Australia correspondent Karen Middleton joins Susie to talk about Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's decision to recognise a Palestinian state, the Reserve Bank's decision to cut interest rates to their lowest in two years, and the worsening algal bloom on the South Australian coast - could it lead to beaches being closed this summer?
Also the small group of residents - which include a Hollywood director - who are upset at a trial of BYO booze at their local beach.
