Apologies for the gap since the last episode. The “Studio” has now moved from Pyrmont to Port Macquarie. Also, and alas, those wonderfully-titled “Side-Effects of Chemo” have continued. Anyway, this episode is Part 3 of The Col Joye Story, covering the period from late-1961 to December 1963. The biggest hit in this period was “Today's Teardrops” and perhaps, the low-point was the nursery rhyme turned pop song, “Ring Around My Rosie”. I've cherry-picked some songs from Col's LPs and EPs, including a song titled “What About Me” (Don Gibson - not the Moving Pictures song). Take a listen to the opening chords of the song which, to my ear, sound very much like those used in the introduction to a major hit in 1979. Towards the end of the episode there are a couple of real ‘rockers'; “Be Bop A Lula” and “I Need Your Love Tonight”. Enjoy Part 3 of the Col Joye Story!

The Live for Lily Foundation was created in honour of nine-year-old Lily who sadly passed away from a rare form of liver cancer. Her father Aaron and his team have worked tirelessly to raise awareness and much-needed funds for childhood cancer research. One of their biggest efforts is the Ride for Lily, a grueling 1,000 kilometre bike ride from Port Macquarie to Noosa, kicking off this April. Live for Lily Foundation co-founder Aaron Hester told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "The Foundation was never front and foremost." "I never even would imagine in a million years that I would have been heading up a foundation in her honour," he said.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It is official. Papua New Guinea will be the home of the code's 18th NRL franchise! The Tip Sheet analyses the historic decision in a landmark episode that celebrates the franchise building efforts of a close friend of TCT in Joey Grima. Sixties, Forty20 and Clint lock in for the penultimate regular episode of the year with plenty happening elsewhere across the code and for the Eels. The Eels are finally at full strength in the preseason as Zac Lomax and Isaiah Iongi return from rep duties. Sixties delivers the latest from Kellyville as the heat hit Sydney. The NRL depth has been boosted by the acquisition of Kitione Katoga from the Bulldogs. The young Fijian backrower will join the Eels immediately on a 2-year deal. The NRLW also made some big moves headlined by the re-signing of Elsie Albert and the pickup of Blackfern outside back Martha Mataele. The NRL news is obviously dominated by the confirmation that the code will expand to PNG in 2028. The boys look at the logistics, how it lines up for coaching prospects (conveniently for the 90* year old Wayne Bennett) and what it means for the game itself. From there, the game's growing asset portfolio is up next with major property acquisitions made in Port Macquarie and Brisbane. Speaking of boosting stocks and port folios, the Roosters nabbed Reece Robson on a 4-year deal. What does it mean for Brandon Smith and which clubs could be suitors for the hybrid hooker/lock? The show closes out with a buffet of bits and pieces from Isaah Yeo winning the Golden Boot to the NRL ads for Vegas 2025 and even some baseball and track and field news!

The Regional New South Wales market overall is solid, without excelling at the levels seen in other regional areas like Queensland and Western Australia, but with individual out-performers. There is hesitancy in the Regional NSW market overall. It has a high number of locations where buyer activity is lukewarm and price performance below the levels seen elsewhere in the nation. It's noteworthy, however, that Regional NSW has seen better performance in its unit markets than its house markets, which is part of a national trend. Overall sales levels have improved, continuing a pattern of recovery over the past year, but remain well below the peak levels of 2021. Regional NSW saw a major decline in its market in 2022 and early 2023, with signs of gradual revival seen since mid-2023. Amid this overall patchy performance, there are some standout growth markets, based on individual Local Government Areas including those in the Wollongong, Newcastle and Albury regions. The Wollongong region continues to be a state-leading star. The City of Wollongong LGA has an above-average number of rising locations and the nearby Shoalhaven LGA continues to thrive: quarterly sales over the past 18 months have been rising steadily, showing one of the best patterns of growth in the nation. The Shellharbour area is also part of this region's growth. Newcastle remains an outstanding market and neighbouring LGAs including Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens and the Hunter Valley municipalities all have busy markets. The Mid Coast LGA has delivered steady increases in market activity over the past year, quarter by quarter. Both Forster and Tuncurry have rising markets and Taree is highly consistent. While those markets are heading into over-drive, some of the high-profile regions of NSW have not yet got out of second gear.  The Central Coast still has a degree of uncertainty; Byron Bay is showing signs of recovery, after a high peak in 2021 and a deep post-boom trough in 2022 and 2023, but remains well peak the 2021 boom levels; and both Coffs Harbour and Port Macquarie have had patchy results over the past year, with indications of recovery in the latest quarter. The Tweed LGA is showing signs of joining the boom experienced north of the border in the Gold Coast region, without yet being fully on board. Elsewhere in Regional NSW, Dubbo, Wellington, Orange, Gunnedah, Inverell and Tenterfield are classified as rising markets; Goulburn and Mudgee are rated as recovery markets; and Armidale, Glen Innes and Parkes stand out for consistent sales activity.

