- 0:04Speaker 2: 5AA Early Breakfast.
- 0:12Speaker 3: Four after five.
- 0:13Speaker 4: Good morning.
- 0:14Speaker 3: Welcome along to Early Breakfast on this Thursday morning, the
- 0:17Speaker 3: day of October. Going for a glorious top of 28
- 0:21Speaker 3: degrees and sunny before we cool off and some rain
- 0:24Speaker 3: is around. Approaching the weekend, 23 degrees with some showers
- 0:27Speaker 3: on Friday. Saturday, 20 degrees. A possible morning shower. Sunday
- 0:31Speaker 3: might be a bit warm and humid. 27 showers developing. But, Nettie,
- 0:36Speaker 3: Monday and Tuesday, we are really getting a feel of
- 0:39Speaker 3: winter again. Monday, 18 degrees with showers easing. Tuesday, 15.
- 0:43Speaker 3: Currently in the city, though, a bit warm, 17.7. Morning
- 0:47Speaker 3: to you.
- 0:47Speaker 5: Morning to you and morning to the high-fivers, importantly. How
- 0:51Speaker 5: did everyone sleep? Or have you not even gotten there yet?
- 0:54Speaker 5: Would love to know either way.
- 0:56Speaker 3: Not even gotten there? Well, some people... Some people.
- 0:59Speaker 5: Might be having a late night. I mean, 5 a.m.,
- 1:02Speaker 5: I hope they're not. But perhaps someone's tossing and turning.
- 1:07Speaker 5: They're thinking about all the realities in their life, good, bad,
- 1:11Speaker 5: or otherwise. I mean, you never know. You never know.
- 1:13Speaker 5: Some of our listeners might not be great sleepers. Have
- 1:16Speaker 5: we been through sleeping hacks?
- 1:19Speaker 3: Sleeping hacks? No, I don't think we have. That's a
- 1:22Speaker 3: good one.
- 1:22Speaker 5: Sleeping hacks. There's a couple of goodies. Getting warm before bed.
- 1:27Speaker 3: Getting warm.
- 1:28Speaker 6: Yep.
- 1:29Speaker 3: I always thought that you had to let your body
- 1:31Speaker 3: cool down before sleep. The way you sleep is that
- 1:35Speaker 3: your body needs to cool down.
- 1:38Speaker 5: Are you sure?
- 1:38Speaker 2: Yep.
- 1:39Speaker 5: Sauna, infrared sauna before bed.
- 1:41Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, because we all have one of them.
- 1:43Speaker 5: No, well, I don't even have one. They're very good
- 1:45Speaker 5: when I was playing football. I used to do that.
- 1:47Speaker 5: What else is some sleeping hacks? Dark room, off your phone.
- 1:51Speaker 3: Off your phone. What's that? Now before you go to bed,
- 1:53Speaker 3: you're supposed to be off your phone. You could get
- 1:55Speaker 3: some cups of tea. Is it chamomile tea that helps
- 1:57Speaker 3: with sleep?
- 1:58Speaker 5: Now we're talking.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Warm milk.
- 2:00Speaker 5: Warm milk. Warm milk. Good idea.
- 2:03Speaker 3: Sleeping tablets? Yes.
- 2:04Speaker 5: Well, there's an easier, more artificial way to get it done.
- 2:08Speaker 5: They say you need to associate a certain space with sleep.
- 2:12Speaker 5: So if you have like a chair, you could go
- 2:13Speaker 5: and sit there and that.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Could be your sleeping chair. You're a big space guy.
- 2:17Speaker 3: You're a big.
- 2:17Speaker 5: Space, outer space.
- 2:18Speaker 3: No, we're not going there again. You're a big, this
- 2:21Speaker 3: is a workspace, this is the living.
- 2:22Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:23Speaker 3: We've spoken about this before. Definitely. Definitely. Massively.
- 2:26Speaker 7: Why?
- 2:27Speaker 4: Why? I don't know.
- 2:28Speaker 5: I think it just makes a huge difference.
- 2:30Speaker 4: Okay.
- 2:30Speaker 5: I think I struggle to encroach on different spaces. If
- 2:34Speaker 5: something feels like a recreational space or a relaxation space,
- 2:37Speaker 5: I find it hard to do work properly in it.
- 2:38Speaker 5: I need to be somewhere.
- 2:39Speaker 3: So it's about productivity.
- 2:40Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:41Speaker 5: Fair enough. And even clothing. I know that sounds ridiculous,
- 2:43Speaker 5: but sometimes I struggle. If I'm in certain clothes, I
- 2:46Speaker 5: struggle to do certain things. Like if I'm in track
- 2:48Speaker 5: suits or whatever, I struggle to have the mental kind
- 2:52Speaker 5: of astuteness or the mental focus.
- 2:55Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:55Speaker 3: That's fair enough.
- 2:56Speaker 5: Sammy, what about this ambulance volunteer in Pinaroo?
- 3:01Speaker 3: I've read about this somewhere online a couple of days ago.
- 3:03Speaker 3: Now it's popped up on the advertiser. So, but what...
- 3:08Speaker 3: Long story short, he's lost his job over a vegan meal.
- 3:10Speaker 5: Well, it's not a job. He's just a volunteer.
- 3:12Speaker 3: He's volunteered, yep.
- 3:13Speaker 1: You're right, though.
- 3:13Speaker 5: But essentially, 70-year-old Rob Berlin has been stood down by S.A.A.S.
- 3:20Speaker 5: amid several allegations, including a dispute involving a vegan meal,
- 3:24Speaker 5: which I thought was interesting, given I work with a vegan, too.
- 3:28Speaker 5: He denies that, though.
- 3:29Speaker 3: He's not biting anymore. I just can't be bothered.
- 3:32Speaker 5: I feel like calling my friend Rob here and saying, look,
- 3:35Speaker 5: I know what it's like to deal with him. The
- 3:41Speaker 5: extraordinary part of all of this, and for those that
- 3:44Speaker 5: have read the front page of the advertiser this morning,
- 3:47Speaker 5: they will know this, all 12 Pinaroo Ambulance volunteers have
- 3:52Speaker 5: reportedly resigned in solidarity. So everyone's kind of, not kind of,
- 3:57Speaker 5: everyone is standing behind him. He's been accused of a
- 4:02Speaker 5: few things like smashing a roller door at the ambulance
- 4:06Speaker 5: headquarters and trying to scare someone, I believe. He's denied
- 4:09Speaker 5: the vegan thing, not being able to offer a vegan
- 4:11Speaker 5: meal to a colleague, and there's a few minor things. Volunteers, Sammy, volunteers,
- 4:17Speaker 5: off the back of this.
- 4:18Speaker 3: We have plenty of them.
- 4:19Speaker 5: Who's volunteered before and what was your experience like?
- 4:23Speaker 3: I was coaching basketball at my local club. for a
- 4:27Speaker 3: couple of years, so I was playing, but I was
- 4:29Speaker 3: also coaching younger grades.
- 4:31Speaker 5: Nice. Volunteering, no payment?
- 4:33Speaker 3: Yeah, no payment, no payment. Under 16s, I was coaching
- 4:36Speaker 3: the Div 1 side, so that was all I've really
- 4:41Speaker 3: done volunteer-wise. What about you?
- 4:43Speaker 5: How was that experience?
- 4:45Speaker 3: I mean, it was always on the results, wasn't it?
- 4:48Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 4:48Speaker 3: In that sort of volunteering space. We were up and down,
- 4:51Speaker 3: but it was a good experience for a couple of years.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Yep.
- 4:54Speaker 5: Nice. I just wonder, off the back of that, if
- 4:56Speaker 5: any of our listeners have a story around volunteering. Now,
- 5:00Speaker 5: we've got plenty of people who do a power of
- 5:03Speaker 5: work via op shops and secondhand shops, raising money for
- 5:06Speaker 5: some wonderful charities, of course. I wonder if we have
- 5:10Speaker 5: anyone that's helping in the gardening space or whatever it is.
- 5:14Speaker 5: But a lot of people... I think are commenting on
- 5:17Speaker 5: this yarn saying it's getting too hard to volunteer in
- 5:20Speaker 5: Australia and bureaucracy is destroying the volunteer. That's a question.
- 5:25Speaker 5: And whether that's right or not, I'd be really interested
- 5:28Speaker 5: to hear from our listeners.
- 5:29Speaker 3: We've got a Colac Port Adelaide voucher worth $ 50 to
- 5:31Speaker 3: give away this morning to a caller if you wanted
- 5:33Speaker 3: to jump in on that.
- 5:34Speaker 8: Do we?
- 5:35Speaker 3: Yeah, we do. Have you volunteered, did you say? I
- 5:39Speaker 3: probably would have had the time.
