Great, this is Jason Laurene one hundred. Well, good morning everybody.
Welcoming a Wednesday or Wednesday.
Or right I know, and even better the day before my kids go back to school.
Oh my, what's the what's the overriding emotion right now?
Oh? Excitement? Oh excitement marry Christmas Eve? Feeling at our place?
You know what else it is?
It's desperation because it's it's around last week in this week where parents are just running on empty with ideas of what to.
Do with their kids school holidays.
And many parents we've seen it here in the office, are bringing their kids to work because they're just like, well, we're back at work and what else are we going to do?
In fact, they can remain nameless. But I know someone in upper management me too, who got the technicians just.
Because we got a little visitor today, last day of school holidays.
Jasons rolled in in the vun with the kids. Morning Felix Morning, School's back tomorrow.
Depression.
Are you excited to go back to school?
I mean, like, I'm happy that I'm in grade six, but I just want to stay on holidays of primary.
Yeah, last year primary school.
Felix, you're a bit sick of your dad, kind.
Of What was the worst thing he made you do on the school holiday?
I know I have been a lot to stop.
I didn't ask you. What was the worst thing he made you do on the school holidays?
Go to a movie that I didn't want to see, but I had to because I didn't want to stay home with a babysit.
What did you take him to Flight Risk? Not again, not channing.
But if I didn't take him to Flight Risk, then I would have had to seen a rom com with lou my wife.
Sounds amazing.
It's amazing, screams Oscar.
One hundred tomatoes on rotten tomatoes.
Also, you got mum to have a conversation with me every time he had friends coming over for playdates. Didn't you these holidays?
What did mum have to say? I forgot.
Mum had to sit me down and say, Felix would like you not to do jokes in front of his friends.
No stand up today, Dad, Yeah, fair enough.
I that was very annoying.
And Felix, guess what, Because you're here in the office today, that means Clinton I are in charge of whatever you want to do.
Let's go see whatever you want. What you thinking? What are you feeling?
Kids day?
It's not kid's day. So some are back today, some are tell me about.
It, mate, Some go back on Friday.
So does that mean some school zones are enforceable?
School? Yes? Yeah, yeah, actually laid down the roads. Guys. Sorry, are we filming Underbelly and Melbourne and I'm unaware?
Yeah, we are.
This Gangland shooting it's the punisher.
Was that his name?
Well? That was yeah, it was referred to as Sam Abrahim.
Oh he's a bad man. But I don't think we can be having street executions.
Well, the fear is right now that it's reignited the Underworld War, the Underworld War, which was just completely notorious here in Victoria, going back what ten odd years ago?
The shooting in South here only like two years ago.
I wasn't even two years ago. I don't know.
I wasn't up to date with the news last night. I went up for lunch yesterday and buried in my head and sad.
Yeah, great, okay, I did.
I went up for Tuesday lunch.
What do they call you? Not the punisher?
No? No, no, she is trust me.
She called me punishing of the afternoon. I was having peanut Colada champagne cocktails.
Holiday is not ending at your place.
No, we're doing fast just day lunched twenty eighth jatn squeeze that in.
No, we had some friends here. We had some friends here from out of town. They were also punishing and wouldn't leave my house. Last night I went to bed and I was like, can you go home?
What's I don't know. I went to bed at nine and.
They were still going yeah, oh.
Well they're still on holidays.
Oh no, everything, No, no, No. Tipping point is the signal to wine things down at my place. Tipping points on point back on, Yeah, I believe. So there was some game show on yesterday back yeah, just before the news at six.
And then you're watching Matts because you text me saying you're watching Maths and I said, no, got guests over.
It was a good one last night. Was it let me guess, Desperate Wife?
No, it's Katie and Tony or something. I saw the very last minute of it.
She was desperate. Well, she seemed pretty way the show.
They are there to find love.
Just you know what form of Instagram follow you.
Could be staring down the barrel next year.
Flossy, you're a dog owner, of course I am. There's nothing more. I love the feeling of taking.
The dog out for a walk on a beautiful summer's day.
Yeah, they're happiest when they're out of the house and they just love it.
Question, what are your like off lead?
Oh, mine's fine, because when I say fine, he's until he picks up the center of it.
Yeah, you've got food or something like, Because that's what gets me going watching like a dog owner walk down the street and having the control of their dog without a lead, and the dog just walks by.
But my pointer would take off and run into a restaurant and eat everybody's lunch off.
Yeah, that's risk.
Yeah, she's not, she's ndy. She's like of course.
On dog walks, you meet some people, you see some things, there are incidents.
It's just a real activity.
Yeah, it's a hot world out there. We did.
We spoke about this last year, like people are hooking up, meeting up in dog parks.
So falling in love.
I wouldn't say I hooked up, but I did meet someone Hello on a walk, A lovely lady in her seventies.
That's just right in your hitting zone.
And you really want a short relationship.
But the reason the reason we stopped is because the two dogs, her dog and my dog look strikingly similar, Like I have a beagle cavalier aka a beagleia.
Now why do they cross a beagle with a cavalier. That's a fascinate question for doctor Harry Cooper, doctor Chris Brown.
Yeah, Harry hasn't been cancer he.
I think he was still walking God's green Earth around.
These dogs looked the same like beagles cavaliers to each other like friends. Not really anyway, It struck up a conversation, how old is your dog?
I said?
Five?
What about you?
Five?
Were they siblings?
Where did you get your dog from? A breeder in northern New South Wales? Same here?
