Weekends with Dan Nolan (filling in for Peter Fegan) – Sunday, 7th April 2024

Peter Fegan

On the show: Dan’s back and tackles the day’s headlines, including the age-old debate of daylight savings. University of Queensland’s Associate Professor of Human Geography Dr Thomas Sigler calls in to shed light on new research that suggests 80% of Queenslanders actually do want daylight savings and why these attitudes are changing PLUS we hear plenty of opinions from listeners in response. Consumer Behaviour Analyst and Business Strategist Barry Urquhart joins us to discuss the rise of the online marketplace Temu and the tactics they deploy to get you buying more, including flashing lights, discounts and games. Barry compares Temu’s practices to our major supermarkets and explains why users are actually “the product” rather than customers. The diabetes drug Ozempic is not approved for weight loss, but this trend is leaving diabetics without – University of Sydney Associate Lecturer Pharmacy Practice Andrew Bartlett joins the program to explain this and the dangers associated with it. Dan and Andrew talk about how this rise is seeing shortages for diabetics in need of it and what regulators need to do to address this issue. Dan has a quick check in with Peter Fitzgerald from Inglis Sales about the highly anticipated sale of the first foal of champion racehorse Winx and her “personal security detail”, 4BC Sports Reporter Sam Leckie provides an extensive sports update; and we look ahead to the coming week with your long-range weather forecast.
