087-Allison-Russell-Adelaide Photo Steve DavisAllison Russell from History SA joins us tonight to take us through a number of History SA projects and stories from South Australia’s past just in time for Anzac Day, including a new project, Bar Yarns.

Allison particularly concentrates on how WWI was experienced here in South Australia.

Nigel picks up the Anzac theme in our historic news quiz, IS IT NEWS, and uncovers some blatant racism, censorship and 1,000 asses.

In the Made to Move Minute, Max Martin talks about Exercise as a diffuser of stress for our veterans.

David from Sunday Assembly Adelaide reflects on the SUN.

Our music tonight will lighten the mood – it’s from Mr Goodnight with Walk Away.

The SA Drink Of The Week comes all the way from a Port Lincoln winery this week.

And we start with David Washington from In Daily with the midweek news wrap, Talk Of The Town.
