FULL SHOW: 4BC Weekend Breakfast with Olympia Kwitowski, Saturday 4th January 2025
On the show today: Olympia covers the day’s headlines including reports that homebuyers in over 300 Queensland suburbs now need an annual income of at least $200,000, well beyond the state’s median salary of $97,000 – pricing out many essential workers like nurses and firefighters.
Gardening is back for another week with Paul Plant, and he gets stuck into your questions straight away! Paul answers questions about a Mandarin tree not fruiting as hoped, how to tackle a back lawn pest, dealing with small caterpillars on a mint plant and what is best to lay underneath artificial grass.
PLUS Paul shares his plant of the week – the Variegated Turf Lily (Liriope muscari ‘Varietaga’). A small tufted ‘grass-like’ lily that is native to China, Korea, Japan and Taiwan.
In the second hour; we hear your thoughts on the” earthy” taste of the Brisbane drinking water that is still present.
It’s also the last weekend of the Brisbane International! With the semi-finals taking place today and the finals tomorrow – Aussie tennis star and local legend, John Millman, joins Olympia to give us a quick rundown on the remaining tennis action.
