Radio The Sounding Board with Craig Hutchison & Damian Barrett (Podcast)

[Willo_]

Does anyone actually listen to Damo's dish? I mean i guess it could be good, I've never listened to a second of it.

I have no idea at all, I listen to the main show and all the other little offshoots Hutchy pops out to try fudge the podcast listen numbers get nuked as soon as i get a notification about them

 

[FrankDrebin]

Just finished listening to it.
Most episodes go for about 40 minutes, this one went for over 50.
Gee McGuire likes the sound of his own voice and opinions.
Damo should give back to Hutchy half his payment as he didn’t add much as McChins just kept talking.
Saying all that, I didn’t mind it as a one off, the history of how broke the TV networks were in the 80’s and 90’s was interesting.

Think Damo's role was to cut Ed off or at least try and get him back on track before his war stories got to the point where he was standing on the terraces at Victoria Park in the 70s when....

I've accidentally heard bits of it on Player FM when the "main body" podcast finishes and automatically runs into the previous week's 'Dish'. I think Damo tries to make it funny, and Hutchy fake laughs through it

It was a bit like that wasn’t it.

Same here.
Hutchy asked Damo where do you buy Lemon zest.

 

[OhDustinMartin]

Actually found Eddie going on for 10 minutes at a time really interesting.
The chat about production companies, networks and where things are going was excellent.

Did Eddie eventually answer the question about where free-to-air tv will be in the coming years?

 

[reubski23]

Damo is like an average actor who serendipitously found himself in a smash hit movie: despite their averageness, they'll keep being cast in all the sequels, because the producers won’t risk tampering with a successful formula

Brilliant

Weirdly found himself on very succesful
Shows always as the 5th wheel

I’m starting to think Damo and Hutchy have travelled to New York together previously. Not sure if they’ve mentioned it

How's Damo mentioning "that famous time we rode Jetskis" when talking about something that happened between him, Hutchy and Pickers... goodness me

I always find it strange when people in the media like these guys particularly Damo 1) continually mention something like this but never expand on it but more importantly
2) Damo always seems to go 'oh we better not talk about that' or something of that nature. I just wonder what exactly it was they did over there that's so interesting and not appropriate to tell the audience. Were they doing blow? Cheating on their spouses? Getting completely shitfaced? Strippers? Or just sitting in the corner at a bar/nightclub?

Cocaine. A lot of cocaine.

No wonder Hutchy is such a fat campaigner when he won’t walk to his terminal at a big airport without hitching a ride on the trolley.

 

[hilly]

Damo sure does whinge a lot for a bloke being well paid to talk rubbish about AFL.

Faking an injury to get around a terminal.

I've been to a fair few US airports, the distance isn't that bad.

He would be the kind of bloke to get a wheelchair at Disneyland to skip the lines.

 

[JohnZ]

So is gerrard going to ch7?

 

[Uncle_Leo]

Almost unlistenable now

Damo repeating same garbage over and over and Craig talking in riddles every episode

 

[offtherails9]

Damo really is an unknowledgeable loser who always has an agenda and is extremely pessimistic. Absolute fool.

I agree, I really enjoy it but they have to do away with the arguing and disclaimers. The other day they spent what seemed like an eternity on Caro moving to Seven without adding any opinion.

I get why Hutchy didn't want to but they need to move on quickly.

 

[jazzee]

I finished up regularly listening last year, briefly went back to listen to the Robbo fallout and was underwhelmed. Shame.

Purple is such a sook, too much of a sore loser to even acknowledge Robbo and the way he kept carrying on about how he never ever watched the show and would go out of his way to turn it off I found pretty pathetic

 

[tandino]

What's the Damo - Robbo origin story anyway?

Was it just a fight over the Chief job at the HS?

Bloke has got to be the singularly most unlikeable person in media. Possibly ever.

I'm not exactly Damo's number one fan, but I like the way he calls out Hutchy's bullsh1t, or at least tries to

I'd agree with that, and I still do really enjoy the pod and listen religiously each week... Damo is just so incredibly thin skinned though.. The glass jaw award should be named after him