- 5:40Speaker 5: Well, no, I've done some volunteering, but whether you call
- 5:44Speaker 5: it volunteering or not, because when you play AFL, you
- 5:46Speaker 5: go and do things in the community, which is great,
- 5:49Speaker 5: but hang on, it's part of your gig a little bit.
- 5:53Speaker 5: So I think you'd be a little bit cheeky in
- 5:55Speaker 5: calling it volunteering. You still paid a salary for 365 days.
- 5:59Speaker 5: So the answer is, is I probably haven't done anything
- 6:02Speaker 5: that meaningful in terms of volunteering my time or services
- 6:05Speaker 5: to other people. So Wow, isn't that a bit of
- 6:07Speaker 5: a reminder to go and do something useful with your life?
- 6:10Speaker 3: So jump on the phones, 822-300-00, 044-808-1395. A couple of
- 6:15Speaker 3: quick texts as well coming in. Be careful around Forreston Road, Norsworthy.
- 6:21Speaker 3: Or is that supposed to be Roseworthy? Norsworthy? Not sure.
- 6:24Speaker 3: Intersection of Forreston. Mother Koala has somewhere to be walking
- 6:28Speaker 3: around all over the road. Look at that.
- 6:30Speaker 5: There's a little koala.
- 6:31Speaker 3: With a little baby on the back. Also, Peter, good morning,
- 6:35Speaker 3: Sam and Nettie. All roads lead to Cafe Palazzano. How
- 6:38Speaker 3: do you say that?
- 6:40Speaker 5: Palazzoni.
- 6:40Speaker 3: There we go. In North Adelaide. For a special tribute
- 6:43Speaker 3: to Peter Godfrey, Father Joan and I will be singing
- 6:45Speaker 3: Don't Go Breaking My Heart, 10am today to noon. Yes,
- 6:49Speaker 3: we heard the news yesterday that long time's mid-dawn announcer
- 6:53Speaker 3: Peter Godfrey passed away.
- 6:54Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 6:56Speaker 3: A lot of people, and it was probably people, because
- 6:59Speaker 3: this would have been part of his old show back
- 7:00Speaker 3: in the day. He would have gone through until 5.30,
- 7:02Speaker 3: 6 o'clock. So if anyone's got any Peter Godfrey memories,
- 7:05Speaker 3: feel free to jump on the line and let us
- 7:07Speaker 3: know as well. 8223 0000. But for now, let's head
- 7:10Speaker 3: out to Bergenhead. Frank, good morning.
- 7:12Speaker 2: Good morning, guys. In relation to volunteering, I did three
- 7:16Speaker 2: years of volunteering work in St. Markwood Hospital at Semaphore Park. Now,
- 7:23Speaker 2: my job was to go around and communicate with people
- 7:27Speaker 2: all the time. lovely clients in there who, some were lonely,
- 7:31Speaker 2: some never had visitors, some had family, some didn't. But
- 7:35Speaker 2: my job was to do that. And I communicated with
- 7:38Speaker 2: so many different people over a period of three years.
- 7:42Speaker 2: And it was about three days a week. And you
- 7:45Speaker 2: would be amazed at the different stories people would tell you.
- 7:49Speaker 2: I learned a lot of things from talking to people
- 7:53Speaker 2: with all sorts of disabilities. And it's amazing what you learned.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Every day, and I said to myself, if I can
- 8:02Speaker 2: walk out of that place each day putting a smile
- 8:06Speaker 2: on someone's face, it made my day, buddy. And the
- 8:12Speaker 2: people were lovely to talk to. With all sorts of
- 8:16Speaker 2: stories they used to share, it was a pleasure doing
- 8:19Speaker 2: that job. I was the former... support worker in aged care,
- 8:23Speaker 2: and I've retired at 70. And it was just a
- 8:26Speaker 2: great time for me, mate. You're amazed at what stories
- 8:29Speaker 2: you hear from people. And it helped them because they're communicating.
- 8:33Speaker 2: I mean, I can talk about just about anything under
- 8:36Speaker 2: the sun. I've got the gift of the gab, as.
- 8:40Speaker 4: The saying goes.
- 8:41Speaker 2: But I thought I'd share that with you, buddies.
- 8:43Speaker 3: Frank, have you got one story that stuck with you?
- 8:47Speaker 2: Oh, look, I'm just trying to.
- 8:52Speaker 2: Just trying to think. But, okay, look, some of the
- 8:55Speaker 2: people that were in there, you'd be amazed at what
- 9:00Speaker 2: kind of people were in there that you used to
- 9:03Speaker 2: talk to. Teachers, lawyers, even a scientist. Amazing, but I
- 9:11Speaker 2: can't think of it at the moment, mate. I'd have
- 9:13Speaker 2: to really rack my brain.
- 9:14Speaker 8: Yeah, mate.
- 9:15Speaker 2: I thought I'd share that with you, mate.
- 9:17Speaker 3: All good, Frank. Thank you for that.
- 9:18Speaker 5: Thank you, Frank. What a beautiful story, and good on you.
- 9:22Speaker 5: A really positive recollection of volunteering, Sammy, wasn't it? Michael
- 9:25Speaker 5: on the text line, though, probably shares a slightly different
- 9:30Speaker 5: view just on the outlook of what volunteering may look like.
- 9:35Speaker 5: Surf lifesaving beach patrols start this weekend. Membership and insurance
- 9:39Speaker 5: has gone up. It's expensive to volunteer, says Michael.
- 9:45Speaker 3: When you think about it, there are situations and you've
- 9:50Speaker 3: got to get checks and clearances for volunteering and maybe
- 9:53Speaker 3: who you're volunteering for won't cover those costs. So it
- 9:55Speaker 3: can be, I guess, a bit expensive to at least
- 9:57Speaker 3: get going in a volunteering space.
- 9:59Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 10:01Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 10:01Speaker 3: Luke in Queenstown. Hey, guys, I volunteered at a local
- 10:03Speaker 3: community radio station cleaning. Cheers, Luke. Thank you for that, Luke.
- 10:07Speaker 5: Luke, that's great. You should come in here, Luke, and
- 10:10Speaker 5: volunteer and be on the airwaves more so. come and
- 10:14Speaker 5: put a set of cans on your ears and come
- 10:16Speaker 5: and talk some dribble. That's all we do.
- 10:19Speaker 3: Have you got a veggie patch? Have you got any
- 10:21Speaker 3: fruit trees, Neddy? I feel like you would. I mean,
- 10:25Speaker 3: you're in the process of moving right now, but you're
- 10:27Speaker 3: a man of the country. You love the earth. You're
- 10:30Speaker 3: always on the land.
- 10:32Speaker 5: Sammy, I do love the earth. So you're right. You're right, Sammy.
- 10:37Speaker 3: I'm moving.
- 10:38Speaker 5: I'm moving to a bit more land.
- 10:40Speaker 3: So you might have a veggie patch? You might.
- 10:42Speaker 5: Sammy, it's got a massive veggie patch already. The infrastructure
- 10:45Speaker 5: is there and I want to plant things in it.
- 10:47Speaker 4: Okay.
- 10:47Speaker 3: I asked the question because... Interesting study came out yesterday
- 10:52Speaker 3: about what is in some of our fruit and veg.
- 10:55Speaker 3: Here is 7 News.
- 10:55Speaker 7: Beer coals and woolies around the country, including here in Adelaide,
- 10:59Speaker 7: have been tested for pesticides and the results are enough
- 11:03Speaker 7: to make you think twice at the checkout. Eleanor Davis
- 11:06Speaker 7: from Pesticides Action Australia.
- 11:08Speaker 9: So we purchased 13 different types of fruit and veg,
- 11:13Speaker 9: your typical Aussie basket really, of strawberries, blueberries, cucumber, grapes, capers, capsicum, potato, lettuce, broccoli, apple,
- 11:22Speaker 9: rock melon, avocados, and bananas. So a broad scope of
- 11:26Speaker 9: 13 different types.
- 11:29Speaker 7: And 44% of the samples carried one or more PFAS chemicals,
- 11:35Speaker 7: which are also known as forever chemicals. What fruits and
- 11:40Speaker 7: vegetables contained these?
- 11:42Speaker 9: These were found across a really wide range of those.
- 11:46Speaker 9: So strawberries, blueberries, cucumber, grapes, capsicum, potato, lettuce, broccoli and apples.
- 11:52Speaker 9: So this really isn't about.
- 11:54Speaker 1: A particular plant.
- 11:56Speaker 9: Particular punnet here or there or a particular crop.
- 12:00Speaker 1: This was across the range.
- 12:02Speaker 3: So they surveyed 13 fruit and veg items that are
- 12:05Speaker 3: in a typical Adelaide, South Australian basket. 44% of them
- 12:10Speaker 3: had traces of forever chemicals in them.
