We don’t know who Daniel Andrews is, but we voted anyway

Who is Daniel Andrews? Well, he’s the new premier of Victoria. The only thing voters knew was he has nothing to do with Tony Abbott.

The Victorian state election came as the Prime Minister meticulously worked his way through a broken list of promises, as the media played back his promises not to break promises. That, plus the wash up on last week’s show, when I upset Islamophobes and ABC lovers in equal measure. Who will be offended this week – tune in to find out.

What is Balls Radio?

Balls Radio is like talk radio, but for thinking people. Now a short daily occurrence, Phil Dobbie offers his opinions on what's happening, in the UK and overseas: politics, social policy, economics, science, religion. Yes, it's another, slightly overweight middle-aged white man telling the world how it should be. But there's nothing alt-right about Balls Radio. And we try and have fun along the way.
