    The Clarence Fishing Industry

    The Clarence fishing industry has a long and proud history and remains an important part of our local economy and way of life. This time on Richie’s Roundup, I chat with long-time Clarence fisherman Steve Everson about the challenges facing the industry. We discuss the impact of the industry shutdown following the white spot virus outbreak, the new restrictions facing local fishers, and what the long-term future looks like for this great Clarence industry. It’s an important conversation about an industry, the people who work in it, and what needs to happen to ensure it has a strong future. 🎧 Have a listen to the latest episode of Richie’s Roundup Podcast.

    The Green Seat Project a New South Wales first in Grafton and Yamba.

    This time on Richie’s Roundup Podcast, I chat with Jo Greensill about her journey, the story behind The Green Seat Project and her passion for ensuring missing people are never forgotten. Grafton and Yamba are now home to the first two Green Seats in New South Wales. The seats, installed at Corcoran Park in Grafton and Turners Beach in Yamba, are a powerful visual reminder of those who are missing from the Clarence Valley, while helping raise awareness of missing persons and the families and communities left searching for answers. This one is definitely worth a listen.

    Bob McFarlane OAM - Vietnam Veterans Day

    🇦🇺 Remembering Vietnam Veterans on Vietnam Veterans’ Day This week on Richie’s Roundup Podcast, I commemorate Vietnam Veterans’ Day by sitting down with Ulmarra local and Vietnam veteran Bob McFarlane OAM to hear his story of service, sacrifice and mateship. 2026 marks the 60th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan, fought on 18 August 1966. Just 108 Australian soldiers from D Company, 6RAR faced an estimated 1,500–2,500 enemy troops in a rubber plantation during a fierce three-hour battle in torrential rain. 18 Australians were killed and 24 were wounded. The Vietnam War saw around 60,000 Australians serve between 1962 and 1975, and today we remember every one of them — particularly those who never came home. It was a privilege to hear Bob share his experiences and reflect on the service of a generation of Australians. Lest we forget. 🇦🇺