- 12:12Speaker 4: Wow.
- 12:13Speaker 3: So who's growing their own? Who's got a nice little
- 12:16Speaker 3: market garden out the back? My uncle in Seton, he's
- 12:18Speaker 3: got these rower planters. His backyard is entirely a veggie patch.
- 12:23Speaker 3: And he'll just pop around every now and again with
- 12:25Speaker 3: a bag of, I don't know, here's some mangoes or
- 12:27Speaker 3: here's some cucumbers or here's some strawberries.
- 12:29Speaker 5: He's growing mangoes.
- 12:30Speaker 3: Not mangoes, sorry. Apricots. He's got an apricot tree.
- 12:33Speaker 5: I was going to say, wow, I didn't realise the
- 12:35Speaker 5: climate had become tropical in Seton.
- 12:37Speaker 3: But, yeah, he's got a massive amount of fruit. I
- 12:40Speaker 3: remember back in my grandparents lived in Flinders Park. They
- 12:43Speaker 3: had a couple of lemon tree. It was a grapefruit tree.
- 12:46Speaker 3: All this fruit and veg that you'd have in the backyard.
- 12:48Speaker 3: But now, I guess, with... I don't want to say overpopulation,
- 12:53Speaker 3: but the fact that we don't have enough housing and
- 12:54Speaker 3: we're building houses on big of land.
- 12:56Speaker 5: Small land allotments, yeah.
- 12:58Speaker 3: And there's not enough room for said veggie patches. I
- 13:01Speaker 3: wonder if anyone's still growing their own fruit and veg.
- 13:03Speaker 5: Who's growing their own fruit and veg, Sammy? That's a
- 13:06Speaker 5: great question. 8223 0000. How are they doing it? And
- 13:10Speaker 5: what do they get out of it?
- 13:11Speaker 2: Hmm.
- 13:12Speaker 5: Alternatively, too, if you're not, what do you think the
- 13:14Speaker 5: quality of fruit and veg is like that you're purchasing
- 13:17Speaker 5: at the moment? Where's Andrew?
- 13:18Speaker 4: I know.
- 13:19Speaker 5: From our produce market.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Where's our produce market correspondent? Andrew, if you're listening. I
- 13:23Speaker 3: haven't heard from you for.
- 13:23Speaker 4: A few days.
- 13:24Speaker 9: Seriously.
- 13:24Speaker 5: And also a shout out to Mark from Toyota. I
- 13:26Speaker 5: was in at Toyota head office yesterday. Big listener.
- 13:29Speaker 8: Really?
- 13:30Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 13:31Speaker 3: Now, that is a brand we could very much associate
- 13:34Speaker 3: here on early breakfast if they wanted to jump on board.
- 13:37Speaker 5: One of the chaps who's in the Toyota office there
- 13:39Speaker 5: making that business move around, Mark, is a listener. Good
- 13:42Speaker 5: morning to you, mate. Thanks for being a high-fiver. Another high-fiver,
- 13:46Speaker 5: Craig at Ingle Farm. Morning, Craig.
- 13:49Speaker 6: Good morning, Sam and Ned. How are we this morning?
- 13:52Speaker 5: Very well, mate.
- 13:53Speaker 6: Hey, yeah, very passionate subject for me, so growing your
- 13:57Speaker 6: own food.
- 13:57Speaker 4: So.
- 13:59Speaker 6: I learned off my old man, so I've been growing
- 14:01Speaker 6: since I was a teenager, but I was my old
- 14:03Speaker 6: man's carer here for seven years. He moved in with me,
- 14:07Speaker 6: and during COVID, we ramped up big time. So I've
- 14:10Speaker 6: got 30 raised beds, 13 fruit trees in my suburban backyard,
- 14:17Speaker 6: and I'm that passionate about it, and I've learned a lot.
- 14:20Speaker 6: It's all trial and error. All full organic, and I've
- 14:24Speaker 6: got 50,000 litres worth of rainwater in my suburban backyard
- 14:27Speaker 6: as well. I won't use tap water. If I run
- 14:29Speaker 6: out of rainwater, I'll let them die because the forever
- 14:32Speaker 6: chemicals are in the tap water too. But yeah, in
- 14:37Speaker 6: the end, I grow about 60% of what I eat.
- 14:40Speaker 6: And you know the best thing, boys, like eating off
- 14:43Speaker 6: the vine. You go out there and you chew something,
- 14:46Speaker 6: a pea or a pea pod or asparagus crown. off
- 14:51Speaker 6: the vine, and it is groundbreaking. It's just, oh, my God,
- 14:55Speaker 6: it moves you so much.
- 14:57Speaker 3: Is it just more flavorful?
- 14:59Speaker 4: Oh, flavorful.
- 15:01Speaker 5: And you know what, Sam?
- 15:02Speaker 6: Your body knows. You can feel the goodness and the
- 15:05Speaker 6: nutrition going into you. So my philosophy is I won't–
- 15:10Speaker 6: if I'm going to consume something like a meal when
- 15:12Speaker 6: I'm making a salad or veggies– I'll pick it no
- 15:17Speaker 6: more than 30 minutes before I consume it. So it's
- 15:19Speaker 6: still alive. You're still getting that full 100% goodness out
- 15:22Speaker 6: of it. So, yeah, just, I mean, I've always done
- 15:26Speaker 6: social media posts just to try to inspire people. But
- 15:29Speaker 6: recently on Father's Day in honour of my dad, I've
- 15:32Speaker 6: done my first YouTube show called Sustainable Suburbia. That's the
- 15:36Speaker 6: name of my channel. So I've done three episodes so
- 15:39Speaker 6: far and how to. And, yeah, like I said, it's
- 15:43Speaker 6: all been trial and error for me and loaning off
- 15:46Speaker 6: my dad and his dad. He loans off his dad.
- 15:48Speaker 6: His dad was a farmer. So I'm very passionate about it,
- 15:52Speaker 6: very passionate. So, yeah.
- 15:55Speaker 3: What's the trickiest veg or fruit to grow? What's one
- 15:59Speaker 3: that you've had the most trouble with?
- 16:01Speaker 4: Well, you know what?
- 16:02Speaker 6: If I was going to say don't get something with
- 16:06Speaker 6: fruit trees, don't get stone fruit because stone fruit, it all–
- 16:10Speaker 6: It's already at the same time, so it's a pain.
- 16:12Speaker 4: In the bum.
- 16:12Speaker 6: You've got to preserve it. The rats, the birds want it.
- 16:15Speaker 6: You've got to net it. You know, if I was
- 16:17Speaker 6: to say to get a fruit tree, get citrus. And
- 16:19Speaker 6: you know what? The healthiest one that could help you
- 16:22Speaker 6: is a lemon tree because I have lemon in all
- 16:24Speaker 6: my water. Lemon adjusts our pH, makes our pH in
- 16:29Speaker 6: our body more alkaline because we've got a very acidic plant.
- 16:32Speaker 6: Bodies from eating processed food and takeaway and everything. So
- 16:36Speaker 6: a lemon tree, and I've got a Eureka, and I
- 16:39Speaker 6: get lemons off it 10 months of the year.
- 16:42Speaker 4: I freeze.
- 16:43Speaker 6: I'm just freezing them now because during December and January,
- 16:47Speaker 6: it goes barren, so I'll have them frozen. So I
- 16:50Speaker 6: still don't have to buy lemons. And the quality of
- 16:54Speaker 6: the produce is just unreal. You know, even the gills,
- 16:57Speaker 6: the organic eggs I grow, I've started selling a dozen
- 17:01Speaker 6: eggs a week at work just to try to supplement.
- 17:05Speaker 6: Because with my gardening, I try to make it cost neutral.
- 17:07Speaker 6: So I make all my own compost. Mate, I could
- 17:11Speaker 6: go into it for hours. But yeah, just love it.
- 17:13Speaker 6: Absolutely passionate about it.
- 17:14Speaker 3: Very passionate about it. Good on you, Craig. Thank you
- 17:16Speaker 3: for the call.
- 17:16Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 17:17Speaker 4: Thanks, boys.
- 17:18Speaker 6: Have a good day.
- 17:18Speaker 3: Happy gardening, Craig. Well done. A couple of things we're
- 17:21Speaker 3: talking about this morning. 21 after 5, we do need
- 17:23Speaker 3: to get to a break, but who's growing their own
- 17:25Speaker 3: fruit and veg? We'd love to hear from you. And volunteering,
- 17:28Speaker 3: what's going on with you? 8223 0000 044808 1395. Colac
- 17:34Speaker 3: Port Adelaide voucher to give away before 6 o'clock. Back
- 17:36Speaker 3: in a moment.
- 17:38Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto. 5AA Early Breakfast.
