Sarah and Simon have packed their bags and they are ready for PALM. There’s lots to love in this episode, from song renditions, declarations of love and Reginald playing their favourite guessing game. There are reports from Meningie, Yarborough Leisure Centre and Lousberg parkruns. We celebrate some Adventurers achievements and get ourselves ready to par-tay in the Clare Valley very soon.

Lyndell & TOC get together to plan some goals, the Kiwis set a country record and we hear reports from Pollock, University of Western Australia and De Soza parkruns. We eat all the food from Dazza’s, even the Brussels sprouts with icecream, and TOC gets excited about all the emails. Fronds abound and there are launches all round.

Guess who’s back? It’s your favourite antipodean parkrun podcast with Mel & TOC in the comfy chairs! We are refreshed from our holiday break and ready to talk adventures as we launch into our 11th year. There’s reports to catch up on from Tapijn parkrun in The Netherlands and Queen Elizabeth Casino in Australia, plus some fun challenges to consider from Reginald.

Crack, pop, bang! It’s our Christmas Spectacular. Turn up the Christmas carols, throw on a party hat and get ready for a feast. The Northern Hemisphere is supplying the launches, and Reginald is busy providing the entertainment. There are reports from Brierley Forrest and Golden Beach parkruns. Wait… did we hear mention of something bright and colourful? We celebrate a grand scale achievement, and let’s not forget the bon-bon jokes of course!

This week, TOC and Lyndell the Legendary Hitchhike around the Galaxy.

Tracey in a Tutu gets a parkrun day of her own to celebrate 500. Lithuania gets 2 new shiny events and a Special Day.

We’ve got roving reports from Lithgow in NSW, Dalby in QLD and Moussette parkrun in Canada.

We discuss the eight and a half launches and, in late news, celebrate the portal opening for Adventurers shirt sales for a very limited time.

Coooeee, Adventurers – Mel and TOC have been doubling up at parkrun – so we have a shorter pod! You’re welcome. That hasn’t stopped them discussing all the things – like big number twos, missing glasses and stinky tops. Luckily the roving reporters bring some stability at Haigh Woodland, Wöhrder See and Renmark parkruns. And can you guess the Who Am I? Four points if you can.

Simon tells us about his many adventures over the last month, while Sarah shares news of her visit to the newest parkrun in the west. They talk Unity Day, launches, and a future prediction. Will it be right? There are roving reports at Neale Park & Henley Lake, Abbey Park and Coolum Eco parkrun. Reginald talks all things Swedish and let’s not forget, it’s time to get booking your pALM adventure for 2026!

We wish to advise, that due to recent office restructures, this weeks pod may be a little longer than usual. Jokes. It’s really because Mel and TOC are back and like a yarn. Blah, blah, blah, change of staff. Blah, blah, blah, palm location announcement. Also those roving reporters love a chat *eyeroll* *hug* *laughing face*, namely at East Brighton, Pallara and Merredin Peak parkruns. Tune in for all the things.
