Presenter of ABC’s Sunday morning’s Australia All Over, Ian Macnamara, offers much information on his legendary program, noting on Sunday that ‘daylight saving’ was a misnomer -’there is no saving’ he points out. The other term is ‘free trade’ – ‘free? – hardly’, he says tongue in cheek.

As the program title says, it’s Australia All Over and listeners phone in from across the country and often overseas. A recent caller from Narrabri was keen to talk about Australian gastroenterologist Professor Thomas Borody who has suggested his research into drugs to combat COVID-19 has been extremely promising. Prof Borody has an international reputation – he is famous for ground-breaking work developing the triple therapy cure for peptic ulcers in 1987.
