I’d Bet On It — Petrol Attendants Are Coming Back
We kick things off live & unfiltered (and slightly behind schedule thanks to some classic tech dramas), diving straight into what people are seeing on the ground — fuel queues before sunrise, prices jumping overnight, and the pressure starting to hit from every direction.It’s not just fuel either. Interest rates are up, groceries aren’t getting any cheaper, and there’s a real question hanging over everything… how much more can people actually take?Scotty Phillips (The Motley Fool) joins us to break down what the latest rate rise really means, and why it feels like no one’s getting ahead right now before Rod Hannifey stops by for an update on his job to Perth.Later, Amanda Rose jumps on for a wide-ranging chat about free speech, Grace Tame, the way politics has drifted from the people it claims to represent, Trump’s salesman appeal, and why ordinary Australians are sick of leaders reacting instead of planning ahead.In The Man Cave, Adam McDonald’s back with a big charity auction and a few stories from the road.Bit of chaos, bit of reality, bit of everything — just how we like it.---💪🏻 Find Amanda Rose on Instagram here, or head to her website here---🫶 Join the Bonafide Subscriber Page Here 👉 https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1Jsgn8GnPw/---Nature Bee Makes Bonafide Possible ❤️🔥 USE THE COUPON 'LUKE 10' AT CHECKOUT TO SAVE 10% ON YOUR ORDER 🔥👉 PowerBee Meal Replacement Shakes 😋👉 Complete your wellness routine with PowerPollen with the Bonafide Offer today---Have Your Say on The Bonafide Podcast!☎️ Call the Bonafide Hotline - (02) 9128 9311 - to leave a voicemail😎 Follow Luke on Facebook & Instagram 🎥 Subscribe to us on YouTube to stay updated with LIVE SHOWS!👊 LEAVE US A DIGITAL VOICEMAIL HERE📧 [email protected]🍻 Support the VICE CAPTAIN by Following EHVA on Facebook & Instagram , OR visit ehva.com.au
