The Northern Territory has become a haven for online gambling companies, 36 in total, all of which base themselves in the territory for its low fees and taxes.

In this proper yarn of the Proper True Yarn podcast, Zach Oakley takes us on a mad journey through a wild night in Adelaide. From a cheeky win on the pokies with found coins to a kebab shop drama where cheese goes missing, only for a hero to step in and save the day—this yarn's got it all. Zach reminisces about the chaos of a bucks party, a bit of late-night grub at a dodgy kebab shop, and the importance of always having a backup stash of cheese. Plus, he pitches an idea for a new food van that'll have your mouth watering. If you love a proper yarn, this one's got the lot.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.

A report into the viability of Christchurch hosting the Commonwealth Games took 14 hours to write, after it was requested in January.  The report, commissioned by Mayor Phil Mauger, from Council and Christchurch NZ recommended Christchurch avoid holding a standalone event.  Newstalk ZB has revealed it cost just over $1000 for staff time.  Mauger told John MacDonald the report was a big job for Christchurch NZ, which didn't need rushing.  He says the city wasn't trying to host the Games sometime in the next year, so they just fitted it when they could.  Mauger joined John MacDonald in studio for their regular catchup, giving his thoughts on the Games' report, high rises in the CBD, and his request the Government does more to address the pokie machine harm in Christchurch.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on The Hoot, the owls take a hard look at the ACT Government's 20-year plan to cull the number of poker machines in local clubs. Under the initiative, the number of poker machines in the ACT will be slashed to just 1000 by 2045 if Labor is re-elected in October (there are currently 3790). The primary goal is to reduce gambling harm. ACT Labor says it will legislate to force clubs to give up 500 machines every four years until the target is met. But there's more. The sweetener will be a framework for clubs to develop sustainable alternative revenue streams, including practical ways for clubs to unlock their land so it can be used for housing, build-to-rent projects and aged care. But it's not all smooth sailing - in fact, the clubs are positively ropable. And where would we be without light rail? On a bus probably, but aside from that ... We're headed to the polls in October and it seems like light rail will again be a primary focus. Oh, goody. The Libs are in a spot of bother with their plan to put us on the buses, but the government has some problems, too. Some of the turns to Woden are a bit sharp for the not-too-nimble trams, so we'll be getting a tunnel. Of sorts. And they don't come cheap ... not that we know what the cost will be, but apart from that ...  Finally, we discuss this park from Andrew Barr. Yes, it's a storm in a teacup, but isn't everything these days? If you haven't subscribed to the Hoot, why haven't you? Like all Region products, to you, the listener, the reader, it's free.

This lecture discusses electronic gambling machines known as “pokies” in Australia, “slot machines” in the United States of America and “fruit machines” in the United Kingdom. It explores their use of symbols, how players may be entranced by the promise of spiritual connection and let down by the lack of revelation. Regulations surrounding electronic gambling machines vary greatly around the world and continue to be the subject of fierce political and social debate in Australia.

Coverage that provides news and analysis of national issues significant to regional Australians.

Pokies, poker machines, slot machines. Whatever you call them, they've been popular in Australia since the 1950s when pubs and clubs were looking for ways to entertain their customers. Then in the 1990s, they became electronic - making them more sophisticated and addictive.The government saw pokies as a potential source of revenue and began issuing licenses for their installation in clubs and pubs across the country. Today, the industry generates over $5 billion annually, making it one of the largest contributors to the Australian economy. We might only be home to less than half a percent of the world's population, but we're home to over 20% of the pokies. And we have one of the highest gambling loss rates in the world - well over $1000 per adult each year.There is growing concern over their regulation, with calls for tighter rules to protect vulnerable individuals. Today Darcy and Sascha ask: 'Why are there so many pokies in Australia?If you are having trouble with gambling, there are services there to assist you.
