    Please sort the podcast mix out - you have to turn the volume up full to hear it but then the adverts explode at you as they are about ten times louder than the show

  • PLEASE ASK YOU GUESTS TO STOP DRINKING ETC ON YOUR SHOW!!!

    Could you and your guests ( particularly Conroy) do us the courtesy of not swallowing drinks or chewing/swallowing during their segment.

    It’s extremely difficult to ignore and disconcerting.

    Perhaps someone could show them how to wear / setup the microphone.

The Bolt Report | 2 March
Q: After less than 48 hours, what has been achieved? Is it more than you expected?

The Bolt Report | 23 February
