GARY CLARE, HOST: Remember before the news, I said, you know, we've got the Green in the Hands, First Time Friday and we've also got the Prime Minister coming up. And then we said, you know what? He could actually ring up for the quiz.

MARK HINE, HOST: Yeah.

GARY: Because he's never been on before. And there's nothing in the rules that says a Prime Minister can't play. First Time Friday, Grand in the Hand, win a $1,000. Good morning, Prime Minister.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning.

ANIKA WELLS, MEMBER FOR LILLEY: Welcome to Lilley, welcome to the Prime Minister, welcome to the Minister for Industry, Ed Husic, the Premier of Queensland, Steven Miles, and welcome to all the great minds at QUT and industry who join us here today to launch our National Battery Strategy right here at Banyo on the north side of Brisbane. Banyo actually was settled in the mid 1800s by German immigrant farmers.

ASHLEY “ASH” BRADNAM, HOST: We've got the Prime Minister in the studio. Prime Minister.

[RECORDING] PRIME MINISTER: Albanese.

SUSIE O’NEILL, HOST: Welcome, Prime Minister.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Something was happening there.

ASH: You haven't got your headphones on. Last time we had you on, we asked you for the correct way. Good morning, by the way. But we asked you for the correct way to pronounce your name and you told us.

KELLY HIGGINS-DEVINE, HOST: Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese. Good afternoon.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good afternoon. Can I cast my vote?

HIGGINS-DEVINE: Sure. Are you going banger or clanger?

PRIME MINISTER: Clanger. No, it's a shocker. It was ordinary in 1974 and it hasn't got better.

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

It is such a great pleasure to be joining you on Public Education Day – and to celebrate what is one of the most potent forces for good that we have.

All Australians can proudly point to public education as one of our great strengths as a nation.

A quality education system that is available to everyone regardless of their postcode, their wealth, faith or ethnicity.

The Albanese Government has today released the nation’s first National Battery Strategy, supporting a Future Made in Australia and shoring up our economic resilience and security.

The global demand for batteries is set to quadruple by 2030 as the world transitions to net zero, and our Strategy maps a path for Australia to take advantage of this growth to build a thriving battery industry.

It identifies four high-value strategic opportunities:

ANDREW CHARLTON, MEMBER FOR PARRAMATTA: Well welcome everybody. Welcome to Westmead, in the federal electorate of Parramatta, a proud Dharug Country. Parramatta is the most dynamic CBD in Australia, the fastest growing CBD in Australia, with more than a million square metres of office space being laid down. We're just metres from the Westmead Innovation Precinct, one of the world's leading centres of medical care and medical innovation. Parramatta is a growing city and an aspirational city.

Western Sydney is a place of opportunity.

It's one of the most diverse and dynamic regions in the country - a centre of Australian entrepreneurialism and aspiration, and a hub for economic growth and jobs - and it's also at the centre of my team's Budget.

Labor is investing in Western Sydney because we back Western Sydney. It's an exceptional place to earn a living, start a business, build connections and relationships, and raise a family.

MURRAY JONES, HOST: My special guest this morning, Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese. Good morning.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good to be with you. I'm sure it's another sparkling day up in the Tropical North, but always great to chat with you, Murray.

HOST: Our next guest is very important to a topic that we launched yesterday, the initiative called 36 months. We need you to go to 36months.com.au. We want you to sign the petition. The petition that says we need to change the age that kids can join social media from 13 to 16. We went through the statistics yesterday with the Premier Minns in the studio here. From 2008 to 2022, the rates of self harm doubled between the ages of 15 and 19. And how's this, tripled for girls under the age of 14.
