Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, Welcome to Wednesday, this eighteenth day of June.
Hope we find you well. What's on the show today,
including your participation. I'd like to remind you that you
are the eyes and ears of the five double A audience.
So if things are happening in your neck of the woods,
at the end of your street, in your suburb, and
you think it might be of interest to the general

(00:20):
public and the general audience, please give us a call
eight double two to three double oh. Well. When the
announcement was first made about Livgolf moving to the North
Adelaide Golf Course, Premier Peter Malinaarskus stood side by side
with Adelaide Lord Mayor Jane Lomacksmith in what appeared to
be a unity ticket. Fast forward to yesterday and there
was the Premier introducing new legislation to take control of

(00:41):
the North Adelaide Golf Course for redevelopment, while Lord Mayor
Jane Lomacksmith was thousands of kilometers away overseas. Premier Peter
Malinarskus has been criticized for sidelining the Adelaide City Council
while taking control of the redevelopment. Deputy Lord Mayor Philip
Martin slammed the move, saying the council has been engaged
in ongoing negotiation with the state government to revamp the

(01:02):
golf course for the twenty twenty eight golf tournament. The
Deputy Lord May says they undertook to negotiate first with
our ratepayers and they have come in with a sledgehammer.
We have been left out in the cold. On the
same day the premier pronouncement of the bill, A bill
was introduced in Parliament. It grants the state government full
control over the site, including adjacent Park twenty seven A.

(01:24):
It ensures state oversight of development, planning approval and ongoing operations,
while merely requiring consultation with the council. It would appear
after getting the city Council on side initially, the Premier
has pulled the rug from under the council's feet, rendering
them little more than bystanders. The Adelaide Parklands Association condemned
the plan. Spokesman Shane Sodi, who will talk too shortly,

(01:46):
has warned of permanent damage to the parklands, calling the
move a clear signal the Premier is not interested in
protecting the area. For a mere three day event. Well,
there's still so much to play out before live golf
tease up at North Adelaide Golf Course. What are your thoughts?
Are you for it or again it? Or should there
be more room for negotiation? Let's know what you're thinking.
Eight double two to three double O double OW was

(02:08):
interesting to note and hear that the last live golf
in Adelaide generated eighty one million dollars for the local economy.
So love it or hate it, it certainly is good
for the South Australian economy. The move from Grange, a
lot of people say why not stay at Grange? Well,
the reason being largely is that the members at Grange

(02:30):
don't want it to stay there. They've had enough of it.
They're upsetting and rearranging the golf course every year for
quite a considerable period. While they've had some benefits improvement
to the course, improvement of the surrounds, et cetera, they
no longer or don't want it to continue beyond I
think one more year or so, maybe two years, I'm
not sure. Other people say, well, just put it on

(02:53):
another golf course. Well, part of the problem is with
live golf you actually need effectively to golf courses or
the area of two golf courses, So other courses like
Cuyonga and Ryal Adelaide just simply could not accommodate live golf.
North Adelaide, the Parklands is perfect. There are two golf

(03:13):
courses there already, amalgamate that into to one super course
and extra facilities, and it would be ideal for live golf.
And just imagine what it would generate economically for the
city if you can locate it at Grange and get
eighty million dollars plus what would having an event like
that in the city. We only have to think about

(03:34):
what the five h and thirty five million dollar redevelopment
of Adelaide Oval has done for the economy and how
many of us were against it. And I put my
hand up here. I loved having living at Westlakes, I
loved having footy just across the road. It was great.
But grudgingly I have to admit that the move to

(03:54):
Adelaide Oval was a win win, a win for the community,
win for the economy and a win for football. Would
live golf be the same, You might have different views.
I'd certainly like to hear them eight double two three
doubo is that number. Also on the show today an
Australian Strategic Defense ex But Peter Jennings thinks the US

(04:15):
is getting ready to participate in military strikes against Iran,
likely within a week, maybe within a few days, And
we'll speak with Peter Jennings about why he thinks the
US intervention is imminent. Hospital workers across the state are
taking strike action as part of their campaign for fair
pay and respect. Workers at Glenside will walk off the
job at nine point thirty this morning. We'll find out

(04:35):
more about that. My Brilliant Career, Do you remember that movie?
It was a book originally, but it was made into
a movie back in nineteen seventy nine, I believe, starred
Judy Davis, Sam Neil Wendy Hughes. It was a huge
success and was around the time of the revival of
the movie industry in Australia, largely centered around South Australia.

(04:58):
Of course, Will, there's some great news My Brilliant Career.
The book is being made into a Netflix mini series
here in South Australia, a seventeen million dollar boost of
the South Australian economy and pretty exciting news.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Indeed, don't you ever dream us more to life than
this very nothing born A girl being born.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
The original trailer for the movie My Brilliant Career, which
was a huge success. Great news that they're going to
make a Netflix series which will be a huge boost
to the South Australian economy. Great news, tax time rapidly approaching.
Today on the show, Hank Young and from Centerlink will
join us to answer all your questions. If you're on
Social Security payments, what are your tax obligations? Also, if

(05:55):
you have any questions regarding Center Link. Hank is your
man and he's been a regular on the show the
years and we'll have him on this morning, but get
in early with your questions. Eight double two three double
O DOUBLEO is the number to ring and a remarkable
story of This is an investigation underway after a sleeping
child was left alone on a lock bus an after
school trip on Friday. The primary school age boy transported

(06:18):
from Lake Winderby at B six School to Riverdale Primary School,
was left on the bus and was only discovered at
four point fifty at a secure depot. Now Happy Havens HC,
which manages the transport service, confirmed safety procedures had not
been followed. The child who had fallen asleep remained on
the bus after the others disembarked. The bus was then

(06:40):
locked and returned to the depot. The child was safely
reunited with a family. What a terrifying situation. What a
basic thing. Don't you do a head count? I mean
it, It happens with footy teams. It doesn't have to be
kids with more senior people. You know, forty four people
got on the bus. Forty four people have got to
get off. And surely, even if you don't do a headcount,

(07:00):
somebody in authority should walk up and down the bus
check the seats to see not only if there's somebody
left there, but if they've left something there. I mean,
that happens. It seems to be a major oversight. And
I know Happy Haven is very sorry about what happened,
But really an investigation should and will be conducted into that.
A double two to three double O double. If you

(07:22):
want to comment on that or any other things we're
talking about, please give us a call.

Speaker 3 (07:26):
Five double A Mornings with Graham Goodings.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Twenty past nine, five double A on this I was
going to have beautiful morning. It's not too bad, not
too bad, overcast, quite mild on this eighteenth day of June. Well,
the Premier has made a huge announcement about the redeveloped
of North Adelaide golf Course, which has put the Adelaide
City Council offside. This is how he defended the decision
on breakfast this morning. This looks like a pretty hostile

(07:51):
sort of a takeover, doesn't it.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
I wouldn't describe it that way. I mean, I think
ultimately what we're doing here is legislating to make a
golf course a golf course, and it's not particularly revolutionary.
I think it's fair to say. You know, I've been
really grateful for the collaboration we've had from the la
City Council about the outcome that we're working towards. Like that,

(08:13):
in most quarters of the council, not all clearly, but
in most quarters of the council are actually supportive of
the redevelopment because it actually is going to save their money.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
And that's what the Premier had to say this morning. Well,
Adelaide Parkland's Associate chairperson Shane Surdei joins us. Now, Shane,
you obviously have a different point of view.

Speaker 5 (08:34):
Oh, good morning, Graham. Yes, you've got to remember what
we're talking about here is a three day event for
millionaire five fo golfers, and what the premiere is talking
about is changing the character of one of the largest
parks within the world's unique out of lake parklands to

(08:54):
make it much less of a park and more of
an up scale golf course or a resort. As a
fundamental difference of opinion, you know, the golf course is
a park, the park is a golf course. For one
hundred years or so, it's been both. It's been a park,
a lovely, very heavily forested park, and also a golf course.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
Well, you don't take into account the economic benefit to
the state.

Speaker 5 (09:20):
Of course, there can be an economic benefit to the
state from events, but does that have to come at
the expense of one of the most beautiful parts of
the park plans and the only city in the world
that is built inside a park. You can play live
golf anywhere. They've been playing it at Grange, they could
play it at any one of a number of other

(09:41):
golf courses or even brand new golf courses the Premier
might want to build elsewhere. You don't have to attack
a park to get economic benefits from a three day event.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
He said that for every tree taken out there would
be three to replace him.

Speaker 5 (09:56):
Well, the state government has an agency called Green Adelaide,
and Green Adelaide strongly advises against that sort of philosophy.
It's published a document called seven Readelaides Mature Trees because
mature trees have benefits that new trees can't have. And
they went to the last election promising to protect Adelaide's

(10:17):
inquiry into the loss of Adelaide's tree canopy. And what
are they planning to do now cut down hundreds of
trees in the most heavily forested part of the Adelaide parkland.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Well, the government has held on pressing ahead with us.
You've got a long battle ahead of it.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
Well, they seem to have rather short memories, or perhaps
they're slow learners. You might recalled. Two years ago there
was a great controversy when they wanted to put a
secure police barracks at enormous size eight hectares onto a
park in the southwest Adelaide Parklands. We had massive protes
and that was after legislation had already gone through the

(10:56):
Parliament to give the Policemanister the power to confiscate any
part of the park plans for a police barracks. Massive
public protests occurred. We had one thousand people turn up
at that park with umbrellas put up the umbrellas to
symbolize providing cover to Murnu. We're it's the name of
the park and the government eventually reluctantly back down and

(11:19):
realized that there are thousands of people who love the
Adelaide Park plans. The Premier has got two Upper House
mlfes on his side. The park plans have thousands of
South Australians on that site.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
Shane Sade, thanks for your input today. Well, the Green's
also outspoken on the issue. Robert Simms joins us. Now, Robert,
good morning, Good morning Graham. What do you think of
the premiers movie yesterday.

Speaker 6 (11:45):
Oh look, I think it was an appalling process that
we saw unfold in the Parliament yesterday. For the last
six months, ever since this issue first came on the horizon,
the Greens have been calling for more detail. The government
at the time said that it might explore back up
legislation and I said, look, I'd like to find out
what is going to be in that legislation. We also

(12:06):
said we wanted to see a business case, we wanted
to look at some exact plans around what sort of
footprint this new development would have. Well, no information was forthcoming.
And then yesterday the Premier stood up and did a
press conference with two of my cross bench colleagues and said, hey, Presto,
I've got the numbers to get this bill through the Parliament. Well,

(12:27):
I haven't even seen the bill and it's pretty irregular
for members of Parliament to be making commitments to support
legislation that most of the parliament hasn't even seen. I
also think it's a real slap in the face to
the Adelaide's City Council. They've made negotiating with the government
in good faith around this, and yet once the Lord

(12:48):
Mayor is out of the country, she's understanding Germany at
the moment, representing the city trying to support our bid
for cop while she's overseas, the government pounces and announces plan.
So it's a very poor way I think to approach
our public green space. And I do agree with the
comments of Shane Sodi that Labor really has form when

(13:11):
it comes to taking on the park LANs. During this
term of Parliament, whether it's been trying to seize the
park LANs for the new police barracks, whether it's been
riding roughshot over heritage laws for the new women's and
Children's hospital. They're not really respecting our public green space.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
So are you against the concept of live golf moving
to North Adelaide altogether?

Speaker 6 (13:36):
Well, look, I'm actually against the concept of live golf
in general. I see it as being a sportswashing exercise
by the Saudi government, and there's a reason why most
cities around the world don't want to host this event.
The Saudi government has an appalling human rights record and
this really is a bit of an exercise for them

(13:59):
to try and build as social license. So I don't
think South Australia should be associating ourselves with that brand.
But irrespective of that, I think there's serious questions here
about the impact on our public green space and the
footprint of this new golf course. I haven't been properly
briefed yet on the legislation, but I did have a

(14:20):
brief opportunity to look through yesterday. It was provided to
me by the Opposition, and one of the things that
struck me is that this gives the government potentially power
to acquire park plans that are beyond just the existing
site of the Adelaide golf course, and that's very concerning. So,
you know, my hope is when this comes to the

(14:41):
Upper House that those cross benches Conny Bnarus is there
again that has made a pre commitment to support the government,
that they actually read the fine print and that they
slow this down. And certainly from my perspective, I'll be
looking at this very carefully and looking to move amendments
to try and constrain what the government is proposed.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
Thinking here, Robert, well, while you've got you on the line,
you're moving to hold the Walker tr development.

