Show Notes
There is some language and adult themes in this podcast. We do also actually use the term "wet dream" just FYI. We’re a little late with this one but there has been school holidays, long weekends and camping trips to be had, so I apologise. But it was time for something a little different, so I called in a favour from a former colleague. Matthew Hardy, author, comedian, radio personality & podcast host, and I used to work together at Melbourne’s Nova 100. He and Lawrence Mooney now host a podcast called Saturday afternoon fever, which is Matthew reading the book he wrote of the same title, and the Moon Man butting in with his own stories. It’s a great premise for a podcast but I came to learn that Matt actually lived in Robinvale for a time during his mis-spent youth. His policeman Father sent him up here to live with his Policeman brother and pick grapes in about 1990, so there’s a loose local connection, but it was a good excuse for a bit of cross promotion to be honest. This was recorded a few weeks back when we were possibly still in lockdown and the book was still available to buy, it has since sold out but you can listen to Matt and the Moon man’s podcast Saturday Afternoon Fever, wherever you’re listening to this. The video will be available for our VIP's only at Patreon: patreon.com/thevalepodcast

THIS PODCAST WAS RECORDED ON TUESDAY 6TH DECEMBER - BEFORE FURTHER ROAD CLOSURES OCCURRED ON WEDNESDAY. A further update will occur in the coming days.
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.
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 is as important to Mayor Wood as it is to me and these chats are exactly that. Easy, approachable real time conversations.
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 of the year before he goes looking for a rematch so watch this space. The other Jesse this week is Jesse Zaffina who has my full admiration. This young man is becoming an Ambulance Community Officer so we chat about that and why he didn't end up in the Army like he'd planned after year 12. Then we get to Seamus who has escaped the first round of delisting's before trade period despite only playing less than half the season. We're hoping for the best for your Seamo.
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.
