Under-utilised legend. Should've been presenting the news or breakfast shows all these last few years. Would've had a better (funny) take than any of the forgettables we have now. Honestly we need comedy back on the mainstream outlets.

With genocides, internationally illegal wars, and the US generally fucking themselves up, et al, what can a presenter do but poke fun at all the ridiculous down playing and self censoring the media does. An agro character would be perfect for our times on a couple levels.

Don't know why my mind went on that little diatribe. Anyway, will be well missed by me.

I think him admitting he repeatedly exposed himself to radio co-hosts Wendy Harmer and Paul Holmes under the guise of a “harmless joke” may not have helped his career.

Oof! Did not know that. Possibly should have read the article, instead of goin off warm memories.
