FULL SHOW: 4BC Weekend Breakfast with Olympia Kwitowski, Sunday 1st December 2024
On the show today: Olympia is back and covering the day’s headlines, including reports that security agencies in Australia and the UK are struggling to attract young workers – proving that while spies and secret agents are supposed to be difficult to find, they’re actually proving to be almost impossible to hire! We hear your thoughts on the day’s headlines.
Gardening is back with Arno King, which sees Arno and Olympia get to your questions straight away! Arno shares tips on fertilising Citrus Trees that are struggling in Burpengary soil, discusses if garden lime will affect the birds, and makes suggestions for a listener who is having troubles with growing a red papaya.
PLUS Arno shares his plant of the week – the seemingly popular Blood Lily! We’ve heard a lot about this striking plant from listeners in recent weeks. It’s one that loves the SE QLD climate, works in pots and in the ground and prefers part-shade.
In the second hour, Olympia shares how she triumphed over a persistent telemarketer and how you could possibly do the same!
We also hear from a recent NASA intern! By day, David Corporal is a research engineer at Boeing. But in August, he was one of five Indigenous university students who travelled to California for a 10-week internship at NASA’s Jet propulsion laboratory. We hear more about this fascinating trip.
PLUS: Olympia also shares more Christmas Market delights – but this time in the Scenic Rim! Canungra is having its annual Christmas Market on Sunday 8th December. We hear from Canungra Markets Committee member and ‘My Country Escape’ owner, Michelle Roper-Dennis, about what you can expect.
