Do Brisbane's early birds need a stronger "dawn economy"? Has reality TV gone too far? What's new on B105 next year? And where will Mister Brisbane be going at the end of next week? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

According to analysis of my DNA, I am "moderately likely to experience mood changes influenced by music". Lah-dee-dah.

Fun fact. What used to be the URL for the Australian production of the musical Love Never Dies now points to a sport news site.

Mister Brisbane asks: Which radio station will be the first to surrender its licence? Also: who were you listening to 35 years ago? And: a popular presenter moves (further) south. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

Thus inspiring a blockbuster miniseries, Gateshead Unvisited.

Kyle Sandilands is always in the news. Do we need to know his every move? Plus: is Ray Hadley coming back to 4BC and 2GB? Also: how I was silenced! It's all in Mister Brisbane. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

I’m guessing it was before.

... and I thought my old diaries were hot.

According to analysis of my DNA, I am "less likely to be able to focus on specific tasks". Now here's a picture of a cat.

Neither the Coles app nor website is working. I guess they are Down Down.

What's the point of a news-talk radio station if the "news" is recorded hours before it goes to air? Does the medium lack its former sense of immediacy? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

OK, so the Brisbane 2032 logo is visually appealing, but the assertion that the "eye" represents Brisbane and South East Queensland is just wrong, as this overlay (with SEQ shaded) demonstrates. #brisbane2032

The Brisbane 2032 logo debacle was not about revealing “Queensland’s most talked about secret”. It was a slip up, and we should embrace the funny side. But Games organisers should seriously look at incorporating an Ibis into the mascot mix. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

The little film that beat the odds is now available for online purchase, and will make its way to streaming soon. But could there be a sequel? Coyote vs ACME vs Alien vs Predator, perhaps? nationalseniors.com.au/news/…

Two men and a woman. Is this paint-by-numbers approach to creating radio shows doing more harm than good? Mister Brisbane also asks whether changes are imminent at ABC radio and TV, and: Is Kyle Sandilands really being hacked? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

As daylight saving approaches again, the media is treating Queenslanders like chumps. Also: I review the new arrangements on radio, and how 2GB gets to keep its traffic reporter but 4BC doesn't. And: Is Bob Katter's great banana split a good idea? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

According to analysis of my DNA, I am "less likely to attend music concerts". True, if we're comparing me now to me 30 years ago.

Some shocking stats about radio listening habits have shaken a normally unflappable futurologist. Is radio as we know it on a road to nowhere? Also: Why is the ABC doubling down on music from the 1980s? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

Are TV and radio stations going for broke or just going broke? Will sport save them. Did they stupidly cede territory to podcasters thanks to an obsession with "reality" and game shows? misterbrisbane.substack.com/…

Mister Brisbane asks: is there too much Eighties music on the radio? Why not every radio presenter is taking a holiday. Angry Anderson at peace. misterbrisbane.substack.com/…
