Hey Blurtstars

On a jam packed show we will start with "Blurt Around The World":

  • The passing of Australian journalist, George Negus.

  • Twitter back in action in Brazil.

  • Things from the 90s could be worth gold now.

  • Albo being ableist in Parliament.

  • New film "War Game" about a stolen election.

On "Poll Position" the Kegsta will ask if the polls can be believed. Wencee brings us hope with an update from the USA election whisperer.

Then on "Indelible Indigenous " the Kegsta will blurt about Indigenous people day. And Wencee will tell us all about Neville Bonner.

And to finish off the show, on "Let's Get Technical", the Kegsta will blurt about Google and Notebook LM and Wencee will tell us all about the latest SpaceX Starship achievement.

So let's get on with the show!
