Tracey Tully on School Safety, Remembering Sam Neill, and Nick McKim on Supermarket Surveillance
Bonafide with Luke BonaShow Notes
This week on Bonafide: educator and whistleblower Tracey Tully joins Luke for a frank, urgent conversation about violence in Australian schools — a friend's on-air account of being assaulted by a student and the PTSD that followed, real incidents involving weapons, and a concrete case for metal detectors at school gates. Bonafide pauses to remember actor Sam Neill, who passed away this week after a rare blood disease. Tasmanian Senator Nick McKim breaks down why supermarket prices keep climbing — and a genuinely surprising tangent into "surveillance capitalism," including supermarket loyalty programs that can identify shoppers by the way they walk. Plus: AMP chief economist Shane Oliver on why it takes 50% longer to build a home than it did a decade ago, and in Man Cave, Neurons AI Robotics' Adrian Tyson brings a live robot into the studio to talk AI in healthcare and the uncanny valley.

Greg Evans, the host of Perfect Match, tells Luke how Reg Grundy's dating show let Channel Ten charge prime-time rates at 5:30, and about the contestant who chose number three but couldn't stop thinking about number one. He went through the phone book to find her. Greg also reveals where Dexter the robot lives now, and he and Luke swap the songs from the 3XY and 2SM days they reckon you need to hear.
