Half a dozen people listen-in to Dobbie fill-in shows

Ageing Sydney broadcaster David Campbell, known well to his family and a small circle of listeners, took a break for a few weeks, leaving me in charge of his well-avoided Saturday morning show. If you missed them, and most people did, here’s a chance to listen to them online – choose the full show or the one with the music edited out.

September 10th, 2006 · No Comments · Radio Shows

Bruce “Spot” Potter presents Friday on My Mind on FM99.3. Strangely, it attracts a reasonably large audience – largely diet related.

An ancient recording of a show from 2005. It was captured on an old cylinder recorder, then digitally remastered to provide the high quality audio recording you can enjoy right here.
