  • Everything you need to know about Adelaide!

    Wow, talk about consistency and putting in the work! Steve has been putting out a weekly episode since 2014 and from the start the quality seems to have always been there. Have only listened fully to some of the more recent episodes and you can tell the energy, enthusiasm and overflowing joy is still there. I have never heard anyone be so enthusiastic and eloquent about wine and their state!

  • Great to be to be a local

    Nigel and Steve what a great pair. As a proud South Australian, great to hear 'local' stories and the long form chats provide for a very relaxed format. Those that like a tipple, there is a 'Drink of the Week' that comes with delightful audio tasting-notes.

    Best is the research and thoughtfulness put into every epsiode The Adelaide Show does.

  • Still going strong.

    After hearing this podcast was going to shut up shop it has brought me joy to realise its still ticking along.

    Local interviews, passionate people, varied subjects. All carefully wrought and well produced.

    A professional production for casual listening.

    Might benefit from being short but that’s the only criticism, as I find it takes a few listens to get through.

    The local music segment and the fake/real news quiz is both informative and entertaining

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

426 - Is The ALP Guaranteed Victory In The 2026 South Australian Election?
Q: What are the foundational elements of the ALP in South Australia you think still shape its strategy today?
The conversation highlights the ALP's historical roots in the working class, its long-running tension with the upper house, and a shift toward professionalization and technocratic governance while trying to maintain a worker-friendly image; this mix continues to influence how the party presents itself and strategizes in elections.
429 - Kadina Lawyers And The Real World Of Rural Law
Q: In the world of movies and books, are there any lawyers, fictional or real, who actually do a good job and are reproduced faithfully for our enjoyment?
The episode notes that many films misrepresent how courts work, with examples like Perry Mason, but reflects on the idea that the profession values fairness and common sense even if fiction sometimes gets it wrong.
429 - Kadina Lawyers And The Real World Of Rural Law
Q: What was Doug like to work for?
Doug was an exceptional mentor—patient, skilled, and focused on teaching the next generation of lawyers with integrity and practical wisdom.
429 - Kadina Lawyers And The Real World Of Rural Law
Q: Doug, I want to start with you. I want to go right back to Kadina in the 1970s when Germein Reed started. What was Kadina like then? Not the legal work, just the town.
Kadina was a farming hub with strong town rivalries and a smaller footprint than today, where pubs and community centers were central to social life.
417 - Bomb Plot At Adelaide Oval With Michael Ball And Zoe Baird
Q: What is it about veterans helping others in disaster relief that adds value to both groups?
The sense of purpose and camaraderie felt by veterans helps them cope with their own struggles and provides a vital service to the community.
