  • Boring.

    Sorry but Tony is not a patch on the previous incumbent. It’s a pouring show with few guests that are also dull. Nothing funny or quirky; the best callers have deserted this show. And if you call up Tony talks down to anyone right of centre. I’ve had to move over to the other mob!

    Hi there new listener here. Why are your sound levels so low? It wasn’t like this when Simon was filling in. Wonder if you can fix it? Thanks, enjoying the chat 😊

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Antiques & Collectables - Rick Milne with Tony McManus - Wed 21 Oct, 2026
Q: What bearing would this three-peat team have on prices, such as the value of memorabilia from Leigh Matthews' dynasty?
Milne says football memorabilia value depends on the club's collectability, and that success alone does not make a team the most collectible.
Antiques & Collectables - Rick Milne with Tony McManus - Wed 21 Oct, 2026
Q: Rick, as to which team would be the most collectible in Australia?
Milne says University Football Club is the rarest collectible team, while Hawthorn is the most collectible among familiar current clubs, followed by Collingwood and St Kilda.
From the Summary Podcast - Rethinking Exams in the Age of AI
Q: Can the current assessments we use survive in an AI world?
Leslie Loble says assessment remains important, but its form should vary. High-stakes end-of-course tests should be tightly controlled, while lower-stakes assessment can use other formats and allow for AI-supported learning and feedback.
From the Summary Podcast - Rethinking Exams in the Age of AI
Q: What are schools already seeing when it comes to students leaning on AI in the classroom?
Andy Mison says students widely use AI for homework, drafting, research and revision. Some use it constructively, but he is concerned that handing over the thinking can prevent them from developing important capabilities.

Q: Prince Harry now, he's done an interview talking about the idea of reconciliation. He says something to which he is committed.
Brady says Harry wants to restore relationships with his father and brother, while some of Harry's relatives may be wary after his public interviews and disclosures. He notes that Harry's comments about some people lacking interest in reconciliation were interpreted as a swipe at Prince William, though Harry's representatives disputed that reading.
