Programming note

Thinking of the curtains - the former Queensland Premier Sir Joh Bjelke-Petersen once said that daylight savings time will make curtains and carpets fade and will confuse the cows. We’re based in Queensland, Australia, so Podnews always publishes at 1100 GMT. If you have daylight savings time in your country, state, province, Bundesland or prefecture, expect Podnews at a slightly different time.
