Saturday Extra is a quality programme hosted by one of Australia’s Best commentators and journalists. All of the interviews are well researched and the top-shelf guests really know their stuff. Saint Gerry is a national treasure, should be canonised as a secular saint, and to be honest, could merely read the phone book and I’d still listen to the poddie.

I spend a few weeks a year in eastern Australia on business and several hours each week on the phone with my colleagues in QLD and NSW. Saturday Extra is my primary means of staying informed about politics, business and other issues that impact the country. Madame Geraldine is a well-informed host - I am continually impressed with her understanding of the key success drivers of industries as diverse as finance, agriculture and resources.
