On the show: Feegs kicks off your Saturday with a short recap of the Opening Ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games, including performances from Lady Gaga, Celine Dion and appearances by some of sports biggest names.
Feegs is also fired up about Premier Steven Miles, with taxpayers forking out nearly $170,000 for two private jets to zip Premier Miles, the police commissioner and their respective entourages during a five-day cross-Queensland media blitz – when it seems they could all have fit on one jet. Feegs questions if these moves pass the pub test and calls for more cost-saving travel alternatives.
Acting Assistant Police Commissioner Andrew Massingham joins for a weekly update on the latest local crime issues and statistics. AAC Massingham provides us with an update on Taskforce Guardian and discusses a recent case involving a teen who has pled guilty after causing a triple fatal crash in Maryborough last year.
Aspire Retire Financial Services co-founder Olivia Maragna joins for Money Talks. Olivia tells us more about the recently reported “baby recession” – which see’s people postponing or forgoing having children due to cost of living pressures; growing inequality between Australia’s richest 1 percent and those supporting a wealth tax on those with over $50 million of wealth; and a warning from Centrelink that recipients may need to amend their tax returns even if they have already lodged them.
For our Local Issues segment: Liberal MP for Herbert, Phillip Thompson, joins to elaborate more on his recent accusations that the Australian Defence Force are lagging behind the major sporting codes in protecting personnel from serious brain injuries. Philip talks about his own experiences serving in the defence force and the protocols that he thinks should be implemented to help veterans.
