Airport Chaos, Honey Bees In Danger & Wo...

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

Keeping up with the daily news cycle can be hard, especially if you have little ones who need your constant attention, so we’ve created a new show to get you and your family up to speed, weekly.

In around 15 minutes, you and your little ones will all be up to speed on what’s happening in the world, including a sports wrap, perfect for your commute to Saturday sport.

In this episode, we take a look at why Australia's airports are so busy right now as millions of Aussies go on holiday. Then we will be speaking to a beekeeper to find out why our honey bees are in danger from a tiny insect. And finally we head to London to look at all the traditions that make Wimbledon the most prestigious tennis competition in the world.
