  • Great show love peakee

    Love the show but just 30-40 mins too long . Love the music segment but could do without the long drawn out tips … keep up the good work and Stephen peake is one of the most intelligent & funniest guys going around

  • 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.
