Forget "Footloose" and "Danger Zone"—Dave and Rob are digging into the 80s movie deep cuts you forgot you loved. This isn't your average Top 10; it's a high-octane countdown of the best "non-mainstream" tracks to ever grace the silver screen. In this episode, the guys bypass the obvious radio hits like "Ghostbusters" and "The Power of Love" to celebrate the under-the-radar anthems and moody synth masterpieces that defined 80s cinema. From cult classic montages to the songs that gave indie sleepers their soul, Dave and Rob debate which tracks truly captured the era's magic without leaning on the Billboard charts. Whether it's a gritty rock track from a forgotten action flick or a shimmering pop gem from a teen drama, they're proving that the best movie music often lives in the shadows of the blockbusters.

From a vivid New York childhood to restarting life in Australia at ten, Jack shares the moments that shaped him before Southern Sons ever hit the charts with Heart In Danger and the songs that still define 90s Australian rock for so many of us.We get into the obsession that turns a kid with a ukulele dream into a serious guitarist: the long practice days, the breakthrough plateaus, and the mentors who pulled him into bands and studio work early. Jack also breaks down the myth of the “overnight success” and what changes when the industry machine kicks in, from demos to touring to the pressure of suddenly being the voice at the front of the stage.Then we fast-forward to the choices that matter now: stepping away from The Fabulous Caprettos, building a recording studio, and protecting creative space for new records. Jack explains why Southern Sons leans into nostalgia without turning the music into a gimmick, how the band is refreshing the show with new energy, and what fans can expect when those classic hooks meet a tighter, hungrier lineup.If you care about live music, songwriting, and how artists balance legacy with growth, hit play.

Luke Darcy sits down with Luke Tunnecliffe - a man who has spent most of his career behind the scenes shaping the biggest moments in Australian sport and media. From walking into Collingwood at 17 to decades in the Triple M Footy chair and building JamTV alongside Eddie McGuire, Luke is a steady hand. A connector. A storyteller. He’s been in rooms with Usain Bolt. Backstage with John Farnham. In Shane Warne’s man cave while Ed Sheeran played DJ. But this conversation isn’t really about any of that. It’s about Jack. Luke and his wife Amy are raising three children, including their son Jack, who is nonverbal and autistic. Unwilling to accept treatment with no promise of positive change, they have spent years trying to understand what might help, and how to hold a family together when life doesn’t look the way you thought it would. Luke speaks honestly about the strain - the financial weight, the exhaustion, the impact on siblings, the friendships that fall away and the ones that step up. He talks about the way music became a lifeline for Jack. And how in one extraordinary moment, Ed Sheeran sat with his guitar beneath the MCG and sang to him - calming him in a way few others could. And then came a treatment plan that has changed everything. While there’s still a long journey ahead, the treatment has already led to the moment that Luke will hold onto for the rest of his life - Jack putting his arms around his neck and saying the three words he’d been waiting years to hear. This is an episode about resilience, fatherhood, mateship - and what it feels like when hope slowly starts to return. This conversation reflects Luke and his family’s personal experience.

In this episode, Sandy Kaye sits down with one of the true pioneers of Australian rock music — Ross Wilson. With a career spanning more than six decades, Ross has shaped the sound of Australian music as a performer, songwriter and producer.From his early beginnings in Melbourne in the '60s, Ross quickly became part of the thriving local music scene. Inspired by blues records and armed with a harmonica, he joined his first band The Pink Finks while still at school, scoring a local chart hit with their version of Louie Louie. In an era when dance halls were packed with teenagers eager to hear live bands, Ross honed his craft performing night after night.After experimenting with original songwriting and travelling to England, Ross returned to Australia full of ideas. By '70 he formed Daddy Cool, a band that would change Australian rock forever. Their breakthrough hit “Eagle Rock” became a national phenomenon, spending weeks at number one and becoming one of the most iconic Australian songs ever recorded.Ross shares the fascinating story behind the creation of Eagle Rock — from the blues influences that inspired its riff to the unusual way the song was written across continents. He also talks about Daddy Cool's wild stage shows, the band's rapid rise to fame and their attempts to break into the American market.Beyond performing, Ross also played a crucial role behind the scenes in Australian music. As the producer of Skyhooks' groundbreaking debut album, he helped launch one of the most influential bands of the '70s and opened the door for a new wave of Australian rock artists.Ross later returned to the spotlight with Mondo Rock, scoring a string of major hits. During this time he continued writing, producing and collaborating with artists including John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes.Today, Ross Wilson remains as passionate about music as ever. He continues to perform live, write new songs and connect with audiences who have grown up with his music.In this warm and engaging conversation, Ross reflects on the highs, the surprises, the creativity and the longevity that have defined one of the most remarkable careers in Australian music.Ross Wilson's early days in Melbourne's '60s music sceneJoining his first band The Pink FinksSongwriting with The Party MachineTravelling to England and discovering new musical ideasThe formation of Daddy CoolThe story behind the iconic hit “Eagle Rock”Daddy Cool's rise to national fameProducing the groundbreaking debut album for SkyhooksThe formation and success of Mondo RockWriting classic hits including Cool World and Come Said the BoyCollaborating with artists such as John Farnham and Jimmy BarnesRoss Wilson's continuing career and new musicIf you enjoythis episode of A Breath of Fresh Air with Sandy Kaye, make sure to subscribe so you never miss a conversation with the legends of music.This one in particular is a warm, entertaining and insightful look at the life and music of a true Australian rock pioneer.

