I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed listening to this episode. I like the round table type of discussions. But I have to say that the best part of the podcast was the round engine sounds by the Australia desk.
Go the Aussie dudes! Best part of the show (apart from the banter!)
been listening for ages but have never commented. Keep it up!
