Just discovered this podcast & thoroughly enjoyed the episode on Andamooka. You mention previous episodes on Arkaroola, but I can’t find them… can you point me in the right direction please
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!
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.
