This week on The Sporting Probe with Rampaging Roy Slaven and HG Nelson the joy of the annual, top-rating Mother’s Day Special is tempered by Australia’s Eurovision heartbreak.

And Australia’s greatest and most fearless commentators don’t hold back when it comes to calling out the man responsible for Jessica Mauboy’s poor showing – Federal Arts Minister Mitch Fifield.

Also copping a massive spray is Treasurer Scott Morrison for failing to announce funding for a Eurovision Centre of Excellence in the Budget.

Some people ask, How did Roy and HG become Australia’s finest broadcasters? What sets them so far ahead of the likes of Neil Mitchell or Ray Hadley or John Laws?

Well, listening to this week’s The Sporting Probe podcast reveals two of the key attributes that make them the best – they are unafraid of controversy and they have vision.

For example, this week Roy and HG fearlessly call for Anzac Day to be moved to coincide with the AFL Grand Final – it’s a big call, a brave call but it’s also the right call for the Diggers and for footy fans.

Want to discover who killed football in Tasmania? Or why Roy and HG don’t call Rugby League games anymore? Or, who is the most disliked man in Rugby League? (Hint: it’s not Jarryd Hayne.)

Plus there’s tips on how to always win betting on tennis, exclusive news on the upcoming Olivia Newton John bio-pic and what sparked the war of words between Wayne ‘The Duck’ Carey and Toby ‘Grub of the Year’ Green.

And if the A-League Melbourne v Sydney semi-final wasn’t controversial enough wait till you hear Roy and HG unpack their thoughts. Goal!

Question: If a meteor drops from the sky and wipes out a Commonwealth Games athlete’s family should officials (a) tell the athlete or (b) stay quiet and allow the athlete to focus on their event?

This very complex issue is just one of the many points raised by Rampaging Roy Slaven and HG Nelson during their wide-ranging Commonwealth Games post-mortem in this week’s riveting podcast.

Showing yet again why they are Australia’s best broadcasters, Roy and HG forensically examine the evidence to solve the crimes committed by other commentators (hint: criticizing the Commie Games closing ceremony is dangerously close to treason.)

Also to be found in this action-packed podcast is Roy and HG’s new design for the Socceroos jersey (hint: think eucalyptus green and an electric yellow lightning bolt) plus a new Commonwealth Games event involving a canoe and a coconut (hint: you throw the canoe.)

Once again listener discretion is advised as this episode of The Sporting Probe contains further descriptions of Hell that are harrowing, blood-curdling and once heard can never be forgotten.

How will you cope with life now the greatest games of all have finished? What will fill those empty hours where once there was nothing but 24-hour TV coverage of Aussie athletes winning Commonwealth Games gold, gold, gold on the Gold Coast?

Can the void be filled? Is there some way you can still experience the giddy high of Australia beating the world?

Well, yes, help is at hand thanks to the finest broadcasters in the history of Australian radio.

Simply download this podcast of The Sporting Probe and let Rampaging Roy Slaven and HG Nelson guide you through the wilderness that now stretches from here to Birmingham in 2022 when Aussie pride will reign once again.

Relive the glory of the Games over and over and over again plus discover the innovations Channel 7 will bring to their cricket coverage (hint: lots of player’s parents will be wired for sound) and who will join their on air team of commentators (hint: Home and Away and My Kitchen Rules will play big roles.)

A warning to the faint-hearted, this Sporting Probe does contain a very disturbing depiction of Hell – parental guidance suggested.

What reduced HG Nelson to rubble during this set of seven?

Why were his slacks down around his ankles?

Why was the sloop pointing north?

Was it (a) the Sporting Probe’s call for Daryl Somers to host the Footy Show? (b) news of Michael Clarke’s bid to return as captain of Australia’s Test team? (c) the dancer chucking a brown eye at the Prince of Wales during the Commie Games opening ceremony? (d) Delta Goodrem singing ‘Go You Good Thing’ during the opening ceremony?

Or (e) all of the above.

Probesters, punters, pilgrims and patriots will discover the correct answer in this gold-plated Commonwealth Games Sporting Probe special. Ready, set, go!

Australia’s baggy green shame could become a massive win for one lucky listener if Roy and HG can pull off the greatest piece of cricket memorabilia.

Picture it proudly hanging in your house: three baggy green caps and one small piece of sandpaper.

Tastefully framed, of course, and worth a fortune, especially when Smith, Bancroft and Warner add their autographs.

Licking your lips in anticipation? The Sporting Probe is negotiating the deal so stay tuned.

Plus, what sparked this from Rampaging Roy Slaven: “I have never heard of a more gutless act in all my years of broadcasting on Australian radio.”

You can only find out here plus revelations on the worst training camp horror, sledging advice for kids and why some might think Swedes are sickos (Hint: involves blue-bottles and bathtubs.)

On the day of Australia’s greatest shame Roy and HG bravely set up the card table to grapple with the unholy scandal of our Test team tampering with the cricket ball.

In a courageous display of patriotism, The Sporting Probe faced up to all the tough questions:

Who are the clowns in the Test team’s leadership group?

Was Boof Lehmann involved?

Are all Australians forever to be branded as cheats? (Hint: sob.)

Should Steve Smith resign?

Is this a hanging offence?

Would Bradman have ever done it? (Hint: you’ll be shocked.)

Plus you’ll discover what the flaming heck is a ‘Lightburn Zeta’ and what it has to do with Melbourne’s Formula One event and how The Mouth Ulcers could be the saviours of Tassie AFL.

This may be Australia’s darkest day ever but there is one bonus – it produced a classic performance from the finest broadcasters in this once proud land. Sob!