We talk shop, but also about the quiet work: mixing on a laptop until time to take the stage, dialing back the studio grind when the road gets heavy, and protecting the joy that fuels a long career. The Great Australian Songbook national tour is built for discovery.

Beloved classics chosen for feel, not obligation—yes, that means he's happy to skip Khe Sanh and Great Southern Land when the moment calls for a different mood.Away from the lights, Michael talks about parenting three young daughters, learning piano for the mind as much as the music, and modeling what it takes to turn a wild passion into real work.Join us for a warm conversation that blends behind-the-scenes stories with practical wisdom for musicians and fans. If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves Aussie music, and leave a quick review to help others discover it.What has Michael Paynter been up to lately?  Let's find out!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au

Strap in and charge up the Mr Fusion, because this week on Born To Watch, the boys head back, forward and sideways through time with our full Back to the Future Part 2 (1989) Review. Whitey, G Man and Will settle into the DeLorean for one of the most ambitious sequels of the 1980s, breaking down timelines, hoverboards, self-lacing Nikes and all the glorious 80s optimism jammed into Robert Zemeckis' wild ride.The episode kicks off with the crew riffing on 1989 as a powerhouse movie year, then quickly dives into how Back to the Future Part   2 faced enormous expectations. With a to be continued tease at the end of the original, fans were primed, and the pressure was real. As the boys say, sequels rarely outshine their predecessors, but every now and then you get an Empire Strikes Back or a T2. So where does this one land?Whitey shares how the film was a childhood favourite, the one he rewatched the most, and how time has shifted his appreciation back to the original. Gow reveals he saw it at the cinema on release and has clocked well over 15 viewings since, instantly transported by Alan Silvestri's iconic score. Will talks about how the franchise has simply always been there, one of those movies that defined growing up.From there, the episode fires through the good, the bad and the very strange. There's deep love for the hoverboard, the power-lace Nikes, and that brilliant rooftop confrontation where Marty lures Biff over the edge before swooping up in the DeLorean. The crew gives full credit to the groundbreaking split-screen effects, the energy of Michael J. Fox juggling multiple characters, and the perfect dual performance from Fox and Christopher Lloyd, who are operating at peak one-two punch level.They also dig into the weird bits the film never fully explains. Could Old Biff actually operate the DeLorean? Why does he get sick travelling through time when no one else ever has? Why do Jennifer and Jennifer faint from seeing each other, but Biff does not? How does Marty not realise Hill Valley 1985 has turned into a dystopian biker slum the moment he steps out of the car?From Jaws 19 to the brilliant Jaws VHS window cameo, from Indiana Jones nods to manure trucks, the boys unpack every Easter egg this film throws at you. And of course, there's a big chat about whether Biff Tannen's alternate 1985 persona is really just 80s Donald Trump in a green tracksuit. (Spoiler, yes.)The episode also dives into box office numbers, casting trivia, Elizabeth Shue stepping in as Jennifer, and some cracking tangents, including Huey Lewis, yacht rock, Stranger Things, The Little Mermaid, and even John Farnham fronting LRB.By the time the boys reach question time, they've covered everything from the butterfly effect through to whether a single rich bloke can really break the fabric of time. It's pure Born To Watch chaos, big laughs and deep nostalgia for one of the great sequels of our generation.If you love time travel, manure trucks and three blokes talking absolute cinematic nonsense, make sure you follow Born To Watch on Spotify and Apple.

Join Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musicians.Australian rock legend Ross Wilson opens up in this fascinating backstage conversation just moments before taking the stage on his record-breaking "50 Years of Hits" tour. With the tour expanding to over 150 shows, this marks the most extensive touring schedule of his 60-year career—proving that retirement isn't in his vocabulary.From humble beginnings in Melbourne church choirs to forming iconic bands, Ross shares the pivotal moments that shaped his extraordinary journey. He reveals how Daddy Cool emerged from his experimental band Sons of the Vegetal Mother, becoming the surprise hit of the 1971 Myponga Festival before they'd even released a record. Their pioneering music video for "Eagle Rock," filmed at this festival, helped propel them to nationwide success—years before MTV made music videos essential.Beyond his performing career, Ross offers insights into his work as a producer, including discovering and producing Skyhooks, whose success eventually surpassed Daddy Cool's record-breaking sales. Though selective about production work, his golden touch extended to working with Jo Jo Zep and The Falcons, The Screaming Jets, and writing hits for other artists—including "Touch of Paradise" for John Farnham and "I Come In Peace" for Joe Cocker's final recording.The conversation takes unexpected turns through Ross's television appearances, his induction into the ARIA Hall of Fame (twice!), and the peculiar pants-dropping tradition that accompanies "Eagle Rock" at weddings and parties across Australia, revealing plans for attempting a world-record charity event around this unique phenomenon.Despite his legendary status, Ross remains refreshingly grounded. His latest blues EP tackles modern social media addiction, showing his continued relevance while honoring his musical roots. As he continues selling out venues with his band The Peaceniks, it's clear that after six decades, Ross Wilson isn't just still rocking it—he's reaching new heights.Subscribe now to hear more intimate conversations with the artists who shaped Australian music history!What has Ross the Boss been up to lately?  Let's find out!!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au
