When the John Laws collared their suspect in the CEO assassination he was said to have had in his possession a ghost gun, some fake I.D., and a 262-word "manifesto." By the ghosts of Marx and Engels! That's what I call phoning it in. Except our man didn't use a phone to compose it. Or a laptop. It was handwritten. Whether on papyrus, stone tablets, or a shithouse wall was not made clear. What is abundantly clear, however, is that 262 words do not a manifesto make. And let me tell you why. "The Internationale (Traditional)" and "The Internationale (Death Metal Edition)" both come from YouTube. The typewriter comes from Freesound. The police siren, screeching tires, ballpoint scribbling, and game-show buzzer come from Zapsplat. All other evil racket is courtesy of Your Humble Narrator.
Audiophile Frank Iuston joins John to talk about all things sound and audio history. This week, Frank takes us through the audiosphere with clips from John Laws, Kel Richards and others, a montage of promos, themes and identifications from 2UE, and one featuring our very own John Stanley filing a report from then network station 2AY. Listen to John Stanley live on air from 8pm Monday to Thursday and 7pm Friday on 2GB/4BC.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In an unforgettable chat, Blackers sits down with the legendary John Laws as he prepares to sign off the airwaves after an astounding 71-year career. Known for his deep voice, golden microphone, and quick wit, Laws shares stories from his start in Bendigo at 18, his love for radio, and even some surprising dislikes—like his tense interview with Gordon Ramsay! In true Laws fashion, he keeps things real, sharing his best career advice in a single word: listen. From his favorite tipple, Wild Turkey (paired with Coke, depending on the hour), to his humorous reflections on the industry and what he'll miss most, it's a candid, heartfelt chat between two radio icons. Tim leaves with a big dose of inspiration and a few laughs from Laws' no-nonsense style.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today's show goes deep, betch! We kick off with a hole lot of drama—a woman working from home got fired after her company tracked her keystrokes, catching her in a major plot hole! Fair play, or is it digging too deep? Then, it's an emotional farewell as John Laws signs off for the last time. Tim gets into some classic Laws moments, with Laws leaving a hole in the world of radio that won't soon be filled. It's also New Music Friday, and we've got all the tracks you need to fill that weekend playlist hole. Plus, in a hilarious mix-up, a charity shop accidentally displayed a set of buttplugs in the window. Let's just say, they didn't mean to show that kind of hole to the world! We wrap up with Tim's Word Alarm and chat with our Caller of the Week, plugging the hole with laughs and the best moments from this week.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It was mid October when I invited Ray Hadley to be special guest on the occasion of our 500th podcast episode. Never once during the conversation did the legendary broadcaster so much as hint that he was contemplating calling time on his 2GB morning programme. We made arrangements to record the interview on the afternoon of Thursday November 5th. Like many of his listeners and colleagues I was stunned, when less than an hour into his programme on Thursday Ray made the shock announcement that December 13th is to be his final day in the 2GB studios. Television news crews were setting up in the building long before he finished his on air shift at midday. The broadcaster was inevitably “swamped” by media outlets for several hours. I wouldn't have been one bit surprised had he requested a postponement of our podcast interview, but I should have known better. True to his word Ray was ready to go when I called him as arranged at 4.30pm. I reminded him that nobody had seen this coming. He admitted it was a surreal experience to be announcing his own retirement from mainstream radio. I asked Ray to identify the likely reasons he was able to win 160 consecutive surveys. He nominated one particular story where his on air comments contributed to a better outcome. Ray made no secret of the fact that he won't be lost to media, but says the days of 3.30am wake up calls are over. He takes us back to childhood days as the son of hard working parents Morris and Elsie Hadley. Ray looks back on the massive impact of his father's death at just 46 years of age. He shares some funny stories from his eight years with Steers Auctions at Parramatta. He believes his experience as an auctioneer helped to develop his commentary skills. Ray says he was chuffed beyond belief in the early 80's when offered the role of Harold Park course broadcaster following the retirement of Ray Conroy. He takes us back to the days immediately after the Super League war when 2UE lost its Rugby League broadcast rights. 2UE's Continuous Call team made history when it continued to win the ratings without broadcasting the game. Ray pays a special tribute to the man they called “The Starmaker.” 2UE Programme Director the late John Brennan was lauded in the industry for his unique ability to spot potential talent from a mile off. Ray Hadley's career took a life changing turn in 2002 when John Singleton purchased 2GB. He initially poached Ray from 2UE to call Rugby League, but changed his mind soon after. The broadcaster was stunned when “Singo” asked him to take over the morning programme in opposition to 2UE's John Laws. Ray shares the full story. The multiple award winning broadcaster says he has no regrets about missing the opportunity to call 100 State Of Origins. Ray was privileged to be a member of the commentary team for seven Olympic Games. He says Cathy Freeman's unforgettable win in the 400m at the Sydney Olympics remains his fondest memory. He was agreeable to looking back on what he describes as the lowest point in his long career- the 2019 bullying allegations from a small group of staff members. He looks back with candour on a very unhappy time in his life. Ray talks with great affection of his children and grandchildren. Today he's the quintessential doting grandfather. It's a massive coincidence that Ray's retirement announcement came just a few hours before this podcast was recorded. No wonder he was in the mood to reminisce. Great to have him on our 500th podcast episode.
