  • #129 Ben Fordham: A candid conversation with Australia's beloved radio host
    May 8 2024

    Apart of my morning routine is getting into my car and tuning into Ben Fordham on 2GB.


    It was great to finally sit down and chat with one of Australia’s leading voices on the radio.


    We covered a wide range of topics including Ben's family dynamics and insights from growing up with his father, John, a legendary talent manager, and his mother, Veronica. We also spoke about how the fear of failure motivates him, his early days in the radio industry, his process when interviewing prominent figures such as Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and internet sensation Spanian, current issues were facing in Australia, and much more.

  • #127 John Quayle: The man who revolutionised rugby league
    Apr 24 2024

    As someone who has been a rugby league fan since the '60s, it's fair to say that the NRL could be in its best state yet.


    Much of the strength we see in the game today is owed to the work of my latest Straight Talk guest, John Quayle.


    John served as the General Manager and CEO of the NSWRL and ARL from 1983-1996. Under his leadership, the game underwent significant changes, including the iconic Tina Turner campaign, the Super League War, and the sport's expansion throughout Australia.


    In this week's Straight Talk pod, John and I reminisced about the early days of rugby league, his role in professionalising the NRL, how he persuaded Tina Turner to sing in an NRL advertisement, his involvement in the Super League War, negotiation tales with Kerry Packer, and much more.

A straight review

An unexpected must listen for myself.

I have always found Mark Bouris interesting and charismatic. His genuine curiosity with his guests leads the conversations in a natural but comprehensive way.
At first I only listened to the guests I knew - but quickly found myself circling back around to listen to the rest.
All walks of life, backgrounds and topics - buts all doing things personally or professionally in a passionate manner.
Definitely recommended!
