JACKIE O, HOST: An impromptu call out of the blue, just to have a chat and say ‘hi’, it's our Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese.
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Hey, how you going?
JACKIE O: How you going?
PRIME MINISTER: How are you enjoying the Olympics?
JACKIE O: Oh, you're not allowed to say that word. You're gonna get censored.
PRIME MINISTER: I am allowed to say that word!
LINDSAY MCDOUGALL, HOST: We are now joined by the Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese. Thank you for being with us.
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: G'day, Lindsay. Good to be with you.
MCDOUGALL: So, yesterday you said of Barnaby Joyce, get your act together or move on. Not quite sure what this bloke's got to do to be moved on. Do you still think the Member for New England needs to be moved on by the Coalition?
I’m delighted to be here today to help launch Michael Easson’s thoughtful and important book.
Among all these distinguished guests, can I give a special acknowledgement to the members of the Watson family who are here with us.
It is strange to think that the first Federal Leader of Australia’s oldest political party and the Prime Minister in the world’s first Labor Government remains something of a mystery.
This book shows us John Christian Watson is a mystery well worth investigating.
DR MIKE FREELANDER, MEMBER FOR MACARTHUR: It's been fantastic to have the Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese out to the Macarthur electorate today to open the Shepherd Center in Macarthur, which is world's best practice hearing management for children with hearing loss, including babies born with congenital deafness. And really great day today, a fantastic group of people, fantastic group of kids in the most fertile area of New South Wales. So wonderful to have Anthony Albanese here today. I'm very grateful to him for the support he's giving to kids and young families.
Parents in southwest Sydney will get better hearing support for their children, thanks to the delivery of an Albanese Government election commitment to help fund the opening of The Shepherd Centre in Oran Park.
The Shepherd Centre in Oran Park was officially opened today to help children with hearing loss develop their listening, spoken language, literacy, and social skills.
FIFI BOX, HOST: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. Welcome back to Fifi, Fev & Nick.
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. I was expecting you guys to sing it.
BOX: Well, we nearly had to because the computer melted for a moment.
NICK CODY, HOST: Fi and Josiah don't have synergy.
GREG JENNETT, HOST: Prime Minister, welcome back to the program. Why don't we start with Barnaby Joyce? We heard your admonition of him and Peter Dutton earlier in the day over Mr Joyce's remarks about ballots being a bullet and a ballot box being a magazine. Barnaby Joyce has apologised, Peter Dutton says it is appropriate that he did that. So having distanced himself from it, shouldn't that be the end of it?
KIERAN GILBERT, HOST: Prime Minister, thanks very much for your time. In your reshuffle announced yesterday, you even had a Special Envoy for Social Cohesion announced, today we see this quote from Barnaby Joyce. He was at a rally against offshore wind proposals, and he said, I'll quote it to you and get your reaction. He said, ‘The bullet you have is that little piece of paper in that magazine called the voting box. Get ready to load that magazine. Goodbye Chris, goodbye Stephen, goodbye Albo’. What do you make of that language?
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Welcome everybody, and welcome to some of the new faces who are here around the Cabinet Room of our Government. It's an incredible privilege to be a Member of Parliament, to have the great honour of being in government elevates that, because that's how you can actually make change. And to serve in the Executive of the Government is an incredible honour, and I know that all of you won't take it for granted and will work each and every day. Our priority is, of course, cost of living relief.
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good afternoon, today we remember the four Australian Defence Force personnel who lost their lives near Lindeman Island one year ago today. Captain Danniel Lyon, Lieutenant Maxwell Nugent, Warrant Officer Class 2 Joseph Philip Laycock, and Corporal Alexander Naggs from the 6th Aviation Regiment. Our thoughts are with their families, their loved ones, their friends and the entire Australian Defence force community.
