What began as a plan to welcome Sydney with festive hams quickly shifts in response to a difficult week, with the team deciding to pass those small gifts on to first responders instead. Josh heads to Bondi to personally thank surf lifesavers and police, hearing firsthand stories of bravery, quiet resilience, and compassion in the aftermath of recent events. From silent beaches to unexpected moments of kindness, it’s a moving reminder of the people who show up when it matters most.

Today we continue getting to know Sydney, the city they’re temporarily calling home. Sharing powerful stories of kindness and resilience in the wake of tragedy, including a moving email from listener Brad about people lining up for hours to donate blood. There’s also room for lighter moments as the team dives into some of Sydney’s quirks, from the mythical panther to the ongoing seagull problem, and even a visit from a listener who claims to remember Saga World, the short lived theme park of the 90s. It’s a thoughtful mix of heart, humour, and discovery.

In an extraordinary moment during an already devastating week, the Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese interrupted the show live to speak directly to the nation.

He shared words of unity and resolve following the anti-Semitic terrorist attack on a Hanukkah celebration, reflecting on the meaning of light over darkness and the strength of Australians coming together in grief and defiance.

The Prime Minister also provided an update on Ahmed, the Australian Hero whose bravery saved lives, and honoured other everyday heroes who ran toward danger. We spoke about national unity, community support, blood donations, candlelight vigils, public safety, gun laws, and how Australians move forward without letting fear win.

A powerful, emotional conversation about leadership, courage, and the values that define Australia at its best.
