Can you dig it?

Author: Game Changers: Radio April 18, 2025 Duration: 42:10

In this episode, we scratch below the surface of the $5million dawn dig, Kyle & Jackie O's first major live event in Melbourne. 

Also on the agenda this week is a discussion around the value of local content - can you do a “local” radio show from another market?

And we'll follow up Craig's recent take on Dave Hughes with some strong feedback from listeners on his perspective.
