| 4/30/26 |  Ep 104: Libby Price _ Part B | Send us Fan Mail This is Part B with Libby Price, picking up after one of the toughest chapters of her career—reporting on Black Saturday. We dive into a powerful question: how do you cover tragedy and still stay human?

She’s interviewed Prime Ministers, built a reputation as a tough, no-filter journalist, and even had John Howard approach her—not the other way around. But ... | 31m 51s | ||||||

From the opal fields of Lightning Ridge—mud, water, and brown snakes—we explore a side of life many don’t see. Danny reflects on the constant movement of touring, from northern gigs to the south coast, and how songs can be born anywhere—even scribbled on a napkin mid-flight. There’s plenty of light along the way—cheeky sc... | 28m 58s | ||||||

Across three episodes, we cover life on the farm near Albury, NSW, the influence of his grandfather, and the unbelievable story of buying his farm at auction.

| 3/9/26 |  Ep 96: Serradella for new environments | Send us Fan Mail In this episode, I’m on a property just south of Yass in NSW, joining a research project funded by Meat & Livestock Australia and led by Dr Rebecca Haling from CSIRO. We’re taking a closer look at serradella — a self-regenerating legume that’s drought resilient, fixes nitrogen, handles acidic soils, runs on low nutrients, and carries a low bloat risk. It’s already proven in WA and north-west NSW, and now researchers are exploring its fit in the higher rainfall pasture zon... | 24m 20s | ||||||

We also talk fortified wines — world-famous, and s... | 32m 21s | ||||||
| 1/29/26 |  Ep 90: Chambers Rosewood Vineyards _ Part A | Send us Fan Mail Today, we’re at Chambers Rosewood Vineyards with Stephen Chambers — a sixth-generation family winery woven into the fabric of Victoria’s gold country. These are soils shaped by history: once turned by gold seekers, now nurturing vines, grazing sheep, and generations of stories layered as deep as the roots beneath them. In Part A, Stephen reflects on the gold days, the pressures of farming through changing seasons, the mishaps that inevitably come with life on the land, and th... | 39m 07s | ||||||
| 1/22/26 |  Ep 89: Gooramadda Olives _ Part B | Send us Fan Mail Welcome back to Gooramadda Olives for Part B with Rob Whyte. It starts at breakfast, with a quiet truth: once you use really good olive oil, the tomato sauce bottle doesn’t stand a chance. We talk about the health benefits of quality olive oil, how the body can respond differently to things like ibuprofen, and why what you choose to cook with actually matters. Rob shares practical tips for using olive oil every day, pairing olives with wine, and describing flavour without the... | 39m 08s | ||||||
| 1/15/26 |  Ep 88: Gooramadda Olives _ Part A | Send us Fan Mail Today we’re at Gooramadda Olives in North East Victoria with Rob Whyte. Rob grew up on the land near Sydney — until the city grew around him. His career took him from Burke’s Backyard to IT roles with Qantas and IBM, far removed from farming. Then he and his wife Melanie found Rutherglen. A block with a view near the river came up for sale — and it happened to be an olive farm. They took the leap, changed everything, and now Rob writes just one w... | 43m 15s | ||||||

I’m Leona and this time, Darren is on the other side of the interview. It’s not a role he’s naturally comfortable with, but we gently turn the microphone around and explore the story behind the storyteller. We talk about his earlies... | 43m 20s | ||||||

| 12/18/25 |  Ep 84: David Grigg _ Part A | Send us Fan Mail In this special episode, it’s a true privilege to share the story of my great uncle David — a quiet gentleman whose life spans nearly a century of Australian history. Born in 1926, David grew up on the land during a time of hardship and simplicity: no electricity, one bath a week, horses working the paddocks, cows milked by hand, and seasons shaped by drought, rabbits and resilience. At just 14, he left school to work the farm, and during wartime, while others went to battle,... | 27m 53s | ||||||
