About The Regional 250

Did you know that almost 10 million Australians live outside of the major metropolitan cities and suburbs? And every single one of those 10 million people have a story to tell - a story about themselves, their family, their town or their region. In The Regional 250, we will chat to 250 of those people, learn about their town or region and let them tell their story in a relaxed "podversational" style. And to ensure that we cover as much of Australia as we can, we are going to limit ourselves to one podversation per Local Government Area (LGA) across Australia. That means that we'll cover 250 rural cities, towns, boroughs and shires from right across the country. There'll be happy stories and sad stories. There'll be funny episodes and serious ones, too. But they'll be genuine. They'll be interesting. They'll be real. And we can't wait to bring The Regional 250 to you.

Podcasthon 2026 Special - Linda Widdup and Kevin Butler

We are delighted to have been invited to participate in Podcasthon 2026 - a global initiative amongst podcasters across the world, where we dedicate an episode of our podcasts to promote a deserving not-for-profit organisation / charity. Since our last Podcasthon episode in 2025, we have discovered two amazing organisations that are doing amazing things in regional Australia, especially when times are their toughest. In this episode, Neil chats to Linda Widdup, the founder of Aussie Hay Runners (and the 2026 Australian Of The Year Victorian Local Hero) and Kevin Butler the founder of BlazeAid.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