Speaker 6 (15:05):
I believe, Yeah, that's right. So and again I talked
about the Labor Party's attacks on our public green space.
They're just mounting up. You know, the site that's been
proposed for this second Walker Corporation tower is actually designated parklands.
Now that plaza could be put to such better use.

(15:28):
It could be a public open space for the community
to enjoy. It could be a public Ampey theater. The
idea that we would just have an office tower occupy
what is literally the most valuable real estate in Adelaide
I think is outrageous and so the Greens are supportive
of the campaign that's been run by lots of prominent

(15:48):
South Australians, people like former Premier Lin Arnold, who've come
out and said the government needs to think again on
this and I'll be moving emotion in State Parliament today
palling on the government to step in and intervene in
our planning process to stop this happening. They did it
with the Crown and Anchor as a result of a
strong community campaign and pressure from the Greens, and I

(16:08):
hope that they will do so in this instance as well.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Robert Simms, Green's MLC, Thanks for your time today five
double A. What's your view on the redevelopment of the
North Adelaide golf course? From the text line Graham any suggestions?
Shane Sodi represents the voice of Adelaide as delusional. How
do these people, clearly in their twilight years, get to
influence the future of our city. Just go away and
find a hobby, don't be ages. What's age got to

(16:34):
do with an opinion that Shane Sadi has. Agree or
disagree as you will, but yeah, people in their twilight years,
what years are you in and what have you achieved?
Give us a call, tell us what you're thinking really is,
But don't bring agism, isn't it? That is just a nonsensical,
puerile argument. Max says the park is still available other
than when the live golf tournament is on the trees

(16:55):
will be replaced three to one. It's a good thing,
typical anti moving forward attitude. Good Oniamax, thanks for that
height double two to three double double is the numbered ring.
If you have a comment, love to hear it.

Speaker 3 (17:05):

Speaker 1 (17:09):
And a very good morning to you. We've got tickets
to give away today to the best of South Australia.
It's on this Friday night. We're celebrating Cheapest Chips for
your chance to win a one hundred dollars Cheapest Chips
vouger two tickets to our Best of SA dinner. Stay
listening a little bit later on in the morning and
we have tickets to see the magnificent Robertson Brothers two
concerts happening in South Australia. We'll tell you more about

(17:30):
that as the morning progresses, so stay tuned well. The
US may be about to join the strike on Iran.
The director of Strategic Analysis, Australia think tank and former
Deputy Director of the Defense Department, Peter Jennings, says there
are multiple reasons why Peter Jennings joins US now, Peter,
why do you think the US is about ready to strike?

Speaker 7 (17:51):
So, Graham, what we've seen in the last twenty four
thirty six hours or so is the Americans are moving
a significant amount as platforms into place. Most interesting for
me something like twenty four it's where refueling aircraft have
moved from the East coast of the United States over
to European theaters closer to the Middle East, and the

(18:15):
US aircraft carrier limits is now sailing at top speed
something like thirty one knots across the Indian Ocean, having
been in the Pacific, moving up to the Mediterranean. So
it's very clear that what the Trump administration is doing
is they're getting the pieces into place that makes it
possible for the President to decide to engage in military strikes.

(18:39):
He can choose not to, but I think the way
this is now tending is that we'll see America enter
into the conflict probably in the next three or four days.

Speaker 1 (18:48):
Although the President has denied it, it would seem that
he left the G seven summit early just to take
this sort of action.

Speaker 7 (18:55):
Yes, I think that's exactly right. And you know, he
could certainly make command decisions on Air Force one, but
he wants to be in the White House in the
situation room because that gives him probably real time video
access of various targets that they might be interested to hit,
and he needs to have the advice of his military commanders.
So that that's why he went back to Washington early.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
And would he have been in regular communication with the
Israeli Prime minister about this. It's a reasonable assume that
Israel would be aware of America's impending action.

Speaker 7 (19:28):
Absolutely. I think this has been very closely coordinated. The
Americans have said, look, we're not involved in the strikes,
and that is true up to now, but they have
been very heavily involved in other ways, which would include
providing intelligence to the Israelis about what to strike, doing

(19:48):
satellite based assessment of was a particular strike successful, did
the Israeli Defense Force need to go back. They've also
had ships in the Mediterranean which have been shooting down
Iranian drones missiles. So this has been very closely coordinated.
And that's because, you know, the Americans understand that Iran

(20:09):
with nuclear weapons is a threat not just to Israel
but also to the US self and to many other countries,
and so they're working closely. Even though Israel has been
leading the actual military part.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Of this activity in his first term and early in
his second term, the President is very keen to point
out that he has not initiated any military action, so
he would be loath to do so. So he must
be feeling that there is no other course of action.

Speaker 7 (20:38):
Yes, I think he's feeling the burdens of office Graham.
I think he comes to understand that isolationism doesn't actually
protect America's interests all the time. If you are the
world's largest economy and the only global superpower, from time
to time, you do have to become involved in military action.
So he's been cautious about it, and frankly, I think

(20:59):
that's too Trump's that credit. You know, you don't what
a president to be gung ho about military operations. But
this is an example where I think we will see
the US involved and if it helps to produce an
Iran which doesn't have nuclear weapons. That's to everybody's benefit.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
When it comes to the weaponry and firepower of Israel
and Iran, how did they stack up.

Speaker 8 (21:25):
Well?

Speaker 7 (21:25):
In the last twelve months, Israel has made enormous strikes
in being able to destroy Iranian air defense capabilities, and
they've done that on a couple of occasions. Back in
October last year when there was an Iranian a series
of missile strikes into Israel, and Israel used that as
an opportunity to go and destroy a lot of the

(21:47):
radar systems and missiles which Iran uses. And then earlier
this year, when Bashir al Asad was sort of wiped
away from his appalling regime in Syria, almost overnight, the
Israelis went in and destroyed a lot of Iranian military
equipment which was in Syria. And so when we come

(22:09):
up to today, in the last few days, it meant
to say that Iran had already been largely disarmed in
terms of its abilities to defend itself against Iranian Israeli
air strikes. And what Israel is doing now in addition
to going after the nuclear research complex, is that they're
taking out missiles, they're taking out air defense sites, they're

(22:30):
taking out senior commanders of the Iranian military and other organizations.
And right now Israel is clearly the dominant military force
between the two countries.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
Well, despite Israel's superiority, why is it then they think
that Donald Trump sees the need to step in.

Speaker 7 (22:51):
Well, there's a lot of commentary saying that there's one
thing Israel kn't and that is that it doesn't have
bombs frankly heavy enough and of aarticular design that they
can burrow through meters and meters of rock to get
to know deeply buried Iranian nuclear research facilities at a
place called ford Ou and one or two other places

(23:12):
as well. And it's said that really only the Americans
have the bunker busting bombs, in particular a thirty pound
bomb which they've used in places like petro Bora Caves
in Afghanistan to go after deeply protected, deeply buried vital sites.

(23:35):
You know my own view on that gramus that I
think Israelis probably have other things that they can do,
including cybertechnology, which can do a lot of damage in
these areas. But when you're talking about destroying nuclear capabilities,
you really can't believe that's chance I think that's the
number one objective of what America would be involved and

(23:55):
if it chooses to join this fight.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
So how far away do you think we from US
striking on Iran for three or four days?

Speaker 7 (24:04):
And I think that really has to do with just
making sure that the pieces are in place, the edge
where refueling is, there be aircraft and logistics that transferred
to a point where they can conduct these operations. And
America has enough of a military strength in place to
make it clear to the Iranians that there shouldn't be
any military response from the Iranians. So let's say towards

(24:28):
the end of the weekend. I think that's probably the
timeframe we're talking about.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
Peter, thanks so much for your time today. And that's
Director Strategic Analysis of Strata think tank Peter Jennings on
the five reasons he has that the US could enter
the Israel Iran conflict, and his suggestion is that it
will be within days. So watch this space. From the
text line High Graham Relive Golf. With all this governmental
time spent bickering over a three day golf tournament and

(24:55):
Parliament only sitting forty days this year, how does government
hope to resolve our housing christ the medical and ramping crisis.
How are they helping the homeless or pensioners. How they
wants to see productivity increase for wage rises. So how
do we measure our politicians' productivity for their pay rises?
What measurement is there for politicians? Good Onia, thanks for

(25:15):
that mark. Just one little correction there. The parliament only
sitting forty days. That's federal Parliament. I'm not sure how
many days they're sitting in the Southern State and Parliament,
but we will find that out. Good morning. These old
trees in the parklands provide shelter for bats and possums
and parrots in their hollows, some things that young replacement

(25:36):
trees can't do. Thank you, well. Wishes to you annual listeners.
We run the live golf tournament while at the same
time bidding for a cop circus. Does a carbon footprint
get factored in anywhere? Make it make sense, Anthony, Good
morning to you.

Speaker 8 (25:53):
I actually I thought I was listening to Sky and
use it for a minute that Peter Jennings is nothing
more than an Israeli spokesperson. It's absolute disgrace. You know, basically,
ninety percent of what he says is lies and rubbish
based on well basically, if if people actually just get
their news besides maybe Sky news. There's a lot more

(26:13):
happening over there, good or bad. But don't you worry
that the iron dome they've discovered was made out of
Butcher's paper and it's not going too well for them. Again,
good or bad, but the propaganda, you know, I know
this is a Murdoch empire. You know, there's a little
bit more seriously, but even your breakfast show today, you

(26:34):
know it's a bit of a joke. People will get misled.
And this is why there will be another war, because
there's scumbags like Peter Jennings and his mates that are
just representing one side of this, you know, and the
reason the Yanks are going to have to get involved
because Israel is not going so well and they're the
ones having your problem.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Good on you, Anthony, you've had you say You're welcome
to it. Ay Double two three, double O double is
the number to ring for your chance to head along
to see the Robertson Brothers on either Wednesday, June twenty
five at Her Majesty's Theater or Sunday, June twenty nine
at the Baross Art Center. Give me a call right
now eight double two three, double double five. The first
caller wins. The Robertson Brothers A Majesty Theater Wednesday night

(27:16):
in June twenty five and Baross Art Center Sunday afternoon,
June twenty nine. Love to hear from you and just
going back to the text line, no one wants anything
new until they see the money rolling in, says Lucy
in Woodville. Often the case isn't it and dollars speak
very loudly at times. Adlaid is always the city living

(27:37):
under a rock. We have an awesome opportunity to bring
Adelaide to the world stage, and everyone wants to kill
the hype. Let's make Adelaide better than Melbourne. Why would
you want to go there? I think Adelaide is better
than Melbourne. It all depends what you want. Do you
want just large and gross? Do you want to live
near the mcg We'll find go and live in Melbourne.
But look, I've lived in both cities. I was born

(27:58):
in Melbourne. But dear Idea every day. Adelaide's the place typical,
do nothing and oppose everything. Greens gig I think Premier
Pete is doing what we all wish we could do
when dealing with any council bypassing the bs and getting
stuff done. Having said that, he does appear more proactive

(28:18):
to sport issues and health or power management. So it
says Darren, there are people that would suggest that he
is incredibly proactive when it comes to sport. But to
be frank, live golf gather around the Adelaide five hundred
generate huge revenue for the state. Now we have this
discussion and argument at times that you know, the millions

(28:40):
that are are poured into getting these golf tournaments and
these the football here and the like could be spent
on hospitals. Well, dollar for dollar, there is no question.
You know, if you've got a lazy twenty million dollars,
it would be better spent on hospitals and health than
a sporting event. There's no question about that. But if

(29:00):
you look at the bigger picture, step back a second.
Health hospitals don't generate one dollar. They're a drain on
the economy and rightly so that's the way it has
to be. So they do not generate one dollar twenty
million dollars into hospitals all well and good. Twenty million
dollars into a sporting event, If you can turn that
into fifty or sixty million dollars annually, that comes into

(29:24):
consolidated revenue. Then with that fifty or sixty eighty million
dollars that they've golf generated last time around, that can
then be spent on health and welfare. So you'd have
to step back and take a look at the bigger picture.
Let's take a call out to Saint Agnes. Oh it's
an you're going to see Robertson Brothers. Congratulations, Oh, thank you,

(29:45):
that's wonderful. Yeah, what what era is your music? What
music do you like?

