Big Brother is good for Brisbane, but I'm one of the many who won't be watching it. Will you? Also in Mister Brisbane: a former radio star is getting a room of her own. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

Mister Brisbane asks: Why are we not all on board about child safety? Yes, we did silly things when we were young -- but some kids paid the price. Times have changed, and we're smarter now. At least, we should be. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

Do Brisbane's early birds need a stronger "dawn economy"? Has reality TV gone too far? What's new on B105 next year? And where will Mister Brisbane be going at the end of next week? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

According to analysis of my DNA, I am "moderately likely to experience mood changes influenced by music". Lah-dee-dah.

Fun fact. What used to be the URL for the Australian production of the musical Love Never Dies now points to a sport news site.

Mister Brisbane asks: Which radio station will be the first to surrender its licence? Also: who were you listening to 35 years ago? And: a popular presenter moves (further) south. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

Thus inspiring a blockbuster miniseries, Gateshead Unvisited.

Kyle Sandilands is always in the news. Do we need to know his every move? Plus: is Ray Hadley coming back to 4BC and 2GB? Also: how I was silenced! It's all in Mister Brisbane. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

I’m guessing it was before.

... and I thought my old diaries were hot.

According to analysis of my DNA, I am "less likely to be able to focus on specific tasks". Now here's a picture of a cat.

Neither the Coles app nor website is working. I guess they are Down Down.

What's the point of a news-talk radio station if the "news" is recorded hours before it goes to air? Does the medium lack its former sense of immediacy? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

OK, so the Brisbane 2032 logo is visually appealing, but the assertion that the "eye" represents Brisbane and South East Queensland is just wrong, as this overlay (with SEQ shaded) demonstrates. #brisbane2032

The Brisbane 2032 logo debacle was not about revealing “Queensland’s most talked about secret”. It was a slip up, and we should embrace the funny side. But Games organisers should seriously look at incorporating an Ibis into the mascot mix. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

The little film that beat the odds is now available for online purchase, and will make its way to streaming soon. But could there be a sequel? Coyote vs ACME vs Alien vs Predator, perhaps? nationalseniors.com.au/news/…

Two men and a woman. Is this paint-by-numbers approach to creating radio shows doing more harm than good? Mister Brisbane also asks whether changes are imminent at ABC radio and TV, and: Is Kyle Sandilands really being hacked? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

As daylight saving approaches again, the media is treating Queenslanders like chumps. Also: I review the new arrangements on radio, and how 2GB gets to keep its traffic reporter but 4BC doesn't. And: Is Bob Katter's great banana split a good idea? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

According to analysis of my DNA, I am "less likely to attend music concerts". True, if we're comparing me now to me 30 years ago.

Some shocking stats about radio listening habits have shaken a normally unflappable futurologist. Is radio as we know it on a road to nowhere? Also: Why is the ABC doubling down on music from the 1980s? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…
