  • The Finest Resource for Any Broadcaster

    Game Changers has, somehow, elevated itself yet again. This podcast has been one of the biggest competitive advantages for my broadcasting career, and seems to only be getting better. I am not sure how sustainable this incredibly high standard is, but somehow, the team seems to be getting better each week. Thank you Craig, Irene and Wade for all the hard work. Your content is so good, it almost feels like cheating.

    Despite Melbourne’s overwhelming indifference towards K&J, the hosts remain obsessed, clogging up nearly every episode with the same tired, pointless chatter.... more

    From a long way away in Inverness and a long time ago since my time in radio, this is my absolute must listen every week. Plus it’s all about radio in Melbourne - favourite city in the world. What’s not to love?
