2022 is back in full force which means it was hard to decide on three top stories but we have narrowed it down. This week: climbing temperatures, FRINGE excitement and a healthy dose of funk and soul music.

It was a big week back for Breakfast with Taylah who served up an interesting and insightful conversation about the role of influencers in the modern social media landscape.

She had a chat to Mariah O'Dea about her new Fringe show #THENEWME which explores the role of online influencers, common influencer troupes and their impact on our own online and offline lives.

On the Record Wednesday presenter Fiona Bartholomaeus had the opportunity to chat to ECU Senior Research Fellow Dr Lauren Fortington about the associated signs of heat-induced illness, particularly while on bush walks as the weather starts to heat up in Perth.

And in music, presenter Emma Lucia chats with Mama's Gun band members Chris and Dave, about soul and funk music and the inspiration for their forthcoming album Cure The Jones.

First up, it's an excerpt from Maddie Lombardi's meaty conversation with Prof. Paul Newmann on COP26. How have there been 25 of these things? Why is it so important now? And how has Scott Morrison managed to botch the schmoozing up so badly?

First up, it's On the Record's Jeff Bullen in robust conversation with Greg Mullins – climate activist, bushfire expert, and former Commissioner of Fire and Rescue for NSW.

Next, Maddie Lombardi chats with disability rights expert Fran Collins, author of Workplace Culture and the NDIS.

Fran joined On the Record to discuss how our obsession with reopening the borders at specific percentage rates of vaccinations is putting enormous pressure on disabled people.
