Friday, 24 May 2013 by Kris Bondin


Following the announcement that Ford Australia will but shutting its Broadmeadows and Geelong plants in 2016, Kris Bondin from Bills to Pay joined Ken and Lucy to give an overview of the situation.

In the past 12 months, Ford have lost $140 million, with $600 million being lost over the past 6 years. For any business, loses such as these cannot be sustained over a long period of time. Therefore, Ford will no longer be producing motor vehicles and as a result, 1,200 people would have lost their jobs by 2016.

On today's Daily Wrap Up, discussion quickly turns ugly with a full-blown row over the quality of American chocolate vs Australian/British chocolate...and then turtles.

Also on the agenda are talks on the infallibility (?) of caffiene, and Ken and Lucy's tips for the absolute perfect job interview.

The Brick Collector

Thursday, 23 May 2013 by Stuart McNabb


In today's hotly anticipated brick news (?), Ken and Lucy discover a man who has devoted his life to collecting bricks from all around the world, with each one apparently telling a story.

A solid (ha) goal to be sure, but where did this obsession start? Lego might have had something to do with it...

Thursday, 23 May 2013 by Stuart McNabb


Actor Brad Pitt is convinced that he suffers from 'prosopagnosia'. a condition that makes a person rather terrible at recognizing faces. 

The implications for a regular person are confusing enough, but for an A-list actor? It makes re-watching your old films an interesting experience...

Chinese university staff has come up with a very unique way of deciding which students will be allowed to live on-campus. Hundreds of students participated in a quilt folding contest to determine which of them were the neatest and tidiest. A shortage of accommodation available at the university has lead to the tough competition.