Speaker 5 (29:50):
Fifties and sixties?

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Oh, right up your alley. You're going to be very
very happy. The Robertson Brothers there. Their show is just sensational.
So congratulations, do you ann? Are you going to the
concert Her Majesty's Theatre or at the Barossa Arts Center.
Her at Her Majesty's are a wonderful location. Well, congratulations
you an well done. The Robertson Brothers Her Majesty's Theater

(30:11):
Wednesday night, June twenty five, The Barossa Arts Center Sunday
afternoon June twenty nine, five Double A Mornings with Graham Goodings,
Good morning, Welcome to the show. Wendy says, most people
don't have a problem with international sporting activities. It's the
destruction of Parklands that is the problem. Once it's gone,

(30:32):
it's gone. I don't know if you saw the vision
last night. That shocking vision captured the moment a woman
covered in blood smashed her way into the home of
former Channel seven personality Jan Beasley. It looked like something
out of a movie, a horror movie. In fact, that
happened just before a man was found dead next door.
Police arrested the thirty year old man or woman last

(30:53):
night after she allegedly smashed through the backglass door of
Jan Beasley and John Beasley's home on Walkable Terrace. Footage
from the confronting scene captures the moment the accused picks
up a plot plant and forces her way into the home.
It sends a chill down your mind just thinking about it,
and you hear a husband, John saying, get away from
our house. Go away. Officers then arrested the woman, who

(31:14):
was partially clothed covered in blood just before seven pm
last night, but just a horrific story, and there's been
a release from the Mayor of Walkerville, Melissa Jones. A
Council is aware of the incident that occurred at the
Housing Trust complex on Walkville Terrace on Monday night, currently
under investigation by say Pole. Our thoughts are with those affected.

(31:36):
We acknowledge the concerns this may have caused within our
local community. While this matter is being led by Saypol
and involves Essay Housing Trust, we want to reassure residents
that community safety is a high priority for council. We're
continuing to work with local authorities and actively exploring further
measures to support safety in the area as set out
in our annual business Plan and Strategic Plan. So that

(31:59):
is Elissa Jones, the Mayor of Walkeville. On the subject,
Andrew says rehousing trust issues, Jan Beasley said on the
Breakfast Show today that even before the break inch, he
didn't feel safe to leave a house or have friends over.
It's a common theme of residents living nearby housing trust sites.
The issue is the percentage mix of the residence being
one hundred percent housing trust. A Housing Trust complex near

(32:22):
Friends of Mine on Anzac Highway Camden Park was also
a ghetto with high crime. It's now to have a
forty eight dwelling apartment complex built with the proposed mix
of residents to be one hundred percent housing trust residents
near this proposed new development. Believe, as has been trialed elsewhere,
it should be a mix of one third housing trust,

(32:42):
one third affordable living, and one third private ownership to
ensure the social dynamic of the immediate area remains harmonious
and law abiding. Your thoughts eight double two three double
o double ow Kay says, surely if the profit from
big sport events goes to hotels and restaurants, not the government,
how would they get it? Well, k kay, there's a
thing called taxation. You know you pay tax, don't you.

(33:07):
You employ people so they're not on social welfare. So yes,
you generate huge profits, but that money stays within the system.
It's spent with the system. It's respent, and it's money.
It's new money. It's often people coming from inter state
or overseas, so you're not recycling south the strain and money.
You bring in something like fifty sixty eighty million dollars

(33:28):
of new money into the state, and it's spent in
hotels and restaurants and bars, cafes and the like. It
is spent, It employs people, it generates the economy, It
is positive, and then it ends up that can be
spent on our hospitals and medical services and education and
other areas. So you know, you can't quarantine and say, look,
just you know, we could fix the housing and health

(33:51):
issues by pouring all the money into those areas. Take
it away from every other department, every other area. We
could fix it. But what sort of society would we have?
So it just can't work that way. What are your thoughts?
Eight double two to three doub double ow. Well, you've
sort of got to feel a little bit for Albow,
don't you. He's managed to meet some senior Americans at
the G seven in Canada, even if it's not the

(34:14):
US President himself. Hours after Donald Trump left Calgary for Washington,
the PM had a plan B meeting. But the sole reason,
and this is a fact, the sole reason he went
to the G seven was to meet Donald Trump and
it never happened. So what can we take from that? Well,
for one, Australia doesn't rank all that highly on the
President's agenda. I mean, he did find time to meet

(34:37):
with UK PM kir Starmer and they made some agreements
and signed some deals or shook hands on some deals.
It looks like another example of Donald Trump valuing relationships
with other nations above US strata. It's been confirmed the
US President did indeed speak to another leader whose meeting
he missed due to his early departure. The White House
is confirmed that Donald Trump and Mexico's President Claudy Sheinbaum

(35:00):
I had a phone call on Tuesday. Now, mister Trump
had been expected to meet Miss Schinebalm at the G seven,
but like Anthony Albanesi, that meeting was canceled. But there's
been no word that Anthony Albanesi had a similar call.
I hark back, and this is no direct reflection on
Anthony Albanesi. I hark back to a liberal prime minister,

(35:20):
and this is decades ago. I think it was Sir
William McMahon who went across for a meeting that was
pre scheduled with the president of the time and he
was bumped. They said to him while he was waiting outside, Look, unfortunately,
we'll have to cancel that meeting because the German Defense
Minister has arrived in town and he wants a meeting

(35:40):
with a president, So the Australian Prime Minister was bumped
for the defense minister from Germany. So, you know, much
and all, as we love our country, we think it's
we're pretty important significant, we're not. We're minnows on the
world stage. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but
we just have to appreciate that our impact on the
world is animal and so you know, we have to

(36:02):
take the crumbs. Hopefully at some stage there will be
a meeting with Anthony Albanesi and Donald Trump. People have
suggested that Donald Trump's been in office for six months,
why didn't Anthony Albanesi organize a meeting world before this
time to establish a rapport. Let's know what you think?
Eight double two three double double oh. From the text line,

(36:22):
Albanizi is an embarrassment to Australia. We need a no
confidence movement or no confidence motion. Maybe high Graham regarding
the conflict in the Middle East, we were certainly not
misled about October seventh, twenty twenty three. I think that
explains it all. Thank you, Joanne high Graham. If the
government removes trees from the North Adelaide golf course, can
I get all my lost balls back. Ah, debb be

(36:44):
very funny. I like that. I find it amusing. The
previous caller thinks five double A and Sky broadcasting misinformation.
Obviously he doesn't listen to the ABC that has a
proven record of misinformation. So it says Garry Graham, it's
all wrong saying the money generated through live golf when
it should be spent on a government run mental health

(37:06):
facility like Glen's Side, also a rehabilitation center. The young
woman may not have murdered that gentleman if it had
been managed. Shocking. Sorry, this is not easy to read.
The money is now going to be spent on keeping
her in prison, along with a lot of other prisoners
with mental health conditions. Yep, the subject for another time.
Surely the profit from big sports events goes to hotels

(37:27):
and restaurants, not the government. How will they get it? Yeah, okay,
we've discussed that. The money does. If you earn money,
you pay taxes. The more you earn, the more tax
you pay. You might like doing that, but the more
you pay, the more it goes into the government coffers
and they redistribute that and hopefully they redistribute it in
the right way. Joseph, good morning, Yeah.

Speaker 9 (37:49):
Good ay, Graham. I'm just calling in regards to the
text that came through about taking down old trees and
parklands and then replacing them with new ones and the
effect of that on wildlife. My dad was actually the
parks and wildlife, but when I was growing up, we
actually raised a little baby possum that needed rearing, like

(38:11):
bottle feeding, and we looked after a few native animals
as a kid growing up, And I remember my dad
always saying that one thing that really bothered him was
that it it takes like tens of years, for like
decades for a tree to to form like these hollows
in them, because what essentially happens is as a branch
will fall down, which obviously takes the mature tree to occur,

(38:35):
and then out of that that hollow, out of that
branch snapping off will create like a hollow with a
lot of native animals then use as as homes. And
without those old trees, those parklands are literally just emptied
of those homes, you know, native animals such as bossom.
So yeah, it's just something that I do. I do
think a lot of people miss when they think, oh,

(38:56):
you know, we can just replace trees with old.

Speaker 10 (38:58):
With new ones.

Speaker 9 (38:59):
It's a lot, it's a lot more complicated than that.

Speaker 1 (39:02):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, thanks for that, And that is true.
It is all well and good for the premier to say,
look for every tree we'll take out, we'll replace it
with three. Well, some of those trees are just magnificent trees.
And where are you going to get the trees like
that to replace them? You can't. You can get established
trees that maybe five ten years old out how far

(39:25):
back you can go. But how do you replace a
thirty forty fifty year old tree, and you know all
the intricacies of that, and just drop three in the
same spot. No, that doesn't quite work. Not saying that
I'm against what the redevelopment is at all, but we
have to be very sensitive about that. Fred says, if
you gave Trump a world map and ask him to

(39:45):
point to oustrata, he might not know where it is. Well,
let's face it, he didn't quite know what orcust was,
did he. Five Double A Mornings with Dram Goodings. Had
a very good morning to you. You're considering holidays this
time of year, trying to get away from pretty cold
Adelaide to somewhere warmer. Well if you're heading off to Bali,
I think twice flights between Adelaide and Bali have been canceled.

(40:07):
There's a massive volcano spews ash into the sky in
eastern Indonesia. It's left holiday makers already scrambling. So if
you've got plans to head to Ballei, check with the airline.
This morning, Jet Star canceled multiple services between Adelaide and
dan Pasar, just hours after Mount l Tobi Lucky Lucky
fifteen hundred and eighty four meter high twin peak volcano

(40:27):
and the Touristar und of Flores erupted. The height of
the eruption columns believed to be approximately ten thousand meters
above the summit according to Indonesia's Volcanotry or Volcanology Agency.
Tourists have been worned to avoid the area, carrying out
any activities within at least seven kilometers of the volcanoes crater.
So who knows how long it will impact flights into

(40:50):
an out of Bali. So just checking. If you're thinking
of or about to fly it to Bali via Jetstar,
check your airline. Because lights between Adelaide and BALI have
been canceled after the massive volcano sprung into action. A
double two to three, double O, DOUBLEO is my number
to ring. We speak on all sorts of subjects here.

(41:11):
Anything that you'd like to canvas, doesn't have to be golf,
doesn't have to be flights elsewhere, it could be anything
at all. Well, Independent MLC Frank Pangalo is calling the
tougher penalties for motorists who drive recklessly with kids in
the vehicle. Frank joins us.

Speaker 11 (41:26):
Now, Frank, goodbody to you, Good morning Graham, and good
morning to your listeners.

Speaker 1 (41:30):
Now, this is an issue I think that you'd get
universal agreement, surely.

Speaker 11 (41:34):
Absolutely. It goes to a vote today and I'm hoping
that the government, the cross ben channels, the opposition will
support it simply because you know, like a lot of
people in the community, I'm disturbed at the number of
morons who had no qualms about getting behind the wheel
of a car and driving recklessly. Why there are kids

(41:57):
in the car and they could be under the influence
of drugs, that could be under the influence of alcohol,
or they could be just committing speeding offenses, going at
excessive speed and showing no consideration for the safety of
their children. So I think we need to start putting
a stop to this and incentivize these idiots from taking

(42:23):
this sort of reckless action while they're driving vehicles.

Speaker 1 (42:27):
So what sort of penalties would you like to see?

Speaker 11 (42:30):
Well, what I'm proposing to do, and they put they
quite tough. For excessive speed, there'll be a maximum of
three years imprisonment and an increase in the overall penalty
for subsequent offenses from two to three years imprisonment. Reckless
and dangerous driving a maximum of three years imprisonment, driving

(42:51):
under the influence a fine of not less than nineteen
hundred dollars and not more than two nine hundred dollars
or imprisonment of up to six months. And driving while
having prescribed concentration of alcohol, which is a category two offense,
a fine a find of about fifteen hundred dollars not
more than two two hundred, and a category three offense

(43:14):
a hefty fine of nineteen hundred or not more than
two thy nine hundred. And if you're driving with a
prescribed drug, a fine of not less than fifteen hundred
and not more than two thousand, two hundred. So I
think we need to send a message out there, Graham
that you know, when you're driving in the community and
you have children under the age of sixteen in your vehicle,

(43:36):
you need to obey not only the road rules but
also the laws of the state. And if you're caught,
you're going to have to pay the penalty.