What was the breeder called beagleier Bubbs?
Only one Bubs isn't there? That's what it was.
It was the same litter living in Richmond, brothers Pep and Leroy was his name.
Did they like each other?
No?
Each other? But were still.
That's amazing because it didn't even come from a breeder in Melbourne.
No.
We both got them shipped in on a quantus flight.
Like.
Margaret wants to spend more time with.
Not you.
So now she's trying to plan walks brother walks, and I'm like, Margaret.
Why couldn't Margaret have been like thirty five, smoking smoking hole. Yeah, no, Margaret, Margaret thirty five and choice.
The dog's nice.
You go away every weekend. You could have a free dogs hitter. Off you go, pep off to your step mom, off the mark.
You really got a punchin forgetting old people to do jobs for you, don't you you're older. You have the neighbors who are ninety eight, and they used to put his bins out.
I think that's just in his hitting zone.
The oldies love him, The old ducks love you.
Anyway. Family reunion on the streets of Richmond, how about it.
That's pretty cool.
That's really cool, amazing.
What do they call you know when it's all just cross breeds? Oh, it's to come out of a dog orgie or something, you know, that's it the mats? Does that mean it was just an all in?
It's a bit of everything. Like those dogs when you don't know what they are. Yeah, well sometimes they're rescue dogs.
You don't exactly know, gotcha, it's funny when they've got like German German shepherd faces and like chihuahua bodies.
Yeah, yeah, that's not That was a big night Jesus, which.
He saw.
He the next morning to be back at work.
I can't wait for the kids to be back at school.
Yes, school holidays are Some kids are back today. Your kids aren't back till tomorrow.
So we've got Felix hanging out in here today. There's lots of parents taking their kids to work at the moment.
Can we put my kid on the phones or something? I just like, just give him a job.
I think we should just let him run a whole segment talk about whatever he wants to absolutely not.
What do you think, Clint.
He's currently riding a chair like a horse.
Because he's bored.
I love it.
I remember going to my parents.
I'm out of ideas.
Robbing the stationary cupboard at my dad's work.
I've said going out self to merch, Like, do whatever you want.
He is, he old Enough've got an idea for me, Go hit us with it.
Be good.
I want a job, a job?
Oh, like, we'll give you a job to do.
He wants money. He wants money, that's what it is. He wants money, not money.
Is he old enough to drive the car and pick me up?
No, no he's not.
He's going to go for a driving lesson one hundred and twenty hours. How old are you feeling?
How old are.
Sixteen?
No he's not sixteen, he's twelve ish? How old is I've got three of them?
Are?
It's very hard to keep up?
Hey, I'll find a job for you. Feeling you want to do my job?
Actually he's way too qualified for that. Our heart's going out to all the parents across Melbourne hanging there?
How are we coping?
Not great? Let's say hello to my next guest.
Our next guest is the genre defining DJ.
Who's responsible for all these.
Yet sleep great repeats?
Welcome to the show.
Now look, before we say hello, we were having the discussion off the year, how we should address this man? Is it the fat Boy? Is it mister Slim? Can we go by Norman?
I think it's a full name, full time call you.
My friends call me Norman.
So we'll go with fat Boy.
You you'll raise it up, Josh, Nobby, whatever you're like, Nobby.
Let's roll with Let's go with Nobby.
First up, congratulations on your years of success. You are absolutely bloody killing it.
Thank you, thank you. Did you know it's now officially and now it's down in the New Year's forty years since quit my day job, and.
Yeah, what was it working in a record?
It was always music, Yeah, it was always music. But I've been a professional musician for forty years. I'm very very proud of that.
Hey, Australia, what is it about Australia, Well, you know, you hear a.
Lot, right, Yeah, I just love Australians really. I mean, the country's quite beautiful, you got some nice beaches and that, but it's the Ausies that that really turned me on. It's that we're very very similar. I mean, obviously we speak the same language, but beyond that, we seem to collect in terms of abandon in terms of sense of humor. You know, I just feel a great affinity with Aussi's and they they you know, they get me more than some countries.
We are on the U Fat Boys, Slimy's doing a national tour, going to be playing me out to need a stake, So that's.
A winery gig.
Have you done one of these day on the Green Winery gigs before.
I did a couple on the last roun and quite enjoyed it. I mean, the thing is because it comes so regularly. I've been coming, you know, for thirty years, and there is the danger of repeating yourself because I can't really change the show that much. It's me playing records and trying to make you dance, you know. So I'm not reinventing the show. But when you do it in different venues, it has it brings brings a different life to it. So I played the Sydney Meyer twice.
First time I played this is beautiful. The second time I was like, okay, yeah, I've done this, but you know, so it's nice to play different places. The Winery is that they take on a different atmosphere. Yeah, people have traveled further that, people have invested more. People have definitely drunk more a lot.
They get really loose.
That's what I was going to want it to have been going, rather than I've just nipped down here after work. It's like we've been at this day. So yeah, there's it's it's a way of keeping it fresh to do it in different venues and if it's a beautiful night, it kind of adds an ex your element to it.
Well, they set it up very well out there. Hey, now that you mentioned you've got a couple of kids, how old.
I've got a fifteen year old daughter and a twenty four year old son.
The reason I asked was because dad's dad would be pretty cool. Have they asked you to play any gigs like mate's eighteenth birthdays or yeah, school?
I have been lucky enough to do most of my son's. But the son's actually professional DJ now, so he's more what he says, his dad, can I open for you when you play.
