to know Ms Organic Growth. How many Norm Smiths has.
01:39:20
Speaker 9: Mr. Growth won, or how many Browns?
01:39:22
Speaker 6: I just thought I'd.
01:39:24
Speaker 26: Ask you, Will, how many center square clearances has organic growth done? They need to get and try and get Will Day this year.
01:39:34
Speaker 9: I don't know. You had all the money for Zach Bailey.
01:39:35
Speaker 6: Why would Will Day leave?
01:39:37
Speaker 9: I don't know.
01:39:37
Speaker 26: But please, please, please, here's a plea from me on behalf of all the fans, including you.
01:39:43
Speaker 9: Will, back there.
01:39:45
Speaker 26: Organic growth will do three-fifths of F all for our club next year.
01:39:50
Speaker 6: Boom.
01:39:51
Speaker 9: Put that in the bank and smoke it.
01:39:53
Speaker 6: There it is. That's the origin of the put that bank and smoke it. We all said the curiosity of Rowe using the non-specific, what are they called?
01:40:01
Speaker 7: Gender neutral.
01:40:01
Speaker 11: No.
01:40:02
Speaker 6: But it's not because Ms is just not, if you're not declaring you're married or not, isn't it? Yes. But I know the point he was making about organic growth.
01:40:12
Speaker 7: But he was being very specific about the... It's not a pronoun.
01:40:15
Speaker 6: Yeah, what is it? It's some denim.
01:40:17
Speaker 7: Miz instead of mister? That went over my head. I didn't quite understand it.
01:40:21
Speaker 6: It's just rowdy. Number one spot. The incoming Governor of South Australia, our.
01:40:34
Speaker 23: Police Commissioner, Grant Stevens.
01:40:37
Speaker 6: Commissioner, good morning to you.
01:40:39
Speaker 9: Well, good morning and If that's a better background theme song than I'm Too Sexy.
01:40:45
Speaker 6: Was that what you were requesting? No, no, that's my ringtone. Oh, that's your ringtone. It is too.
01:40:51
Speaker 7: It went off during COVID press conference.
01:40:52
Speaker 6: I remember that. Yeah, yeah. So that's followed me.
01:40:56
Speaker 7: I think it would be safe to say it's the first time a governor has ever had that as their ringtone.
01:41:01
Speaker 6: As governor. There he is, our new incoming governor, Grant Stephens, who we spoke to earlier in the week. That was... That was a lot of fun. Let's check the fuel situation before we leave things here at the Glenelg Golf Club. Don't get stuck on the side of the road. Get an RAA road service. The cheapest, the Liberty Clarence Garden South Road, $ 2. 21. 9. The Yugo Clearview, Main North Road, $ 2. 25. 5. Leroy's Hacker, Main South Road, $ 2. 27. 5. And the cheapest diesel, United Henley Beach Road, Henley Beach, again, at $ 2.
01:41:32
Speaker 8: 78. 5.
01:41:32
Speaker 6: We'll try and stay dry today, folks. Enjoy your weekend, and we'll catch you Monday morning from 6.
01:41:54
Speaker 19: This is Radio Nowhere. Is there anybody home?