Speaker 1 (43:45):
The amazing thing about this, Frank, that most of these
people that get caught with drugs or drink in the
body and with children in the car, they're their parents
or their relatives. So you're jeopardizing your kids, your sons
and daughters. It just doesn't make sense.

Speaker 11 (44:02):
It doesn't make sense. In fact, there was an incident
last year in nktim where a female motorist with two
children under sixteen years in the car blew six times
the legal blood alcohol limit, which he was pulled over
by police for using a mobile phone. And there was
another incident in regional South Australia where police and emergency

(44:23):
services were called to an incident where a driver spodyed
driving erratically with a young child in the rear and
a woman returning a blood alcohol reading of zero point
two to eight to zero and was later reported for
drink driving and aggravated driving without due care with children
in the car. So you know, it's just mindless and

(44:46):
reckless actions by people that should know better, adults, rather
than putting their children at risk.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
Do you think tougher penalties will have an impact.

Speaker 11 (44:56):
Though, Well, it helps. It helps to you know, take
the risk out of things if they know that they
could go to jail for it.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
So the next step, you're introducing legislation this week.

Speaker 11 (45:12):
Well, the legislation has been in for some time now.
I introduced it late last year, but I'm bringing it
to a vote. I hope everyone's had a lot of
time to consider it. I'm sure they have, and I'm
sure they'll come down and be supportive of the fact
that we need to keep children in vehicles safe and
also stop reckless adults from taking their children in vehicles

(45:34):
when you know they break in the law.

Speaker 1 (45:36):
It seems a reasonable request. Look, while I've got you
on the line, Frank Mark from Hall at Cove is asked,
please please ask Frank Pangello about the class action against
the dust at Seacliffe Park. What's happening there.

Speaker 11 (45:50):
Well, at this point, I'm not sure how farther the
residents have progressed with it. I know that there have
been discussions with the Quirry, the government, the government that's
been involved in it. I've spoke to the minister about
it some time ago, and more recently I've spoken to

(46:11):
residents and there have been negotiations going on. Things have
settled down a bit, of course because of the weather. However,
I know that the government is now taking an active
interest in trying to ensure that dust levels are contained
and are reduced. And you know they've got an interest
in this now because they announced a seventeen hundred home

(46:35):
sub development there and one of the state's largest home
builders is also going to probably build a lot of
homes in there. And they are also concerned about the
dusty year and they want that rectify. So there are
things happening at this point. They haven't sort of pulled
the trigger on legal action, but it is one of

(46:58):
the options that they have considered.

Speaker 1 (47:00):
Good on your Frank, and I hope your legislation gets through.

Speaker 11 (47:03):
Good on your grid.

Speaker 1 (47:04):
Thank you very much, Independent MLC Frank Pangalo, What are
your thoughts, folks? Tougher penalties for motors who drive recklessly
with kids in the vehicle from the text line on
the topic with the penalties with kids in the car.
I've seen this more than once, kids not wearing seat
belts and jumping around in the back of the car.
These kids would have been well under five. I'm wondering

(47:24):
if these immigrants who come to Australia to live feel
above the law. I'm not sure how we can stop this. Well,
it just has to be police, doesn't it. And let's
hope the police are very aware of people doing this
sort of thing and I'm sure if it is spotted
by the police, they will be fined. Do you agree though,
that tougher penalty should be imposed for motors who drive recklessly,

(47:44):
drive under the influence or whatever it is, or not
properly securing their kids in the car. Eight double two
to three double o double Oh Mark, good morning.

Speaker 12 (47:53):
Yeah, good morning. You know, just a couple of things.
I don't have a problem with type of penalties, but
I just wonder if we need more than that. We
need to understand why are they're turning to drugs or
alcohol and perhaps have mandatory you know, support. I can't
swing for these people to understand what pressures are they

(48:15):
facetee and how can we help them change their lifestyle,
And the other one is we have a problem this
day people paying their fine, So taper penalties doesn't necess
mean doesn't necessarily mean that they're going to pay their
fines either.

Speaker 1 (48:32):
Yeah, no, look I'm always wary of that. I think
there you make a good point. Mark just because you
impose tougher penalties is like making tougher penalties for crime.
The people committing the crimes. Are they thinking, oh, gee,
if I get caught, I'll be penalized in such and
such a way. So yeah, well, I think philosophically we
all agree there should be tougher penalties for parents who

(48:52):
totally disregard their children's safety. The point is will they
pay the fine? Will they be able to pay the fine?
And a lot of cases probably not. A double two
three double doublo is my number. A reminder that coming
up shortly, we will be speaking with Hank Youngen. It's

double two three double o double o. Paul, Good morning, Hi,
Hey Doan good Thanks.

Speaker 13 (50:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (50:12):
I was bringing up because I heard the conversation about
all these extra fines for parents and that, I mean,
there's a lot of revenue raising going on, but the
fact is parents should be responsible, that kids should come first,
and if you're not doing the right thing with your
kids in the car. Well, there's got to be some
sort of penalty or education. And I believe too that

(50:37):
not enough is being done about description drugs, I mean valiums, painkillers,
things like that. So there's a lot of people on
the roads driving around, you know, on pills and medications
which don't help the situation either. Plus the roads, I

(50:58):
mean we're speeding up low and down, speeding up. I
mean there's that many speed changes which don't help the situation.
And you know, I had a motorbike, a guy in
a motorbike crash in front of me because of the
stop starting and he had to lock up his brakes
and he swerved in front of me and come off.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (51:19):
But yeah, as far as parents scouring their kids, you know,
you've got to be responsible. I mean, you know your
birth these kids are your responsibility and do the right
thing by them. You don't have things in your system.

Speaker 9 (51:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (51:33):
No, you make some good points, Paul, but unfortunately a
lot of idiots out there who put themselves first last
in always and don't think of other people road users
and people in their own car. I mean, it just
shocks me that that story that Frank said about the
woman at Mitcham six times over the limit, alcohol in
the blood, kids in the back seat. Really, how could

(51:57):
you put your kids through that? You might have issues,
but don't take them on the road. Eight double two
three double double the number to ring Well. Hospital workers
across Southeastradia are taking strike action as part of their
campaign for fair pay and respect. They're warning that chronic
short staffing is directly fueling South Ofastradia's ambulance ramping crisis,
and they say it's a crisis that the premier has

(52:19):
committed to fix. Joining us now is United Workers Union
State Secretary Demi Nev Mattacos Demi, good morning.

Speaker 15 (52:26):
To you, Good morning Graham. Thank you for having me.

Speaker 1 (52:29):
Now, I know that your workers would not take action lightly,
so you've been driven to do this.

Speaker 15 (52:36):
No, they absolutely wouldn't. These are some of the lowest
paid workers working in our hospitals, cleaning our hospitals, sterilizing
sur surgical equipment, feeding patients and residents, caring for them,
transporting them, and supporting some of the most vulnerable people
living with disabilities in our state. They have been taking
escalating industrial action since February this year, with Glenside workers

(53:01):
in catering and cleaning walking off the job in a
few minutes at ten thirty and rare sterilization technicians at
two forty five pm today, joined by QEH workers at
ten am on Friday. They're not asking for a lot
from this state government, a fair living way, a secure job,
and an end to the chronic staff shortages in our

(53:22):
hospital's disability in age care services.

Speaker 1 (53:24):
I don't think anyone would be against you getting a
fair deal. But the first question people would ask, would
the health of patients or people be put at risk
because of this action?

Speaker 15 (53:34):
Absolutely not. UWU members take patient safety and care and
support with the utmost importance, and that's prevalent in all
of the actions that they've undertaken. They have worked with
state government to make sure that there are staff still
on shift who can deal with any urgent work and
keep the workflow going. But ultimately they are trying to

(53:56):
send a strong signal to this government that they are
they are undervaluing and disrespecting some of the lowest paid
workers who keep our hospitals and health services running. They
are currently paid twenty percent less than the lowest paid
workers in other states doing the same work. They simply

(54:18):
can't afford to continue in this work. They're running fifty
percent short routinely now in hospitals. Nobody wants to do
this work anymore, and indeed they're leaving in droves.

Speaker 1 (54:28):
Can you put an actual dollar value on what they're earning?

Speaker 15 (54:32):
Yeah, I absolutely can.

Speaker 3 (54:34):
So.

Speaker 15 (54:35):
A hospital cleaner, for example, is on one thousand and
ninety five dollars and ten cents per week in Queensland,
the next lowest paid they're on one three hundred and
twenty one dollars and twenty one cents. That's twenty point
six percent higher. In Victor they're earning two thousand and
forty dollars and ninety four cents. That's eighty ste double, Yeah,

(54:58):
virtually double. Insteaation it's ninety five percent more, almost double.

Speaker 1 (55:04):
So what has been the response. I mean, you've obviously
made this representation to the government. What are they saying
in return? And reply?

Speaker 15 (55:12):
Four percent? Graham, four percent or easily percent. This is
not going to fix our health crisis. If Premier Peter mallanowskis,
and I take him at his word, is serious about
fixing the health crisis in this state, an ambulance ramping
then twenty five percent is the minimum that we can

(55:33):
expect out of this. It's the cheapest and easiest way
to fix this health crisis. If there's nobody in an
emergency department to clean a hospital cubicle, then you can't
bring a new patient in. If there's nobody in a
ward who can clean a hospital bed, you can't move

(55:54):
a patient into emergency and admit them into the hospital
if there's nobody there to transport them. Just so many
inbuilt delays that are leading to this bed block.

Speaker 1 (56:03):
Look, Demi, we can understand your frustration. Nobody wants to
see industrial action, particularly in the health sector. But I
think you've certainly got a reasonable case, Demi. They've matter

Hank Youngen, Hank good morning to you. Good to chat.

Speaker 16 (56:44):
Oh, good morning, it's a pleasure.

Speaker 1 (56:45):
Yeah. How have things been going with Sanderlink over the
past six months or so?

Speaker 15 (56:51):
Oh?

Speaker 16 (56:51):
Well, look, I guess really the most important thing is
that we've made big strides in relation to our service delivery.
We're in a much better place position now than we
were some time ago. Call wait times are trending down.
There's still not where we'd like them to be ultimately,
but at least more people are getting through, and they're

(57:13):
getting through a little bit faster.

Speaker 1 (57:15):
And what is the general thrust? I mean, I know
there are myriad questions that they would ask, but what
is the general theme?

Speaker 17 (57:23):
Oh?

Speaker 16 (57:23):
Look, you know, when you're dealing with something like one
million interactions a week, it's pretty hard to summarize it.
But generally people are ringing up. Often it's about you know,
their payments, providing us with updates on their information. For example,

(57:47):
they contact us to provide income updates, you know, to
report other information that we require what we and as
you know when I speak to you on air, you know,
what we'd love to do is have more people use
our online capability to do things like report their earnings

(58:09):
because that reduces our call demand, which makes us more
available to handle those sort of complex cases, you know,
because don't forget the people we're dealing with is not
just people that are receiving payments on a routine basis.
We also have mums in crisis, you know, women that

(58:30):
are subject to domestic violence with their kids because they
need support, advice and guidance. So you know, it's the
full gamut.

Speaker 1 (58:41):
Really, And you say that the online and I think
there's no question that it is a real benefit that
people can go online. But unfortunately there's a sector of
the community that feel intimidated and unsure about how to
go about going online. Is there any guidance for them?

Speaker 16 (58:59):
Never? True? Word spoken, And that's absolutely true, and we
recognize that, and that's why we do our best to
maintain our phone services for those people, those very people
who aren't able to use our online capability, and of
course that's why we will always provide face service through

(59:19):
our office network. But I guess my point is, if
you are able to and willing to use our online services,
then you can free up our call lines so that
those people that absolutely need to use them find it
a bit easier to get through we'll speaking and the
other thing, of course, is right now is a really

(59:41):
busy time for us? Yeah, sure, because we're approaching tax time.

Speaker 1 (59:45):
We'll go into that in a moment, Hank, if we could,
because we've got some callers coming through. And if you
have a question for Hank, you on Services Australia General
Manager eight double two three double double the numbered ring
suggest your call now, Ronda, you have a question, go ahead.