- 17:42Speaker 3: 25 after 5 on the text line. Andrew. Morning, Ned
- 17:51Speaker 3: and Sam. Best thing in Adelaide is we live in
- 17:53Speaker 3: the middle of a fruit bowl. Virginia, Anglevale, Riverland, Adelaide Hills,
- 17:57Speaker 3: all grow amazing fresh produce, but some chemicals are needed
- 18:01Speaker 3: to make sure we have enough supply. All fruit and
- 18:04Speaker 3: veg should be washed. Basically, if you're eating the skin
- 18:06Speaker 3: of the produce, that's what should be washed, apples, berries.
- 18:10Speaker 3: But bananas and oranges, you don't. We'll drip into some
- 18:14Speaker 3: new season strawberries next week. And, of course, this is
- 18:16Speaker 3: Andrew from the SA Produce Market. Looking forward to seeing
- 18:20Speaker 3: you at the SA Produce Market for an OB at
- 18:22Speaker 3: some stage. Andrew, make it happen. We'll be there.
- 18:24Speaker 5: Andrew, you're a superstar. We love you with our whole heart.
- 18:28Speaker 5: Remember those mangoes you dropped in.
- 18:30Speaker 8: Oh.
- 18:30Speaker 3: I tell you what, I met Andrew a couple of
- 18:33Speaker 3: weeks ago. I was the most popular person in this
- 18:35Speaker 3: station with a box of mangoes. No, seriously. Everyone wanted
- 18:37Speaker 3: a bit of them.
- 18:37Speaker 5: I had mango dripping all over my face. Tommy Redden
- 18:42Speaker 5: will be in, won't he?
- 18:43Speaker 10: Yes.
- 18:43Speaker 9: 5.40.
- 18:43Speaker 5: Looking forward to that. He'll give us a bit of
- 18:46Speaker 5: a sporting update.
- 18:47Speaker 3: Simmo as well. Morning, lads. Simmo from Cam Man 2.
- 18:50Speaker 3: We have a food forest including bananas and avos, hundreds
- 18:54Speaker 3: of edible plants. Thank you, Simmo. Ned, have you ever
- 18:58Speaker 3: had a run-in with bad neighbours?
- 19:01Speaker 6: No.
- 19:02Speaker 3: Lucky.
- 19:02Speaker 5: Not particularly.
- 19:03Speaker 9: No.
- 19:04Speaker 3: I saw this online last night, and there's a lot
- 19:09Speaker 3: of these community message boards around on Facebook for the
- 19:12Speaker 3: community to get together. It's a real 2026 version of
- 19:16Speaker 3: coming together, but it's on social media. And it read...
- 19:19Speaker 3: This is the Northern Suburbs Community Notice. Do people seriously
- 19:22Speaker 3: have no common sense, courtesy or respect? I'm sorry, but
- 19:26Speaker 3: every day this week, someone is blasting their music for
- 19:29Speaker 3: all to hear in the area, singing or banging on drums.
- 19:32Speaker 3: It's 10pm. This goes till midnight. Most of us have
- 19:35Speaker 3: to get up early for work in the morning. This
- 19:37Speaker 3: is the Mawson Lakes area. Bad neighbours. Have you ever
- 19:41Speaker 3: had a running with a bad neighbour? How have you
- 19:43Speaker 3: approached it? Have you done the whole, maybe an anonymous
- 19:47Speaker 3: letter in the letterbox? Have you had the gumption to
- 19:49Speaker 3: knock on the door? on the door and ask what
- 19:50Speaker 3: the hell's going on? Or have you called the cops?
- 19:55Speaker 3: And how would you approach it?
- 19:56Speaker 5: This is exciting, Sammy. 8223 0000. Who's had some bad
- 20:02Speaker 5: neighbour stories? I reckon there'd be some crackers out there.
- 20:04Speaker 5: I say crackers in terms of entertainment, not living through it.
- 20:09Speaker 5: Where do you stand on noise? You can play the drums,
- 20:13Speaker 5: but not till 6pm, 7pm. Mowing the lawns? At what
- 20:17Speaker 5: time can you mow the lawns?
- 20:19Speaker 3: Is it weekends at 9pm or is it 10pm?
- 20:22Speaker 5: 8-double-2-3-double-0-double-0. Seriously, what time can you kickstart the lawnmower and
- 20:28Speaker 5: get things cranking on your nature strip? 6 a.m. on
- 20:31Speaker 5: a Sunday?
- 20:32Speaker 9: No.
- 20:32Speaker 3: Way too early. You would be enemy number one.
- 20:36Speaker 1: In your summer.
- 20:37Speaker 8: 9 a.m.
- 20:37Speaker 5: On a Sunday?
- 20:38Speaker 6: Fine.
- 20:39Speaker 3: That's play on.
- 20:40Speaker 5: Okay.
- 20:40Speaker 3: 10 on a Sunday.
- 20:43Speaker 5: No, 9.
- 20:43Speaker 3: 9 on a Saturday, 10 on a Sunday.
- 20:45Speaker 5: No, 9 is fine. Okay. If you're still in bed
- 20:47Speaker 5: at 9 o'clock, that's on you. On a Sunday? Absolutely.
- 20:51Speaker 3: Nah, come on.
- 20:52Speaker 5: Fire it up at 9. I think 8's still touch
- 20:54Speaker 5: and go. 7's probably getting a little early, particularly on
- 20:57Speaker 5: a Sunday. 7 is, I think 8's way too early. 9,
- 20:59Speaker 5: I think 9's a sweet spot. 8223 0000, when can
- 21:04Speaker 5: you start your lawnmower? Is 6pm with daylight savings?
- 21:09Speaker 3: Oh, that's fair play.
- 21:09Speaker 5: That's fair play, isn't it?
- 21:11Speaker 3: That is 100. You could go to about 8 o'clock
- 21:12Speaker 3: on daylight saving. 8 p.m.? As long as it's off
- 21:15Speaker 3: by about 8, yeah.
- 21:16Speaker 5: Yeah, right. So you're more open to noise at night
- 21:19Speaker 5: than you are in the morning.
- 21:20Speaker 3: Yeah, of course. Yes, people do go to bed early. Yes,
- 21:25Speaker 3: I am one of them.
- 21:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:26Speaker 3: But you can run it a bit late during daylight saving.
- 21:30Speaker 5: Going back to the Bad Neighbours yarn off the back
- 21:32Speaker 5: of that Mawson Lakes report, have you had any interactions
- 21:36Speaker 5: with Bad Neighbours?
- 21:38Speaker 3: Bad Neighbours... It's probably a bit of a stretch, but
- 21:41Speaker 3: we've had disruptive neighbours. Back when I lived at home
- 21:44Speaker 3: in Hendon, there was one family that was next door,
- 21:50Speaker 3: and let's just say their two-, three-year-old child could not
- 21:54Speaker 3: be controlled.
- 21:54Speaker 4: Oh, no. At all.
- 21:56Speaker 3: What do you mean? Whoa. The Barneys that would come
- 21:59Speaker 3: across the fence. just trying to handle this three-year-old running
- 22:04Speaker 3: amok handle it he'd always want to get his gear
- 22:06Speaker 3: off snake he'd always want to get his gear off
- 22:08Speaker 3: screaming and yelling and oh i remember there was one
- 22:11Speaker 3: time where i think the grandmother was over trying to
- 22:15Speaker 3: oh dear a babysit look after and she was doing
- 22:18Speaker 3: some mopping and he's kicked over the bucket of mop
- 22:21Speaker 3: water it's gone everywhere and uncontrollable at stages.
- 22:25Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 22:26Speaker 3: There's also stories of dogs who are too loud. How
- 22:29Speaker 3: do you handle a dog that doesn't stop barking all
- 22:32Speaker 3: hours of the day?
- 22:33Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 22:34Speaker 3: It's tricky.
- 22:35Speaker 5: I've never understood that with the dog thing. It's like,
- 22:38Speaker 5: if your dog's going to do that, the dog's got
- 22:40Speaker 5: to go. Simple. Or you teach your dog not to
- 22:42Speaker 5: do that. Dogs can be taught anything. Dogs are so smart.
- 22:45Speaker 5: I mean, look at Mandy and the Blue Brothers. She's
- 22:47Speaker 5: got two blue heelers who text into the show. Like-
- 22:51Speaker 5: If they can text in and have their own name
- 22:53Speaker 5: on the text line, you can teach a dog not
- 22:54Speaker 5: to bark, I think. Mandy, are your dogs barking or
- 22:58Speaker 5: are they pretty good, the Blue Brothers? I think they're
- 23:00Speaker 5: pretty well behaved, I'd say.