David Keir is perhaps one of the greatest thinkers when it comes to helping new graduates start their dental career. David is the host of the Dental Headstart podcast created to help dental students become great dentists. David spent over 10 years dental assisting before graduating from The University of Sydney in 2016. The idea of Dental Head Start was born from the hopes of  sharing the lessons he's been lucky to learn along the way and helping others gain a head start also. Having spent many summer breaks in the Mid North coast, and even marrying his beautiful wife there, David is proud to now call Port Macquarie home.  When he's not busy with one of his endless side projects … which is a rare, you'll find David adventuring the great outdoors on his mountain bike or running in an ultra marathon.  [2:14] - Starting a podcast to self-learn and help new dental graduates understand the business of dentistry. [6:29] - Business was always the path … but not the start. [13:13] - How David and his wife turned a tremendous tragedy into a 1 year traveling adventure around Australia. [18:01] - What has an ultra marathon got to do with running a dentistry practice? [27:24] - Take a break … breathe … and give yourself the time to decide ‘what next'.

Great to catch up with northern NSW riding legend Peter Graham who's still going strong at 55 years of age and closing in on 2500 career wins. Peter was born and reared at Wauchope and virtually taught himself to ride at the local racecourse. When it was time to launch his professional riding career he chose Port Macquarie as his home base and he's still there today. Peter begins by talking about younger daughter Rori who's getting over a nasty trackwork injury. He pays tribute to daughter Cejay, currently one of Brisbane's in form jockeys. Peter talks of son Jesse who rode a few winners before opting for a change of career direction. He acknowledges the help given by wife Karen at his Port Macquarie training property. He talks of his role as the holder of a dual training and riding licence. Peter looks back on the Wauchope trackwork accident that left him with a condition known as “frozen shoulder”. The veteran says he thought about retirement but decided on a return to race riding when his shoulder injury improved. Peter looks back on early days at Wauchope and his initial apprenticeship to Bob Graham. He says he had no real tutelage in those early days. Eventually he moved to Muswellbrook. The respected horseman reflects on his first win as a 36kg apprentice. He talks of an affinity with the Kempsey track where he's won 6 local Cups. Peter looks back on an imposing list of feature wins on northern tracks with special mention of his Grafton Cup win on Rednav as recently as 2016. He pays tribute to Rednav's trainer Sally Taylor. He looks back on several rewarding seasons on NSW tracks. Peter says country commitments have kept him away from city tracks, but recalls one day at Randwick that turned out to be an unpleasant experience. He talks of the ten acre farm at Port Macquarie from which he prepares his small string of horses. The versatile horseman talks about recent track improvements at Port Macquarie racecourse. Peter talks of the immense thrill he received when daughter Cejay rode her first winner for the stable. He discusses the prospects of members of his small team going forward. Peter pays tribute to some of the talented country jockeys with whom he's ridden over the years. It's a long overdue tribute to one of the kings of northern NSW racing.