Speaker 18 (59:59):
Yes, thank you, Good morning, Hank. We last year we
had a problem with my husband's tension. Somebody had somehow
another hacked in through his account and took out a
loan or whatever it is, and he's been getting deductions.

Speaker 5 (01:00:17):
Now.

Speaker 18 (01:00:18):
I rang we raand we went down, we had an appointment,
we changed everything and it's still not sick. And every
three months I've got to ring him up again and
I put it on hold again for three months and
we get the payment and now we'll get it checked out.
How long does this take to do because this has
now been about eight months and I'm sitting on the

(01:00:39):
phone yesterday for three hours.

Speaker 16 (01:00:44):
Look, firstly, it's really unfortunate that your husband has been
scammed and the time it takes for us to resolve
It really depends on the complexity of the scam and
exactly what they perpetrate have done. As you can imagine,
often it is very, very difficult to investigate. However, having

(01:01:07):
said that, I would have expected us to do better
in terms of resolving your husband's payments and getting that
sorted on your behalf. Look, Ronda, what I'd like to
do for two reasons. I'd like you if you're happy
to provide your details to the producer, I can assure

(01:01:27):
you I'll get an expert to look into your case
and see why. Firstly, to absolutely get it resolved and
try and ensure that it never repeats again. And based
on what you're saying where we've attempted to resolve it
but not succeeded, let me just assure you I'll also

(01:01:47):
be asking for a report on this so that I
get some insight into what might have happened.

Speaker 1 (01:01:54):
Okay, roonder, Okay, Yeah, Well.

Speaker 18 (01:01:56):
The first door I started last August. Lady I spoke
to yesterday. She said, check on the sixteenth of September
to see if the pension is right.

Speaker 16 (01:02:06):
I mean, no, listen, as I said, someone will ring
you in the next day or two and they'll be
an expert on the issue and will help you resolve it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
There, Ronda, just hold the line and I'll put you
back to my producer and the issue will be resolved.
If you have a question for Hank, go on on
an eight double two three double double O is the
number to ring? Sean? Go ahead?

Speaker 19 (01:02:33):
How I am just inquiring. My mum's got to a
stage where she can't live in our family home on
her only bound. She's about to transition to a village setup,
but she's about to sell a family home. Will that
affect a pension going forward?

Speaker 16 (01:02:51):
Well? Look, really, depending on what decisions she makes, it
could have an effect on her pension. Look, what I'd
really encourage you to do before you make these sorts
of decisions about her future, because often families are forced
into making short term decisions with long term consequences. What

(01:03:16):
I'd really like you to do is ring our financial
information service. We call it FIZZ. This is a free
service and these people are specialists at giving you information
about what decisions you make and what the impact of

(01:03:37):
those decisions will be on your mother's future eligibility. Now,
there's a whole range of different scenarios here. You know,
it depends on the nature of the retirement or aged
facility she enters, whether she decides whether you as a
family decide on her behalf that she may need to

(01:03:58):
go into a nursing home. All of these are factors
that could affect her pension. So I really want you
to take my advice and contact the financial information service
and ask to have an appointment with a financial information
service officer. We call them fizzos because we're public servants.

(01:04:21):
Of course we use acronyms.

Speaker 1 (01:04:22):
Now.

Speaker 16 (01:04:22):
The number to ring to make an appointment is one
three two three double zero, and when prompted say financial
information service. That will then take you down a track
where you can make an appointment either over the phone
or face to face. They will commit the time to

(01:04:46):
walk you through all of the options and provide you
with relevant information.

Speaker 1 (01:04:52):
Choice.

Speaker 19 (01:04:52):
She's already She's fantastic, she's already made, she's already been
accepted into a nursing home setup. That'll probably happen in
about a month. So yeah, I'll get ahead of phone
this number and have a chat.

Speaker 1 (01:05:02):
Yeah, good on, Shan. Thanks You call eight double two
three double o double if you have a question of
Hank Young and get on the line now eight double
two three double o double. Oh David has called that number. David,
go ahead, yeah.

Speaker 20 (01:05:14):
Good morning. I was scared about quite a few months ago.
I went on the pitcher and retired eight months ago,
and eventually it was all paid back, which is which
is terrific. But what I would have thought is that
the money went out of out to a different account number. Now,
what I would like to think is surely there must

(01:05:35):
be a flag there in the computer system where all
of a sudden money has been lent out to a
different account number, a different BSB. I would have thought
that would have sort of been a flag. Let people know,
hang on a minute, Uh, that's that's incorrect. Stop going
out to the first's normal bank account, and that would
alleviate or stop a lot of these scams.

Speaker 16 (01:05:58):
Records thing is absolutely true. You know, this is a
very common form of scam, and regrettably someone has been
able to access your information in order to perpetrate the scam. Now,
the challenge for us, of course, is that every single
day we get tens of thousands of requests to change

(01:06:22):
bank account details, and the bulk of those, as you
can imagine, are legitimate because people do change their banking
arrangements all the time, so trying to flag a bank
account that just appears out of the blue is extraordinarily difficult.
Having said that, in the same way that perpetrators of

(01:06:43):
scams are getting smarter all the time, we have to
raise our ability in order to meet that challenge. And
let me assure you there are mechanisms behind the scenes.
I can't go into the details that do help us.
In many instances we see an alert and we're able

(01:07:06):
to intervene, but it's certainly not universal. You raise a
good point. Let's just say, you know, my general message
is you must be vigilant in terms of protecting your
own information and not providing it to anyone else, and
understand that this is actually a core priority for us

(01:07:28):
to protect our customers from scammers.

Speaker 20 (01:07:32):
Okay, da, it's just in closing, I just say that
pat on the back of the port Adelaide staff down there,
They've all been fantastic sits. I've retired and I've gone
in there many many times. The staff is terrific, so helpful.
So pattern the back for.

Speaker 1 (01:07:47):
Them excellence nicely, isn't positive feedback?

Speaker 16 (01:07:49):
Pank absolutely David, thank you for that, and I'll make
sure I'll give the port Adelaide manager a call and
just actually give it the recording of what you've had
to say. David, thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:08:04):
Yeah, thanks for you call. David. Before we go on
any further hank on the subject of scammers and hackers,
that must be making your work so much more difficult.

Speaker 16 (01:08:14):
Look, it certainly is, and you know it is an
absolute priority for us to protect our customers. Now often
you hear the term hack hacking, my accounts being hacked
thrown around. We have never had an instance where one
of our customers has been actually hacked. The scams all

(01:08:37):
occur because, unfortunately, one way or another, people inadvertently provide
information to scammers. So you know, I say, be vigilant.
The biggest thing to watch is never to click on
links or attachments in SMS, messages or emails. By links,

(01:08:58):
I mean highlight blue text that they want you to
click on. Never click on those, and we will never
send you an email an SMS which will have a
link in it. We will never do that. The other
thing to protect yourself is to use my Gov. Create
a my gov account if you already, if you don't

(01:09:20):
already have one, make sure you key it in yourself
my dot gov dot au, because again there are fake
MyGov sites. Key it in yourself, create a my gove
account if you don't already have one, and then link
it to centiling. Now, what that then means is that
if we need to communicate with you, we will send

(01:09:42):
an email to your MyGov inbox, which means it's behind
the protection of your past key and you can be
assured that it's genuinely for a mass.

Speaker 1 (01:09:54):
That sounds like good advice, and we might mention that
again before you go, you'd have a question for hang
on an eight double two three double o double O
before we take a bank break. Hank, I've got to
read this email out. It comes from Steve. He says, Hi, gg,
I hope you can read this out whilst Hank is
with you. I know public servants often cop a lot
of flack, and sometimes justifiably so. But I know someone
who has worked with Hank. She told me he is

(01:10:16):
a wonderful, caring person. This clearly comes through when we
hear him on radio. Well done, Hank, Well that's lovely.
Sorry to embarrass you behind that, but I thought you
deserve it.

Speaker 16 (01:10:30):
I want that message and I want to frame.

Speaker 8 (01:10:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:10:34):
I know that there's a lot of negativity that flows through,
but the Hank, it's most appreciated what you do. We'll
take a break and be back shortly. If you have
a question regarding Centerlink, social Security payments and the like.
Ring now eight double two three double ow five double
A Mornings with Graham, Goodings, and we have Hank Youngen
on the line to answer your questions, your Centerlink questions,

(01:10:56):
social services s anything that Hank can help you with.
He's more than happy to do so. Give him a
call right now A double two three double o, doublo
dem good morning, go ahead, Good morning.

Speaker 21 (01:11:07):
Graham and Hank. Hank, please don't ever retire. And yes
you may take that clipping and play it to the
powers to be.

Speaker 8 (01:11:14):
Hank.

Speaker 21 (01:11:15):
My husband's moves some money from an accumulative because he's
no longer working pension too for anuation sorry, into his account.
Does he need to let send Link know that even
though it's under the same bucket of what our cash
amount totals.

Speaker 16 (01:11:31):
Yes, Look, it is necessary for him to let us
know about that change because we need to have a
complete understanding of financial information because of course payments are
subject to the income and assets tests.

Speaker 21 (01:11:51):
But wouldn't it mean that it still means that you
still have the same amount of assets. It's just sitting
in a different bucket.

Speaker 16 (01:11:57):
Yeah, but it's a different bucket that we need to understand. Look,
it's a very straightforward way that he if he's got
a central link online account through my GVE, he can
very easily do that online or alternatively give us a call.

Speaker 21 (01:12:15):
Oh great, that's good. We don't have to get on
the phone. Fantastic news. Thanks Hank, appreciate you.

Speaker 1 (01:12:21):
Thanks to call deb height double two three double o double.
A question for Hank comes from John John.

Speaker 10 (01:12:27):
Go ahead, there you going, guys.

Speaker 1 (01:12:30):
Good.

Speaker 10 (01:12:32):
I applied for a pension. I reckon it was may
or June of last year, and I'm at the age
where I can get it, so there's no worries there.
I went in to send a link and I have

(01:12:53):
been monitoring, as per your suggestion, through the MyGov website
and I haven't heard anything. The other day I looked
on my governor that said something about notification has been
sent or an email has been sent. I've received nothing,

(01:13:13):
and as I said, it's nearly twelve months ago.

Speaker 16 (01:13:18):
Yeah, listen, John, what worries me is twelve months ago
that you lodged a claim. Now, it is possible that
sometimes it takes us that long to assess claims because
you know, if you've got complex financial arrangements or information

(01:13:38):
or financial arrangements that we need to verify. Often we're
held waiting by third party players, for example superassient funds,
et cetera. But John, what worries me is twelve months?
That seems an inordinately long time, especially since we've been

(01:13:58):
putting a real focus on clearing our backlocks, and there's
no doubt your claim must be one of those. John,
I'd like you to stay online so that you can
provide us with your details, and I'll allow it an
expert to contact you in the next day or two

(01:14:19):
so that we can see what needs to be done
in order to resolve your case.

Speaker 10 (01:14:24):
Brunnie, thanks very much.

Speaker 1 (01:14:25):
Good on, John, Hold the line up, put you back
to Patrick and he will take your details. A double
two to three double double the number if you have a
question for Hank Youngman. Hank, just from the text line,
my husband recently applied for the age pension. We are
very new to Centrelink and not interacted or have not
interacted with center Link for thirty five to forty years,

(01:14:46):
and really surprised about how confusing the whole process is.
The lack of information given in the paperwork received. There
is also an assumption that we should know how the
system works. We've also received confusing and quite misleading information
about what my husband is entitled to. We rang yesterday
to clarify this, and after over an hour on the phone,
we're told the information we had received was incorrect. We

(01:15:09):
are computer savvy, but struggle to find online information we
needed to fully understand the paperwork scent THNK. What would
you say to that?

Speaker 16 (01:15:19):
Well, Look, obviously this is an extremely unfortunate situation, and
I'm surprised that people aren't able to find the information
that they require on our website, especially if the inquirer
is computer savvy, because we go to a lot of

(01:15:42):
effort to ensure that the way in which our information
and our website is laid out is easy to follow
with plain English explanations. Look, it's a text message, so
there's nothing I can do to intervene directly in order
to try and help these people resolve the situation they're

(01:16:02):
faced with. So look, unless they want to contact your
with them so that we can contact them and talk
to them about the issues that they're that they're they're facing,
there's very little else that I can do without knowing

(01:16:25):
more information.

