One of the most enduring two-code careers in Australasian sport belongs to Brad Thorn. An All Black, Crusader, Highlander, Bronco, Queenslander, and Kangaroo, Thorn has nearly done it all over the span of his 40 year career. ‘Champions Do Extra', is Thorn's memoir, and it delves into his legendary rugby career and the lessons he's learnt along the way. He began working on it after he finished up with the Reds. “I thought, if I'm going to write something, surely I've learned something over the last 30 years, y'know, now is the time.” He was a part of three champion Brisbane Broncos sides and a World Cup winning All Blacks side – an achievement he maintains is the greatest of his career. “The Grand Final of Grand Finals,” he told Piney. “Everything was on the line.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Brisbane teacher and author, Sita Walker on the strong matriarchs who have helped her weather the storm of family tragedy, divorce and the beauty of a new love.Sita grew up in Toowoomba in Queensland, descended from five powerful women — three aunts, her grandmother and her mum.They were Baha'i women who came to Australia via Iran and India.Tragedy struck the family when Sita was a child, and her matriarchs descended on the home — to cook, clean, and comfort.Sita always saw herself as good Baha'i girl, and she went on to marry a good Baha'i boy and start a family. When things started to unravel, Sita found herself drifting away from her nightly prayers and accounting for her deeds, and it took a divorce and a new love for her to admit to herself, and her parents, how things had changed.This episode was produced by Alice Moldovan. The Executive Producer was Nicola Harrison.It explores faith, grief, religion, Baha'i, grandmothering, losing a sibling, evil eye, Queenslander, youth camp, marrying young, nightly prayers, falling in love, leaving religion, girl dinner, To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

After 30 years criss-crossing regional Queensland, it's the end of the road for Skytrans – not for the airline itself, which will keep flying, but for the name. New owner Avia Solutions Group is rebranding the carrier as SmartLynx Australia, echoing some of its other brands overseas. Along with the name change will come a new paint job for the airline's existing aircraft, with the Skytrans livery to be covered in neutral white, allowing the planes to be more easily used for wet leasing and charter flights when needed – but for Queenslanders who know and love the Skytrans brand, will the change prove a turn-off? Jake and guest host David Hollingworth examine the pros and cons of the change, and whether all-white planes are an appealing prospect for passengers. Plus, scrappy upstart Koala Airlines is back in the news – but does its ambition of launching domestic services by the end of next year hold much water?

Ashley Madison weighs in after it's revealed that Queenslanders are the most unfaithful.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Early in life Lindsay Hatch was totally focused on becoming a jockey and was able to make that happen, albeit for a very short time. Apprenticed to his father Geoff, young Lindsay lasted only 3 years before his weight got out of control but it's fair to say he left his mark with more than 80 wins, including 30 in Brisbane and a Gold Coast apprentices premiership. He later learned the training craft from some of Australia's most successful horsemen before settling into a full time solo career at Toowoomba- a career that has so far brought him two Toowoomba premierships. The Lindsay Hatch story makes for a very interesting podcast, and we're delighted to present it this week. Lindsay begins by singing the praises of his talented mare Wanda Rox who scored a dashing win at EF on Sat July 19th. It was her fourth win at headquarters. Lindsay talks about his dual operation in Queensland with stables at Toowoomba and Townsville. He outlines the reason for the establishment of a northern base. He acknowledges the professionalism of his Townsville stable manager Martin Haley. Lindsay says the toughest part of the job is the endless travelling between coastal racing venues.  He talks of his 40 horse team at Toowoomba. Lindsay remembers childhood days at Blackall and a subsequent move to Ayr in sugar cane country. He looks back on his low key job with top trainer Bruce McLachlan in Brisbane. All he wanted to do was become a jockey. At this point his father Geoff made the important decision to apprentice his son. Lindsay looks back on a fleeting riding career before rapidly increasing weight brought an end to his dream. His three years in the saddle were not without rewards. He looks back on the freakish stroke of luck that would change his life. With the help of a friend, Lindsay became a trackwork rider for Tommy Smith who was a regular in Brisbane at carnival time. That association was destined to last for several years. He remembers one outstanding horse he got to ride in trackwork. Lindsay talks of a move back to Brisbane and a job with talented trainer Kelso Wood. He looks back on a trip to the famous Cairns Amateurs with a few mates. He intended to stay for a week, but was still there three years later. During that time his training career had a low key start. On returning to Brisbane Lindsay would meet the lady destined to become his wife and the mother of his two children. Tracey wasn't from a racing background but quickly learned the ropes. Lindsay brings us up to date with the current activities of son Thomas and daughter Jade. The trainer looks back on a fateful decision he made in 2010. Unhappy with the Toowoomba Turf Club's decision to install a synthetic track, he applied for a job with John Sadler in Melbourne. He landed that job and loved every  minute of the experience.  Lindsay takes us back to the second phase of his Victorian experience- a stint with Team Snowden during which time he worked with some classy horses. He recalls his return to Queensland and a whole new career experience courtesy of old friend Tony Gollan. The talented trainer acknowledges some of the horses who've helped shape his career. Lindsay recalls the thrill of his recent win in the Battle Of The Bush Final with Peshwa ridden by his former apprentice Angela Jones. He pays tribute to the young lady who's on the brink of history as the current season draws to a close. He speaks highly of Angela's partner Kyle Wilson-Taylor who spent part of his apprenticeship with the Hatch stable. Lindsay looks back on the two lowest points of his fifty year involvement in racing. He talks of the shock bowel cancer diagnosis he was handed by doctors in 2017, and the twelve months disqualification he incurred when one of his horses returned a swab positive to cobalt in 2024. The disqualification was eventually replaced by a hefty fine.  It's a laid back chat with a true blue Queenslander who wouldn't swap his lot in life for “quids”.

Various road rules across Australia have changed from Tuesday, 1 July 2025. NSW has introduced harsher penalties for drivers using their mobile phones. In Victoria, the road rule requiring drivers to slow down to 40 km/h for emergency responders will now also include tow trucks, roadside assistance, and incident response workers. Meanwhile, Queenslanders will experience a 3.4 per cent increase in vehicle registration fees, as well as higher traffic fines. And nationally, AI-powered surveillance cameras capable of detecting mobile phone use will be rolled out, as governments crack down on distracted driving.

We kick things off with some wild hotel horror stories — from drunken check-ins to crumbed sausage revenge (you had to be there). In the Glossy’s, Victoria Beckham let Harper give David a full glam makeover, Selena’s marble table caused a sniffy stir, Nicki Minaj had no time for closet speculation, and RAYE celebrated a billion streams with a mouthful of Weet-Bix straight from her Spotify plaque. We dive deep into the controversial Enhanced Games — think Olympics on steroids (literally) — and debate whether it’s genius or just bonkers. And with State of Origin Game 1 kicking off tonight at Suncorp, we revisit old footage of Margot Robbie repping the Maroons like a true Queenslander.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
