  • Pete from Jerra

    Kane Cornes, a rare man of conviction in our sadly politically correct media is essential and enjoyable listening.

  • Good insights, considered opinions

    High quality, well researched, Hoyney is brilliant listening, Healey is fearless in his views and they are normally based on sound judgements. Cornes obviously respects him a lot, and as such he tempers his more ill-considered takes, which works well. Whitey is great and is prepared to give a contrarian position which is usually based on well-grounded logic.
