Keep on keeping on

I’ve been a fan since I was a teenager and now almost forty years later still laugh out loud several times each episode. There has never been a better pair of social commentators in Australia may their reign continue.

Glad the boys are back again for 2023

It great to hear the words of wisdom from HG Nelson and Roy on the radio during COVID-19 times and now back in normal times. Have loved listening to you guys at school sport back in the late 80’s and now continuing the tradition with my kids. Long may they grace our airways. Keep up the great work boys!!!!!
