Thank You Very Much Sully, I Appreciate that.
Did anyone record that or is the show posted online?

No unfortunately, 3AWâs weekly Monday 2pm TV segment with former The Age TV writer Scott Ellis (usually with Denis Walter) isnât uploaded, because (quote when I asked years ago) âthe program is too large to podcastâ or something like that.
Have to set your alarm to remind you to tune in, it is definitely live streamed through various platforms.
Whatâs this âcampaignâ we are referring to?

They told you a porky. Neil Mitchellâs full program of about two hours is available every day. 2GB also has full programs available.

Well NO they wonât, John Stanley commences a new weekend programme from next week and my guess it will be mainly a âTalking Lifestyleâ format. Will this mean the end of NRL games on 2GB?? If Macquarie Sports Radio continues my betting is that the NRL calls will switch over.
Not a chance⌠Macquarie will do absolutely nothing that undermines the supremacy of 2GB and at the moment that includes NRL.
Weekend ratings are, I believe, quite healthy and thereâs big sponsorship dollars tied up with the league.
The only way I can see NRL departing is if thereâs a proven and sustained ratings downturn, a solid ratings performer presents itself as an alternative (and John Stanley doing lifestyle is not the answer) and sponsorship deals can be retooled for MSR at the same money (which wonât happen)

A shame about the Summer Edition getting axed. Good as a very light relief program on weekends in contrast to what usually airs on 2GB during the week.
Good round of killing off sports shows, NRL footy show axed thankfully.

This could be a good thing. For once MML may be encouraging sports fans to tune to MSR.
I can understand sponsorship, contracts and the whims of Ray Hadley but if MML were serious it should have been the case from the very start. Of course if MSR comes to an end all bets will be off

Looking at the MML results for the last year, the dividend payed by MML is pocket change for John Singleton and Alan Jones. Gloria was paid $2,666.67, while Singo got $2,214,268.20. Fairfax received $3,727,860.48 and Russell Tate and his wife Caroline got $18,305.12.

Alan Jones doesnât like a decision relating to a promotion for the Everest horse race made by Louise Herron who is the chief executive officer of the Sydney Opera House. So Jones told Herron if she didnât do what he wanted he would phone up NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian to get Herron sacked. Typical rant from Jones who thinks he runs New South Wales. Nothing wrong with Jones disagreeing with Herron, but he doesnât hire and fire public servants.
Louise Herron with Peter Vâlandys, the chief executive officer of Racing NSW, on the Alan Jones program this morning:

Interesting that it seems there was no official statement that the Weekend Detention nonsense had been dropped or maybe shafted over to MSR. 2GB now has John Stanley starting at 2pm but no mention of what is happening between 1 and 2. Well typical of Macquarie Media I guess
Hopefully George and Paul getting one of their missing hours back.

I think you mean Justin Smith. Both these Justins being the exception to the assertion on Family Guy that all Justins are âKEWLâ and live a hard core âJustin lifestyleâ.