It's a pleasure to welcome Terry Evans to the podcast- the trainer who happens to be the sole occupant of on course stabling at the Tuncurry-Forster racecourse on the NSW north coast. Terry was there when the new track was granted a licence by Racing NSW in 2009. This podcast was recorded two days before Sir Ravanelli scored an impressive win on a rain sodden Newcastle track. Terry rates the grey gelding as the best horse he's trained to date. He begins by reflecting on the enthusiasm and commitment of the new Tuncurry-Forster Jockey Club when he arrived fifteen years ago.  Terry pays tribute to the Jockey Club's dedicated President Gary McQuillan. He remembers a conversation with a friend at a Port Macquarie meeting in 2009. At that time he was unaware a new track was under construction at nearby Tuncurry-Forster.  Terry talks about the purchase of the racecourse a few years ago by Racing NSW. The trainer talks about the facilities available to him. He explains the benefits of his 20 acre property at nearby Rainbow Flat. Terry and wife Julie had a frightening experience a few years ago when the property was threatened by the raging NSW north coast bushfires. He says the fires also got dangerously close to the racecourse stables. He was in total disbelief just twelve months later when floodwaters looked likely to inundate the stables. Terry expresses his appreciation of the talents and work ethic of Gonzalo Aguila, an Argentinian horseman who walked into the stables looking for a job. He looks back on early days in Balmain when he realised a dream by landing a sand boy's role with the famous Balmain Tiger's RL team. Terry pays tribute to two former Balmain legends who were his inspiration at the time. He reflects on his playing days in the Balmain Juniors and his transition to the Under 23 ranks. Memories of his very first game at the higher level remain vivid for all the wrong reasons. Terry reminisces about his entry into the thoroughbred world at a Southern Highlands stud farm. This is where he gained valuable experience working with mares and foals. A regular visitor to the property was a young lady who worked for the Horse Power Feed Company. Julie was destined to become his wife. He looks back on a move to Julie's horse property at Dural and his appointment as a yearling handler at nearby Shillington Park. In the early 1990's Terry and Julie established their own spelling and pre-training business near Wyong. They were delighted when the business grew rapidly but in the end it became too much for them. He says this was the catalyst for his transition to horse training. He talks of a low key start at Gosford, and the help he received from the resident CEO. Terry looks back on the magical occasion of his first training win. He reminisces about a win with Verrekeen at Gosford in 2009. It was the very last race called by the retiring Ian Craig. It was a costly exercise for winning jockey Hugh Bowman. Terry acknowledges other horses who've helped him along the way. This podcast was taped a couple of days before Sir Ravanelli's impressive win at Newcastle on May 11th. Terry recalls his acquisition of the gelding on the recommendation of a NZ bloodstock agent. He talks of the care and attention necessary to keep on top of the horse's foot problems.  The trainer looks back on Sir Ravanelli's achievements so far. He talks of the grey's ownership group, one of whom is ace race photographer Steve Hart. He talks of the current progress of his old football team and the emotional attachment that persists to this day. Terry talks of Julie's return to the nursing profession and son Troy's love of a punt. It's a laid back chat with yet another member of that exclusive club known as the “Balmain Boys”.

*A quick heads up, this episode contains some coarse language, and also discusses mental health and suicidal thoughts. If you or anyone you know needs help, contact Lifeline immediately on 13 11 14. Sophie Love  runs a small farm near Port Macquarie in New South Wales. She bought it herself aged 40, while single, and childless. She never thought she wanted kids, until, well, she did... after meeting a man she went on to marry. Soph has always dreamed of running her own property, and against all the odds, she made it happen. But her fairytale life with her husband and son on the land came crashing down with the breakdown of her marriage just two years ago when she was 56. The pressure of drought, floods and fires, along with other circumstances had worn them both down- and when her husband left, never to return, Sophie hit rock bottom. At one point, she was on suicide watch. I learned a lot of other things about Sophie in our chat- including the fact she used to be a vegan for 20 years! Nutrien Ag Solutions.

Five winners in a week when you have only twelve horses in work is a notable effort for any trainer. Port Macquarie's John Sprague did exactly that in the middle of March with doubles at Coffs Harbour and Grafton and a single at Kempsey. John kicked off as an apprentice jockey in the late 1970's when Canterbury was still a busy training centre. His riding career didn't get going until he relocated to Port Macquarie. Two hundred wins later he switched to the training business, and has  maintained a healthy strike rate for the last twenty eight years. John begins by talking about his recent winning trot. He clears up any confusion about the pronunciation of his surname. Renovations to Port Macquarie training facilities have made things difficult for local trainers of late. John discusses the problems. He takes us back to the days of his apprenticeship to Jim O'Connor at Canterbury and a switch to an Orange stable. Rides were almost non existent. He pays tribute to the Canterbury trainers of the era with special acknowledgement of a popular  jockey who gave great assistance to those trainers over many years. John talks of a move to Port Macquarie where his father had set up a training stable. John Snr wasn't in the position to apprentice his son, but Glen Hodge came to the rescue. John looks back on the thrill of his first winning ride- it was Stairway trained by his boss on his hometrack. He remembers a winning run that brought him doubles and trebles. Sprague looks back on a Taree Gold Cup win on the Glen Hodge trained Just Prince in 1980. Still on his riding career Sprague fondly remembers a country cups treble on Bold Bazza. He talks of Bold Bazza's trainer Harry Leroy and wife Betty who'd been one of the pioneer lady jockeys in NSW. John talks of his riding days on northern rivers tracks with special mention of the unusual Bowraville circuit. He rarely rode in the city and finished his career without a metro winner. He talks of the “one that got away”. John looks back on the news that his father was about to relinquish his trainer's licence and sell the Port Macquarie stables. Sprague Snr came up with an offer he couldn't refuse. The experienced horseman acknowledges some of the horses who've helped shape his training career. He pays tribute to wife Karen who held a trainer's licence at one stage. John looks back on the lowest point of his life in racing- a shock disqualification when one of his horses returned a positive swab after a race at Tuncurry-Forster. He looks back on a nightmare experience and the cost of his spirited defence. He pays tribute to a handful of jockeys with whom he's enjoyed continued success in the northern region. John and Karen are the proud parents of three sons. None of the boys have pursued a career in racing, but all have successful careers. The 62 year old trainer gives a pointer to his future plans.

