On the show: Richard opens with a look at social media “experts” and why having an opinion isn’t the same as knowing the facts.

The new court challenge over the MotoGP circuit through the park lands, and news that the final Phillip Island MotoGP was cancelled due to poor visibility. Tracey Yeend in the studio on walking, weight-bearing exercise and bone density, the pressure on nurses and our hospitals, the shortage of aged care beds, and why we should share our positive health care experiences. Steve Davis with his new song about the Big Rocking Horse at Gumeracha, plus memories of the old Monash playground and the Big Scotsman. Bob The Murder Man on the 1915 death of John Murphy at Murray Town and the acquittal of his wife Emily (domestic violence warning). Wala Truscott on relationships .Dr Travis Brown on surgeon James Ewing and the discovery of Ewing’s sarcoma. Caroline Rowe asks whether Christmas baking is a dying tradition, with stir-up Sunday, her quick boiled fruit cake, Kytons Christmas puddings and a mango tiramisu idea. Plus your calls on the cost of living and government spending, the cricket, fixing a frozen Microsoft Edge with a Windows repair, and why fuel price rises always seem to blame a war somewhere.
