In a recent episode of The Sounding Board podcast Hutchy and Damien Barrett discussed a big blow up they had following 'that' infamous Queen's Birthday incident with Eddie Mcguire  last year. Caro was an integral part of that conversation, so we've given her the right of reply in this bonus episode of Don't Shoot The Messenger.

So much to talk about this week - from the Logies moving locations to Collingwood's silence on the racism issue.

Corrie previews Richard Flanagan's new novel and Caro gives us an insight into a very interesting afternoon at the NGV. There's some great recommendations in BSF and Corrie has a Grumpy Old Women moment we can all relate to.
