  2. FLOOD UPDATE - with Senior Sergeant Dale Long

    It's been a while between podcasts, but given there's potentially a flood emergency on our hands and this is a community service, it seemed like a good idea to get Senior Sarge Longy in for a chat about floods and common sense.

  3. S4 | 24th September | MRCC Mayor Liam Wood

    Just a quick debrief and catch up with Mildura Rural City Council Mayor Liam Wood. These chat's are always pretty relaxed and casual which I think is important so we can inform people on Council processes, opportunities and issues without the obstacle of formal language. I know being approachable...

  4. S4 | Jesse "Funky Cold" Medina, Jesse Zaffina & Seamus Mitchell

    It's all about the Jesse's and the sport this week... still. Jesse Medina was a main event fight at the Demolition event a few weeks ago and things didn't go his way but in this episode we really get into the sports psychology and figure out why. He's also looking for another fight before the end...

  5. S4 | Grand Final Edition Part II with The Aikman's, Donny & Tina

    With the SFNL Grand Final tomorrow we thought it only proper to have Donny in to talk about Under 16's and Tina Zappia in to talk about the under 13's. Jane & Pete Aikman called in to talk about B grade netball, tennis and the crops.

  7. S4 | 19th August | Donny, Louie & Jade

    Two weeks in a row, not only to have a weekly episode for the first time in months, but to have the same team back in the studio! What a treat and it allowed us to discuss everything that's happened this week including the footy and Ethan Gill getting off his charge at the tribunal, B Grade…

  8. S4 | 12th August | Louie Bulzomi, Connie on MABF & Donny

    We all have a dream. You have a dream, I have a dream. Where would we be if we didn't have dreams and ambitions. Some of us realise those dreams, some go unrequited. Louie Bulzomi has never given up on his dreams. He's thought about it, but he's persisted and persisted and a few weeks ago, he got...

  9. S4 | 30th June | Phil Lamattina on drag racing and the football netball club

    This is a community podcast so it's open for anyone who wishes to utilise it. We like facts, don't like rumour and innuendo and like to get things out in the open. We're adults here. Granted, at times, someone's truth, is slightly different to someone else's truth and that's ok we're human. My...

  10. S4 | STORYTIME | Kim O'Reilly - It's Never OK!

  12. S4 | 3rd June | Donny Falvo, James Zappia & Nathan Falvo on the Finke Desert Race

    This year we've got four riders hitting the red centre for the Tatts Finke Desert Race and I, for one, and gutted I can't be there to witness it. Nathan Falvo, Phil & Broden Connell, Nicholas Boyd are all being supported by their mechanic Joey Heeps in their quest to finish the unforgiving two…

    more
  13. S4 | Episode 130 | A full dance card of different topics

    It really is a full dance card this week! It had to be with so many things happening. First is obviously Phil Lamattina after a win at Heathcote last weekend putting him just 10 points shy of the top of the table in the Top Fuel Championships, it would be remise of us not to have him in. We also...

  14. 16th May | Senior Sergeant Dale Long | Jesse on MMA and Justin from Elders

    It's been a while, but things have been hectic so we do episodes when we can get them out these days.

    more
  15. S4 | 29th April | Donny Falvo & The Anzac Day Address

    There's a bit of moisture around so Donny was able to make it into the studio this week to have a chat about the Don Falvo B & F medal which was an honour bestowed upon him last week. Charlie is still too cool to come in but hopefully next week at some point, after he's come back to earth…

    more
  16. Easter Special - Senior Sergeant Dale Long, RLTC Easter Tournament & CFA

    There's so much going on over Easter we thought we needed an extra episode to cover it all.

Al and Vicki are in to talk...

    Trav Bussell, long time friend of the show, is now working at MVAC as the Men's Time Out Services Co-ordinator. What exactly does this mean?

    more
  18. S4 | 28th March | Bec Marciano & Peter our mental health clinician at RDHS

    It's a bit of a random one this week. We'v had a lot going on and with a long list of people waiting to make an appearance on this podcast, we're falling behind a couple of weeks in terms of appearances. RDHS has a new mental health clinician which is terrific and the walk in clinic is still...

