Hey Blurtstars
We've got a jam-packed show today, starting with “Blurt Around The World”:
* Can You Make Money from Your EV?
* Relief for Oz Parents with Young Children?
* Anyone for a Game of Snakes Alive?
* Not “Not Guilty” Enough for the Oz!
In “Chinese Takeaway”, the Kegsta will blurt about the Trump-China-tariffs-trade, followed by Wencee's report on the Chinese government's latest population concerns.
Finally, in “Blurt On Society”, Wencee explores solutions to the housing crisis, and the Kegsta will discuss the $5 million option to settle in Australia that could make a comeback.
So let's get on with the show!