Speaker 1 (01:16:26):
So I don't have a name for the person who texted.
But if you're listening, if you ring up and speak
to my producer, leave your details and Hank, we'll see
what he can do to help sort it out. Hank.
With tax time coming up, people on Social Security, certain
sort of payments, how do they go about doing the
tax What sort of advice? What what pitfalls are there?

Speaker 16 (01:16:49):
Yeah, look, there's a couple of things piece of advice
I give. Firstly, not everyone that receives a Services Australia
payment is required to lodge a tax return. For example,
if you're on age pension maximum rate with no other income,
you obviously don't need to lodge a tax return. But

(01:17:10):
so the first thing I'd suggest is work out if
you need to lodge a tax return. If you're getting
a payment from Services Australia, if you're receiving family Tax
Benefit and or childcare subsidy, then you are most likely
required to lodge a tax return. To find out whether
or not you need to lodge a tax return again,

(01:17:31):
go to my guv my dot guv dot au and
search tax time. There's a lot of information there to
let you know whether or not you need to lodge
a tax return. Now, if you're receiving a Services Australia
payment and you do need to lodge a tax return,
my next piece of advice is if you can wait

(01:17:52):
until late July to submit your tax return. Why do
I say that because in the middle to late July,
the Tax Office actually pre populates your tax return with
Services Australia information. Most people that are working would be
familiar with this employer details, superannuation details, other income details

(01:18:17):
and Services Australia payments are all prepopulated for you, so
that all you need to do is just check that
it's all there and it avoids errors and you can
then lodge a tax return. So if you can afford
to wait until mid to late July, I recommend that now.
If not, if you need your tax return sooner than that,

(01:18:40):
then obviously you can get a Central Link payment summary
to enable you to lodge a tax return. But it
means you need to request a payment summary from us,
which you can do, and then once you've got that summary,
you need to transpose the information into your tax return.
That's why I suggest wait till late July.

Speaker 1 (01:19:00):
Excellent that if you get Godki going kick going.

Speaker 16 (01:19:03):
Sorry, I know there's a lot here, but look in
addition to that, if you're getting family tax benefit or
a childcare subsidy, then again different families have to take
different steps. And again I urge you to remember the
term tax time because if you go to the Services
Australia website and look up tax time, then we'll guide

(01:19:26):
you through what you need to do. And the key
thing that you need to do is go through what
we call balancing. Now. We pay family tax benefit and
childcare subsidy on the basis of income estimates that you
provide us over the course of the financial year, which
means that at the end of the financial year, we've
got to verify your actual income against the income estimates

(01:19:49):
that you've provided us and we do that through your
tax return. So that's why you've got to submit a
tax return, and what it means is if you've underdeclared
your income, you'll get a topper. If you've correctly declared
your income, it'll have nil impact. But if you've underdeclared
your income estimate over the year, then you may incur

(01:20:10):
a debt, which of course we'll need to recover.

Speaker 1 (01:20:13):
Hank, always great advice. Thanks so much for your time today.
I really appreciate it a pleasure anytime that Services Australia
General Manager Hank Youngen back after the News.

Speaker 3 (01:20:23):
Five double A Mornings with Gram Goodings.

Speaker 1 (01:20:27):
Hey past eleven five double A on this Wednesday morning.
Good morning to you if you've just joined us, Thanks
for dropping by. From the text line, it seems that
in say, we are the lowest paid in many sectors.
I personally know that allied health workers eg. Social workers etc.
Are the lowest paid in Australia. Why and Neil says,

(01:20:48):
I will come and clean hospitals for a grand a
week and no one will hire me at sixty three
years of age. The government she'ally embarrassed. Look after the
people that look after the community. No trouble passing a
pay rise of politicians, says An. Not everyone felt the
same way, And I'll go into that a little bit
later on. But right now there are new guidelines to

(01:21:09):
aid older ossies maintain their independence. Flinders University researchers have
launched new clinical guidelines that could reshape how age care
is delivered around US strata, with a strong focus on
restoring and maintaining independence for older adults. To tell us
about it, I welcome doctor Claire Goff from the Flinders
University Caring Futures Institute. Doctor. Good morning to you.

Speaker 22 (01:21:32):
Good morning Graham.

Speaker 23 (01:21:33):
How are you going.

Speaker 1 (01:21:33):
I'm very well. Thanks. Now tell us about this Restorative
Care Pathway clinical guidelines.

Speaker 22 (01:21:39):
Yes, so we've been working quite hard with the department
to bring together guidelines that are going to inform the
Restorative Care Pathway, which is a stream that will be
a component of the Support at Home program provided to
support older people living at home in the community. And

(01:22:00):
so these guidelines are really looking to maximize that ongoing
independence for older people, prevent or delay decline, so keeping
people in their own homes and looking at avoiding premature
entry to age care, but also increasing their quality of life.

(01:22:21):
So I suppose the issues that we've had previously is
that delivering care hasn't been streamlined, and these guidelines and
this pathway is hopefully going to mean that everybody receives
the best care that they possibly can. But it's streamlines
things so that people know what to expect and we've
got standards that providers.

Speaker 16 (01:22:43):
Need to follow.

Speaker 1 (01:22:45):
So how is restorative care different from traditional age care models?

Speaker 22 (01:22:50):
Yeah, so restorative care is really moving away from those
traditional old school feelings of we receive care and someone
does something for us. So someone comes into our house
and does the cleaning for us. So restorative care the
big difference is that in this approach, we're looking at

(01:23:10):
doing with the individual, not doing for them. And that
approach is going to mean that we're not actually taking
any functional or cognitive capabilities away from people, but we're
supporting them to maintain that ability or improve them over
a longer period.

Speaker 1 (01:23:30):
So this is a shift to sort of a paradigm
shift or just a sort of a progression.

Speaker 22 (01:23:36):
Yeah, I think it's more of a shift. We need
to move away from the old roles of you know,
being weighted on and actually understand that for our age
care systems to cope with an increasing aging population, we
don't have the workforce to be able to look after
everyone with this system. And so this is a real development.

(01:23:57):
It's something that's being used over a lot more readily,
and we are now picking up these approaches. But it's
I think it's great that Australia is the first to
lay out these clinical guidelines and they are specific to
us and to older Australians, which is a real great
sort of stepping stone in the right direction to improve

(01:24:20):
care delivery.

Speaker 23 (01:24:21):
Here for older people.

Speaker 1 (01:24:23):
You talk about doing with not doing for Can you
explain that, how does that look like in practice?

Speaker 22 (01:24:29):
Yeah, So this is where we might get a little
bit of pushback initially in with the old systems and
our old care. Older people might expect for someone to
come in and do their cleaning for them and do
their gardening for them, whereas this approach is we actually
want to get people to do the mopping and do

(01:24:52):
the sweeping because functionally there are benefits to that. There
are functional benefits to strength and balance, but also so
maintaining that independence to be able to do it on
our own. And that's where I think as clinicians we
might get a little bit of pushback in the initial
part because people are going to be paying for these services.

(01:25:14):
But I think by coming in and I know as
helpful family members and I'm sure I've done it. You know,
sit there and I'll get the cup of tea and
sit there and I'll do that for you. Is the
caring approach that we've got, and we need to shift
it into. By caring, I'm actually doing something with and

(01:25:34):
ensuring that older people are empowered and independent rather than
taking over and you know, almost removing some of those abilities.

Speaker 1 (01:25:43):
And I think older people would appreciate that because instead
of being pampered and treated like the old and infirm,
as long as they're able to do that, I think
they'd welcome that initiative.

Speaker 22 (01:25:53):
Yeah, exactly right. And that's where I think that we're
going to rely on the future on a lot of
peer support from older per and to older persons of
different abilities and backgrounds. And also that volunteer community is
going to be very important to make sure that older
people stay part of the community and don't become socially

(01:26:14):
isolated and cut off. And that's a whole different component
of where this restorative care and connection to community ongoing
is going to be very important.

Speaker 1 (01:26:25):
You say the restorative care guidelines can help reduce hospital admissions, how.

Speaker 22 (01:26:29):
Would that be, Well, what we are looking to avoid
is unneces unnecessary hospital admission. So by providing low level
restorative care, so it's going to be low intensive rehabilitation
from the multidisciplinary team. What we're hoping is is that

(01:26:52):
people will receive physiotherapy, occupational therapy, exercise, physiology, and by
having people coming to see them regularly and supporting them
instead of them declining to a level where they have
to go into hospital to seek medical care. Interventions are
going to be more proactive rather than reactive, and so

(01:27:14):
that's where we are going to hopefully prevent that influx
into the acute hospital healthcare systems.

Speaker 1 (01:27:22):
And what role does mental well being play and restorative care, Yeah.

Speaker 23 (01:27:27):
A huge part.

Speaker 22 (01:27:28):
So within the guidelines, we've actually got a section that
is specific to mental well being and a lot of
the research and the evidence looks at how cognitive rehabilitation
can actually be a really good component there. But that
comes down to it's all very much into related in

(01:27:49):
that it's not just the function or the social or
the cognitive, but it's making sure that we're supporting mental
health and depression and preventing those you know, of social
isolation to ensure that that quality of life is better overall.
So it's more of a holistic role, which is why
restorative care can sometimes be difficult to measure and define.

Speaker 1 (01:28:13):
Now the government's introducing its new supported home program, I
think it's in November. How are your guidelines going to
integrate with that?

Speaker 22 (01:28:21):
So these guidelines are specific to one of the streams
of that support at home and package. So there are
three streams. One of them is assistive technology, the other
is talliative care, and ours is the restorative care. So
these guidelines are specific to guide providers into preparing and

(01:28:46):
delivering those that care in the best possible way. And
so the recommendations from these clinical guidelines are that really
our community age care providers need to bring together a
multidisciplinary team who are going to be capable and equipped
with the skills to be able to provide comprehensive restorative

(01:29:09):
care rather than dipping in in silos and you know,
the dietrists just doing their job and the nurse just
doing their job. We're going to need a bigger range
of interventions. But then also that communication is going to
be improved and streamlined in that process, so it's going

(01:29:29):
to hopefully have a really big input. But it's really
nice that we've got something that everyone can go to
to streamline these services rather than individual providers trying to
work out how to do it and starting from scratch.

Speaker 1 (01:29:47):
Doctor clear Goffer, thanks for input today, great to chat.

Speaker 22 (01:29:50):
Thanks so much for having me, Graham, thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:29:52):
Send as University researchers supporting Old Australians new guidelines to
aid old Aussies maintain their independence. What are your thoughts?
Love the hear them eight double two to three double
double if you want to make a call.

Speaker 3 (01:30:04):

Speaker 10 (01:30:07):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (01:30:08):
We discuss all sorts of matters on this show. One
I'm going to tell you about. In just a moment
from the text line, Helkie says it is Alberaneze's fault
that he did not get a meeting with Trump. He's
been very curt and upity to Trump's assistance. His refusal
to attend to our national security means the US may
well leave us high and dry in any emergency. But

(01:30:30):
easy is too big for his boots, Peter says. Actually,
Stavros says, Gig, I'm sick and tired of bloody unions
using the excuse of their workers would get paid more
if they were interstate. Well, get them to move into state.
See how much that costs bloody unions. Stavs. Stavros, Stavros,
you're not serious. I know you're not serious. You couldn't

(01:30:51):
be the worker's plight that we're talking about. Say, health
workers the lowest paid in Australia, to suggest they should
move to other states is ridiculous. Same work, same at
least equivalent pay. To see that they're getting twenty percent less,
in fact, way more less than other workers. And no
wonder you can't get enough workers in the health sector

(01:31:14):
because there's grossly underpaid and they're looking for They've been
offered four percent, which is totally inadequate. So more power
of the union for trying to get a better deal
for them. So Stavros, there you go. Well to the
big issue of the day when it comes to toilet paper.
Are you an over or an under aficionado? Now, the

(01:31:37):
position of a toilet paper roll, well it may seem innocuous,
but toilet paper trustees have long been embroiled in a
heated debate over the proper angle of the next square. Now,
there are two types of people in the world, the
over devotees who hang the role. So the wiper's face
in the user and the under fans who position it
so it's closer to the wall. Well, thankfully a professional

(01:31:57):
has finally closed the book on the matter. A whopping
to two two hundred and fifty years since the hygiene
tool's invention. What do we do before that? Beggars belief.
Primrose Freestone, professor of clinical microbiology at the UK's University
of Leicester, says the somewhat counterintuitive under position is more
hygienic and effective. Despite the original eighteen hundred's patent showing

(01:32:19):
the role in the more natural seeming over orientation. For
the under position, there is less likely to be whole
roll contamination. Freestone says it's because handling of the toilet
roll from the over position requires the user to employ
two hands to extract a square. Who uses just a square?