- 23:01Speaker 3: Oh, I think so. If Mandy's up and about this hour,
- 23:04Speaker 3: you're not going to be up and about because your
- 23:05Speaker 3: dogs are barking. That's going to cause way too much trouble.
- 23:07Speaker 3: So if you've got any bad neighbour stories or dogs
- 23:09Speaker 3: barking in the area, how have you handled it? 8223 0000.
- 23:13Speaker 3: Places in and around Adelaide that are known by something
- 23:17Speaker 3: or a reason.
- 23:18Speaker 10: Yes.
- 23:20Speaker 3: Or, on the contrary, what should your suburb or Adelaide
- 23:24Speaker 3: be known for a reason? This comes off a bit
- 23:25Speaker 3: of a dark story because we know the story behind Snowtown.
- 23:29Speaker 3: They cannot get away from what happened there.
- 23:31Speaker 11: A small, sleepy town with a population of just over 400.
- 23:36Speaker 11: But 27 years ago, Snowtown Forever became tied with one
- 23:40Speaker 11: of the most heinous crimes in Australian history.
- 23:43Speaker 5: Bodies in barrels.
- 23:44Speaker 4: Everybody says bodies in barrels.
- 23:46Speaker 10: That's it.
- 23:47Speaker 1: That's what we're known for, really.
- 23:48Speaker 11: Driving past this former bank on Railway Terrace now, it's
- 23:52Speaker 11: hard to comprehend the bodies of eight people were found
- 23:56Speaker 11: stuffed inside barrels. But for the current owners, they say
- 24:00Speaker 11: it's a part of the town's history that can't be forgotten.
- 24:03Speaker 3: And this is a crime scene.
- 24:06Speaker 4: So that's why people are intrigued.
- 24:08Speaker 3: So Snowtown, audio there, thanks to Nine News, is always
- 24:10Speaker 3: going to be synonymous with bodies in the barrels. I
- 24:12Speaker 3: know in the reporting of the cases lately, especially with
- 24:16Speaker 3: the accused and the convicted people who were part of
- 24:20Speaker 3: that case have been coming up for parole, the language
- 24:23Speaker 3: around reporting on it has been more so the bodies
- 24:27Speaker 3: in the barrels case, and you leave Snowtown off of
- 24:30Speaker 3: the reporting of it, because I've been through enough.
- 24:33Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:33Speaker 3: But A place in and around Adelaide or Australia, what's
- 24:37Speaker 3: something that's known about your area or should be known
- 24:40Speaker 3: about your area?
- 24:42Speaker 5: That's unfair on Snowtown.
- 24:44Speaker 6: 100%.
- 24:44Speaker 3: They did nothing wrong.
- 24:45Speaker 5: And there's a fellow who's got the service station there
- 24:48Speaker 5: at Snowtown doing wonderful curries.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Oh.
- 24:52Speaker 3: Well, there you go. That's what Snowtown should be known for.
- 24:54Speaker 3: Their curry's at the server.
- 24:56Speaker 5: I think of Snowtown as butter chicken before barrels.
- 24:58Speaker 10: Really?
- 24:59Speaker 5: No, seriously. The curry's at Snowtown.
- 25:01Speaker 9: 8223 0000.
- 25:01Speaker 5: Has anyone had a curry going through Snowtown? Some of
- 25:05Speaker 5: our truckies, I bet you they have. It's a great
- 25:08Speaker 5: service station. We could do that, actually, too. Best service stations.
- 25:10Speaker 3: You love your... What? I forget what they're called.
- 25:13Speaker 5: Baymarie.
- 25:13Speaker 3: Baymarie. You love a servo baymarie. I'm more of a
- 25:16Speaker 3: bakery guy on a road trip. You love a servo baymarie.
- 25:19Speaker 5: Constantly eating from service stations. If they go to the
- 25:21Speaker 5: effort of making homemade food, it is certainly appreciated. Snowtown
- 25:25Speaker 5: is one of those places. With the body in the
- 25:27Speaker 5: barrel thing, I mean, no one associates Richmond in Melbourne
- 25:31Speaker 5: with body in the barrel. You know, Dennis Allen, the
- 25:35Speaker 5: son of, I think, Kath Pettingill, the grandmother of crime
- 25:38Speaker 5: in the 1980s during, you know, I think he chopped
- 25:41Speaker 5: someone up and put them in a barrel in Richmond.
- 25:43Speaker 6: Really?
- 25:44Speaker 3: I didn't know that.
- 25:45Speaker 5: There was a Melbourne underworld back then. then, buddy.
- 25:47Speaker 3: I know there was a Melbourne Underworld, but I didn't
- 25:48Speaker 3: realise it was such a case like a web known here.
- 25:52Speaker 5: Dennis Allen, who was the other one? Victor Price. There
- 25:55Speaker 5: was others in that Melbourne Underworld scene, all criminals. Mark
- 25:59Speaker 5: from Finden.
- 26:00Speaker 3: Toot toot.
- 26:00Speaker 2: Morning.
- 26:02Speaker 5: I'm in the car this time.
- 26:04Speaker 1: See you tonight.
- 26:06Speaker 5: Yeah, that horn didn't give us as much, Mark. Not
- 26:10Speaker 5: the kills, eh? Anyway, that's a different story. No, the
- 26:14Speaker 5: Snowtown BP, mate, that's really nice.
- 26:18Speaker 4: Hey. The Rogan Josh and the Butter Chicken.
- 26:23Speaker 5: Cracking curries there, Mark. What do you reckon the best
- 26:26Speaker 5: curry at a service station is across the state?
- 26:31Speaker 4: Well, they all make a difference.
- 26:33Speaker 2: The Butter Chicken, mate, the Rogan Josh, some people make
- 26:36Speaker 2: it so bloody hot it'll burn.
- 26:38Speaker 1: The hairs off your head.
- 26:39Speaker 5: No, but what's Servo, though?
- 26:40Speaker 4: Oh, what's Servo?
- 26:42Speaker 2: Hmm.
- 26:44Speaker 5: I reckon Pie Face have some of the worst pies.
- 26:46Speaker 4: In human history, Mark. Of course.
- 26:48Speaker 5: We love Balfour.
- 26:49Speaker 3: Honestly, a Pie Face pie belongs on the ground.
- 27:13Speaker 2: That's why you only buy a sandwich from.
- 27:15Speaker 4: Them, mate.
- 27:17Speaker 3: Roger. Well done, Mark. Thank you. Love you, Mark. Good morning.
- 27:21Speaker 4: About the Truro burgers, there was quite a few up there.
- 27:24Speaker 5: Truro, yeah.
- 27:26Speaker 10: There were.
- 27:27Speaker 6: And the best pies on the run.
- 27:31Speaker 3: On the run pie?
- 27:31Speaker 5: Yeah, I had one the other day. You like those, Marge?
- 27:34Speaker 6: Really nice, and you get a hot dog for $ 3.
- 27:39Speaker 5: Oh, jeez, that's a bargain. What pie do you go, Marge?
- 27:42Speaker 5: Is this the standard, or? They're a bit smaller.
- 27:46Speaker 6: They've got different shaped ones.
- 27:52Speaker 5: Which one do you go? Which one do you choose?
- 27:54Speaker 3: Are you a standard meat pie, or are you doing
- 27:56Speaker 3: some chunky steak and mushroom, or what's going on?
- 27:58Speaker 4: Steak and mushroom.
- 28:00Speaker 3: Steak and mushroom.
- 28:01Speaker 5: Oh, steak and mushies, nice work.
- 28:03Speaker 3: And on Wednesdays, I think they're only $ 3. Oh, wow.
- 28:07Speaker 3: We missed the buy day.
- 28:10Speaker 4: Yeah, something like that.
- 28:12Speaker 5: Thank you, Marge.
- 28:13Speaker 9: Well done, Marge.
- 28:13Speaker 3: You're a ripper.
- 28:14Speaker 5: I had a big beef wellington the other night with
- 28:17Speaker 5: some mushrooms. It was absolutely delicious.
- 28:19Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
- 28:20Speaker 5: Only joking.
- 28:21Speaker 3: Good to see you still here. Mandy and the Blue
- 28:23Speaker 3: Brothers again. It is construction that causes trouble here. It's
- 28:26Speaker 3: meant to be 7 a.m. on weekdays, 9 on the weekends,
- 28:30Speaker 3: nothing on a public holiday, and they always try it, though.
- 28:33Speaker 3: The boys only bark. If there is something happening, like
- 28:36Speaker 3: someone arriving or something out of sorts, Mandy and the
- 28:39Speaker 3: Blue Brothers. And 015 on the text line, yes, Ned, Shell,
- 28:42Speaker 3: Augusta Highway, brilliant curry.
