  • Featuring bullies in your ā€œThe Year That Made Meā€ segment is a terrible look, ABC.

    No one likes bullies. Don’t feature them.

  • Interesting and well considered

    For a while I thought of Sunday Extra as the little cousin to Saturday Extra, but through the choice of excellent and often left-field guests it has become my go to weekend choice. Great work Julian and team.
