Southern Cross University Vice-Chancellor Professor Tyrone Carlin joins Talking Lismore to reflect on leading the university through COVID and the 2022 floods, the launch of the new Bachelor of Veterinary Medicine in Lismore, the $3.6 million athletics track development, Sirius College accommodation returning, and his vision for the university’s next decade.

Lismore Mayor Steve Krieg sat down to discuss what is going to happen in 2026 in the Lismore LGA. New events, like Groovin' The Moo and a national skateboard event, as an Olympic pathway toward selection for the Australian team. Plus the imminent move back to the Municipal building in the CBD.

Jenny Dowell has served Lismore through public service and many volunteer roles. Showing her love for the city she calls her "soul place".

Jenny's much-publicised cancer return has seen her stop all treatment to enjoy a better quality of life. Of course, that means the end of Jenny's life will be sooner rather than later. 

This Talking Lismore podcast discusses all aspects of Jenny's decision and the journey she will take over the next few months.

A warning that some listeners may find the content upsetting, as we touch on death and voluntary assisted dying (VAD) in detail.
