In today's episode of the Wake Up Sydney podcast, host Johnny Rocket greets listeners with an upbeat report on the weather, traffic, and train conditions for Monday, June 23, 2025.
Sydney is enjoying an unseasonably warm winter's day with temperatures rising to 22 degrees under sunny skies, making it perfect for a beach stroll or outdoor activities.
Traffic, however, proves a bit challenging with an incident on the M4 at Mays Hill causing delays for westbound lanes due to a multi-vehicle accident, while a broken-down car on the Hume Motorway adds to the commute woes. In contrast, the train services in Sydney are running smoothly without any disruptions.
To brighten the start of the week, Johnny highlights cultural events such as the Archibald Prize 2025 exhibit at the Art Gallery of New South Wales and the Australian debut of Norwegian violinist Johan Dalene at City Recital Hall, promising an evening of classical music by Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev.
Johnny concludes by celebrating the privilege of living in a vibrant city like Sydney, encouraging listeners to enjoy the sunshine, art, and local culture.
