BONUS - Herding Cows in Kayaks - Lou & the Brisbane Floods of 2022
Bluey's Brisbane - A podcast by Bridge Media
Categories:
After days of torrential rain and what meteorologists termed a rain bomb, many parts of Brisbane went under as the Brisbane River and many suburban creeks flooded.It's the most severe flooding in Brisbane since 2011, but this time around what caught many locals out was just how fast the water rose.Lou lives in the suburb of Oxley which is in Brisbane's south west - it was devastated by the floods in 2011, and while I couldn't get in to speak to her in person because of the flooding, I managed to get her on the phone to chat about what Oxley was going through.There were plenty of good news stories as well, like the cows rescued from a shed roof by a group of kayakers.Bonus fact - Oxley is one of Dave McCormack aka Bandit Heeler's favourite Brissy suburbs - we know because he dropped that factoid when we got the chance to interview him last year. You can listen to that episode here.Making a donation to GIVIT is the best way to support flood victims in South East Queensland and Northern New South Wales.Bluey's Brisbane is the podcast that explores the real life world of your favourite Heeler family.Hosted by Justin Rouillon and Lou Bromley - follow us on Facebook and Instagram - @blueysbrisbane