A big gigs?
And is allowed?
Ever?
Allowed to is a bit.
We do it occasionally, but we try not to do it too much because it would get you know, it would be smack of nepotism. But also he's finally it difficult to obviously he lives a little bit in my shadow and he's trying to his own identity. So we try not to do too much. So it's a nice, rare treat when we do do it together. But my daughter, she is just planning her sweet sixteen birthday. She has said, Dad, you will play work for us, won't you?
And I was like, no, give us that saying I get your brother to play.
Well, he would probably He's probably more suited musically, because I'm not quite sure if I mean. I connect well with the sort of eighteen year olds, but the last time I played a party for sixteen year olds there I felt a little old.
We'll just reminder works work, so it's still invoicer.
He actually DJ Jay's herself. We're a very incestuous family.
I do this.
I do this festival at a holiday camp called Buttling's where I curate the whole weekend of the acts it so it's like an indoor festival. And this year we got my uncle Dennis, who's seventy eight, but it was him who called me to DJ. So he went back to back to back with me and my son. So we had three generations.
Good.
That's pretty cool, you know what I mean? But not many people would get to experience it. Who who knows who pulls up stumps first? Him or your son? Who pulls up stumps first? Who lasts longer partying through the night? Him or your son?
Oh, my son goes on for days?
Again?
Would he cook cook? He's very entertaining because he because I'm a bit of a show off right when a DJ and I'm a little bit electic. Now, he grew up with that, so he thinks that's normal. So when he started, he's like, I'm gonna do what dad does, but I'm going to put a bit of the showbies and into it, and I'm going to play a bit more eclectic. So he's absolutely nuts. He's a very DJ to watch.
Just quickly before we let you go, Clint here has a mad habit just appearing in DJ booths on a Saturday night around Melbourne. From a from the DJ point of view, do you love it when drunk people just join the booth and just want to and want to jump next to you and have a go mixing?
That's what I live for, Yes, careful, careful As a DJ, that is the pinnacle. That's I mean, if you could spill your drink over the decks while I'm playing, stop working and that would just be the perfect night for me.
Nobby, I will see you at Mount Done.
I'm looking forward to it well, Fat Boy Slim and Clint Mount Dunia State twenty second of March. Tickets are on sale now from Ticketmaster or Frontier Touring dot com and at MG dot live.
I might wait for this.
It's going to be awesome it you're in the booth.
Yeah, careful what you wish for, Nobby, Seriously, we'll see you when you get to Melbourne Maye.
All right, so soon?
Okay, this is random to go with me, right, yeah, thirteen twenty four to ten? How many pairs of shoes do you want? Like, for example, my dad, Yeah, I didn't own any pairs of long pants. Whenever my sisters. Whenever my sister's got married or I got married, he had to buy long pants for the wedding. Really, there'd be some.
Theres Queensland thing I've ever heard. No, No one's only got thongs. A lot of shoes surely.
That I don't even wear, don't touch. Okay, we're going to come back chat about this.
But I've got a lot of a lot of pairs of shoes.
I'm shocked.
But they're on rotation where my stepbrother has all these sneakers that he doesn't wear.
Thirteen twenty four ten on display? How many shoes do you own? And I'll tell you why we're asking next we are talking shoes and feet.
I mean, look, that's isn't it?
Seeze and bean.
We had fat boy Slimon who told us to call him Bobby.
His friends call him Nobby.
Yeah, and you won't stuck with it. You won't see him behind the decks in a pair of shoes. Is it true? You really do dj bear feet always?
Yeah, always, apart from a snowboarding festival. Is helping outdoors.
Well that's smart. He's not doing bare feet in the snow. But I can relate to that because I'm a barefoot bounder. I hate shocks me disgusting. You're disgusting.
Clint send me a photo of him on holidays. Over the Christmas break, he sent me a photo of his hooves out about in Queensland. He goes, look, I'm walking into a bottle shop bare feet.
Yeah, it was very Queensland, very Queensland.
Well I only did it because I was up north. See Queensland. When they say no, no, no, not getting.
On and off the beach and your feet a sound.
This is in Brisbane.
Not no shoes, mate, in fact, not in any shoes.
Just take ye bare feet. My Paul is my fiance.
Paul is a Queenslander and he but he's like he thinks he's got soft feet. I'm like, please, So he always wears shoes, Like when he wakes up in the morning, the first thing he does is put shoes on.
When we rug boots.
No, he's not an ug but guy.
But when we first started dating, he would sleep with shoes next to the bed And I said, what for is that?
What if I need to chase someone? I was like, do you think that you've got time to put shoes on?
Has he got the laces? That's a good sixty, sticks.
In the shower, gets out of chap, puts his clothes on.
If my memory is right, doesn't he buy the same shoe? Does he not? He has the same shoe and he just buys that.
Yeah, do that?
He's got like, he's sneakers that he likes. He's got his boots that he likes. He's got his and when they need new ones, he gets the same ones.
You've seen that shop at Chadstone, the sneaker shop where they shrink wrapped the shoes.
Why on earth they wrapped? How are you going to try him on and run around the running track.
Like at Athletes's foot. So confused, But I don't think that they're there for wearing. What are they there for collecting. I think they're like collectibles.
Shoes rattles me the dust people.
The lights are very bright in there as well.
People collect shoes and they don't wear them.
Thirty twenty four to ten is our number.
How many pairs of shoes do you have? Do you know what a most bor we've got?
Oh me?
Yeah?
Maybe seven six seven pairs of shoes full stop? Yeah, probably does that include dress shoes?

