Journey back to 1974 as veteran law enforcement officer Roger Sutherland takes us on a nostalgic trip with his vivid memories of a David Cassidy concert at the iconic MCG. Explore the often overwhelming pressures of early stardom faced by young performers such as Cassidy and Justin Bieber. With a fond nod to rock legends, Roger discusses the differing paths of Bruce Springsteen, who remains grounded, and others who struggle with fame. We also dive into Roger's fandom for Kiss, highlighting the disciplined lifestyles of Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. Listeners from Western Australia and beyond are invited to share their own musical memories and insights into the enduring influence of music.

The challenging world of FIFO (Fly-In-Fly-Out) mining work is brought to life through Donny’s experiences in the north-eastern Goldfields, as he shares how his family adapted to a life on the move. We touch on the evolving conditions and amenities for these workers, alongside the troubling issues of substance abuse faced by those returning home with too much money and idle time. Our discussion takes a technological turn with an examination of facial recognition in retail environments—exploring both its security benefits and the privacy concerns it raises. A personal story from Rob sheds light on the physical demands and risks associated with FIFO work.

Shifting gears, we engage in a heated debate about drug use and public health policies at festivals. The controversial topic of pill testing is explored alongside the parallels drawn to anti-smoking campaigns and the steep cost of cigarettes leading to illegal tobacco sales. We weigh the economic benefits of FIFO work against its social impacts on communities and families, pondering solutions for better integration. The episode wraps up with a conversation about graffiti, sparked by a caller named Arabia, who advocates for a transformation in drug policy from punishment to rehabilitation and legal regulation, emphasizing the potential benefits of a legal framework in managing drug-related issues.