  22. S4 | 5th Feb | The three stooges talking about nothing & everything

    Apparently some of you enjoy when it's just the three of us sitting around the table chewing the fat. It's probably not as candid as when the mics are off but you get the idea. Remember, if you'd like to support this podcast financially sign up to become a VIP at patreon.com/thevalepodcast

  23. S4 | 21st January 2022 | Episode 120 | 'The Finisher' & Dr Anne Webster MP

    Donny needs to remember to treat every microphone as if it's hot. Right after he signed off on this week's episode he made a little remark with I think, he thinks, I didn't record.... but I did. And I left it in. We chat hail storms & cricket with Donny, we touch on Interleague which is not going...

  24. SEASON 4 | 14th January | Kato's message to the Tongan and wider community

    Kato Holani who you might know as Kato from the pharmacy was in ICU for weeks after contracting Covid-19. Kato was unvaccinated. Past tense.

  25. SEASON 4 | Episode 118 | 7th January | Just a quick update

  30. S3 | Episode 113 | 19th November | All your favourites + Brad Fyfe from Solunar

    Everyone wanted to have a say, and for someone who used to be quite hesitant to come in for a chat in front of a microphone, Ben Rogers from Pioneer Ford certainly doesn't take much convincing now. As soon as he found out we were in the studio on Wednesday this week he was straight over the road...

  31. S3 | Episode 112 | 12th November | Tom Lister, Ethan the Intern, Bobby Hammet & Mildura Living

    There's rumours of a ghostly presence around Euston Station although Bobby has never seen him, but with such history in the place how could Edmund Morey not have some sort of attachment to the place he founded. We hear more from Bobby in this week's Mildura Living feature and talk to Toni &…

  32. S3 | Episode 111 | 6th November | Leon on basketball, Trav on cricket & Bobby on Euston Homestead

    Use the good china, drink champagne from your special glasses, use your wedding knife to cut cake for afternoon tea - just celebrate every little thing you can, because you never know what is around the corner.

  34. S3 | Episode 109 | 23rd October 2021 | Mildura Living Magazine, Seamus Mitchell & Kirsten Lloyd

    Kirsten Lloyd is a name you've no doubt seen on many a written piece in Mildura Living Magazine, and you've undoubtably read her work, possibly without even knowing it.

  35. S3 | Episode 108 | 15th October | Jamie Siddons

    The resurgence of the Robinvale Euston Rangers Cricket Club has brought a few former local cricketers, a few very handy cricketers, and the odd international cricketers out of the woodwork willing to chip in whatever it takes to get things happening. Jamie Siddons is arguably one of Robinvale's...

  36. S3 | Episode 107 | 8th October | The Jack & Dragon Boating

    The last two years has been the hardest retailers and our hospitality operators will hopefully ever have to deal with, but with our vaccination rates now getting up there, we may be through the worst of it. We had Al Mitchell in to talk about how the Robinvale Bridge Motel is going, the Jack and...

  37. S3 | Episode 106 | Donny, Charlie & Koalas

    We all love one of Charlie's stories that have little to zero relevance to the conversation taking place at that particular time and he doesn't let us down again this week with a little anecdote about koalas! Just a little warning, there is some colourful language throughout this episode. Nothing...

  38. S3 | Episode 105 | 30th September | Saturday Afternoon Fever with Matthew Hardy

    There is some language and adult themes in this podcast. We do also actually use the term "wet dream" just FYI.

  42. S3 | Episode 101 | 27th August | Z & Zee Ausmumpreneur finalist

    The last thing we really want to talk about is case numbers, lockdowns, Covid responses and vaccines, so we don't, at least until the very end. Being a local news media service, we do have to report the relevant news of the day. We can't avoid it, but we can dilute it with some positive news…

  43. S3 | Episode 100 | August 20th | Dominic Mezzatesta on finding himself and joining the ADF

    Everyone has a story. Some are long, some are short. Some are interesting, some have twists and turns, and a thickening plot at every chapter, but everyone has a story. I think that's what I love about having a platform like a podcast. I love learning about people's stories. Since my early 20's I...

  47. S3 | Episode 96 | 9th July | Charlie's chicken out & Norsiyah on the Census!

    Yes, I know it's a few days late, I apologise, but these podcast things take a lot of time and energy to produce, something I've been lacking in both areas the last couple of weeks. Add to that, the lack of sleep we're all going through with the Euro's, Wimbledon, the US motocross (that…
