Dick Taylor is elated to get to choose the music on The Country.
Dick Taylor is elated to get to choose the music on The Country.
It's the whole show in one go! Today's show is brought to you by Dom Boy George and running man Dick Taylor.
Dick gets to choose the music today and there is an Olympic theme due to the Russians being in the news for all the wrong Olympic reasons.
Onwith the show. First up it's the man of the hour, Roving South Island Farming Ambassador Dick Taylor. He fills us in on an epic rugby tour he's leading in November, stalking the All Blacks around the USA and Europe...wait, following...not stalking.
Dom also has a Bledisloe cup junket...um...tour...coming up so him and Dick compare trips. Send Dom an email if you'd like to get some more information about these tours.
Next up is Labour's Primary Industry Spokesman Damien O'Connor who is in Nelson at the New Zealand groundspread association conference where he is a keynote speaker.
Today's panel is Jane Smith and Nadine Porter. They discuss the China trade issue; is it a war or are people making a mountain out of molehill?
It's not all doping and corruption in the Olympics these days and Dom has a feel-good story about swimming family, the Laings. Graeme Laing is carrying on his father Duncan's legacy by helping train New Zealand's swimming Olympic hopefuls this year.
Of course this jam-packed show is interspersed with the odd dig at Jamie Mackay as he's not here to defend himself.
