Please do not keep saying WARREN-JERRY When referencing the place you are broadcasting from. Take some time to practise how it should be said. Doing so will be more respectful.

I am a bit surprised Norman doesn’t ‘get’ the ADHD thing. If you have an ADHD diagnosis you are eligible for NDIS support. A friend of mine pays her babysitter $25/hour. The sitter told her she charges NDIS $45/hour. So the NDIS parents get free babysitting while the NDIS gets a hefty charge. I have listened every week since coronacast, great show, thank you.