I'm pushing thirty really yep.

You don't know if they're going to work or if they're going to Absolutely going back to school days, it'd be so many kids with the new school shoes wearing the mum would be like, wear thick socks and wear them around the house, wear them in and clean runners for school and your friends
stand on clean runners. That when your friends would stand on them, it's a heart break.
I was going to put in stretchy laces in my shoes on the holiday.
Oh my god, curly laces them.
Ready to go. Well, good morning, Melbourne and welcome to your Wednesday. We've got a huge show coming up. A good news for parents with kids heading back to school.

Kidding me nasty goring, how good?
But no nuts, no, no, no, no nuts.
Yes no, there's very specific things you can and can't take to school.
Remember when we're traveling to the Gold Coast. We had Archie, our two year old, on the plane, and I was sitting on the other side of the aisle and my wife goes here, give them a sandwich, and then halfway through eating it, she goes, just keep an eye and it's a peanut butter.
Sandwich for the first time.
You got to test it somewhere.
That's not the place to do it, not at.
Forty thousand feet without an eppie pen.
Want to tasting things like that.
I don't know, it's too wish. Three.
Do you know how to parent? Do you have any idea?
Can't wait for the book. It'll be an audio with Jason Hawker.
It'll be an audio, you know, writing questions and my.
Strength of the Tuffy stories.
Hey, coming up this morning, we are going to be paying your debt. We've got a brand new game called debt roll APTE. How this works is if you go to the Nova player app or we've got to novfm dot com dot are you you can register there with all the bills you've collected over summer.
Totally or maybe it's your kids' school uniform bills.
YEP, credit card bills, whatever it is. Bill are going to pay them coming up before seven thirty this morning.
But next Lozzi, Well, we've all just been on holidays, lots of school holidays, summer holidays.
Is there anything worse than getting sick on a holiday when you're away from home?
Happened to us? Well, say what happened next?
Jelly Roll eleven past seven on nov It is Jason Lauren. I got obsessed with the jelly Roll over summer. Did you did a bit of research on the man? I didn't know he did time.
I don't know much about jelly roll.
Yeah, he did time. What he was saying, he was like writing a lot of music in jail. But he actually found it easier when he went to an adult jail, because he said he was in a youth correctional facility, and he was.
Like, facility, not a youth correctional facility.
Facility, do you know what?
But he did better when he was in the.
Adult No, I want to know the story about the facility.
That's better, well done, Yeah, the adult facility.
They gave him rubber pencils when he was at the rubber pencil at the youth facility, sober pencil so he couldn't write like he struggled to write the songs. I think. So they're not using and stuff like that.
What the wobbly, Yeah, so you can't use.
It as a ship, but you can't write with it.
You struggle to write with it.
Wow, I've never seen that before.
No, you didn't watch the dotor?
Is there a docker?
You have a song about it?
Is there a jelly roll doco?
It was more like YouTube clips. When I say I went down a big jelly I spent about six minutes checking out the.
I mean I did some things about holidays, but not a jelly roll doco.
I watched the Celendon do Springer one.
Oh Jerry, Jerry, Jerry.
Cooked behind the scenes, wasn't it behind the wild?
I mean, anyone who thought Jerry Springer was not cooked behind the scenes, I think was a bit cooked themselves.
Though very reminiscent of a radio show.
Remember when the guy fell in love with the Hawks?
Yeah? Remember Steve Steve see Steve the Security Guard, And he got his own show.
He got a spin off show.
That's right.
Did you watch the Jerry Springer doco?
No, it's too busy doing the jelly.
Jelly roller. He's clearly out now he's not making music from inside.
No. No, he did perform at a prison plastic pencil.
He performed at a prison. He did a prison gig for the for the facility.
She's mocking me. No, no, she's not mocking I feel like she's mocking me.
You've really come back from the holidays saying your words a little bit.
It's like you've got I thought you're going to say, I've really come back from the knowledge.
Have you have you got new teeth?
Because yesterday, yesterday, you can't get your mouth around your words yesterday to the dentist.
Can you give me the merrit at first, give me the Tony Jan's teeth.
Yesterday you said you made a Greek so hard and then you said, well, the kids' school holidays the only one saying it right. It's the elves. You can't say any else, and school holidays.
At the moment, what's my name?
You've really changed over the holidays? The holidays are over? Holidays is still from we start a list of words. He can't say since the holidays? Anyway, we were on hold.
Screw your story. She's going to for our seven up next. We're praying your debts over.
Jason Lawrens dead.
Loud.
This is sorry, sorry, why don't you tell Melbourne what you were doing? Just then?
Well, you've got your son, Felix, and he, like many people in this run to the end.
Of school holidays.
Ideas, he's come to work with you.
And what are you doing playing operation? It's a great game, a thousand dollars co operation. Thank you, Felix. Who's better? You're mate?
Well, none of us has got any piece yet.
It's okay, thanks, we do the little radio thing. Yeah, let's try and get you out of debt Melbourne. We are playing debt rollette. How this works is you register your bills online OVERFM dot com Au or YA, then overplayer app or you can give us a ring. Kate in Frankston, Good morning.
Morning, Kate, Good morning go. Have the bills been adding up over summer?
They have, especially after Christmas.
You've been having fun, Kate, Yes, we have.
Have you got kids there, Kate?
No, I don't actually, but I love listening to you guys.
All right, Kate, I've got three bills here, here we go. We've got we've got the old rates bill, We've got a water bill, and we've got a gas bill. How this works. You pick the bill, we will see if.
We'll tap the card and see if it gets approved. And then if it does get approved, you can choose if you want to add another bill in, we'll tap it again, but if it gets declined, you lose it.
All okay, okay, first, what do you want to go for? First?
Oh? Do you want to do the biggie five hundred and thirty eight dollars rates bill? Oh?
Okay, all right, tap the card, Good luck, here we go. Yeah, paying your rates is five.
Hundred and thirty eight bucks sorted.
Oh my gosh, thank you now.
But this is where it gets fun.
Here's the dilemma.
Do you want to give us another bill and we'll tap the card and see if it gets paid. But you forget it gets declined, the rates are back on you as well.
It's very much like Operation No, it's nothing like Operation do you want to take? So you've got the water bill you sent in and that's two hundred and sixty six dollars, and you've sent another one in for forty one.
Dollars, which is a gas bill.
Are you happy having your rates paid?
I'm happy having the rates pay.
That's say no, it's up to her.

