Love this gardening talkback program. Would award it more stars if the Saturday version was actually uploaded to the podcast app. Yes I can download the last 2 weeks from the ABC’s website but that doesn’t provide the same replay flexibility. Please ABC Perth, post the Saturday podcast to the app.

Love this gardening talkback program. More recently I’ve enjoyed the regular posting of this podcast after years of irregular posting. However both the Saturday July programs have failed to be posted as podcasts. Such a shame as I can’t listen on a Saturday.

Happy Naked Gardening Day!
Apple Podcasts5Courtland WatersAustraliaa year ago - Refreshing
This gardening show is easy-listening, informative and at times a total crack up. Slightly un-PC which is sooo refreshing after all the heavy stuff on the airwaves. It’s brought me back into my garden too. Thank you so much. Lizzie WA
