In keeping with our nostalgia format over the holiday break, here comes one of our favourite podcasts from 2019 with much loved Sydney media icon Graham McNeice. At the time this interview was recorded, Shadow had just finished his latest documentary The Masters Apprentice- the career of legendary jockey mentor Theo Green. He says the doco had been twenty years in the making. Graham explains how a copy of The Masters Apprentice can be accessed from the website. The man's famous nickname The Shadow is universally known around the industry. Not everybody knows how he got the tag. Graham explains. He looks back on his early life as one of six children growing up in the inner city suburb of Croydon Park where his father Syd had a butcher's shop. Syd hoped Graham would follow in his footsteps. Syd and Marion operated another flourishing little business within the confines of the shop. Graham talks about his father's friendship with Frank Kennedy who was a prominent figure in the Sydney fight game. Frank later began calling greyhound racing for 2KA Katoomba and took young McNeice under his wing. That led Frank to a job calling the dogs for 2UE and Graham tagged along. Before long Graham was appointed full time understudy to 2UE race caller Des Hoysted. He'd call a race or two at the midweek gallops, and fill in whenever Des was unavailable. Shadow still dines out on a funny story involving his trip to the 1973 Bong Bong Cup. He talks of his involvement with the popular Ch 7 Sunday program Punters Post Mortem. He remembers with deep sadness the loss of his great friend and mentor Frank Kennedy in the mid 1970's. Shadow looks back on his days as course commentator at the Harold Park dogs. He pays a special tribute to champion sprinter Roman Earl. He takes us back to the beginning of his long association with Channel 10. He started as a part time producer, but that quickly led to a more permanent role. The veteran was one of the pioneers of satellite sports television in Australia. He was the founding Executive Producer at Club Super Station. He looks back on a breakaway bid by the Kembla Grange race club to go exclusively with the satellite channel. Graham looks back on the beginning of Skychannel under the ownership of Alan Bond. The burgeoning company had a low key beginning in Perth, but McNeice played a part in having the operation moved to Sydney. He looks back on a nine year hosting role on Sky when the races were beamed into pubs and clubs only. Shadow reflects on the history making day in 1998 when the races were broadcast into homes for the very first time. He looks back fondly on a twelve year stint as host of the popular Sunday morning programme Racing Retro. He speaks fondly of the many sports documentaries produced by his company Shadow Productions. He makes special mention of a few favourites. If you missed this podcast in 2019, here's your chance to catch up. It's a lovely stroll down memory lane with one of Australia's great storytellers.
Frank is a lovely man who has lived a varied and interesting life, which leads to having many great stories to tell. In this chat we hear all about he started off his working life as a primary school teacher and then went through several career changes before coming back full circle as he now finds himself back in education. He is passionate about performing and is involved in many great groups that allow him to follow his passions. It's another truly fascinating chat and we can't wait for you to hear Frank's true story about making stuff up.

We're told about a game called Obliterate which BT have released on Prestel. You command a submarine and torpedo Argentinian submarines including one called "Fray Bentos". (You may have to look Prestel up on Wikipedia, it was like the internet but 1980). The phone lines are open for the Thameside listener charts. This week's chart is - 10:Layla/Derek and the Dominoes; 9:I Ran/Flock of Seagulls; 8:Nowhere Girl/B-Movie; 7:More Than This/Roxy Music 6:Fantastic Day/Haircut 100; 5:Is it a Dream/Classix Nouveaux; 4:Ghosts/Japan 3:The Damned Don't Cry/Visage; 2: Love Cascade/Leisure Process 1:Ever So Lonely/Monsoon. The broadcast is briefly introduced by Bob Edwards, but Paul James takes over. Paul has just come back from a working holiday in Cornwall, Sarah is also in the studio as is Ian the Engineer. After an hour (and a transmitter change) we get The Intrepid Birdman Show. There was a problem in the first 10 minutes with the batteries running flat in the cassette player. You can hear the the show sounding a bit slow. It then goes back up to speed. Dave tells us about the CB show at the Wembley conference centre which is relaying the broadcast. There is a pirate radio stand at the show. The first part of the show was broadcast from the Brentford tower blocks on Green Dragon Lane. This was used in 2014's "People Just Do Nothing" which started on YouTube and moved to BBC3 as the location for the fictional pirate Kurupt FM. Now Kurupt FM are real and playing festivals! Life imitating art imitating life. We learn that the site changes are done by "10-1 Teddy" and Ian the Engineer who has injured himself. There are brief moments during quiet patches of the songs where the transmitter switches off - the transmitter were designed to switch off quickly when the audio finished because it was the end of the show or when there was a transmitter change but they could be a bit enthusiastic and switch off briefly during a show! We're told about an experiment in 3D TV. However demand for the special glasses is so high they have had to delay the test to make some more. It will be broadcast on May 4th in a programme called "the Real World". 3D TV, 1982, maybe technology isn't moving on as quickly as we think. You can watch it here. After an hour with Paul and two with Dave this podcast finishes at 10pm or so. But keep an eye on your podcast feed or the siteas there is more to come on Thameside Radio Revisited from the same day and the next. We have Bob Edwards from later on this evening and the Thameside Radio picnic from Harrow on the Hill the next day (it was Easter Monday). And finally: Did you know that the voice on the "Thameside Radio Plays Good Music" is one of Dave's children? Recorded in Hyde Park during an OB!