Good morning, Dean, thanks you time. This morning mate, No, good.
Morning, jas Lauren and Clint happy to be here.
What's happened?
And should the public be worried, Dean, because I think that's what we're all concerned about. Something like this happening in broad daylight is genuinely terrifying.
Look, and I do understand, you know, why people would think that, but we need to be conscious that I am very confident this was a targeted attack. You know, I am very confident that that's the case. It wasn't a random sort of shooting. This was very targeted at this particular individual. It's occurred, It's occurred in the car park underground car park of the apartment block where where Sam and his partner were staying. So, you know, whilst he is brazen, it is very much concern to us,
you know, whenever something like this occurs. But I just say to those in the community, just be aware that this was a targeted attack. You know, you're safe to go around and go about your business. And you know, we are working very very hard to identify those people responsible and hold them to account and hopefully be able to arrest them as soon as possible.
So as Victorians, we've all lived through an underworld war, you know, albeit what ten years ago, we are. We concerned that there will be retribution.
But there's always a chance that that will occur, but we don't have any information at this point in time to suggest that that will happen. You know, I said yesterday when I spoke to the media that, you know, I implore the family of Sam, his friends and associates to work with Victoria Police. If they are aware of information, they need to share it with us. We need to work together so that we can hold these people responsible.
And that what's that conversation, like, how's that going at the moment? Are you chatting with the family? Are they forthcoming with information?
Look, of course we're speaking to the family, we're speaking to the partner, but be very you know, we've got to be conscious they are. You know, they're very distressed. You know, they've gone through a traumatic incident yesterday. So we will continue to speak to them as we move forward. We've got to give them that space so that they can grieve and do what they have to do as a family, friends and associates. But we certainly will be continuing to speak with them as we move forward.
Hey, Dane, if you got any info on the gunman or potential gun men that you're hunting.
Look, you know, we're looking at a number of avenues at this point in time. But what I am really keen for your list is to take away from this is that we do have the white Porsche s u V. I believe it to be a McCann. We know that that was involved directly in the shooting that occurred yesterday.
We saw on fire right, yes, and we.
Do know that that Porsche when it left the car park, it made its way to a street in Reservoir where it was set a light. We are also we're also looking at a the possibility of a gray Ford Ranger may being involved as well. But the offenders may have got into after that burnt that Ford, after that burnt the Porsche, and we know that you know that Forward Ranger has made its way to Western Avenue in West
Meadows where that was set a light. Now we're working on the belief that is in bold given the timing and location. But I appeal to any of your listeners if they have seen this white Porsche McCann, if they have seen this gray Forward Ranger, it has a canopy on the back and it's got the bull horns on the rear the rear window of the canopy. Yeah, if you're pulled up behind it, you know those big you see on some of those cars. Please share that information
with crime stoppers or their nearest police station. It's before before the offense occurred. Lot. We know the shooting occurred just before ten thirty yesterday morning, but you know, I'm interested in the days beforehand. I'm interested in obviously post the shooting. So anyone that has any information, I asked that they share it with it.
Thank you so much for jumping on with us. Desponding Detective Inspector Dan Thomas from Victoria Police Homicide Squad.
It's a scene from a movie.
Yeah, seriously, Well we did make a movie out of the Last Underworld.
You know, it's just extraordinary. So I know, And don't get.
Me wrong, He's right, it's a targeted attack. But and we brought up this point before. I remember when there was a shooting in just over a year ago in South Yar. It's like, I think there's that feeling of hey, I don't want.
To be caught in the middle of no exactly, you know.
What I mean? All Right, we'll any more details, we'll getting on the air for you. Hear it and over it. A little bit of claud around today tops of twenty one we are going for.

