  • Radio royalty

    Kevin and Finey are total legends of Melbourne radio…been listening to them for a LONG time. But what happened to Brian Mannix?? Maybe you explain his absence in a past episode, I’ll have to go back and listen. Stephen J Peak also a complete legend, get him on regularly I reckon. Great job men.
