No Holds Barred

Delighted to welcome back to the show my friend Alexandra Marshall. She sent me a message during the week and suggested she ask me some questions. Like a mug I agreed. We talk about her latest bit for Penthouse and I explain why I won't get into politics among other things. We cover a lot of ground. Such a great young mind. I like her a lot.

This week I'm joined by Labor Senator from WA Glenn Sterle for a wide ranging discussion. He didn't dodge and weave or duck a question. I thank him for his time and his efforts to make a difference.

Finally! The long awaited Danny McMaster show. i had a ball recording with Danny. i got a lot more than I bargained for that's for sure. Grab ya favourite bevvy and get ready for a laugh. Thanks to Andy for going the distance and getting this one out.

The show must go on! Unfortunately old mate Andy is down for the count. So it's fallen to me to have a crack at editing and getting an episode out. Andy has been working on the Danny McMaster episode (its about 2/3 done) so its going to be a little longer. My apologies to Danny for that. Today Ross Cameron Joins me for what i consider to be an entertaining conversation about a utube video Ross told me about and some other bits and pieces. Discover the wisdom of Marcus Aurelius.

Caroline Di Russo, corporate lawyer, Contributor at the Spectator Australia and Sky News among other achievements joins me for a chat. What a Lady! Her insight, wit and opinions made our chat a lot of fun for me. Thanks once again to my Audio guy Andy for his sterling work and our apologies for running late. both of us have been in the wars and its tough to make it happen sometimes. our next episode features one of the funniest guys I've ever come across. Look out for that one soon. Take care out there.

This week it's motoring journalist Paul Maric joining us for a chat. This bloke has what most petrol heads would call the dream job. hes a self made man and a lot of fun to chew the fat with. Thanks to my friend and producer Andy who is struggling a bit with illness for once again getting it done. I appreciate it.

This week we have Fred Glasbrenner. We chat about his book Journey of a lifetime, his amazing life. you just never know whats going to happen next.

Today we chat about his book and other travels. Once again Id like to thank my producer Andy for his sterling work. He does deserve a round of applause for making us sound good.

This is an unedited conversation I had with Steve Corcoran from the Transport Inquiry Podcast. June 14th 2020. I'm reproducing it here with Steve's permission. Its a bit dry I know but it's a conversation that needs to be had. On a lighter note because this is unedited and hasn't had the magic touch on my producers Andy on it you can understand the huge task i set with what i give him to work with and what a fantastic job he does!

This week on the No Holds Barred Podcast I chat with James Graham, Editor of Big Rigs Newspaper in the final part of our series on the Transport Industry. Next week we share the amazing story of a man who drove from Australia to Germany in a 4 wheel drive Postie Van. The following week you'll hear my interview with a bloke who did the reverse journey from Germany to Australia, arriving in Melbourne in time for the 1956 Olympic Games .. He completed this journey .. wait for it .. on a pushbike ! Enjoy the show .. stay safe .. Mick the Oz Trucker PS. I also want to add a great big thankyou to my producer Andy who does all the back end work fixing my mistakes and making it all sound good. I wouldn't have the quality audio I have without his tireless effort.

This week part 2 of our three part Transport Conversation. Lyndon Watson from Don Watson Transport joins me in a wide ranging discussion on current issues in road transport from his point of view as an employer. He's been there and done that in road transport, and he's right into technology and corporate responsibility. I have no hesitation recommending Watson's to fellow drivers looking for a good company. Next week I'll be joined by James Graham, Editor of Big Rigs Newspaper.

Welcome to the No Holds Barred Podcast .. In this weeks episode I chat with Barry Grimson, a man who's been on the road in the transport industry for a long time, and who was one of the leaders of the legendary Razorback Blockade in 1979. I've known Barry for a number of years, and have a great deal of respect for him as a man, and for his experience, his knowledge and his great sense of humour. I hope you enjoy this candid conversation between a couple of old truckies (and mates) as we reminisce about the past, and look into the future.

Welcome to the No Holds Barred Podcast. In this weeks episode I am joined for a chat by John Ruddick, the well known and often outspoken political commentator.

Thanks to my producer Andy for getting this show all polished up and out on time.

This week we have Dougal Cameron from Carnage House Productions. Dougal is a young bloke I met through Twitter and was recommended to me as a potential guest by Alexandra Marshall. We're on opposite sides of the fence on a few issues but that's ok. We discuss issues surrounding China, Corona Virus, Australia's response and much more. I like the fact we could have a frank and open chat. I'm not afraid to say I learned some things through our conversation. Once again i want to thank Andy from Riversong for his help with the audio. Don't know what i'd do without his efforts. You can hear more Carnage House on UTube and you can follow @HouseCarnage on Twitter Enjoy the podcast.

This week I chat with the wonderful Prue MacSween. What a wonderful lady what a wonderful conversation. We cover a lot of ground and nail our colours to the mast on a few subjects. I thank Prue so much for her time and contribution.

This is an epic! I make no secret I'm a big fan of Nicks. This bloke does some amazing stuff. He's interviewed some very interesting people and was kind enough to get on have a chat. It's a wide ranging one at that. He started in old media mainly radio @LBC and others plus some TV work. You can connect with all things Nick via his twitter @NickMargerrison I've really got to thank my mate Andy from Riversong who cleans up all my audio mess and makes it sound good. Id be lost without his help and advice.