- 28:44Speaker 5: Yep, know exactly where you're talking. There's some good service
- 28:47Speaker 5: stations along our state with food. Would love to hear
- 28:51Speaker 5: those ones along with some of the great topics we've
- 28:53Speaker 5: covered already this morning.
- 28:54Speaker 3: Yes, of course. Colac Port Adelaide voucher worth $ 50 to
- 28:56Speaker 3: give away by 6 o'clock this morning, so you can
- 29:00Speaker 3: jump on the phones today. 8223 0000. We're talking about
- 29:06Speaker 3: volunteering at the top of the show. Hi, chaps. I
- 29:08Speaker 3: currently do three lots of volunteering. Cat cuddling at the
- 29:12Speaker 3: Animal Welfare League weekly, gardening at Cleland Wildlife Park fortnightly,
- 29:18Speaker 3: and playing piano at an aged care facility where my
- 29:21Speaker 3: dear mum spent the last 18 months of her life.
- 29:23Speaker 3: She was 105 when she passed away. I do that monthly.
- 29:27Speaker 3: All good. Also, rest in peace, Peter Godfrey. A cracking fella.
- 29:32Speaker 3: Thank you, Cathy. I like the idea of spending time
- 29:36Speaker 3: with older people.
- 29:37Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely. There's a lot of wisdom. to learn.
- 29:41Speaker 3: I don't have any grandparents left. I'd always go see.
- 29:44Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
- 29:44Speaker 3: Towards the end, it was my grandma, dad's mom. She
- 29:47Speaker 3: was 98, 99. I'd always try and see her weekly
- 29:50Speaker 3: when my mom and dad couldn't.
- 29:51Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 29:51Speaker 3: And you could just tell. It was something that she
- 29:54Speaker 3: looked forward to every week.
- 29:55Speaker 5: Yeah, that's great. I'm sure you look forward to it
- 29:58Speaker 5: as well. If you're just joining us, that's off the
- 30:00Speaker 5: back of the front page of the Advertiser this morning.
- 30:02Speaker 5: A 70-year-old volunteer ambulance stalwart with nearly 50 years' service,
- 30:07Speaker 5: Rob Berlin, has been stood down amid several allegations, including
- 30:12Speaker 5: a dispute involving a vegan meal, which, Sammy, you would
- 30:15Speaker 5: understand if you.
- 30:20Speaker 5: He denies that, by the way. He denies that he
- 30:21Speaker 5: couldn't offer a vegan option to that other volunteer and
- 30:25Speaker 5: that guest and a few other little bits and pieces.
- 30:27Speaker 5: But we're talking about volunteering, what people's experience is like
- 30:31Speaker 5: volunteering off the back of that story. Have you done it?
- 30:33Speaker 5: What did you like about it? Was it hard? Was
- 30:35Speaker 5: it expensive? Lots of good stories already. We'd appreciate your calls.
- 30:39Speaker 3: And a lot of good stories on one of Ned's
- 30:41Speaker 3: very favourite topics, where to grab a good feed on
- 30:43Speaker 3: the road. Rob in Clearview was in the lovely town
- 30:46Speaker 3: of Meadows the other day, grabbed a chilli beef pie
- 30:49Speaker 3: at Pick a Pie, was in pie heaven.
- 30:52Speaker 5: Now, that is a great bakery, Pick a Pie.
- 30:54Speaker 3: Never been.
- 30:55Speaker 4: Oh.
- 30:56Speaker 5: Oh, Sammy. Great bakery. As I've said a few times,
- 30:58Speaker 5: they've got an interesting line kind of situation. You move
- 31:02Speaker 5: in parallel with the service counter, if that makes sense.
- 31:05Speaker 5: So you're not lining up on the 90 degree angle.
- 31:07Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 31:08Speaker 5: You're actually moving with the counter, which I like the
- 31:10Speaker 5: flow of that.
- 31:11Speaker 3: Okay.
- 31:12Speaker 5: Good coffee there.
- 31:13Speaker 3: Adds to the customer experience.
- 31:14Speaker 5: Good atmosphere. I like Meadows, Rob.
- 31:16Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
- 31:16Speaker 5: Like it a lot.
- 31:17Speaker 3: Jeff in Glenelg. Good morning. Don't think Geoff's there. We
- 31:24Speaker 3: might take a quick break.
- 31:25Speaker 5: Is Geoff having a snooze then?
- 31:27Speaker 3: We'll take a quick break. 8223 0000. Keep the Coles coming.
- 31:30Speaker 3: Tommy Wren not far away as well.
- 31:33Speaker 1: Ned McHenry and Sam Datto.
- 31:35Speaker 5: 5AA Early Breakfast.
- 31:37Speaker 3: 18 minutes to 6. Going for a top of 28
- 31:46Speaker 3: degrees and sunny today across Adelaide. Currently 17.7 this morning in.
- 31:53Speaker 3: The CBD, but we've been talking about volunteering, and the
- 31:56Speaker 3: lead volunteer of the High Fivers would have to be
- 32:00Speaker 3: Sue from MyLaw. Sue, good morning.
- 32:01Speaker 8: Morning, guys. Yeah, I've only just woken up. I slept
- 32:04Speaker 8: in this morning.
- 32:05Speaker 3: Oh, daylight savings getting people.
- 32:08Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, normally it's big daylight.
- 32:11Speaker 4: Yep.
- 32:11Speaker 8: So, you know, that sort of knocks you around a bit.
- 32:15Speaker 5: Okay.
- 32:16Speaker 8: Yeah, but just before that, can I just say the
- 32:18Speaker 8: best pies in the hills?
- 32:20Speaker 3: Oh, go for it.
- 32:20Speaker 4: Whereabouts?
- 32:21Speaker 8: Oh, please.
- 32:21Speaker 3: It's got to be MyLaw.
- 32:22Speaker 5: Yeah, it is.
- 32:23Speaker 8: Go to the little deli in Mylor. They make their
- 32:28Speaker 8: own pies. They have the best of the hills. They
- 32:32Speaker 8: also make all their own cakes and buns, but you
- 32:34Speaker 8: should try their slow-cooked lamb pie or their duck or
- 32:40Speaker 8: the beef and shiraz. Oh, God, they're good. They're really
- 32:44Speaker 8: nice pies.
- 32:46Speaker 3: Well done, Sue.
- 32:47Speaker 8: High demand. Okay.
- 32:49Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 32:50Speaker 8: Yeah, just volunteering. I mean, I've been doing it for...
- 32:54Speaker 8: I've been volunteering for, I don't know, 45 years. It's something...
- 33:01Speaker 8: I mean, we're struggling to get volunteers at the moment.
- 33:05Speaker 8: Since COVID, the volunteer population's dropped off a bit and
- 33:11Speaker 8: it's got older. The average volunteer age is probably over 60.
- 33:16Speaker 8: We really need the next generation coming up to step
- 33:22Speaker 8: up and fill a lot of footsteps. But, you know,
- 33:27Speaker 8: it's hard work, but it's the giving back that's satisfying. But,
- 33:32Speaker 8: you know, we get young people coming in and we
- 33:36Speaker 8: can teach them all sorts of things, people skills, life skills.
- 33:43Speaker 8: And we also, if you're lonely, if you're out there,
- 33:47Speaker 8: you can do a bit of volunteering as You can
- 33:49Speaker 8: do an hour a week. You could do an hour
- 33:51Speaker 8: a month. But you meet lots of lovely people. You
- 33:56Speaker 8: make good friends. You learn lots of things. And you
- 33:59Speaker 8: get the satisfaction that you're making a difference. And the
- 34:03Speaker 8: volunteers in this country keep this country going. Without volunteers,
- 34:08Speaker 8: there would be no Australia. I mean, this country runs
- 34:13Speaker 8: on the back of volunteers.
- 34:14Speaker 11: And.
- 34:16Speaker 8: We save the government billions of dollars a year on
- 34:19Speaker 8: things they'd have to pay for or things they would scrap.
- 34:24Speaker 3: Thank you, Sue. I couldn't agree with you anymore. We've
- 34:26Speaker 3: got to keep moving. But volunteers, they are the lifeblood,
- 34:29Speaker 3: backbone of what we do. To me, and it's only
- 34:32Speaker 3: the real area that I've experienced, but community sport, a
- 34:36Speaker 3: lot of that wouldn't happen without volunteers, your presidents, your
- 34:39Speaker 3: boards of footy clubs and basketball clubs in and around Adelaide.
- 34:42Speaker 3: Talking a few things, Charlie on the text line, hi,
- 34:45Speaker 3: I volunteered at Sandville level at two clubs for 20 years,
- 34:49Speaker 3: eight at local footy level, Regener... revegetated areas of Onka
- 34:54Speaker 3: River and monitored endangered birds and currently at Adelaide Oval.
- 34:58Speaker 3: You do it, help and give back. No money or recognition.
