First up, we finally unmasked the Bluey mystery voice, yep, it’s Dave McCormick, aka Bandit, and he gave us the lowdown on duck cakes, the movie, and why he keeps quiet at Bunnings. Then Joel stirred the pot on Entertainment Tonight after chatting with Rosie O’Donnell about her feud with Elizabeth Hasselbeck, and now the internet’s losing it while Joel just sits back laughing. We also had a speeding nan who thought highway 112 was the speed limit, plus Brooklyn Beckham and Roger Federer are apparently fighting over hot sauce, Adele and Gwen Stefani crashed Dua Lipa’s show, Drake’s defamation drama got tossed, and China’s traffic jam looked insane. Also, T-Pain got funky with Crocs boots inspired by his hit song Low. It’s a lot, but we’re here for it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Journalist and Author Cameron Wilson returns to the show this week to talk about his new book, Conspiracy Nation: Exposing the Dangerous World of Australian Conspiracy Theories, co-authored with Ariel Bogle.  Hussein and Cameron talk about the conspiracies, both mundane and over-arching, that have gripped British and Australian political culture, and how the platform-based internet turned fringe conspiratorial arguments into subcultures, and eventually, influential talking points in mainstream politics. They also talk about the real-life consequences of conspiracy theories, the effects on those who have lost loved ones to the messianic promises of conspiratorial cults, and what it might take to try and, at the very least, slow down the process of online radicalisation. -------- Get a copy of Cameron and Ariel's book here: https://www.abebooks.co.uk/9781761153570/Conspiracy-Nation-Exposing-dangerous-world-1761153579/plp ------ PALESTINE  AID LINKS -You can donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians and other charities using the links below. https://www.map.org.uk/donate/donate https://www.savethechildren.org.uk/how-you-can-help/emergencies/gaza-israel-conflict -Palestinian Communist Youth Union, which is doing a food and water effort, and is part of the official communist party of Palestine https://www.gofundme.com/f/to-preserve-whats-left-of-humanity-global-solidarity -Water is Life, a water distribution project in North Gaza affiliated with an Indigenous American organization and the Freedom Flotilla https://www.waterislifegaza.org/ -Vegetable Distribution Fund, which secured and delivers fresh veg, affiliated with Freedom Flotilla also https://www.instagram.com/linking/fundraiser?fundraiser_id=1102739514947848   -Thamra, which distributes herb and veg seedlings, repairs and maintains water infrastructure, and distributes food made with replanted veg patches https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-thamra-cultivating-resilience-in-gaza -------- PHOEBE ALERT Okay, now that we have your attention; check out her Substack Here!

Now, I've got a huge amount of respect for the police, and I very much, almost weakly appreciate what it is that they do for us, but I think we have to call it. Tom Phillips is embarrassing them. I mean, the fact that he is still out there with his kids coming up 4 years now is embarrassing for the police because it looks like they're having rings run around them by a skinny guy from Mara Koppa. He makes a mockery of them every single time he pops up to nick milk from a dairy or shop in full view of the public in Bunnings, or do a job on a bank. Every time someone in the family pleads for him to come home, every time an international media outlet writes another fascinated piece about him being out there. Every winter, when our own media remember that the family are still out there and draw attention to it again, every time that happens, we are reminded that our police cannot find a guy and his kids in the bush around Mara Koppa. Now, I don't know what's going on here. I have a suspicion, I've shared it with you before, that the police are deliberately just leaving him to it.Cause if they wanted to, they could get him out. And you know that. We're a country of people who understand the bush, he's not the only guy in New Zealand with bush skills. The cops have got specialist teams, and if they don't want to use those teams because they don't wanna have a shootout, well, then we've got the Defense Force. The defense force can be used here - they've actually been used in the search beforehand. And you cannot tell me that our SAS can handle the Taliban, but can't track down a guy in the bush and be on him before he knows that they're there. You cannot tell me they can't do that. I suspect the police have made the decision to not find him, which, by the way, I actually think may be the right decision given how messy I think the family court business could in fact be in this case, but they are not trying to find him. And I just wonder if maybe they should say that out loud. Maybe they should just be upfront that he is out there until the day that Tom Phillips decides to come back, just so that every single passing winter doesn't make the police look like they're being beaten by Tom Phillips.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Air Zealand's boss is predicting another challenging year ahead. Our national carrier has seen profits plunge. It's partly due to weak domestic demand and ongoing engine maintenance issues. Chief Executive Greg Foran told Mike Hosking it's also facing unavoidable price hikes for things like landing charges, wages, and engineering materials. He says they can't go down to Bunnings or Mitre 10 to buy a replacement toilet seat for a 787, although he wishes they could. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Perth Property Show, host Trent Fleskens and guest Brendon Ptolomey provide an in-depth analysis of Western Australia's regional property market. They discuss major developments, such as the opening of a new Bunnings in Karratha and its potential impact on property prices. They cover various regions including Port Hedland, South Hedland, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, Albany, Margaret River, Bunbury, York, and Northern, highlighting current property trends, price surges, and investment opportunities. Brendon emphasizes the importance of understanding market risks, especially in high-yield but volatile areas like Kartha.

“What does it take to scale one of the most trusted brands in Australia without losing its soul?”Today's guest is Michael Schneider, Managing Director of Bunnings since 2016 and a 20-year veteran of the business. Bunnings is more than a retailer. It's a cultural institution. With more than 380 stores, $18b in revenue and  55,000 team members, it's hard to imagine a time when Bunnings wasn't the default answer to every home improvement question.But behind that dominance is a story of quiet leadership, discipline, and culture at scale.In this episode, we dig into how Bunnings earned and maintained this dominance – from Every Day Low Prices and delivering brand promises at scale,  to the cultural consistency that is stitched into the fabric of the business, this is a story of of what it really means to scale up — not just fast, but for good.
