Reaching 300,000 of Australia's Wise and Wonderful Every Day

Saturday Edition | AM

Good morning

Hey members! It’s the last weekend of June! Who would have thought six months had passed just like that? Now, get ready to start the second half of the year with me (Blue) as we answer yesterday’s riddle:

A lake deep in a white castle has seen many kings on a lonely throne. As a monster may whistle, if by accident you blow the horn. What am I?

The correct answer is… toilet! Were you able to flush out the correct answer? Congratulations, expect a shout-out below! Now, for today’s ‘What Would The Grandkids Say?’ segment, we have the terms ‘cap’, which means ‘a lie’, and ‘no cap’, which means ‘true’. The next time you notice your grandkid telling an exaggerated story, you already know that’s probably cap.
