Steve's unwrapping some goodies tonight when episode 402 goes live.
There's no other podcast like ... The Adelaide Show.
Our guess will be Paul from @rememberingjohnnies with a pageant song by Australia's top children's performer.
What does the Royal Adelaide Show have in common with Lord Mayor Jane Lomax-Smith? They've both been featured on The Adelaide Show Podcast. But where do they differ? The Royal Show glitters and sparkles with sideshows and fireworks, while Dr Jane Lomax-Smith AM prefers to avoid the ceremonial robes unless absolutely necessary. Here's a snippet from episode 400. @royaladelaideshow City of Adelaide @cityofadelaide
When people hear that Adelaide is the most beautiful and livable city in the world, it's not because of modern skyscrapers. It's our rich mid-century and Victorian heritage that makes us truly unique. Destroying it would change everything. Let's preserve our city's charm! #HeritageMatters #Adelaide #PreserveOurCity" - Lord Mayor Jane Lomax-Smith. Tune in to our special 400th episode of The Adelaide Show! #Podcast #UrbanHeritage #CityPride City of Adelaide @cityofadelaide
Episode 400 features Adelaide Lord Mayor Jane Lomax-Smith and is a discussion brimful of confessions and reflections. Well, at least one confession; Steve said if roles were swapped he'd wear the official robes daily, as opposed to the Lord Mayor's current stance of only wearing them one day a year during citizenship ceremonies for the City of Adelaide. The full chat is out now, but this is just a glimpse behind the scenes with details on the scheme that offers Buy One Get One Free when buying land in Adelaide (note, all stocks might be exhausted). You'll find the episode in Spotify, all podcast apps, and at our website.

John Schumann discusses writing On Every Anzac Day and seeing Australia better from Indonesia
John Schumann really takes us deeper into his writing world in the latest episode (396), which includes a strange thing that happens when he's in Indonesia.
But we start with his commissioning to write the song, On Every Anzac Day. Got that, soldier?
This whets our appetite for seeing John Schumann & The Vagabond Crew at The Gov on August 3. See you there.
It's great fireplace or campfire weather at the moment, and one of this week's guests, Uncle Ken Jones from Bush Adventures, gave us a glimpse about the extra significance of telling stories around fire at night.
If you're a parent who's had to travel for work, John Schumann's song, For The Children, from his Etched In Blue album (and featuring in his new show with John Schumann & The Vagabond Crew at The Gov on August 3), really tugs at the heart.
But can the lofty words we put in such moments come back to bite us? That's what Steve asked in this reflective moment during episode 396.
As an aside, the song begins with, "lady from the paper asked me, will I write a song for you," and Steve found out it was not Samela Harris (he just had to ask).
