Glenn Shorrock is an elder statesman of the Australian music scene and he’s still going strong after more than 50 years of performing.

He’s just released a new album Glenn Shorrock Sings Little River Band featuring 10 reimagined versions of LRB hits.

The two time ARIA Hall Of Fame inductee tells Mark part of the decision to do the album was to reclaim his legacy.

There’s strong evidence that regular exercise can improve brain health and prevent dementia but the question is what is the most effective form of exercise.

Professor Jeff Coombes from the UQ School of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences tells Mark physical exercise may trump mental exercise.

Former origin great Martin Bella has swapped his maroons jersey for a green shirt to fight for regions at the upcoming federal election.

The Green Shirts Movement is aiming to counter left wing groups like Get Up! and will campaign in key Queensland marginals such as Peter Dutton’s seat of Dickson.

A study done by Brisbane’s QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute has found that overweight women who take aspirin at least once a week may reduce their risk of endometrial cancer.

Study author Professor Penny Webb tells Mark further research is needed but if the link is confirmed it could make a huge difference.

Mark has long argued that the penalties for people using mobile phones while driving are totally inadequate.

This week his 79 year old mother fell victim to a distracted driver who ran a red light in the wet while on the phone and smashed into her car.

Fortunately, Mark’s mum wasn’t bady hurt.

Mark believes it should be a criminal offence, a view shared by former police officer and the founder of Road Trauma Service Sunshine Coast, Gary Church.

It’s a lesson taken to heart by a Queensland banana farmer after being smashed by severe two cyclones.

Krista tells Mark it was all about future proofing their business.

Supermarket giant Coles has its own online shopping site but it has now signed-up to sell groceries on internet giant eBay.

Many people see a problem or have a complaint but few actually follow through by contacting the relevant authority or business.

An Australian developed app is making it simpler and quicker for people to take and get action.

The Snap Send Solve app allows people to take a photo on their smartphone which is then submitted as a report to the relevant body.

Send Snap Solve has released a report into 2018’s most common gripes and CEO Danny Gorog tells Mark it’s parking that drives people crazy the most.

A 47 year old man has been remanded in custody after allegedly carjacking and kidnapping a young woman from a carpark at Robina.

The woman wasn’t physically injured and the man surrendered himself to police within 24 hours.

Around 70 prison officers have rallied outside 1 William Street in the city demanding the Palaszczuk Government dump the US based operator of the Arthur Gorrie Correctional Centre.

Officers claim GEO has allowed overcrowding, understaffing and has cut costs in order to win the tender to continue running the facility.

The NSW Government has dumped the company from operating one of its prisons and United Voice spokesman Damien Davie unless Queensland follows suit Prisons Minister Mark Ryan will have blood on his hands.
