Graeme Gilbert's little highlight package/advertisment for his show is the funniest thing I've heard on that station.

Female caller : "You've ruined us,mate! We listened and got everything you told us to get and we bought it from our own pockets too! But you have just ruined 5 generations!"

Gilbert : ""All right, thanks for having your say."

On a serious note I hear today that that older bloke and regular caller who lived in a caravan I think in Port Macquarie passed away recently.
Genuine good bloke who just loved to have a decent chat. RIP

He used to have an ad where he was helping some old bird who was getting spam emails from Telstra, he tells her to delete the cookies, she goes no that is not it, and he just goes oh ok then. Riveting grab that one.

He's the best bloke on radio though. The India segment was awesome.

Damn, they still have links to Real One player when you select "listen live" from their website.

Do people still use that or am I out of touch here?

Even when there is a semi serious segment, stupid Hughes or Tunks can't help themselves with cringeworthy attempt at humour.
I don't know how they find these weirdo callers.....but some strange people out there...

It's like listening to a podcast of some irrelevant great uncle trying his granddad humour routine, whilst constipated. It's gut wrenching.

Its more like an appraisal at work what value add did you contribute to the company, like wise this show, they tell us to call on issues and know nothing about it. I listen to 2sm only because its the only radio station that still have lunatics calling up and it gets me laughing

And that, there, is one of the main problems with the show: they're incapable of having a serious debate with a caller. 99.9% of the callers just parrot the lines that Hughes and Tunks throw out. If anyone tries to question them they just ark up and start yelling and bagging the caller. Last week a caller attempted to question their support of Benny Elias' views on the Tiger's situation and they ended up questioning his right to do so because he hasn't played for NSW or Australia like Elias has. So what's the point of calling? For Hughes and Tunks, if anyone dares to question their point of view, the argument always boils down to: "I've played first grade and you haven't, so I'm right".

I hope that when I return from overseas Tunks has retired or been sacked. That guy has the brain the size of a pea.

Brickhead - the epitomy of the show and the type of person who listens. What an absolute bottom feeder. First caller today talking about some reunion which he went to that cost him nothing. Reeled off some names of people he spoke to (annoyed), and someone who has a horse which nobody knew. Sounded like he was on the bus home from it.

Sad.

I switched off knowing it will be a Bulldogs luvfest for the rest of the show - bad to worse.

The grab where he's interviewing the 100 year old is still my favourite.

GG: Here we have Mrs. Nellie Ball celebrating her 100th birthday, hello, Mrs. Ball?

Old Duck: Hello? Whos' this?

GG: Oh, well I'm a bloke, so you'd like me.

Awkward two second music grab before the show promo winds up.
