    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.

    Phil regularly pokes fun of anything from the USA but half of his program revolves around USA. Between local events the mighty challenge it 50% USA.

    Daily comments about how stupid Americans are via language, geography etc., but Phil constantly sa... more

  • 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.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Anna Johnston writes about protagonists preparing for their own demise

Anna Johnston writes about protagonists preparing for their own demise
Q: How did you go about writing characters that have a different lived experience to you?
The author explains that while her characters come to her visually and are fully formed, she deliberately steps into their shoes with empathy, uses sensitivity readers, and consults friends who share those experiences to ensure authentic portrayal.
Retro TV
Q: Ian, what makes Retro Television a useful snapshot of Australian TV history?
The book consolidates a large nostalgia-driven catalog of shows, with clear summaries, photos, and contextual notes that help readers understand how TV reflected and shaped Australian culture across decades.
The Challenge: What officially is the border between NSW and Victoria?
Q: Which is the officially correct border between New South Wales and Victoria?

The Timelessness of The Catcher In the Rye
Q: What explains the enduring fascination with Salinger and Catcher even as attention shifts to other works and new media?
The guest points to the book's compact, potent packaging and the mythos surrounding Salinger—his reclusiveness and control over his work—that keeps public interest alive; the book's ability to stand as a cultural touchstone, with powerful scenes and memories tied to New York landmarks, fuels ongoing debate and renewed appreciation across generations.
