Personally, I'm a fan of Classic Rock, as any station that grabs it's nuts and plays Have A Cigar-Pink Floyd is fine by me. I just wish the speakers in my '93 Camry were better. Surprisingly, and I hope my GM doesn't read this, I don't miss the jocks. The programming features, imaging with artist grabs, news & 15 minute traffic updates in drive make it sound busy enough. As Dan says, I think it's great that Classic Rock is purely classic rock and doesn't pretend to be anything else. Also, contrary to Dan's tongue in cheek comments, I've listened to quite a few of these podcasts in their entirety and find them quite interesting. It's great to have access to industry professionals. Keep up the good work. Interesting to hear Dan’s comments about Classic Rock and compare to what I’ve heard since the launch of Classic Rock.

I have had to stop watching anything on 7. It's not enough that they've put him on the talent show, but every commercial break on every 7 program has him prancing and sniping. It's sickening. I thought I could escape him by not watching the talent show, but now every program has him in every commercial. Goodbye 7, I'll come back when he's gone, meanwhile. .... gee, I'm gonna miss Home and Away. He's even infected that program with his poisonous garbage. Not Sandilands again.

It's such a different scenario. The fact that Ch 7 is funding a show with his name???!!! I just think he should have disappeared for a while to recover from the scandal. Personally, I just empathise with the girl in the story. What happened was unforgivable. I do believe in rehabilitation but this is in a legal sense and to get a show is just horrible. He is profiting from this. An apology just doesn't cut it in this sense. I totally agree with Di re the Matty Johns issue. It’s such a different scenario.

No matter what I think of Kyle Sandilands this interview was just superbly conducted, mining for gold with the patience of a cobra!!! Ok not that I mean that you're actually as venomous as a cobra but just the observation/listening and then the probing skills, a deer sounds too namby pamby. Now I'm going to trawl through the other interviews. James Manning you’re an awesome interviewer.