Speaker 3 (01:32:41):
Seriously a square?

Speaker 1 (01:32:44):
Right? Anyway, it requires the user to employ two hands
to extract a square after doing one's business. Per the microbiologist,
one hand is used to hold the role in place
so it doesn't keep spinning forward and depositing too much paper,
while the other takes the next segment. On the other hand,
the under method allows bathroom users to pin the sheets

(01:33:05):
against the toilet wall and tear them off with the
same mit without having to touch the exterior of the roll.
By only using one hand to harvest a square, the
odds of transferring hand bacteria to the toilet tissue and
perhaps vice versa, are reduced. Well, I've learned something today,
Which are you are over or under? According to the research,

(01:33:27):
if someone who has to wipe, say once, and the
fecal matter is soaked through the layers of toilet paper
and makes hand contact, the presumably right hand did the
wiping will likely be contaminated, then the right hand may
contaminate anything it touches. As the toilet user reaches, oh,
this is just getting terrible anyway, Which are you are

(01:33:48):
over or under when it comes to toilet paper or
doesn't it matter? And I just can't believe using one square?
Using one square? Back to Anthony Albanezie not meeting up
with the president, this is what Opposition leader Susan Lee
had to say.

Speaker 24 (01:34:06):
It is to the detriment of Australia that the meeting
has not been achieved. There are important issues that we
need as a country in our national interest to seek
reassurance from the US about of course, orcus and protection
from tariffs.

Speaker 1 (01:34:23):
That was Susan Lee, the opposition leader. Now acting Prime
Minister Richard Miles and Treasurer Jim Charmers have sprung to
their Prime Minister's defense.

Speaker 17 (01:34:35):
Clearly understandable that the US President would be returning to Washington,
d C.

Speaker 3 (01:34:40):
To deal with that.

Speaker 17 (01:34:42):
We shouldn't be reading more into it than that.

Speaker 22 (01:34:44):
But I don't think it's especially surprising.

Speaker 17 (01:34:46):
I do think it's understandable given events that are unfolding.

Speaker 1 (01:34:50):
You wonder at this stage now the history between Australia
and the US. Our ambassador to the US is Kevin Rudd,
who had some fairly unpleasant things to say about Donald
Trump not thinking for a second that he'd be reinstated
as president for a second term, and he was, And

(01:35:11):
yet Kevin Rudd remains our ambassador. Now, whatever you think
of Donald Trump, I don't think you would suggest he
is a very forgiving soul. And whenever he's been criticized,
or his attitudes and policies are criticized, he is very
quick to go on the attack. So would he forgive
and forget what Kevin run had to say? Would he

(01:35:32):
forgive and forget? In fact, what the Prime Minister Anthony
Albertezi has had to say, he had some rather negative
things to say. I cannot believe for a second that
Donald Trump would have forgotten them. In politics, you need
to be very very careful what you say up in
the Adade Hills. Is David morning, David, good morning.

Speaker 13 (01:35:51):
I'd like to touch on one of these stories if
you touched on first thing, which was the child left
in a school bus.

Speaker 1 (01:35:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:35:57):
Now, I part time major school bus charter companies because
they often know somebody gets sick and they need somebody
that can just call in last minute. The prosiegers involved
with being a school bus driver are dense and rigorous,
as they should be the two companies I work for,

(01:36:19):
if I didn't complete the procedure, which amongst other things,
involved walking to the back of the bus, visually inspecting
all the way up, all the way back at the
beginning and end of every shift, and there are more
cameras on that bus than there are an episode of
Big Brother. If I failed to do that, I would

(01:36:40):
never get to work in the industry again. I am
absolutely horrified that whatever company allowed this to occur within
their business needs to look at their prosigures because every
company I've ever worked for in transit has dense literature,

(01:37:00):
especially when it comes to caring for minors, and like,
I have to have all kinds of police checks and
this and that to be aloud and quite rightfully to
work in the industry. I'm just horrified. Know that if
your kid is hopping on a bus, you know ninety buses,
the child needs to tap their student ID, which gets
logged on the bus's computer when they get off of

(01:37:23):
the bus. They tap off. It tells me that there
are any kids left on the role or not. And
I am then expected to visually inspect the bus after
every movement, and failure to do so would be the
end of my career. So you know, they need to
stare at this business and go where is your procedure?

(01:37:44):
Because ninety nine point of charter companies have this right.

Speaker 1 (01:37:50):
Good on you, David, thanks for the input, and you've
been in that situation driving a bus. But it does
seem pretty basic stuff. Doesn't you get to the end
of the line. Twenty five kids get on, count them off,
twenty five they check in. As David said, the more
sophisticated way or the minimum as well, as you go
down every seat, and maybe you're not looking for kids

(01:38:13):
or passengers that have gone to sleep, but you're looking
for phones that have been left, bags that have been left.
You just check it and surely you would see someone
curled up asleep, so they overlook this. And I'm sorry
all the amount of apologies from the bus company. I
mean this ended well, it didn't end in any disaster
or any shock or outrage, but well maybe outrage, but

(01:38:34):
it really shouldn't have happened. Five Double A Mornings with
Graham Goodings and it's the final half hour of the show.
Still time for you to give us a call, have
a chat, and we still have tickets to give away
to the Best of Essay which is on Friday night.
Can't wait. Should be good. I'll give you the cuter call,

(01:38:54):
but not just yet. Deb says, thanks Graham for the
laugh y Loo paper. They say we should learn or
learn one new thing each day, and someone else says
one square perish. The thought to scrunch is to be
free of worry and concern. Scrunch away. Maybe that's a
subject for another day. You were a scruncher or a
folder toilet paper? You know we all like to deny

(01:39:17):
it and pooh who it? But it's a reality in life.
You can't live without it. Well, southa Strada led the
revival in the Australia movie industry. What would it be
fifty or sixty years ago? Southa Stone Film Corporation flew
the flag for our nation and we've continued to punch
well above our weight when it comes to movies and TV.
So some exciting news with My Brilliant Career. That was

(01:39:41):
a movie made way back then, I think in the
late seventies, early eighties and it came from a novel. Well,
Netflix has commissioned a mini series on My Brilliant Career
and it's going to be made or is being made
here in Adelaide. Pretty exciting news. And joining us to
talk about it is Say Film Corporation, C. Crazer Kate,

(01:40:02):
good morning.

Speaker 23 (01:40:03):
To you, Good morning Graham.

Speaker 1 (01:40:05):
This is really exciting but not surprising. I mean, we
do it better than just about anyone. That we have
the resources, we have the people, and now we've got
a big deal with Netflix.

Speaker 23 (01:40:15):
We absolutely do. And it's so everything that you say.
You know that we've been doing this for some time,
we've actually just this year had our fiftieth anniversary of
our first film as the SFC that the SFC supported
Sunday Too Far Away. Oh right, Yes, We've got the
fiftieth anniversary of Picnicer Hanging Rock coming up this year,
which is the second film that we supported. But now

(01:40:37):
fifty three years on, we continue to support the most
iconic and important Australian stories that are being told on
our screens. And My Brilliant Career was announced today by Netflix.
It's been filmed in South Australia. It's a new TV
series adaptation of the book that people will remember from

(01:41:00):
Miles Franklin and it's just such an important and iconic
and beloved Australian story that's now going to find a
whole new generation of fans in Australia but also globally
because this new series will go out all around the
world and be we're sure one of Netflix's biggest, biggest
new shows when that goes out. So it's incredibly.

Speaker 1 (01:41:22):
Exciting to sell. When Netflix do something, they do it well.
I mean they big budget and this is obviously a
big budget. It's going to mean a lot for the
economy and lots of people who work in the industry
are going to benefit mine absolutely.

Speaker 23 (01:41:37):
So this new series is actually the biggest economic investment
by TV series that we've had in South Australia. So
the show is spending seventeen million dollars in our state
and that will have a flow on effect not only
to the two hundred and sixty small businesses that are
going to benefit directly from that, but also to all

(01:41:59):
of this flyers. So it has this huge flow on
right throughout the whole state economy. And you know, just
in terms of jobs, this show is creating four hundred
and fifty South Australian jobs. So it's enormously beneficial in
it from an economic point of view, but also obviously
on the cultural side with the importance of us telling

(01:42:20):
our stories as Australians to the world. So it really
manages to achieve both, which is incredibly exciting.

Speaker 1 (01:42:28):
We certainly have an international reputation because we were pretty
much can do I mean, no fuss, you want it done,
we can do it, and we can do it as
well as anyone in the world.

Speaker 18 (01:42:39):
We really can.

Speaker 23 (01:42:39):
I mean, look, we are demonstrating this time and time
again and we have right from the very first day
of the safc's time and the screen industry those early
days in South Australia and we continue to do that.
We have absolutely world class crews and carts and the
people that work on these productions year round are seriously
producing are the best content in the world. And our

(01:43:01):
artistry and the technical skills and the logistical skills and
the you know, the trades that these people perform. They're
being sought out by company from all over Australia and
all over the world, and Netflix and the producers have
really chosen South Australia for this production because of that,

(01:43:22):
and because of our fantastic and very beautiful locations, which
you know, full credit to the people of South Australia.
They are very welcoming to these shows when they come
and when they film here, and it really does make
people want to make work here. So it's something everyone
can be proud of. I think is the you know,
the welcoming nature that we have here, the easiness of

(01:43:44):
getting around, but also the hugely high standard of the
work that South Australian people do in this industry.

Speaker 1 (01:43:52):
So where will my brilliant career be shot.

Speaker 23 (01:43:55):
It will be filmed at the Adelaide Studios and Glenside,
which is operated by the SAFC. It's a you know,
with the support of the state government, so we couldn't
do this without their support. And the Adelaide Studios is
a really important part of that is having a venue
which is specific for productions of film and television. And

(01:44:17):
as well as that, the locations they're using include locations
around Adelaide, the Barossa Valley, South Australia's southeast, so they
really are going far and wide to capture you know,
beautiful locations, some of which have never been seen on
screen before. So this is something that the producers and
Netflix are very excited about. So we're looking forward to

(01:44:40):
bringing my brilliant career out to lots of the regions
around South.

Speaker 1 (01:44:44):
Australia and it's certainly going to be a showcase of
the state.

Speaker 23 (01:44:49):
Absolutely, So one of the things that we'll shine on
the screen is the locations and the beautiful and you know,
not just landscapes but also built location so and there's
some work being done by the production to actually invest
in the you know, the upkeep of these properties. So
I think that's a really exciting story as well. So

(01:45:12):
this is some of the ways that productions will contribute
to long lasting impacts in the state. Another way that
they do that is by training and upskilling talent. So
people in the South Australians are getting the chance to
work with some of the people who are you know,
absolutely specialists in their field in the in the in

(01:45:32):
terms of the type of craft skills that are being
used on this on this project, and it gives South
Australians a chance to learn from the best, upskill and
be you know, even furthering their their own career trajectory
and then having the evidence of having worked on this

(01:45:53):
show will help them to get further employment as well.
So it's a lot of opportunity for the the South
Australian people working on the show.

Speaker 1 (01:46:02):
So what role is the Film Corporation play and the
whole production So the role.

Speaker 23 (01:46:07):
That we play is to essentially attract and enable a
whole pipeline of production work across the year, and we
do that to achieve the employment outcomes for the sector.
But also I suppose the marketing and championing of South
Australia and what we've got to offer here we also

(01:46:28):
support with a financial contribution. So generally we're supporting about
ten percent of what gets spent in the state, and
the rest of the ninety percent that is getting spent
in the state is coming from outside. So in this case,
it's coming from Netflix and the federal government through their
program of supporting screen projects. So you know, we're attracting

(01:46:51):
all of that money into the state as well when
we support a show like this, And the other role
that we play is to support through the oration of
Adelaide Studios, and we also have a role to play
in supporting workforce development as well.

Speaker 1 (01:47:05):
I don't want to be greedy, Kate, but are any
other big productions in the pipeline.

