It was lots of fun to learn where our best bakeries are. Heats in Cockburn was a surprise that many callers say have the best donuts. Rottnest Bakery wasn’t a surprise nomination and it’s a great example of what we like about our favourite bakeries when we travel. They’re part of that rite of passage moment that defines your arrival. You haven’t really arrived on Rottnest until you’ve been to the bakery.

Williams Woolshed has a sausage roll that will get you through the day and Mount Barker with its range of gourmet pies was a popular choice.

A good bakery can be a reason to travel or it might just be the traditional break on your way to somewhere down the road.

Many bakeries are on the main streets of country towns. The Toodyay Bakery has a balcony veranda overlooking the Main Street, perfect for watching the world go by as you wait for your cottage pie to cool down.

On 6PR with Rusty, we swam with dolphins, watched some bilbies and even made time to debate whether a cream bun should have mock cream or real cream.

Enjoy listening to the show on the bar below. Let me know if it inspires you to head down to Dryandra or Rockingham or anywhere that’s got an animal experience you can be a part of.

From rites of passage and pilgrimage experiences like Gallipoli, Kokoda and the Western Front. From lesser known but no less important sites at Parit Sulong, Sandakan and Roebuck Bay; we visit these sites for understanding, respect and perspective.

This summer, I accepted a challenge by Christina Morrissy to present a daily segment on 6PR that explored themes and genres of music while attempting to sound like I knew what I was talking about. Listen below to our episode on movie themes. How did I go?