What do you mean I overheard.
I'm sweating Clint. What have you done?
Well, he hasn't done it yet, but the planning is in the process.

Okay, that's good, that's okay. So I feel like this April might be a bit too soon. Do we do? We say her fortieth is the day?
Well, I'm not sure this is a negotiation you and I should get involved in. You might have to pay for the child.

Which is really strong. Have you thought of the baby's name yet.

Good morning Melbourne, and good morning to all the kids out there that are heading back to school today.
Some kids going for their first day of prep. I know, do you remember your first day of prep?
No?
Not really, sort of scratchy.
I remember being scratchy, scratchy. I remember being in prep, but I don't think I remember my.
First first teacher. Oh do you remember yours?
I think mine was mister Concilia.
I'll just never forget my year t teacher, missus Palmer. She didn't let me go to the bathroom and I pissed myself.
Oh, teachers are much nicer now than they were in eighteen hundreds.
Though, yeah, it wasn't the eighteen hundreds.
We said photos around yesterday of our prep photos, and click replied, I'm surprised yours is in color.
It really Hello Tim in Port Melbourne, Good morning.
Good morning, Tim morning. Do you remember your first day of prep? Yeah, correctly, good experience. Really okay, have a great day kids. It is a much nicer about Tim.

Like a grain of rice at the moment.
A team. You got a friends backs weekend that's going to come in handy. You enjoy all right, Oh definitely, thank you.
Good on your tim.
Premier premire the premiere.
Victoria is in the house. Good morning, good morning. Tell her what you just said to me off the air.
The kid's not listening. We high five kids back to school parents around the state.
Have you got in your house?
I've got two and one. We've got a high school started this week, primary school starter this week. So no, no, I've spread it out that much. No, No, I'm going back to going back to primary school. So last year my school, first year of high school in our house.
That's a big WAYLN Do you open the school bags and the lunch boxes is still there from last year?
Yeah, we did all that.
I was.
I tried to get more organized this year and do it, did it early January. But still it's a bit of work, you know, new uniform, school bags and kids.
They just keep growing and growing and growing.
Hey, good news for parents who have kids heading back to school. I saw the announcement that you're throwing a bit of coin their way.
Look, I think everyone knows about how tough it is at the moment. Costs, living pressures really real for so many and back to school costs they're one of the big things. You know, it comes at Christmas time.
New Years.
It's an expensive time. School shoes and school box. Kids grow little treasures, they grow, so you've got to.
Make sure you get a little treasures off the air now.
And my mum bought me school dresses that lasted like five years. They were just so big when I started, and I slowly grew into the rifty.
At your school, did they do that thing where they measure the length of the skirt to make sure.
We're in high in in like senior school, it was supposed to go to the knee, but they didn't measure it. But if it was too short, it's a problem. But we used to roll it up to make it shorter anyway to the school bone.
And so in order to help to help families with this expensive time of the year, we have rolled out the school saving bonus four hundred dollars per student.
It doesn't matter primary school, high school.
Primary school, high school's for government schools and for low fee paying non government school So about seven hundred students across the state eligible for it.
And the parents can spend that at Dan Murphy's or it's got to be.
It's targeted to uniforms because that is one of the big costs, and also camps and excursions because they're a big part of it. And also we know a few families that's one of the things that they don't do if they're feeling kids will miss out and you don't want your kids to miss out.
So how did they get there cash?
So it's been administered through through the schools. We wanted to make it as easy as possible and I can. I got some the I asked the team for the info for you this morning. As at this morning, we've had ninety five million dollars bonus. People need it, Yeah, and that means that's money that parents have for other things that they spend on, and it has I've been in my own I've been visiting the uniform shop a bit this summer with the kids, and I've seen parents
use it. I've seen you talking to that.
Do you do ours in the tuch shop at your kids home?
No?
I used to do a bit of reading in the classroom back in the day before I had Yeah, right, this job but no, I've been I was on uniform shop duty this year and it was really watching families use it. I could see how it was making a real difference.
Yeah, absolutely good, Well we've got you.
Can we talk about yesterday?
Yes, Sam abdul Rahim, this is horrifying and for many in the community, it's really scary. Are you confident that the homicide squad the police have got this in hand and should the public feel concerned?
Victoria Police, I think you might have been talking to them earlier as well. They're they're throwing They've got huge resources on this. They have their organized crime task courses and work incredibly hard. The advice I have, the advice at vic Pole's given given me, is that this was targeted, very clear like it's horrifying, horrifying scenes. It must be have been very distressing for the local community. But it was a targeted It was a targeted.
And I know everyone keeps saying that, and we were in this discussion before because there was a shooting in South there.
A similar circumstances targeted attack.
But at the end of the day, it's if I was in that car park yesterday, you know, and all hell breaks loose, you know people are concerned that they're going to be.
