- WONDERFUL
I’ve been a fan of Ryan’s dry, snappy and well thought out broadcasts for the past few years. When Kate Hawksby left I couldn’t imagine who could possibly follow, but by god Ryan’s done it!
He presents the facts, asks the questions we all want answered and is relentless in his approach. Couldn’t imagine a better result.
Early Edition is saved!
