James WillisHOST
We have no local gas industry in New South Wales, Tony.
James WillisHOST
And part of the issue is that Santos are trying to drill at Narrabri and regional New South Wales, For more than 10 years, they've spent a billion dollars trying to get that up and running to put prices down, but they can't get it through all the legal, green tape, red tape, whatever it may be.
James WillisHOST
And unfortunately, Tony, as part of that, the Energy Minister of New South Wales, Penny Sharp, in opposition, fought and opposed this project, which doesn't help their cause either.

Damien BaguleyGUEST
Yeah, all around the northwest.
Damien BaguleyGUEST
I'm from a little town called Narrabri out in the country, northwest New South Wales.
Damien BaguleyGUEST
And, yeah, I met up with a bunch of guys from another town called Moree and we formed a cover band and we moved to Tamworth.
Damien BaguleyGUEST
We were playing kind of rock covers back in the day.
Jeremy BuckinghamSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We need to make sure that they get the message that we need to move beyond coal and gas.
Jeremy BuckinghamSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
As a gas campaigner for the last 30 years, I've been appalled that the state government has got behind the Narrabri gas project.
Jeremy BuckinghamSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
before they were in government.
Jeremy BuckinghamSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It's an absolute shame.
Jeremy BuckinghamSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Before they were in state government they said they were opposed to fracking and opposed to Narrabri.
Jeremy BuckinghamSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Well what we've seen recently with their new statement on gas is them opening up a new vast area of the state to fracking and gas.
Jeremy BuckinghamSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We've seen what's happened in the Northern Territory with Boon Fe Luw Basin.
Jeremy BuckinghamSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Now industry and unions are behind it.
John StanleyHOST
Now, this is terrific because you might remember, was it about a month ago, I mentioned Mount Capita.
John StanleyHOST
It's a national park just near Narrabri.
John StanleyHOST
And the reason I mentioned it was because somewhere I went when I was actually a kid.
John StanleyHOST
And I thought it was fantastic.
John StanleyHOST
But it was a story about Narrabri, northwestern New South Wales, and the pink slug.
John StanleyHOST
Now, this is apparently up in the Capita National Park.
John StanleyHOST
And the pink slug was their version of the big.
Moises HenriquesGUEST
I went to one last week
Stuart MacGillGUEST
at Narrabri.
Stuart MacGillGUEST
Yeah.
Stuart MacGillGUEST
It was
Moises HenriquesGUEST
really good.
Moises HenriquesGUEST
It was really beneficial.
Moises HenriquesGUEST
Shout out to all the locals down there in Narrabri.
Moises HenriquesGUEST
But what I will say is to your point, Stu, we used to play shield games in the country once or twice a year.
Nick MortonGUEST
I hated it.
Nick MortonGUEST
I was working out at Narrabri, traveling.
Nick MortonGUEST
It wasn't FIFO.
Nick MortonGUEST
It was just drive out, do 512s and come home.
speaker_1HOST
And the lady on my left, she was with her hubby.
speaker_1HOST
They were down from Narrabri.
speaker_1HOST
They'd come down on the train, so a long way, and there were some folks on my right, a bunch of ladies.
speaker_1HOST
They were dressed in pink as Sadie the Cleaning Lady, another famous song.
Andrew GrahamHOST
singing the same words, the same song.
Andrew GrahamHOST
And the lady on my left, she was down from Narrabri with her husband on the train.
Andrew GrahamHOST
They'd come a long way.
Andrew GrahamHOST
There was a bunch of ladies on the right.
AndrewAUDIENCE
B-double-rated cattle that take up the Gundawindi.
AndrewAUDIENCE
And when I got, like, around near Narrabri, from Narrabri to Gundawindi, I've never seen so much water in the paddocks there.
AndrewAUDIENCE
Like, their crops and stuff growing like wheat and everything.
AndrewAUDIENCE
They've had a lot of rain through that area, eh?
Ian McNamaraHOST
Yeah, well, it's the old story in Australia, isn't it? And then we just had the call a little while ago from Georgian Wakery where they can't harvest.
Ian McNamaraHOST
They're harvesting barley because there's been no harvest today and it's been a very, you know, and there's lots of, it's going to be one of the big harvests in Australia this year because they haven't had much in the last couple of years but it's going to be a big harvest because the crops are just amazing in some places but they mightn't have the trucks or the storage to get rid of it.
AndrewAUDIENCE
Yeah, well, up between that Narrabri, Moree, Gundawindi, up through there, there's some nice-looking crops growing, but I can't see them getting onto the paddocks for at least another two or three weeks if it stops raining.
Ian McNamaraHOST
Yeah.
Brett PapworthHOST
I love this concept.
Brett PapworthHOST
We had a giant pink slug in Narrabri a couple of weeks ago, which took our interest, and we didn't know one existed.
Brett PapworthHOST
Now, it seems odd in what is a very dry landscape, and yet it's prolific with yabbies.
Brett PapworthHOST
So can I, if I'm up in Windora, can I just go and catch a handful?

Brett PapworthHOST
Seven plus, Richard.
Brett PapworthHOST
Seven plus.
Graeme HughesHOST
Just before we take a break, Gunadar Dan says, I'm thinking lots of yabbies in the northwest come for a yabbie trip and see the pink slug at Narrabri.
Graeme HughesHOST
Same time.