- 35:02Speaker 3: Before we get to Tom Wren, get your phone ready
- 35:04Speaker 3: for some Googling, Ned. Leo in Paraka. Good morning, mate.
- 35:07Speaker 3: What's going on?
- 35:10Speaker 4: Oh, nothing much. I want to catch these two boys out.
- 35:13Speaker 5: Leo, what do you need?
- 35:16Speaker 4: Now, there was a footballer. He wore glasses. Did you
- 35:21Speaker 4: know that?
- 35:22Speaker 6: No.
- 35:22Speaker 3: Not Mason Cox.
- 35:24Speaker 2: Sorry?
- 35:25Speaker 3: No, go on. Go on, Leo.
- 35:28Speaker 4: I'll give you a clue. He played for Essendon. And
- 35:33Speaker 4: he played in the 1977 Grand Final for Port Adelaide.
- 35:38Speaker 4: And he wore glasses.
- 35:41Speaker 3: Was it Jeff somebody?
- 35:44Speaker 4: Jeff. Yeah, you're right so far. Yep. Your first name
- 35:47Speaker 4: was Jeff.
- 35:48Speaker 3: Jeff Blython.
- 35:49Speaker 4: That's it, that's it. Oh, you're pretty good.
- 35:52Speaker 5: Yeah, hey.
- 35:53Speaker 4: Leo.
- 35:54Speaker 3: Leo, you didn't expect that, did you?
- 35:55Speaker 5: What made you get up this morning and think of him?
- 35:57Speaker 4: Oh, well, you know, I like to talk about, you know,
- 36:05Speaker 4: the history of the game and all that sort of stuff.
- 36:08Speaker 4: Can I tell you one more? Yeah, yeah.
- 36:10Speaker 3: Go for it, Leo.
- 36:10Speaker 4: There's only one football hero in South Australia, in Australia, really.
- 36:18Speaker 4: But there's only one footballer in South Australia. He won
- 36:21Speaker 4: three McGarry medals three years on the road. Can you
- 36:24Speaker 4: tell me his name and who he played for?
- 36:26Speaker 3: Gary McIntosh, Norwood?
- 36:29Speaker 4: Nah, he wouldn't get a place in that bloke.
- 36:32Speaker 3: Barry Robert, North Adelaide.
- 36:34Speaker 6: No.
- 36:35Speaker 4: This guy, I said, he's the only footballer that won
- 36:38Speaker 4: three medals three years in a row, and he only
- 36:41Speaker 4: played 97 games.
- 36:44Speaker 5: Okay.
- 36:46Speaker 4: I'll give you a clue. You play for South Adelaide.
- 36:48Speaker 3: Dan Mority.
- 36:52Speaker 4: That's it. You're right, son. Dan Mority.
- 36:55Speaker 5: Nice, Leo.
- 36:56Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 36:57Speaker 3: Well done, Leo. We always love your call-in interactions. Keep
- 37:00Speaker 3: buzzing in, mate. We appreciate it.
- 37:02Speaker 1: The latest in sports with Tom Wren.
- 37:04Speaker 3: Tommy Wren. We just went through a bit of a
- 37:05Speaker 3: quiz night there, but morning, Tom. No, I love it.
- 37:07Speaker 3: Good work, boys.
- 37:08Speaker 5: That's what it's all about, a bit of variety.
- 37:11Speaker 1: And, fellas... The basketball last night.
- 37:14Speaker 3: When it started... No good. No good.
- 37:16Speaker 2: No good.
- 37:17Speaker 10: So the Sixers are now 2-4. How concerned are we?
- 37:22Speaker 5: I don't like what's going on at the Sixers, Rennie. Injuries...
- 37:25Speaker 5: The crisis, though, isn't it?
- 37:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so.
- 37:28Speaker 10: I think injuries are the massive issue. So Corey Webster
- 37:31Speaker 10: played last night. He was the ring-in, 37 years of age,
- 37:34Speaker 10: to just try and cover Flynn Cameron.
- 37:36Speaker 3: How'd he go?
- 37:38Speaker 1: I think okay, but.
- 37:40Speaker 3: Serviceable?
- 37:40Speaker 1: Serviceable, but.
- 37:42Speaker 10: They were well beaten. Well, not well beaten, but they
- 37:44Speaker 10: were down by 13 at the start of the last quarter.
- 37:47Speaker 10: They got it back to five. They only lost 96
- 37:49Speaker 10: to 91 in the end. But like I said, you know, now, Sammy,
- 37:54Speaker 10: two and four, it makes it difficult. And the problem
- 37:58Speaker 10: is Bryce Cotton scored 33. Rukosevic, who was pretty fortunate
- 38:02Speaker 10: to play in the end after having his suspension overturned,
- 38:04Speaker 10: he also scored 33.
- 38:07Speaker 1: Outside of that, not much.
- 38:09Speaker 3: Mike Wells might be just sitting back. In the States,
- 38:12Speaker 3: just having a beer and.
- 38:13Speaker 1: A little smirk on his face.
- 38:14Speaker 3: Nothing to go too bad. But look, it's... Early days.
- 38:17Speaker 3: Early days. New coach, new system.
- 38:19Speaker 10: And when you lose three of your starting five, it
- 38:22Speaker 10: makes a hell of a difference in basketball, as we know.
- 38:25Speaker 10: So concerns there, work to do, but hopefully, you know,
- 38:29Speaker 10: it's going to be okay. Another one, South Australia started
- 38:33Speaker 10: their Cricket Shield defence, title defence yesterday.
- 38:37Speaker 1: We've never gone back-to-back. We've done that, going for three
- 38:39Speaker 1: in a row now. Good start with the ball.
- 38:40Speaker 10: Jake Weatherall, unfortunately, out late in the day, but pretty
- 38:43Speaker 10: solid there. We've got the Test Series starting tomorrow. Looking
- 38:47Speaker 10: forward to that. Trade period's interesting. Essendon, I reckon, Ned,
- 38:52Speaker 10: throughout your playing days and probably for the last 20 years,
- 38:55Speaker 10: have been notoriously the most difficult club to deal with.
- 38:59Speaker 10: Just always dragging things out until... Zach Merritt would probably
- 39:02Speaker 10: agree with that last year. But this year, now, I
- 39:05Speaker 10: don't know if it's the new coach. They've just gone,
- 39:08Speaker 10: Zach Merritt, get it done. Jordan Ridley, see you later.
- 39:10Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 39:11Speaker 1: I like it.
- 39:12Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 39:12Speaker 1: Get him out.
- 39:13Speaker 5: Yeah, they're facilitating trades for those more experienced players.
- 39:16Speaker 4: Move on.
- 39:16Speaker 5: They need to get young players in, Rennie, and draft capital.
- 39:19Speaker 1: And then, exactly, and then look internally.
- 39:23Speaker 10: Very, very early days there, but I don't mind this
- 39:26Speaker 10: approach from, and I know it's not just Mark McVay,
- 39:28Speaker 10: but I'm sure he's got a fair handprint on it.
- 39:32Speaker 10: It's the first time he's sort of the senior coach
- 39:35Speaker 10: while something significant is happening, which trade period is.
- 39:39Speaker 1: So, yeah, they're moving at the moment. Rennie, you know when.
- 39:43Speaker 5: Your house is a little unclean, you've got crap everywhere,
- 39:46Speaker 5: and you kind of look at it and you go,
- 39:48Speaker 5: I need to do that, I need to do that,
- 39:50Speaker 5: and then someone comes over for dinner on Saturday. So
- 39:53Speaker 5: Saturday morning you do that mad big clean and sort
- 39:56Speaker 5: everything out and then your house looks spotless. Can we
- 39:59Speaker 5: have that perspective with trade period?
- 40:00Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's a great analogy.
- 40:02Speaker 5: Bring the deadline forward.
- 40:04Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 40:04Speaker 5: Seriously, a consequence of time. you know, instills action.
- 40:08Speaker 10: I'm totally with you. I, because as you and I
- 40:11Speaker 10: have long discussed these discussions for players like Ridley and, um,
- 40:17Speaker 10: you know, Zach Bailey and all the others, they don't
- 40:20Speaker 10: happen just this week. They've been happening for 12 months.
- 40:23Speaker 10: And so the reason clearly they do it is to
- 40:26Speaker 10: monetize it. You know, there's, radio programs that are dedicated
- 40:31Speaker 10: you know just to that but yes i think nine
- 40:33Speaker 10: days is too long it could be done in three
- 40:36Speaker 10: yeah i think or four you know make it a
- 40:38Speaker 10: week uh but it goes for 10 days i think
- 40:40Speaker 10: doesn't it so yeah it drags on too long.
- 40:43Speaker 3: Gotta give trade radio something to talk about.
