A weekly podcast recorded in Adelaide that puts South Australian passion on centre stage with a featured guest who joins us each week as a co-presenter to share how they're pursuing their passions. We venture across topics as diverse as history, wine, food, art, music, relationships, critical thinking, health, news, interviews, chat and quizzes. Every single interview, every single show, unlocks insights into what drives people to be doing what they're doing and what keeps them striving. The Adelaide Show is produced by Steve Davis and Nigel Dobson-Keeffe. Please subscribe to our In Crowd list; you get an email each Friday (when we have published a new episode) with an overview of that week's show. Plus, consider joining our Inner Circle; a small group of passionate South Aussies who allow us to pick their brains and gain interviewee suggestions. This podcast began life as Another Boring Thursday Night In Adelaide from episodes 1-79.

046 - Set The Children Free
Adelaide may be cold at the moment but many people's hearts are warm, prompting them to stand up for the 983 children that Australia has in detention in centres set up to hold asylum seekers.
One such group of Adelaideans was a gathering of church leaders who held a sit in in the office of Member for Mayo, Jamie Briggs, demanding to know when the government will release those children and their families into community care.
We chat with Rev Sandy Boyce, one of the vigil members about the protest and the process of being arrested for standing up for something you believe in.
We also talk with Stephanie Johnston who is heading up the charge to get World Heritage Listing for the Mount Lofty Ranges, including our beloved McLaren Vale wine region.
Brett talks about taking phone calls on public transport, Steve has a community safety message about your porn star names, and Colin adds three esteemed locals to the South Australian Register - people who have helped make South Australia flush with success!