I deserve a reprimand for taking so long to catch up with Jenny Duggan. There are several well known facts about this 44 year old Swedish born jockey. She can hold her own on the back of a thoroughbred at any level. She's a hard worker, she's as tough as teak and thoroughly reliable. She's a great wife to Ben, and a wonderful mum and stepmother. What more can I say. Let's hear from Jen who begins by talking about the support she receives from country and provincial trainers. She gives great credit to manager Shaun Flaherty. The jockey talks about a “near miss” on her old favourite Torrens in the recent black type Australia Day Cup. She rates Torrens as her all time favourite. Jenny talks about a happy childhood on the family dairy farm at Figeholm in Sweden. The dairy cows shared the paddocks with a handful of horses. The die was cast. She recalls her parents having to drag her off the pony at dinner time. Jen pays tribute to her late paternal grandfather, and to her parents Tony and Lisa. The former Jenny Lindgren says the majority of “horsey” Swedish kids often finish up in trotting stables. She much preferred to ride. She looks back on a memorable six month stint with NZ trainer Murray Baker. Jenny talks about an invitation to visit Australia with a Swedish friend. The friend went home. Jenny is here for life. She talks of her introduction to Warwick Farm trackwork for several stables. The jockey reflects on a new job at Port Macquarie and a burgeoning romance with a well known amateur jockey. It wasn't long before she joined her partner on the picnic circuit. She talks of an exciting premiership win, and a meeting with Racing NSW regarding unsatisfactory amateur riding fees. That meeting would change the course of her life. Jenny made her pro debut at Port Macquarie in 2012, and what a beginning! She won at her very first ride. She looks back on a winning run that earned her the ride on a horse she still regards as the best she's ridden.  Jen soon discovered that race riding is fraught with danger. Her winning streak was halted by a Newcastle fall which left her with serious injuries to a knee. She was out for the best part of a year. She hasn't forgotten her return to trackwork. Mother nature put her on the sidelines again. It was another year off to get her new son up and running. Back to trackwork and you won't believe what happened! On finally returning to the saddle, Jenny says she intended to ride trackwork only. As her weight stabilised and her rhythm came back, the desire to ride in races surfaced again. It was brother-in-law Adam Duggan who agreed to apprentice her. In selecting a few memorable wins to talk about, we reminded the jockey of a Randwick Highway win on Gumshoe for former boss Marc Quinn. Jenny was going so well by Scone Cup day 2020, she had six rides at the meeting despite the presence of top Sydney riders. She just missed a place on a Chris Waller runner in the Cup, before crashing in a later race. She has no memory of the fall. The resilient jockey lists her injuries and talks about an agonisingly slow and tedious rehabilitation. There was never a hint of retirement. She recalls the exciting return to the track, and a Port Macquarie double at her fourth meeting on the comeback trail. Jenny looks back on a very successful return hindered by a recurrence of an injury from the Scone fall. She talks of a decision to take a complete break from racing and a return to her native Sweden. She took her sons Max and Sebastian along to spend time with their grandparents. The long holiday fixed the problem. Jen resumed in December 2022 and won a race at Tamworth second day back. Then came a Randwick win which meant the world to her. The jockey doesn't mind admitting she's one of Australia's most senior female riders.  She talks of her ability to ride near the limit weight, and her current trackwork roster. Great to catch up with the Swedish girl who had to be dragged off the pony when her dinner was on the table.
