WKRP Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Thought it was a very interesting programme, but like gettafe says above to use the advocate firm who are one of the main sponsors on the station does leave some doubt as why they where invited and not another firm. This has the fingerprints of the sales department all over it but, as I said I liked the new format, BTW the producer, the daughter of sitting MLC, did the booking I guess, so not Mr Wint issue.

Stu Peters Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 I listened to the programme - I don't think either of the guests touted their firms, although one was prompted to plug his book. Why wouldn't you invite a 'known' expert on? As usual, nothing to see, no conspiracy, move on. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gettafa Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) .No conspiracy but I am sure the main sponsors of the former Morning Mandate were pleased to have some extra coverage. I think the Andy Wint/Mannin Line day time crowd is schoolies these days, so there may be some work in the future for the advocates.

Holte End Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) Has nobody been on a cruise ship where the bar and casino shut when in territorial waters like canada and hawaii. I have never been on a cruise to the caribbean, as I always said if I want to see poverty I just drive round Ramsey.

If the law is not clear, or not being followed by the ships, then yes, get it cleared up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That must be the shortest 12 miles on the planet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't the only reason the racket don't serve until 12 miles out because they're to tight fisted to have a DO on board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