Speaker 23 (01:47:09):
We've just announced a fantastic feature film from South Australian
writer director Tilda cobm Harvey, who people might have seen
recently in Apple Cider Vinegar. Tilda's actually been nominated for
a logo I.

Speaker 7 (01:47:26):
Believe for that one.

Speaker 23 (01:47:26):
So that's fantastic for Tilda. And she's actually making her
writing and directing debut with her new Peach film. At
the SAFC announced support for so that one's going to
be kicking off soon and I'm just trying to think
what else we've got coming up. We've got our ABC
Pipeline partnership which has got some new projects which we're

(01:47:49):
going to be announcing very soon, so we'll make sure
to keep you in the five double A listeners informed
on that one as well, But there's certainly a lot
happening here.

Speaker 13 (01:47:57):
Is a very exciting.

Speaker 23 (01:47:58):
Time, wonderful news Australian industry.

Speaker 1 (01:48:01):
Excellent, Kate, keep up the great work.

Speaker 23 (01:48:03):
Thanks for lot Graham, look.

Speaker 1 (01:48:04):
Forward to the production that's SFC South Australian Film Corporation
CE Kate Crozer with the exciting news that Netflix has
commissioned a series of My Brilliant Career, a book that
became a movie and it was one of the early
productions of the Film Corporation back in the late seventies.

(01:48:24):
It was a huge hit. Now it's being made into
a mini series by Netflix. As such, you will get
international coverage, international exposure. Netflix don't do things by half,
so it will be a high quality production providing so
much work for South Australians because we do it as
well or if not better than anybody else. So we're
looking forward to looking out for that. My Brilliant Career.

(01:48:47):
What are your thoughts eight double two three double do
you remember the original movie. If you do give us
a call, let us know what you think. Eight double
two three double doublo is the number five double A.
Mornings with Graham Goodings still got those Best of South
Astralia tickets to give away, but before that, joining me
in the studio the one the only leaf forest.

Speaker 17 (01:49:07):
Personal question for you. I'm trying to bring as to
you each and every week if I can. Did you
have a struggle with your weight as a kid?

Speaker 1 (01:49:14):
You're looking at me now, do you know I'm not
you look I was skinny as a rake, not deliberately,
but are just there?

Speaker 17 (01:49:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:49:22):
Same because probably we were a bit more active than
kids are today.

Speaker 17 (01:49:26):
Once I stopped playing sport, that's when I chunked it
on a little bit. And you have sickness and illness
and everything that applies. But did you see the story
the fact that kids are taking a zempic.

Speaker 1 (01:49:36):
That horrifies me, worries me that adults take it.

Speaker 17 (01:49:39):
From eleven kids to about one hundred and eleven kids
in South Australia now taking through the rules weight here.
So we'll discuss that on the show today. We're also
going to discuss and you'll like this one being a
sports fan. Do you think you should be able to
buy state of origin jumpers? Would you like to own
a South Australian state of origin jumper. I'm not a.

Speaker 1 (01:50:00):
Collector of things like that, but yeah, I suppose I would.

Speaker 17 (01:50:03):
Can you buy things that you need to earn? Should
you be able to buy a baggy green?

Speaker 1 (01:50:10):
No you shouldn't. No, No, I can delineate there. But
with footy jumpers it's a bit different because kids wear them,
are used to wear them a footy jumpers.

Speaker 17 (01:50:17):
I can't buy the South Australian state jumper, but you
can now buy the Big V. Yesterday was the thirtieth
anniversary Remember ninety five when Ted Whitten ran around or
drove around the oval? Yeah, very thirtieth anniversary of that.
So the AFL store and now selling the Big V jumper,
you can buy it.

Speaker 1 (01:50:34):
Yeah, I see growing up in Victoria the Big V was.
You know, I'm with the Oli Grail. I'm with you
as as the South of stadi and jumper is.

Speaker 17 (01:50:42):
But you can buy a soccer oo's top, you could
buy a boomer's top. You could buy a crow's jersey
or a port Adelaid jumper if you like, you haven't
earned the cricket stuff cricket, but there are some I
think that are kind of off limits. Yeah, part of
me thinks I remember when the Crows before your time
on the board. I think when they tried to run
with the state jumpers a clash jumper, when Scott Thompson

(01:51:02):
presented at once at the Oval. It was a good
looking jumper, great looking up, good looking, a little bit
controversial at the time. I remember we took calls for
about a month on it on the Sports Show. So
I'll discussed that today because yeah, the Big V is
now available in the stores.

Speaker 1 (01:51:15):
It sort of diminishes it a little, doesn't it. I mean,
mind you, when does the Big V get seen and
not in not at the highest levels of foot any longer, unfortunate.

Speaker 17 (01:51:23):
In your levels of football. And again I don't want
to aid you. You're you're around a little before my time.
Richard Rocksbury is going to be on the show today
because he is playing joby Yoki Peterson in a new
Stand documentary. So I didn't really live the jobey Yoki
Peterson political lifestyle, but I'm sure you did.

Speaker 1 (01:51:42):
Give me a line about Joe he would he would
say when he had to give a press conference. He
would say, I'm going out to feed the chucks, right,
and you tell, oh, yeah, yeah, don't don't you you
don't you let me worry about that, and he came
across as a bit simple. He was as sharp as attack,
absolutely sharp as attack. And his wife flow Blki Peterson

(01:52:04):
was famous for Pumpkins Gones.

Speaker 17 (01:52:06):
So in the documentary they sort of talk about he
was like the Australian version of Trump through the seventies
and the eighties, super popular, but you're always in Queensland
and queens but you had a little part of it
going hmmm. Is all of this above board?

Speaker 1 (01:52:22):
He was very, very slightly to the right of Attila
the Hunt, but he was for a journalist, he was
great copy. Every time he opened his mouth. Yep, he
had something to say. That would be a really great docker,
I think, but.

Speaker 17 (01:52:36):
That's on standards of next week. Richard Roxborough is playing
Joe Bilki Peterson in the documentary, so he will join
us as well.

Speaker 1 (01:52:41):
He'd be hard. Richard Roxbury is a great act in
that question. But if you're familiar with Joe, yep, very
hard to capture.

Speaker 17 (01:52:49):
I would have thought he's got he's got the he's
trying to do the voice, or he's got the accent
down somewhat.

Speaker 1 (01:52:53):
He was a living character to you know, you sort
of seize people and say they're not real, they're a character.

Speaker 17 (01:52:58):
That was because I was born mid seventy so when
I'm paying attention, I guess through the eighties because I
remember the Joe for PM campaign. Yes once, right age, Yeah, yeah,
but I don't really know the story of the Joe
Bioki Peters and political journey. So I'm sure people that
love their Australian politics will enjoy this.

Speaker 1 (01:53:14):
There was a Jerrymander in Queensland. I think he ruled
the state with about twenty percent of the vein. Oh really,
he kept he kept shuffling the seats around. Yes, so
you know if a seat looked like going to the
Libs or Labor, he would sort of rearrange the boundaries.

Speaker 17 (01:53:30):
Well, he just kept winning. I was looking at the
years when when.

Speaker 1 (01:53:34):
But they did well, not everyone loved him in Queensland,
but enough loved him enough. Yeah, but no, it's an
amazing story. I'll look forward to that.

Speaker 17 (01:53:41):
So that's coming up after one o'clock.

Speaker 1 (01:53:42):
Good on your leaf, Thanks, right, I think we went
not talking footy because we're not playing this week, and
you are. You cut the weekend off here, we won't lose.

Speaker 17 (01:53:50):
Wo Carden did their best to last week.

Speaker 1 (01:53:53):
That's Leif Forrester, who lives and breathed the blues, he
has the blues with the blues often just about time
to go. It is take take your dog to work
day on Friday? So do you do that? It's your
employer happy for you to take your dog to work.
Is it a good idea? It is a good concept.
We might talk about that. Probably don't have all that

(01:54:14):
much time today to do that. Good morning, mister Goodings.
President Trump said what other countries charge us, we will
charge them in tariffs. It's time to stop the negative
portrayal of the American president going a dean? Are we
portraying as negative? I just think we're putting out there
what he is doing. He is doing what he thinks
is best for the US. Whether in the long run

(01:54:35):
that is the best I guess we'll find out. Now
here's a very important message. Neville says, no matter which
side of the paper is facing the wall, the job's
not done or finished till the paperwork is done, and
someone Carvis send in a picture. High Graham, if you're
a person that needs more than one square, maybe you

(01:54:55):
could try this. And there's a picture of a toilet
roll attached to the wall and it says save paper,
use both sides. I must say I was absolutely stunned
that was suggested that people use a square. Is there
anybody that could possibly use a square? Morning Graham. When
I was working as a cleaner, I was taught toilet

(01:55:16):
paper was to be put over, not under. Thank you
John for that, Hi Graham. Why can't Albow simply extend
his time away and make an appointment to see Trump.
He's only next door for goodness sake. I'm an over user.
To move on to another subject. Having the paper run
down the wall could get it dusty. Thank you for that. Ian.
That is a very contentious issue which way you run

(01:55:37):
your toilet paper, Morning Graham. Trump for against nothing, Just
consider this. He has pushed the meeting to line Albow
up at a later date. The US is not happy
with our stance on free speech, our stance on Israel,
and our GDP spend on defense. That is why Albow
hasn't gone over to see Trump. He's petrified over a
possible dressing down in the Oval Office on the World's Day.

(01:56:00):
Would be interesting, wouldn't it. I totally believe that Donald
Trump can have his views of world leaders and what
he had to say with Vladimir Elenski, but I believe
that should have been done behind closed doors, not for
the public to see. Graham, all these people don't want
the golf course upgraded and don't want progress. Ask them

(01:56:21):
what they would do to inject eighty million dollars into
essay like the liv golf does. This means jobs, people
paying more tax, companies selling their food to cafes, etc.
Put aside the nasty things Albo and Rudd have said
about Trump in the past. Albau hasn't done enough to
meet with the US president, who has been in power

(01:56:41):
for six months. But in that whole time, Albo has
not once traveled to the US to even try to
discuss or negotiate anything with the US president. And Dev
said thanks for the loop paper. Well, not thanks for
the low paper, but thanks for the low paper story.
Good morning, it's Graham taking business feedback on the restorative

(01:57:01):
care talk. Well, if anyone had found up about it,
more than happy to do that, but nobody found up.
So maybe, Pauline, if you want to talk about the
restorative care, tomorrow will be the time to do it,
because we are pretty much out of time today, just
time for a few texts. Most people want to be
independent and don't apply for help until they really can't

(01:57:23):
look after themselves or their house on their own. So
I can't see who this is for. Well, yeah, okay,
I can see real benefit in it myself. It's all
an easiest fault that he did not get a meeting
with Trump. He's been very curt and uppity to Trump's assistance.
His refusal to attend our national security means the US
may well leave us high and dry in any emergency.

(01:57:45):
You've been waiting, haven't you, Well, now's the time. Five

your hanging. It was pretty cruel, wasn't it. Kept your
hanging right till the very end. Hank Youngen should be
given an award, the Order of Medal of Australia. The
most straightforward and honorable gentleman world done. Hank. Yes, Hank is.
He does his absolute best. And I know there are

(01:58:29):
lots of people with complaints about Sentling and not happy
with the way things are working. But I'll tell you what,
if anyone can fix it, there is no doubt that
Hank Jongen can. Carmel says I had my Goaver account hacked.
Hack as we're very busy lodging amended tax returns on
my behalf. They tried to claim nearly six thousand dollars.
Also attempted to get money from Centerlink. Since then, I

(01:58:51):
have received threatening emails from people demanding money. It's taken
so long to try to fix my Gover account that
I have decided to leave it locked. Thank you for that, Carmel.
As Hankjongan said, the hacking usually is not so much
inside my galve or cent a link. It's what hackers
get you to do outside of that, and they get

(01:59:12):
you to say you access to your send a Link account.
They get you to click on a link and the like,
and that's where the mistake is made. So, as Hank said,
you never ever whether it be a text message or
an email that says click on this link to get
access to send a link or my gve, you don't
do that. And if you were ever in any doubt,

(01:59:33):
you get in touch with them direct. Well, we have
a winner. It's and congratulations and you have one or
one hundred dollars Cheapest Chips voucher. Two tickets are best
of say dinner this Friday at Adelaide Oval. Hope to
see you there. Cheapest Chips celebrating forty years an essay.

great day.
