  • Having just listened to Jennifer Parker's very open and refreshingly transparent assessment of where Australia's navy is predicting its future direction and why i must say its hard to find any flaws in her arguments, its very reassuring to hear young intelligent future leaders of our armed forces getting on with the business of planning to be successful in our actions as opposed to the overtly self defeating penitent witch hunts our army seems obliged to inflict on itself at every opportunity

  • Just improved a LOT

    The quiz has arrived to this podcast, thus rocketing it up to my top 3 pods. Damn well done you lot. Other than that, if there’s a topic in which I have no interest, I can quite easily skip it. Seems simple to me.

  • Nightlife with Phil Clark

    I listen daily but have to shut it off from all the anti American and hate comments from Phil Clark. He suffers from Trump derangement syndrome.

    Funny how a lefty can get away from spreading lies and hate speech and be on a national radio station.

  • There is no "Arabian Gulf." Look at the history books, and you'll see that there has only ever been the Persian Gulf. However, due to the weak performance of the Iranian regime after 1979, some ill-informed individuals have ignored history and adopted the fabricated term "Arabian Gulf."

  • What about us?

    I would like the producers to realise that there are many retirees over 70 who listen to evening radio. We are not interested in superannuation topics, how to make money, talk about cars, office politics etc. Please cater for us too. I love the topics on armchair travel, history, interesting people, nature and birds, science, astrophysics, cooking….. Bored with PC stuff… Seem very slack at downloading segments.

    Still only a handful of interviews downloaded.