Absolutely, that's a totally natural reaction. Look, I can take the vic Pole advice. They're saying it was targeted. They're saying there's no broader risk to the community, and we know that vic Pole they've got eyes on these groups and they are throwing that through a lot of resources at the work.
Okay, well, while we're talking about feeling safe in the community, we have got a huge problem here with youth crime. A lot of finger pointing is going towards you and the government.
What are we doing about it?
Because I think people are more Honestly, what I saw yesterday, I'm not as concerned about as someone's stealing a car, a kid stealing a car, getting arrested and then getting released again.
Home invasion.
It feels like it's out of control.
No, there's no doubt. There's no doubt. The stats tell you, your lived experience tells you that we have seen an increase in that sort of behavior, particularly from there's some groups. And again this is the advice I get from vic Pol. There's a group of young offenders and they are repeat offenders. So in recognizing this is a real issue in the community.
The Victorian Parliament. We passed some laws last year to give the courts and the police stronger powers, stronger powers to deal with the youth offenders, not great them bail, not.
Because I feel like the police are doing their job and these kids again frustrating.
Was it in Queensland? I saw over the holidays that they've lowered the age.
Yeah, adult crime atut time, that is what it's been, bad as unbelievable.
Yeah, look that's that's Queensland's pathway. What we've chosen to do is give police more powers and the courts.
Too, and also well powers but what about the courts because its these kids are just going.
There's stronger bail requirements, stronger new offenses if you commit about not getting bail, if you commit a serious offense.
While you're on bail. But it feels like it's not happening.
Well, these laws are being rolled out right now and it is. You know, we're giving the courts these powers, We're giving the cops these powers. And then I also want to flag we're rolling out this year electronic monitoring so on some of these youth offenders, the offenders, electronic monitoring because we need to make sure that there's an accountability.
Absolutely, but as long as if someone's monitoring them and they leave their house, that we go and pick them up. Because I mean, without sounding like an old grumpy man, it's like it's like we're saying, oh, we've now got air tag technology.
It feels like these kids are out smarting the system. Like I don't know, and hang on, hang on, I don't know if you saw that video the other day of that kid who was driving and he was filming himself saying, I do this because I can, because I'm going to get lad out again.
Like and that's why we needed the That's why we needed those law changes. And also too, I can flag with you this morning, like if we need to do more, we will. We need to do more, we will. We've passed the fields like we need to do. And this is something again, I hear this from hear this from police, hear this from people in communities right across the state. And what you said Lauren before about that frustrating that people. It's frustrating, you know, the repeats.
So when are those bracelets coming?
So we're rolling at that trial this year in terms of the electronic monitoring.
And it is, we get the monitoring, lock them up. I say, if someone breaks into my house at two o'clock in the morning, mate, they need to be locked down.
Well, that's again why we've made those bail changes.
Just finally, you'll a politician say, polls will come and go. I mean the most recent one had the primary aiate at around twenty two percent. I mean, why aren't the public buying what you're selling?
Look, I absolutely expect understand, and again it comes from talking to people. Community wants more from their governments, which we've been talking this morning about the cost of living pressures. Absolutely know that that's a real pressure for households and families across the state. It's why we've got the school saving bonus. It's why last week we announced a fuel plan, a fair fuel plan to save motorists hundreds of dollars
a year on fuel. I absolutely accept that governments me, people like me, and these leadership roles, we've got to work harder. We've got to understand where the community is at, listen to the community and respond to what they're telling it. And particularly on cost of living. It's real, it's hurting people. And my commitment is to fight for those households and families because.
Much to come in whereby isn't there in a little while by election there no And.
Look that is absolutely right. But governments and all political parties are put to the test at election times. That's why we live in these wonderful democracy.
Okay, listen to Alan the premieer with us this morning. Just quickly.
I know that that money for kids going back to school is a huge relief. So if people do need it, they do they deal with the school. How a lot of people find out.
So families will have got emails from their schools.
Like last year, Oh so many emails.
I know.
We love compass.
Parents onto the parent app. Let me tell you about the camp coming up.
Okay, but we need the cash, so what do we do? We can't find the email?
We talked to school, Talk to the school, talk the school and what's it called? The school stafe saving bonus our school? Can I give a shout out to the admin teams in school.
I was about to say they are fabulous.
And they are making sure that this money is getting right.
To the people who need it.
Just center Al and join us on the air this morning. Thanks for coming in, mate, Good to see you guys. Forgive it is just go on twenty six past eight. Hey you coming up next. We've been talking about back to school.

