    Unlock the secrets of vitamin pairings that can transform your health, especially if you're a shift worker. Join me, Roger Sutherland, as I draw from my years as a shift worker and certified nutritionist to guide you through the strategic combinations of vitamins that go beyond just popping pills. Imagine boosting your bone strength with the powerhouse pairing of vitamin D and calcium or supporting your brain health with the synergy of B12 and folate, essential for plant-based diets. This episode promises to arm you with practical knowledge, emphasising the benefits of whole foods and smart vitamin combinations to optimise your well-being.

    Shift work poses unique challenges, but with the right vitamin pairings, you can enhance your sleep quality, manage stress, and even improve muscle relaxation. Together we’ll explore how magnesium and vitamin B6 can be your allies in achieving these goals, along with the antioxidant boost from vitamin E and C. Misconceptions about vitamin K and D will be clarified, ensuring you don't fall for common pitfalls. Plus, learn why relying solely on supplements might not be enough. Engage with the community, subscribe for more insights, or take advantage of my personalised coaching sessions for guidance tailored to your lifestyle. Let’s move beyond survival and help you thrive.

    Journey back to 1974 as veteran law enforcement officer Roger Sutherland takes us on a nostalgic trip with his vivid memories of a David Cassidy concert at the iconic MCG. Explore the often overwhelming pressures of early stardom faced by young performers such as Cassidy and Justin Bieber. With a fond nod to rock legends, Roger discusses the differing paths of Bruce Springsteen, who remains grounded, and others who struggle with fame. We also dive into Roger's fandom for Kiss, highlighting the disciplined lifestyles of Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. Listeners from Western Australia and beyond are invited to share their own musical memories and insights into the enduring influence of music.

    The challenging world of FIFO (Fly-In-Fly-Out) mining work is brought to life through Donny’s experiences in the north-eastern Goldfields, as he shares how his family adapted to a life on the move. We touch on the evolving conditions and amenities for these workers, alongside the troubling issues of substance abuse faced by those returning home with too much money and idle time. Our discussion takes a technological turn with an examination of facial recognition in retail environments—exploring both its security benefits and the privacy concerns it raises. A personal story from Rob sheds light on the physical demands and risks associated with FIFO work.

    Shifting gears, we engage in a heated debate about drug use and public health policies at festivals. The controversial topic of pill testing is explored alongside the parallels drawn to anti-smoking campaigns and the steep cost of cigarettes leading to illegal tobacco sales. We weigh the economic benefits of FIFO work against its social impacts on communities and families, pondering solutions for better integration. The episode wraps up with a conversation about graffiti, sparked by a caller named Arabia, who advocates for a transformation in drug policy from punishment to rehabilitation and legal regulation, emphasizing the potential benefits of a legal framework in managing drug-related issues.
