Editor reviews
Mike McColl Jones is the brains behind many of Australia's talk shows. For decades he's written lines for celebrity hosts like Steve Vizard and Graham Kennedy. In And Now Here's…, Jones examines the history of these shows from his personal experience. With actor Mark Mitchell at the helm, this audiobook isn't just any old walk down memory lane. It's an engaging look at Australia's love affair with the big personalities who tuck the country in every night. Mitchell's voice is intelligent and sturdy. American audiences will be glad that Mitchell balances his strong Australian accent with clear enunciation.
