  • MOSTLY INFORMATIVE

    Chris is an informative presenter, most of the time, with the only exception that he is a climate change denier. You can’t be a climate change denier, and claim at the same time to be informative. Do your homework Chris, and only then will you become one of the top radio presenters in Sydney. ✅✅✅

  • Most biased podcast I've ever listened to.

    Right wing rubbish. Don't listen to this podcast unless you like hearing fascists talk to other fascists. Ramblings of a completely biased neo-conservative old man

Weekends with Luke Grant, 26 September 2026
Q: Do you smell a rat?
Jane Hume says she would attribute the timeline to a mistake rather than a conspiracy, but argues the breach exposes weak cybersecurity at Services Australia. She says Australia should work with AI companies and use advanced AI tools to detect attacks and strengthen defenses.

Q: What did you make of the Intergenerational Report?
Leith Van Onselen calls it a political document and compares it with the 2002 report. He argues that migration far exceeded its forecast while productivity and per-capita outcomes lagged, and says future migration projections repeat a pattern that has not improved living standards.
Weekends with Luke Grant - Saturday 3 October 2026
Q: What can you tell me about what police told you?
Newcastle Lord Mayor Gavin Morris said the initial police briefing indicated the driver was a P-plater and a fan who lost control after revving his engine. He said the crash appeared accidental and that at least nine people were injured.

Q: How do we make it safe to have the traditional team send-off while looking after the community and fans?
Gavin Morris says the route and event will need to be reconsidered, as the crowd was unusually large and the crash happened on a state road under police control.
