Sarah is back in the comfy chair, talking with Simon about the last seven weeks, cyclones and a few records. We have a roving report from Penrith parkrun (not the one in Western Sydney). There were two exciting launches, with at least one going straight to the top of the bucket list. Tune in to see which two unlikely Adventurers also cross paths.

Mel and Toc are here to mention Ingrid – over and over. And we falicitate all the reports on French omissions, CEO disappearances and cyclone impacts. Cryptic? That’s the point! Plus we have roving reports from Toowoomba, University of WA and du Bois de Boulogne, Paris. Listen in.

Guess who’s back on Quandamooka country? It’s Simon! And he’s joining Mel to steer the ship and track the plane. Speaking of planes, Budgie hit his mark at Black Rocks parkrun and has another mission plus Alison investigates South End Reserve in NZ. That’ll do for another week.

Toc returns to the host chair to an inbox overflowing. Mel loves the emails that mention her Magpies and discussions continue about Number Checkers. We hear from Calum at Holyrood, PK joins from the new Drage Reserve and Lyndell the Legendary celebrates at Golden Beach parkrun. Did you Tu-Tu up last week? Dazzas was full of colour, just the way we like it!

This week Mel has a familiar yet new voice on the pod. You'll need to be patient to see who's who, so listen up now. We talk about juniors, transport, and Valentine's Day adventures - and we want to hear your transport trips next week.

All the fun was on the Bellarine this week with Mel partying at Portarlington, and TOC travelling down via Emerald Lake parkrun. Coincidentally, we have a roving report from Emerald Lake as well as one from St. Albans in the UK and Neckarufer in Germany. Plus - all the usual banter. There’s even an announcement at the end. The clue is in the title. I’m not saying it’s a good clue…

We found him!! No, not Simon – although he’s here with Mel this week after gatecrashing Sirromet’s party. Fresh from a Vergara visit, Mel has challenges on the brain trying to keep Reginald engaged, so he doesn’t run away like the previous unpaid staff. The roving reporters are busy, reporting in from Gordon Carmichael Reserve, Beeeevahhh (Belvoir) Castle and Tamborine Mountain. Oh yeah … and we found Budgie.

We’re feeling patriotic this week! Mel revisits Sale parkrun and TOC adventures north to grab a new event at Huskisson. We have NZ stats, Royal news from the UK, plus roving reports from Beverley Westwood, Hanmer Forest and Birtinya Island parkruns. Reginald is feeling passionate, Charles emails with a Tassie update and the launches roll in. Oi Oi Oi!

Simon’s back from leave to join Mel on Level Two. While he recaps his holiday break, the roving reporters join in from Ashburton Domain, North Harbour and Queens Domain parkruns. Plus, there was a swather of launches across the world. Listen in and remember to look out for the listener challenge.

It’s a new year of podding and we are out of the gates with Melissa & TOC, catching up on their Christmas & New Year parkrun holidays. Our roving reporters have been busy too! This week we feature Ali Sheppard from Hellbrunn and Bushy parkruns, as well as Lyndell the Legendary at Gainsborough Greens.
