Reviews

4.5 out of 5 stars from 23 ratings
  • Lovely pace for the weekend

    Darren James and his guests create a lovely relaxed background chatter for my weekend mornings. There’s always something new to learn about tech, gardening, appliances, construction, real estate and more. Darren has delightful rapport with callers, keeps experts focused on solutions, spices it up on politics and can go deep into life stories in long form interviews. 3AW Weekend Breakfast is the liquorice allsort of morning radio.
