DAVID MARCHESE, HOST: Prime Minister, welcome back to Hack.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good afternoon, Dave. I'm very proud to be your first guest for the year.

MARCHESE: It's always good to start off with a big name talent like yourself. I want to ask, on this tax proposal that you've put forward, do you think that the plan changes that you've outlined are actually enough to help young Australians especially, who have been devastated by cost of living over the past couple of years?

LIAM STAPLETON, HOST: Albo joins us now. Do you have thick skin, Anthony, or does that still sort of get to you? A crowd of people booing?

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Oh, no, it's Australian tradition.

STAPLETON: You're saying that like you've booed other Prime Ministers at the footy and that sort of stuff.

PRIME MINISTER: No, but I've been at a lot of sporting events in the past.

FIFI BOX, HOST: Welcome to the show, our Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, team. I wasn't expecting to get that insight into Fev in the shower but it’s a way to start a Monday morning.

BRENDAN FEVOLA, HOST: Hey Albo, it's a beautiful sight. I'll give you the tip.

NICK CODY, HOST: The beer drinking?

FEVOLA: Yeah.

ANDREW CLENNELL, HOST: Prime Minister, thank you so much for joining us on our first Sunday Agenda of the year.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. Welcome back to Canberra.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER:  Well look, it's fantastic to be here in Orange with the Mayor, the local Federal Member Andrew Gee, the local State Member Phil Donato, Senator Deborah O'Neill, the MLC Lawrence and other Councillors and former Councillors. But importantly as well, community leaders who are with us here today. Orange, we have lift off. A $33.5 million project that will transform this region.

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet and I pay my respects to their elders past, present and emerging.                                       

It is such a pleasure to be with you all in Orange – a wonderful part of New South Wales that’s about to be made even better with the construction of the new Orange Regional Conservatorium and Planetarium.

It’s lift-off for Orange’s performing arts scene as work begins on the new $33.5 million world-class cultural hub for the region.

The new Orange Regional Conservatorium and Planetarium project will include:

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. And happy Australia Day, everyone. It is an incredible privilege and honour to be the Prime Minister of Australia. And last night at the Australian of the Year Awards, it was an inspirational time in the four categories of Volunteer of the Year, Senior Australian, Young Australian, and the Australian of the Year. The nominees from every state and territory are doing so much to make this greatest country on earth just that little bit greater.

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet and I pay my respects to their elders past, present and emerging.

Your Excellency, distinguished guests one and all.

My fellow Australians and my very-soon-to-be fellow Australians.

Every citizenship ceremony is an extraordinary event, a solemn occasion and a joyous one.

A formal commitment – and a warm embrace.

My great predecessor Ben Chifley officiated at the very first of these ceremonies 75 years ago, across the lake at Albert Hall.

ADAM SHIRLEY, HOST: You can probably hear in the background at the Australian of the Year Awards and the immediate after party, a lot of people milling around, enjoying their evening, milling and expressing and sharing the stories of what they've achieved across this nation. It really is a sight to behold as people enjoy and relax after what has been a momentous and emotional night. And one person who was overseeing it all was the Prime Minister of the country, Anthony Albanese.
