Lu & Jarch

Summary

Mildura celebrates the unveiling of a giant sultana, marking 100 years of Sunbeam Sultanas. The oversized fiberglass creation, measuring 525 times the size of a standard sultana, took 13 weeks to construct and features a smiley face to enhance its appeal. The installation aims to honor local workers and will remain on display for a year before its future is reassessed.

In a related discussion, the hosts of a local podcast, Lou and Jarch, express their enthusiasm for big things in regional areas and brainstorm ideas for similar installations. They consider the small town of Jacket Up, part of the Noongarup Shire, as a potential site for a new big attraction. Suggestions include a giant jacket potato, a large tractor, or even a massive Malleefowl, which is an endangered bird native to the region. The hosts emphasize the importance of celebrating small towns and their unique identities through these larger-than-life installations.

Jarch has developed a concerning habit, and we go LOUDER for the POWDERfinger tickets. SEEYA TOMORROW! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