I know how've run out of ideas. I think a kid, can you take him into parliament.
With its work experience and he wants a job.
Well I got rid of one of them, but we have to.
Have some load of laws.
Oh we don't have any rules in here. It's fine, we got them working.
Oh bad.

They're out in the yard coming on their food without their teeth. Hey, we were chatting about this gang land shooting a little bit earlier. It's honestly, it's like a script from Underbelly. We were talking with Detective Inspector Dean Thomas from the Vicpol homicide Squad earlier.
It is scary, absolutely so brazen.
Yeah, ten in the morning, it's crazy. But yes, we were chatting with Dean Thomas on the homicide Squad earlier, who put a call out to our listeners because the cops need your help.
I appeal to any of your listeners if they have seen in this white Porsche McCann, if they have seen this gray Forward Ranger, it has a canopy on the back and it's got the bull horns on the rear window. I'm interested in the days beforehand. I'm interested in obviously post the shooting. So anyone that has any information on us that they do, you share that information with crime stoppers or their nearest police station.
A number of cars were torched after the shooting yesterday, so.
It's it's scary because things like this, I mean, but you like to hope that there's no guns floating around Melbourne.
And then your his stories like this, what Dean sounds like he's good at his job. Do you think you sounded very very oden?
Do you mean Detective Inspector Dean Thomas, the Victorian policemies.
I'm glad you're not the police commissioner. I like your time will make you sorry.
To be honest, Thomas made me feel safe.
To did he Yeah, like Tom Croydon.
He's gonna he's gonna work.

I don't know there was an incline from our office.
Yeah, there's one step.
It's a big step. I've got my eleven year old Felix in here today because, let's face it, it's the end of school holidays. I am completely out of cash and ideas, so I've just dragged him into work, just trying to log his iPad onto the Wi fi here at work.
But you can't do any fun stuff on the office WiFi.

I'm still playing it now.
I don't think you can get that on the office wi fi?
He means in real law.
Now, why do you want the office WiFi for?
I'm trying to get him online. He's bored.
I'm just well, it's boring coming to work with your parents, But lots of parents are doing it.
Parents are hanging by a threat.
My dad used to working in car dealerships, and we'd go there on the holidays and I'd lock myself in the boot and they'd all.
Be looking for me of all the cars in the car yards.
I'd be like, I'm bored of these people, and I'd go and lock myself in the cars, lock myself in the boot, and then when I'd won attention, I'd start tooting all the horns.
I wasn't a nightmare at all. Many parents can relate to this.
Everyone's at the end of their tether on school holidays, including my friend beck Judd, who has gone viral because she posted a photo of her twin son's bedrooms and wrote, last day of this back to school, you go boys. I'm considering boarding school for the twins at this point. I've also googled military school. There's one in Queensland, but they're too young.
Oh, she googled military.
Shit them to military school because they're just good messy.
Do you know what I mean?
Messy twin boys?
Do you know the threat I use this summer with the kids. They don't like the holiday program at school, so I got the laptop up and logged in and showed them all the available dates.
Of the holiday you don't behave yourselves, You're off to school for that that they run.
They run up like military school, and yeah, if they misbehaved it go right. Well, let's log into the portal. See if there's any days.
I'm the portal. I'm surprised you knew how to get on the portal? How do I get on the portal? I can't just make one up. I'll never know. So it's a good threat parents, the threats that parents dangle over kids to get them to behave.
Thirteen twenty fourteen. Should we finished the show.
With how low'd you go?
Threats against kids?
Threats failed threats?
Thirteen to bribe your kid with over the holidays?

You're happy with their choice of ice cream flavor.
Her favorite is the.
The Magnum.
Ego, the caramel three and one.

And she just kept behaving like a brat because she wanted you to regret your decision until you ate the whole box in one sitting.

Strawberry goes first, then chocolate vanilla.
