  1. Out of context, that 'I no longer watch my radio' statement might sound a little odd ...

    A few years ago, I was given Maccas 'Why I live where I live' - it's a fascinating book! But that's because people other than M are telling the stories...

    Wonder how many of those who dote on him actually like him - and not the content that's actually provided by other people??

  2. The two times I've heard Trevor Chappell present Australia All Over (during Macca's hols) I was blown away by the massive difference made by both the professional approach and the amount of info the interviewee was able to impart to listeners without the presenter barging in with opinons.
    Love listening to Trevor Chappell on the Overnighters but he brings such a fresh approach to the Sunday morning show it was fabulous.

  3. Red, it is a bit like a phrase that has only been heard in the last twenty years, 'I'm on a train/tram/bus'. I heard a couple of the Coodabeens host the programme, perhaps a couple of years ago and they were first class.

    Trevor is good Jayne, but I was busy when he was relieving for Macca and so did not pay attention. I'll endorse him because you say so.

  4. National news from Sydney is a joke, often words fail to describe how parochial it is.

  5. Ben, imagine what it is like for those who live in the BAPH cities.

  6. Hey what's all this Sydney bashing!? Don't we all think those things when we hear other cities' broadcasts?

    I watched my digital radio too when I first purchased it but was soon bored with the scrolling messages that told me nothing interesting. Worse still I disliked the strange alignment of letters like 'g' on my set - yes I know I am very anal about these things - and now take no notice whatsoever of the scrolling text.

  7. Now now Victor. Save your outrage for when I really blast the sex ridden, drug taking, money obsessed stinking filth hole. This time it is the SBC I am having a go at, not Sydney.

    Indeed, watching the screen is boring. I know what you mean about the g. If offends me too. There is no room below for a proper g. Using upper case would have solved the matter.

  8. '..the sex ridden, drug taking, money obsessed stinking filth hole..'

    For a moment I thought you were referring to me....

  9. Victor, we all know you are a paragon of virtue.

  10. I love TC and I try to send in sms's to his overnights show when I can't sleep on my days off. I've had quite a few read out. Macca however is revolting. He makes me wanna throw the radio out.

  11. Fen, I don't know much about him because of the time he is on. I have heard him occasionally in the last half hour of his show.
