Let’s mellow out to David Bowie and think about ch ch ch changes in our world today, whether it be terrorism, entertainment viewing, or support for global movements. Brad and Jacqui have you covered this week.

Brad has a question for Jacqui, who is unabashedly addicted to her smart phone. If she could only use one app for a week, which one would she choose? Jacqui uses several important applications in her life, but she happily throws them out the window for some scrolling pleasure. Brad’s on the hot seat for this week’s trivia, which is simply, what came first? Test yourself against Jacqui’s questions.

Jacqui’s news comes from northern Africa, where French forces have mounted a successful operation to kill Al Qaeda North Africa chief, Abdelmalek Droukel. She and Brad discuss France’s war with Islamic militants in Mali, and the enduring nature of terrorism. The hosts contrast the threat of terrorism to other threats, such as pandemics.

Brad wants to discuss HBO Max, a new subscription on demand streaming service. There’s now a complicated landscape of streaming services, including under the HBO banner. Has the ultimate disrupter in entertainment finally succumbed to previous models? And what does this mean for Australian viewers?

Finally, in this week’s blue-sky thinking segment, Jacqui wants to know what brings about substantial change in the world. The Black Lives Matter movement has seen public opinion move incredibly fast over the last two weeks, and the two hosts wrestle with what has preceded and brought about this change, when change had not occurred before. Does change have to come with a great tidal wave of movement, or can it be affected by a small group of willing people? As with blue-sky thinking segments, there are rarely any answers, and lots of questions to dissect.

As always, send us some love on Twitter @shootinbreezes. And tell us what ch ch ch changes you are seeing in your community. Until next week!
