…and besides, doesn’t 2SM (and possibly other SRN/BOG stations) already run some Crocmedia sports programing? ---

Yes - they take Off the Bench and Sportsday Qld - being the main network taking those particular streams of those programs. ---

Super Network FM stations now have Kyle and Jackie O’s “Hour” of Power 4-6pm weekdays, followed by NewFM breakfast best bits. They call themselves the “Novo’s”. Does anybody know why Novo’s? ---

It’s to my understanding that the new schedule started on May 9. I could perhaps understand running K&JO during drive, but the best bits of New FM breakfast…really? Wouldn’t it be better (if possible of course) for the regional stations to run a highlights version of their own breakfast show at 6pm? Or am I missing something here? ---

They’re single person breakfast shows in most markets, for their FM stations, it’s really another music shift. What best bits will you lift from that? ---

And apparently back in 1993, Graeme Gilbert was Liberal candidate for seat of Franklin down in Tassy. ---

I am in Mudgee and spent this morning listening to 2MG and John Laws. I don’t normally listen to John in Sydney as I cannot get reception of the awful 1269 signal in the gym. I had forgotten how good the John Laws Show is in the morning. Unlike Alan Jones he talks to callers for up to ten minutes. His insults are still legendary. Today’s classic quotes included: - “Are you as ugly as you sound?” to a woman before adding “Your poor husband” - “You old bat” - “Shut up” He was also very aggressive towards Pauline Hanson’s racism. Great radio. ---

Alan Jones is passive aggressive. John Laws is just up front rude! It was good to hear John ripping shreds off Pauline Hanson. If John’s abuse and denigration is directed at Pauline Hanson then it is entertainment. I never realised how much I missed Laws. It’s not love that I feel towards him. But it’s close. ---

Agree, it’s great radio because it’s entertainment. Trained in the great John Brennan style. Not infected by the Fairfax/Lang/Singo red tape. ---

That’s correct about Graeme Gilbert, the Liberal Party parachuted him into a blue ribbon Liberal seat. Unfortunately the electorate didn’t see his talent for connecting with people that is so obvious from his high-rating radio show, and he lost in an almost 10% swing.
