After four decades in law enforcement, Roger Sutherland brings a wealth of experience to our conversation, guiding us through the fascinating entwining of music and memory. We kick things off by embracing nostalgia, celebrating the golden days of radio and iconic DJs like Donnie Lunn and Alan Lappin. Roger reveals his latest musical obsession, Lola Young's "Messy," while we share our favorite karaoke hits, including classics from the Monkees and Australian Crawl. The conversation naturally segues into the timeless appeal of Cold Chisel's "Khe Sanh" and why certain songs linger in our minds long after the tunes have stopped.
Shift work, especially during the holiday season, takes center stage as we delve into the unique challenges faced by those working unconventional hours. From police officers to hospitality workers, we highlight the sacrifices and resilience required to maintain balance between personal and professional lives during festive times. Personal stories and listener anecdotes paint a vivid picture of the dedication it takes to thrive in these demanding roles, often filled with emotional and physical tolls. Roger reflects on his lengthy career in policing, touching on the evolving job nature and the frustrations of judicial challenges faced by officers.
We also explore the broader impacts of shift work on health and well-being, alongside the financial compensations tied to these demanding schedules. Whether it's the pros and cons of afternoon shifts or the intricacies of bail conditions, our discussions offer a deep dive into the unseen struggles and surprising benefits experienced by shift workers. Tune in for heartfelt stories, insightful reflections, and a celebration of those who work tirelessly behind the scenes, providing a compelling narrative that honors their dedication and perseverance.