- 40:45Speaker 10: Well that's it you know so but it does it
- 40:48Speaker 10: it's elongated more and more isn't it i'm on.
- 40:51Speaker 5: The farm at the moment with my best mate nick
- 40:53Speaker 5: murray every day and um We're talking about the trade
- 40:56Speaker 5: situation or whatever. Obviously, he wants to get to North Melbourne,
- 40:59Speaker 5: which is totally fair enough, in my opinion. I said
- 41:01Speaker 5: to him, what's the go? Are you going to hear
- 41:02Speaker 5: anything this week? And he goes, no, I don't think
- 41:03Speaker 5: I'll hear anything this week. I said to him, what
- 41:05Speaker 5: the heck? What are they doing? I mean, it's not
- 41:07Speaker 5: exactly they have other jobs to sort out. They're purely
- 41:11Speaker 5: working on trade right now. How can they not manage
- 41:13Speaker 5: three or four trades?
- 41:14Speaker 8: Mm-hmm.
- 41:15Speaker 5: It's 24 hours in a day, Renny.
- 41:16Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 41:17Speaker 5: How long does it take to pick up the phone
- 41:18Speaker 5: and say, look, what do you need here? Oh, my goodness.
- 41:21Speaker 5: It drags on too long.
- 41:22Speaker 3: It does, doesn't it?
- 41:23Speaker 10: It's a bit like 10 paces at dawn. You know,
- 41:25Speaker 10: it's just a staring contest, isn't it? They just look
- 41:27Speaker 10: at each other and try and get it done. Now, Sammy,
- 41:30Speaker 10: I've done a bit of deep diving. Bathurst starts this weekend.
- 41:33Speaker 3: Hit me, Renny.
- 41:33Speaker 1: I think Mark Winterbottom and Cam Waters.
- 41:36Speaker 9: Really?
- 41:36Speaker 10: I think they're about 6th or 7th. On the betting line,
- 41:38Speaker 10: I reckon they're valued this weekend. Now, shoot me down.
- 41:41Speaker 3: Okay. It's your money. Who do you like? I mean,
- 41:44Speaker 3: dollar one favourite for me is probably Brock Feeney, Nick Perkatt,
- 41:47Speaker 3: Red Bull. That worked very well. That was the other
- 41:49Speaker 3: one I was going to say. Nick Perkatt is my guy.
- 41:51Speaker 3: I've followed him throughout everywhere. Now he's back as a co-driver.
- 41:54Speaker 3: He's back at Red Bull Racing. Matt Payne, he is
- 41:57Speaker 3: the reigning winner of the Bathurst 1000, but his co-driver
- 42:00Speaker 3: from last year, Garth Dander, has retired. So he's now
- 42:02Speaker 3: in the commentary box. He's teaming up with Will Davison,
- 42:04Speaker 3: another long stalwart of the game. He will be hard
- 42:08Speaker 3: to go past. And also another previous winner, Brodie Kostecki
- 42:11Speaker 3: and Todd Hazelwood, South Australia's own Toddy Hazelwood. They won
- 42:15Speaker 3: a couple of years ago for Dick Johnson Racing. But
- 42:18Speaker 3: my money would be on, probably not good enough odds
- 42:20Speaker 3: to jump on, would be Brock Feeney, Nick Perk up.
- 42:22Speaker 5: Okay.
- 42:23Speaker 3: I like that. A nice little nod to history and nostalgia.
- 42:27Speaker 3: Gary Rogers Motorsport, GRM. They haven't been in the series
- 42:30Speaker 3: for about six or seven years. Now, they pulled out
- 42:33Speaker 3: Gary Rogers, the name of the great man who was
- 42:36Speaker 3: the boss of the team for a long time, passed
- 42:37Speaker 3: away last year. They won back in the year 2000
- 42:41Speaker 3: with Garth Tander and Jason Barguana. They've entered... the Bathurst
- 42:46Speaker 3: 1000 this year in a wildcard entry, as you can do.
- 42:49Speaker 3: They're paying homage to the 2000 winning car, so the
- 42:52Speaker 3: car's decked out in the same livery. James Moffat, son
- 42:55Speaker 3: of a gun, has returned to GRM to race that
- 42:58Speaker 3: program alongside Nathan Hearn, who's a young up-and-comer driver in
- 43:02Speaker 3: the series who's been trying to get a start. And
- 43:05Speaker 3: they're also going to be paying homage to the passing
- 43:07Speaker 3: of Gary Rogers as well. Spoke to James Moffat on
- 43:09Speaker 3: the weekend about it on AA, and it's just a
- 43:12Speaker 3: nice little nod to history for And of course, we
- 43:15Speaker 3: do know it is 20 years since Peter Brock has passed.
- 43:18Speaker 3: So I've been seeing footage of everything in and around
- 43:21Speaker 3: Bathurst and it's just decked out in Brockie's old cars,
- 43:24Speaker 3: all his memorabilia. So it's going to be a big,
- 43:27Speaker 3: big weekend for motorsport fans at Bathurst and who are
- 43:29Speaker 3: watching along on TV, on Fox and on Channel 7.
- 43:32Speaker 3: It's just a cracking weekend of motorsport. And... The weather
- 43:35Speaker 3: is looking mighty interesting.
- 43:37Speaker 1: Which it wasn't last year, was it, Sammy?
- 43:39Speaker 3: The weather, it's going to be rain on Saturday for
- 43:42Speaker 3: the top ten shootout, and it's looking like it's going
- 43:44Speaker 3: to be showers on the Sunday for the race, so
- 43:47Speaker 3: anything could happen.
- 43:48Speaker 1: Okay, keep an eye on that.
- 43:49Speaker 5: Didn't he just laugh? Light up there, Rennie. It's nice
- 43:51Speaker 5: to see him kind of energized about something.
- 43:54Speaker 1: I don't give.
- 43:55Speaker 3: A stuff about AFL trade.
- 43:56Speaker 5: Seriously, he just lit up.
- 43:58Speaker 1: He was into it.
- 43:59Speaker 5: It's a weird kind of complex he is, isn't he?
- 44:01Speaker 5: Because he's a vegan, but he loves Bathurst. So it's
- 44:03Speaker 5: a weird juxtaposition.
- 44:05Speaker 3: You'd love to know what I did two days ago.
- 44:07Speaker 2: What?
- 44:07Speaker 5: Ate any meat?
- 44:08Speaker 3: I went out for lunch with my mum. We went
- 44:10Speaker 3: to Sushi Train. We love a bit of Sushi Train.
- 44:13Speaker 3: Picked off a plate, started eating it. Mum goes, since
- 44:16Speaker 3: when do you eat squid? I took a bite, and
- 44:19Speaker 3: I thought it was deep-fried veggie tempura. It looked exactly
- 44:22Speaker 3: like the squid.
- 44:23Speaker 5: You heartless murderer.
- 44:25Speaker 3: I mean, it tasted pretty nice. So I finished off
- 44:28Speaker 3: the plate. But there you go. I've had some meat.
- 44:30Speaker 3: You're a fraud.
- 44:31Speaker 5: You tell everyone you're a vegan. Make your mind up.
- 44:34Speaker 5: I'm never telling anyone I'm a vegan.
- 44:35Speaker 3: God, you're annoying.
- 44:38Speaker 1: Sushi train is good. I'd take the boys there a bit.
- 44:40Speaker 1: It's good.
- 44:40Speaker 5: But I hate sushi train.
- 44:42Speaker 1: Can we bring him back to the.
- 44:43Speaker 3: You don't. You just dislike it.
- 44:45Speaker 5: Sushi train is the stupidest concept ever. It's so expensive
- 44:49Speaker 5: and there's small plates and it comes around. It's like,
- 44:51Speaker 5: I just want what I want. I don't want a
- 44:53Speaker 5: bloody train chuffing around.
- 44:54Speaker 1: I order all my stuff so I know it gets made.
- 44:56Speaker 3: For me first.
- 44:57Speaker 5: Sushi train is terrible.
- 44:58Speaker 2: Terrible.
- 44:58Speaker 3: Give a nod to Sushi Train. They'll never be sponsoring
- 45:00Speaker 3: early breakfast. Tommy, thank you for your time. Now, we
- 45:03Speaker 3: won't hear from you for a couple of days because
- 45:04Speaker 3: we're not on for a couple of days, so we'll
- 45:06Speaker 3: see you Wednesday morning. Back here bright and early.
- 45:08Speaker 1: Wednesday. Okay, look forward to it.
- 45:09Speaker 3: All right. Quick break. Really, really quick break because we're
- 45:12Speaker 3: running out of time. 5AA Breakfast. Will and Stace coming
- 45:14Speaker 3: up shortly. It's almost time for us to get out
- 45:16Speaker 3: of here. A minute to six. Will and Stace for
